Welcome
to
the
Bellevue
regular
city
council
meeting
for
December
12
2022
city
clerk,
could
you
call
the
roll
please.
D
A
B
Yes,
there
are
12
speakers
pre-registered
this
evening.
A
couple
of
those
are
over
our
rules,
so
I'll
go
over
the
rules
really
quickly.
Oral
Communications
is
to
last
for
a
period
of
no
longer
than
30
minutes,
and
each
speaker
will
be
allowed
to
speak
up
to
three
minutes,
and
only
three
speakers
will
be
allowed
to
speak
to
any
one
side
of
a
particular
topic
looks
like
land
use
code
amendments
the
higher
floor
area
ratio
does
have
four
speakers
signed
up
in
support,
so
the
fourth
speaker
will
not
be
allowed.
E
Good
evening
hi,
mayor
Robinson
and
council
members,
my
name
is
Jody
Alberts
and
I'm,
head
of
the
government
Affairs
for
the
Bellevue
Chamber
of
Commerce
I
appreciate
the
opportunity
to
speak
on
tonight's
study
session
items,
particularly
the
far
land
use
code
Amendment
these
past
several
months,
I've
witnessed
firsthand
the
exhaustive
efforts
by
Council
and
City
staff
in
getting
a
housing
affordability
right
in
Bellevue,
based
off
the
materials
that
were
provided
for
today's
council
meeting
on
behalf
of
the
chamber.
I
must
say
that
I
am
confident
that
we
are
headed
in
the
right
direction.
E
I
hope
that,
by
moving
forward
with
determination,
we
may
be
able
to
discuss
priorities
such
as
reconsidering
far
zoning
in
Bel,
Red
and
phase
two,
which
is
ample
areas
for
opportunity.
If
higher
fars
can
be
fully
utilized,
the
chambers
plush
committee
remains
committed
to
working
with
Council
and
with
staff
to
improve
housing,
affordability
and
attainability
in
a
sustainable
manner.
We
hope
to
continue
to
remain
a
resource
at
the
city's
disposal,
as
these
incentive
programs
are
created
or
as
a
fee
and
Luke
calibrations
are
determined
again.
E
B
Mr
Simpson,
if
you're
joining
us,
if
you
could
use
the
raised
hand
function
to
identify
yourself.
Thank
you.
Okay,
can
you
hear
us
now.
F
F
Hi
I'm
Jesse
Simpson
government
relations
and
policy
manager
for
the
Housing
Development
Consortium
HDC
convenes,
the
East
Side,
affordable
housing
Coalition,
which
includes
more
than
35
housing
providers,
service,
community
service
providers,
housing
Advocates
and
other
Allied
organizations
across
the
east
side.
We
appreciate
the
city
of
bellevue's
efforts
to
analyze,
effective
policy
solutions
to
advance
housing,
affordability
and
our
committee
committed
to
partnering
with
you
to
meet
the
housing
needs
of
our
neighbors
and
significantly
increase
the
number
of
affordable
homes
available
to
Bellevue
residence.
F
Making
a
meaningful
dent
in
the
housing
affordability
crisis
will
take
many
policies,
including
those
that
directly
reduce
the
cost
of
producing
affordable
units.
I
appreciate
your
efforts
to
reduce
fees
for
affordable
housing
projects
and
applaud
Bellevue
from
exploring
this
policy
and
urge
Council
to
move
it
forward.
That
said,
we
feel
more
needs
to
be
done
with
the
current
proposed
approach
to
increase
allowed
residential
floor
area
ratio.
F
We
see
this
increase
to
allowable
far
as
a
great
opportunity
to
address
bellevue's
basic
jobs
to
home
imbalance,
but
we
must
incorporate
strong
affordability
requirements
alongside
this
increase
to
development
capacity,
when
cities
increase
development
capacity
through
up
zones,
a
portion
of
that
increased
value
can
be
captured
for
public
benefit.
Pairing
mandatory
inclusionary
zoning
with
increases
to
development
capacity,
such
as
an
increase
to
allowable
far
offsets
the
cost
of
that
affordability
requirement
and
captures
some
of
the
added
value
for
public
benefit.
F
Pairing
affordability,
requirements
with
upsons
leverages
the
potential
private
real
estate
development
produces
more
affordable
homes
and
creates
mixed
income
communities.
The
flip
side
of
all
this
is
that
if
an
affordability
requirement
is
not
implemented
at
the
time
of
the
up
Zone
future
efforts
will
be
less
fruitful
and
the
opportunity
to
capture
that
public
benefit
is
lost.
Finally,
I
understand
that
others
at
the
East
Side
housing
Roundtable,
have
testified
to
the
importance
of
reforming
development
standards
like
increasing
floor
plate,
maximums
and
lot
coverage
ratios
and
reducing
setbacks
and
setbacks.
B
G
Now
I
can
hear
you.
Thank
you
perfect.
Thank
you.
Thank
you
very
much.
Jeremy
council
members,
Jack
McCullough
here
nice
to
have
an
opportunity
to
speak
to
you.
Unfortunately,
not
personally
I
just
wanted
to
put
in
a
vote
for
moving
expeditiously
on
phase
one
of
the
of
the
downtown
measures
and
interim
control.
One
of
the
words
that
we've
talked
about
last
many
years
here
at
council
is
nimble
and
we
have
an
opportunity
to
to
exercise
that
today
we're
at
an
inflection
point
in
the
market,
as
many
of
you
have
seen.
G
G
This
unique
opportunity,
with
many
projects
in
the
city
to
to
try
to
provide
some
incentives
in
the
immediate
term
to
have
these
projects
pivot
from
an
office
kind
of
program
to
a
residential
program,
we're
working
with
several
of
these
now
in
downtown
as
well,
and
the
opportunity
that
will
be
presented
by
the
phase
one
program
if
it's
implemented,
hopefully
in
the
first
quarter
of
2023
as
an
Implement
as
an
interim
control,
will
really
I
think
accelerate
this
effort.
I
want
to
congratulate
and
thank
staff.
G
We've
been
working
closely
with
on
these
measures.
We
think
they're.
The
concept
is
well
tailored
to
be
very
attractive
to
several
of
these
projects,
that
can
add,
potentially
several
hundred
units
of
new
housing
downtown.
So,
while
there
are
larger
picture
issues
to
deal
with
in
phase
two,
we
really
encourage
you
to
move
phase
one
along
as
an
interim
control
and
do
it
if
possible
in
the
first
quarter
of
2023..
Thank
you
very
much.
H
H
The
agenda
memo
for
item
22782
on
your
agenda
this
evening.
The
direction
recommended
by
staff
seeks
to
amend
the
land
use
code
to
increase
housing
over
commercial
development
without
addressing
the
priority
to
include
affordable
housing,
affordable
to
low
and
moderate
income
families
as
part
of
the
land
use
code
Amendment.
H
All
housing
is
Affordable
to
someone,
but
housing
that
is
Affordable
to
families
willing
to
pay
five
thousand
dollars
or
ten
thousand
a
month
for
rent
or
mortgage
payment
is
not
considered
affordable,
housing
in
Bellevue
right
now,
thousands
of
units
are
being
built
for
families
earning
more
than
a
hundred
twenty
thousand
dollars
per
year.
We
do
not
need
to
provide
increases
to
height
and
development
capacity
just
to
incentivize
development
of
housing,
affordable
to
the
most
affluent
members
of
our
community.
H
The
direction
to
staff
should
include
language
that
prioritizes
incentivizes,
the
development
of
housing,
affordable
to
low
and
moderate
income
families.
As
Jack
just
said,
the
intense
pressure
for
commercial
development
has
cooled
off.
Many
of
the
planned
office.
Developments
in
Bellevue
may
be
converted
to
housing.
This.
H
For
the
city
to
update
the
land
use
code
to
increase
the
housing
capacity
in
our
city
with
a
portion
of
the
new
development
capacity
dedicated
to
affordable
housing,
an
far
and
density
unit
per
acre
up
Zone,
when
done
in
tandem
with
affordable
requirement,
can
result
in
comprehensive
residential
housing
growth
and
benefits
for
all
citizens
across
all
income
levels.
Thank
you
for
your
time
this
evening,.
K
Hi
good
evening,
members
of
the
council,
my
name
is
Anthony:
walk
I
live
on
Southeast
42nd
Street
in
Bellevue
over
in
South
Bellevue
I'm,
calling
on
behalf
of
support
for
the
capital
investment
program
for
sewers
for
2023
to
2029
budget
systems
around
specifically
the
project
around
sub
section
s117.
K
This
is
specifically
around
the
extension
from
120th
Street
to
the
rest
of
the
communities
who
are
interested
in
joining
the
overall
sewer
system.
What
we
have
right
now
is
a
load,
a
story
from
my
neighbor
who's
been
a
40,
almost
40-year
resident
from
here
and
she's,
actually
busy
right
now,
working
at
the
Overlake
hospital.
K
K
In
her
personal
experience
and
she's
lived
here
since
the
1960s,
it's
been
she's,
never
gotten
a
chance
to
offer
to
connect
to
the
main
120th
line,
and
she
wanted
she's
wanted
to
see
if
we
were
being
overlooked
in
the
process.
In
her
situation,
she
shared
with
me
that
she's
been
able
unable
to
meet
her
needs
to
have
a
dishwasher
as
well
as
because
she
believes
her
own
personal
septic
tank
can't
handle
it.
K
She
is
looking
to
retire
very
soon
and
is
hopeful
to
be
able
to
add
a
second
bathroom
as
well
as
overcome
some
of
the
health
issues
in
the
area.
She's
heard
of
personal
stories
from
some
of
our
neighbors
who've
had
overloads
as
well
as
situations
where
they've
had
failing
situations
and
hope
that
we
can
prioritize
again
in
the
capital,
Improvement
program,
sub
project
s117.
K
In
my
own
personal
story,
my
family
and
I.
We
moved
here
and
had
a
recent
child
in
the
area
and
since
the
pandemic,
our
working
situation
that
has
now
all
of
us
actually
working
from
home
because
of
Just
The
Way
technology
works,
and
so
we
also
are
looking
forward
to
a
opportunity
to
join
the
subject,
move
from
septic
to
sewer.
So
we
can
expand
our
area
and
continue
to
flourish
into
build
the
area.
Thank.
B
Thank
you.
The
next
speaker
on
the
list
was
Clifford
coffin
and
unfortunately,
we've
already
heard
three
people
in
support
of
that
topic,
which
was
the
high
area
higher
floor
area
ratio.
So
I
would
encourage
you
to
email.
Your
comments
to
council
bellevuewa.gov,
going
on
to
the
next
speaker,
is
Craig
spiesel,
who
is
joining
us
virtually
Mr
spiesel.
Can
you
hear
me.
M
Good
evening
my
name
is
Craig
speasel
I
live
in
the
loch
laven
community
and
have
been
a
resident
of
Bellevue
for
over
eight
years.
I'm
speaking
tonight
regarding
the
status
of
the
career
management
plan
and
concerns
are
regarding
the
proposed
curb
pricing
and
its
impact
to
our
residential
neighborhoods.
M
First
I'd
like
to
acknowledge
to
thank
the
transportation
department
plan
department
and
the
Transportation
Commission
for
all
their
hard
work
and
this
plan,
as
they
have
identified
online
shopping,
ride,
hailing
employee
shuttles
and
delivery
services,
as
well
as
micro,
Mobility
providers
all
compete
for
limited,
curb
space
and
public
fundages.
Today,
the
lack
of
designated
loading
zones
creates
confusion
and
adds
to
the
traffic
congestion.
M
While
the
CMP
acknowledges
the
aggregate
impact
of
these
uses,
it
is
unclear
how
curb
pricing
will
solve
or
mitigate
them.
In
the
current
public
draft,
the
CMP
does
not
appear
to
address
the
unintended
consequences,
including
spillover
traffic
and
parking
and
adjacent
restricted
parking
zones.
Second,
it
is
also
unclear
how
curb
pricing
May
shift
demand
to
use
of
existing
free
neighborhood
parks,
which
are
often
at
full
capacity,
why?
M
The
comprehensive
plan
section
on
Transportation
acknowledges
the
need
for
these
neighborhood
protection
protections
TR
141
through
tr149
today
few,
if
any
of
these
recommendations
have
been
codified
or
provided
resources
for
protection
or
proactive
enforcement
further,
as
acknowledged
by
the
transportation
department,
the
price
and
Analysis
provided
to
you
needs
further
review.
As
stated
in
October.
These
estimates
are
very
high
level
and
specific
Park
and
curve.
M
Management
program
proposal
is
outside
the
scope
of
the
career
management
plan
effort
I,
encourage
the
commission
and
the
traffic
departments
to
refine
the
planning
and
forecast
to
account
for
these
issues
and
related
costs,
including
rpz
Park
enforcement.
Second
I
suggest
further
exploration
is
needed
in
the
creation
of
Rideshare
drop-off
zones,
as
well
as
designated
hours
for
merchants
and
restaurants,
to
help
reduce
congestion
and
third
I
request,
more
granular
data
to
be
provided
to
the
community
for
review.
M
I
look
forward
to
working
with
the
transportation
department,
the
Transportation,
Commission
and
other
stakeholders
towards
these
goals,
enhancing
the
livability
and
the
vibrancy
of
our
city
and
its
neighborhoods
and
I
also
would
like
to
personally
thank
all
the
council
members
for
all
their
hard
work
over
this
past
year.
Thank
you
very
much.
N
Pamela
Johnson
37,
30,
37,
41,
122nd,
Avenue,
Northeast
I
want
to
start
out
by
talking
about
bellevue's
housing
goals,
I'm
very
thankful
that
we
have
seven
neighborhood
engagement
experts
in
front
of
me
tonight.
N
One
of
the
things
that
we
look
at
is
things
that
come
from
staff,
but
I
look
at
the
things
that
come
from
Council,
because
no
matter
what
happens
in
the
next
years,
you're
going
to
be
the
ones
making
the
final
decision
and
you're
the
ones
that
got
out
look
for
vote
and
look
for
what
is
what
we
really
need
in
this
community
I.
Don't
understand
why
our
Council
vision
under
the
housing
goals
is
a
lot
about
what
King
County
wants
and
under
the
council
Vision
it's
we
celebrate
our
aspects
of
our
culture.
N
N
There's
something
strange
about?
What's
going
on
because
the
what
I
understand
is
this
Bellevue
is
made
up
of
Rose
corridors
and
older
neighborhoods
and
people
who
came
in
here
and
built
their
neighborhoods
came
and
lived
in
their
house.
Since
1968-69
late
came
for
a
specific
neighborhood
Now
new
people
are
coming
into
the
into
the
community.
N
N
So
that's
a
challenge
in
the
growth
corridors
when
we're
asked
where
to
put
the
housing
where
where
but
don't
put
it
in
the
growth
corridors,
when
we're
told
that
we
need
to
put
in
35
000
new
homes
that
we're
told
oh,
but
that
we're
not
that
don't
count.
Wilburton
Epson,
don't
count
Factoria
op
zone.
So
we
can't
look
at
those.
We
need
to
put
35
000
elsewhere.
B
At
this
point,
we
have
heard
from
Clifford
coffin
and
he
has
signed
up
actually
in
opposition
or
has
concerns,
so
that
was
just
an
incorrect
registration,
so
I
am
going
to
call
his
name
now
Mr
coffin.
Can
you
hear
me.
L
Excellent,
so
my
apologies
for
the
mix-up.
L
My
name
is
Cliff
cauthon
I'm,
the
FC
and
policy
manager
for
Habitat
for
Humanity,
Seattle,
King,
kids,
County
and
we're
one
of
the
founding
partners
of
the
East
Side,
affordable,
housing,
Coalition
a
long
time
permanent,
affordable
housing
developer
in
King
County,
and
particularly
in
Bellevue,
and
around
the
east
side,
and
first
of
all,
I
want
to
thank
the
council
for
its
work
tonight.
L
The
need
of
for
affordable
housing
for
a
lower
income
and
middle
income.
Households
is
great
and
it's
growing
even
greater
every
single
day.
But
we
have
an
amazing
opportunity
right
here
and
make
sure
everyone
has
a
safe
and
affordable
housing
to
live
as
cheesy.
As
might
as
that,
might
sound
that's
the
reality.
L
We
know
we
have
an
affordable
housing
crisis
when
we
can
either
hit
guest
slam
dunk
where
you
can
miss
the
Mark,
and
we
do
applaud
the
city
for
exploring
reducing,
permitting
fees
for
affordable
housing
projects,
and
we
urge
Council
to
move
forward
with
not
to
set,
but
also
Boulder
Vision,
by
adding
affordability
measures
to
increases
in
residential
floor
area
ratio
allowances.
Adding
density,
though,
through
an
increase
of
residential,
far,
is
a
necessary
step
in
the
right
direction,
but
on
its
own,
it's
not
sufficient
to
effectively
address
affordable
housing
needs.
L
The
importance
of
affordable
housing
requirement
to
any
change
that
increases
development
capacity
cannot
be
understated,
and
if
that
affordability
isn't
in
place
for
an
up
zone
or
for
another
development
capacity
increase
of
that
sword,
then
we
would
not
just
lose
an
opportunity
to
capture
the
public
benefit
of
being
able
to
harness
the
market
to
build
more
affordable
housing.
But
we
may
also
do
harm
to
those
who
are
most
vulnerable
to
the
housing
crisis,
particularly
those
essential
workers,
like
nurses
and
firefighters
and
teachers
who
we
depended
on
during
the
pandemic,
to
get
us
through.
L
So
if
affordability
isn't
in
place
a
time
of
these
up
zones
and
it
increases
for
in
increases
floor
area
ratio,
then
we're
doing
ourselves
disservice
and
the
data
is
clear,
then
mandatory
inclusionary
zoning
is
more
effective
in
producing
affordable
homes
than
simply
voluntary
policies
or
incentives.
In
fact,
about
the
past.
L
So
I'll
just
wrap
this
up
by
saying
Bellevue
in
the
passes
Institute
this
and
was
able
to
produce
a
sizable
amount
of
affordable
housing
and,
more
importantly,
this
can
also
reduce
economic
and
social
segregation
in
the
city
as
well,
and
make
sure
that
we
can
put
people
in
areas
of
Economic
Opportunity
and
create
a
more
inclusive
environment
for
everyone
and
there's
an
agreement
that
development
standards.
L
B
J
Okay,
great
thank
you.
Hi
council
members,
I
am
a
Bellevue
resident.
My
family
and
I
currently
live
on
Southeast
42nd
Street
in
Greenwich
Crest
and,
as
you
heard
from
my
neighbor
Mr
Anthony
Locke,
just
earlier
I'm
here
to
talk
about
moving
to
approve
the
proposal
on
under
the
capital
investment
program
for
the
septic
system
to
sewer
extension.
J
Additionally,
our
septic
systems
are
old
and
the
capacity
isn't
there
for
adding
more
bathrooms
and
Water
Services
as
it
is
specifically
for
our
particular
home.
We
can
only
run
one
water
Appliance
at
a
time
without
losing
significant
pressure
on
the
other.
We've
also
had
backups
from
the
toilet
into
our
shower
that
we've
privately
paid
to
get
fixed.
J
This
is
causing
an
extreme
hardship
and
an
undue
burden
on
us
as
we
try
to
modernize
our
homes,
but
continue
to
be
kept
off-grid,
as
Anthony
had
mentioned,
another
neighbor
of
ours
Joyce,
who
has
been
here
for
almost
50
years
when
the
the
our
Main
Street
had
the
option
to
connect
to
the
Sewer
the
side
street
wasn't
given
the
option
to
do
so,
we're
one
of
the
only
ones
in
our
neighborhood
there's
multiple
side
streets
off
of
120
Avenue
that
have
all
been
hooked
up
to
the
Sewer
so
leaving
us
behind,
and
you
know,
causing
a
lot
of
issues
as
we
try
to
you
know,
continue
to
be
Bellevue
residents
and
obviously
invest
in
our
own
homes.
J
We've
been
talking
to
Doug
Lane,
as
well
as
Sean
Wells,
who
are
on
the
Bellevue
utility
planning
management
team
to
DEC
to
discuss
this
proposal,
but
obviously
we
need
the
council's
approval
of
the
budget
with
the
specific
focus
on
our
street.
That's
already
in
there
for
this
sewer
extension
in
order
to
move
this
forward.
So
we
hope
you're
able
to
you,
know,
meet
us
at
this
issue
and
hopefully
provide
some
relief
to
myself.
As
well
as
all
the
Neighbors
on
the
street,
so
thank
you
for
your
time
and
consideration.
B
O
Firstly,
the
resolution
does
not
provide
even
one
proper
ineligibility
reason
to
deny
a
property's
classification
as
open
space
land
under
RCW
84.34
that
states
open
space
land
means
any
land
area,
the
preservation
of
which
would
conserve
and
enhance
natural
resources.
There
are
no
exclusions
for
easements
in
the
law.
Instead,
the
resolution
denies
the
properties
classification
under
open
space
land
for
categories
we
never
claimed.
O
Secondly,
the
resolution
in
Section
1
part
1
claims
that
the
revenue
loss
of
443
dollars
per
year
from
this
property
would
be
a
huge
burden
on
the
city
of
bellevue's
2.2
billion
dollar
budget.
This
is
an
exaggeration.
The
truth
is
that
there
have
not
been,
and
there
will
likely
never
be
any
many
more
many
other
Bellevue
city
applicants
to
this
PVR
race
program.
Thirdly,
city
of
Bellevue
chose
to
assess
this
application
under
Washington
State's
RCW
8434,
when
our
application
was
to
King
County's
pbrs
program.
O
Such
a
switch
is
not
supported
in
the
laws
and
code
denying
our
pbrs
application
under
RCW
8434.
Does
not
extend
that
our
application
is
also
denied
under
pbrs,
as
specifically
required
fractioning
by
King
County's
pbrs
of
this
Bellevue
city
council.
The
pbrs
criteria
were
never
evaluated
by
the
city
of
Bellevue
towards
this
application.
O
Finally,
1450
King
County
households,
several
such
being
single-family
R1
properties
and
some
within
Bellevue
have
been
in
pbrs
Bellevue
city
council.
This
resolution
has
no
valid
pbrs
and
RCW
8434
ineligibility
reasons
to
support
this
denial.
Therefore,
this
denial
resolution
is
arbitrary,
capricious
and
discriminating
under
a
U.S
law.
Further
U.S
Congress
website,
with
our
constitution,
annotated
with
equal
protection
class
case
law
on
property
tax
rights.
O
There
must
be
no
discrimination
in
favor
of
one
as
against
another
of
the
same
class
from
Kini
versus
New
York
1912
tax
Commissioners
versus
Jackson
1931
and
an
owner
agreed
by
discrimination
is
entitled
to
have
his
assessment
reduced
to
the
common
level
from
Sioux
City
Bridge
versus
Dakota
County
in
1923
Bellevue
city
council.
Your
vote
denies
me
equal
protection
of
the
laws,
as
required
by
the
United
States
Constitution's
14th
Amendment
section
1.
I
have
contacted
the
United
States
government's
Department
of
justices
civil
rights
division
of
this
incident.
O
I
will
now
also
be
contacting
other
legislative
and
judicial
officials
officers
and
venues
for
requesting
a
review
of
this
denial
decision.
It
is
a
disappointment
that
a
simple
443
dollars
of
native
tree
and
planned
infusion
and
conservation
to
our
part
of
this
Earth
face
this
dormant
of
resistance
by
you,
Bellevue
city
council.
We
will
need
a
federal
approach
to
bring
in
some
reason
on
this
topic
as
all
efforts
by
your
own
Bellevue
city,
Administration,
King,
County
and
I
have
been
misunderstood
by
you.
Thank
you.
P
My
dirty
damn
Nazi
democracy,
fascists
criminal
in
bangita,
a
mafia,
my
name,
Alex
Zimmerman,
you're,
pure
Crook,
and
criminal
and
I.
Give
you
right
now
a
few
examples.
So
people
can
know
what
is
going
on
next
year
is
election,
so
I
demand.
What
is
everybody
who
will
go
for
election
will
post
to
be
in
Bellevue
dot
com,
you're
supposed
to
be
page?
What
is
open
to
everybody
who
go
for
election?
So
people
know
who
this
people
is
number
one
number
two.
You
need
stopping
this
10
30
minutes
and
10
people,
because
it's
pure
crook.
P
What
is
you
doing
six
years
ago?
Is
this
give
you
more
privilege
by
definition,
you
are
criminal.
It's
exactly
what's
happened!
All
of
you
number
three
last
week
console
John
stalker
present
and
Regan
now
console
it's
very
unique.
I!
Never
can
imagine
how
this
happened.
So
this
Regional
Council
last
week
make
decision
about
couple
dozen
million
dollars
taxes
and
no
public
hearing
he's
a
pure
criminal.
You
cannot
approve
taxes
without
public
hearing
any.
He
presented
this
meeting
for
many
years
in
for
last
seven
years.
You
know
what
this
mean
seven
months.
P
What
is
he
present
is
no
public
hearing.
It
is
all
about
taxes.
You
are
a
criminal,
you
are
a
bandeater,
it's
exactly.
What
is
I
speak
right
now:
250
000
people
who
live
in
Bellevue
when
you
clean
this
dirty
Chamber
from
this
band
Gita
from
this
Mafia
there's
only
one
chance
come
America
back
to
normal.
Is
this
exactly
what's
happened?
How
we
can
doing
this
I
demand
to
everybody?
Listen
to
everybody!
Go
for
election
for
23.,
more
people
will
become.
P
We
will
have
a
forum
every
two
weeks
or
every
month,
so
so
we
can
do
in
this
right
now
after
New
Year,
so
everybody
can
come
in
talking.
You
know
what
this
means.
It's
only
one
chance,
please
Chamber
from
this
criminal
from
this
bandita
who
is
in
this
chamber
for
30
years,
Soviet
Union,
police
Bureau,
who
sit
in
chamber
for
30
years.
It
won't
be
a
shame
Satan
chamber
for
30
years.
That's
exactly
what
is
when
you
do
it.
We
need
clean
this
chamber
totally,
no
more
than
two
years
two
times.
P
That's
it
in
commissioner
houses
for
two
times.
So
we
are
commissioner
Bellevue.
Commissioner
have
two
times,
and
you
don't
have
two
times
so
right
now:
I
speak
to
everybody
who
listen
to
me.
Stand
ups
150
000
idiots
per
Don,
stop
acting
like
an
idiot
cleanses,
the
dirty
chamber
in
23
totally.
What
is
as
possible
stand
up.
America
stand
up
is
exactly
only
one
chance
for
everybody.
Q
Good
evening
councilman
I
can't
hear
me:
can
you
hear
me?
Okay,
I
wish
to
meet
with
all
of
you
sometime
before
the
12th
of
January,
when
I
will
be
going
back
to
Jamaica
and
how
long
I'm
going
to
be
there.
I
can't
tell
you
because
it
depends
on
how
much
I
get
done
when
I'm
there,
and
as
soon
as
I,
get
back
I'm
planning
to
go
to
Kenya.
Q
At
the
time,
I
was
earning
5
000
a
year
and
my
husband,
a
Boeing
Employee
engineer,
was
earning
7
000
a
year
and
we
could
afford
a
25,
000
house,
I,
don't
think
even
Boeing
Engineers
can
afford
to
buy
a
house
in
Bellevue
anymore,
which
is
very
sad,
and
there
were
several
teachers
in
the
neighborhood.
We
couldn't
afford
a
house
on
Mercer
Island,
where
I
had
been
teaching
and
that's
why
we
moved
to
Bellevue.
Now
people
have
to
live
in
North
Bend
to
be
able
to,
and
even
there
things
are
too
expensive,
but
yeah.
Q
Q
We
paid
for
these
streets
a
long
time
ago
and
I
would
like
to
be
able
to
use
them,
and
it
makes
me
angry
when
a
whole
Lane
is
blocked
off,
because
somebody's
building,
a
building,
please
make
your
permits
so
that
any
traffic
that
has
to
do
with
bringing
in
cement
or
whatever
is
done
at
night.
Not
during
the
business
day
think
about
that
when
you're
issuing
permits
but
make
sure
that
any
money
that's
spent
by
the
City
for
mental
health
and
addiction
recovery
is
well
spent
that
that
you
know
sound.
Q
B
A
Great,
thank
you
glad.
We
got
everybody
squeezed
in
there.
Next
up
the
city
manager,
you
put
something
in
our
packet
on
the
comprehensive
plan,
periodic
update
in
Wilburton
Vision
implementation,
which
I
read
it's
very
interesting.
Thank
you
very
much
so
other
than
that.
You
have
no
presentation,
that's
correct!
Okay!
A
So
now
we
are
on
to
the
parks,
Levy
recognition,
which
I
wanted
to
give
council
member
John
Stokes
an
opportunity
to
speak
to.
R
All
right,
thank
you,
mayor.
It's
my
pleasure
tonight
to
talk
about
this.
You
know
at
the
end
of
November
King
County
election
certified
that
proposition
one,
the
Bellevue
Parks
Levy
passed
with
over
55
percent
of
the
vote
and
as
he
lays
onto
the
Parks
Board
and
a
former
member
of
the
Parks
Board,
along
with
the
mayor
back
in
2008,
we
passed
the
levy
which
has
really
made
the
city
much
much
more
livable
and
we're
progressing
forward
from
this.
R
R
The
levy
will
help
Bellevue
preserve
open
space,
add
parks
and
plan
for
a
new,
great
Aquatic,
Center
among
and
and
Recreation
and
sports
areas
and
trails
and
I
can
go
on
for
probably
another
five
minutes
on
that.
Among
several
priorities,
identifying
the
parks
and
open
space
system
plan
and
thank
you
to
the
people
who
championed
the
levy
and
built
support
for
it
to
pass,
including
the
Bellevue
Chamber
of
Commerce,
led
by
executive
director,
Joe
Fame.
R
Vice
president
government
Affairs,
Jody
Alberts,
director
of
communication,
Sam
Jones
and
Joe
woods
with
Pacific
public
affairs,
and
thank
you
very
much
to
the
members
of
the
pro
committee,
who
also
worked
on
the
pro-statement
of
the
voters.
Pamphlet,
Kevin,
Wallace,
Sherry,
rinlin
and
Giovanna
Harris,
and
also
worked
in
the
campaign
and
I'd
also
like
to
recognize
the
levy
campaign
committee
chair,
Dave
Hamilton,
who,
in
his
capacity
is
a
little
Bellevue
resident,
championed
the
parks
ballot
initiative
and
thanks
to
the
many
other
committee
members
who
helped
them
with
the
levy.
R
Also
Parks
and
Recreation
advocates
were
engaged
in
this
and
we're
excited
to
continue
our
efforts
to
improve
our
parks
and
open
space.
To
ensure
Bellevue
remains
a
great
community
and
Bellevue
will
continue
to
be
the
city
in
the
park.
So
thank
you
to
everybody.
Thank
you
to
the
public
and
to
really
the
whole
city
of
Bellevue
and
to
the
individuals
who
get
out
there
and
work
hard
to
make
these
things
happen.
So
thank
you.
Thank
you
very
much.
A
D
A
Those
in
favor
say
aye,
aye
aye
any
opposed;
okay
and
then
Deputy
Mayor.
You
have
two
appointment
recommendations
tonight,
I.
D
D
I
do
indeed
thank
you,
mayor,
it's
honor
to
bring
4-2
outstanding
individuals
that
call
Bellevue
home
to
serve
on
the
Human
Services
Commissions
tonight.
D
First,
one
is
akshi
Jane
who's,
an
immigrant
from
India
has
a
master's
degree
in
Actuarial
science
and
finance
and
was
the
first
ever
Miss
India
USA
in
2022,
which
launched
her
interest
in
work
around
many
non-profits
and
on
different
con
causes
around
Bellevue
and
the
east
side,
but
primarily
targeting
children's
well-being
and
education
and
supporting
women
in
our
community
and,
most
recently
devoting
a
lot
of
her
time
serving
the
homeless
through
am
powering.
D
The
second
individual
is
Chad.
Halstead
is
a
global
technology
consultant
for
multinational
corporations,
but
is
now
at
the
Department
of
Agriculture,
focused
on
Rural
Development,
helping
address
the
needs
of
black
indigenous
and
people
of
color
and
underserved
communities
with
affordable
housing,
internet
access
and
farming
Solutions.
It's
been
active
with
numerous
Regional
non-profits
since

his
family
to
Bellevue
eight
years
ago
and
he's
currently
on
the
board
of
directors
of
Eastside
Christian
School
in
Bellevue.
S
A
A
I
You
mayor,
thank
you,
mayor,
council
members.
The
first
topic
is
a
proposal
of
the
initiate
amendments
to
the
land
use
code
to
allow
higher
floor
area
ratio
or
density
for
certain
residential
uses
and
to
consider
tools
to
achieve
affordable
housing.
With
that
far
increase.
I
Tonight's
staff
is
seeking
Council
consideration
to
initiate
the
work,
to
bring
these
amendments
back
at
a
future
council
meeting
my
way
of
background
in
July
of
this
year,
Council
prioritize
three
next
right:
work:
actions
to
further
increase
housing
production
as
well
as
affordable
housing
opportunities
in
the
city,
and
this
item
is
one
of
those
three
actions
so
joining
us.
This
evening
is
listed.
Our
co-director
and
our
development
services
department,
she's,
joined
by
Nick
Whipple,
is
the
planning
manager
and
Matthew
Menard
senior
planner.
S
Mayor
Robinson,
Deputy
Mayor
new
in-house
we're
happy
to
be
here
tonight
with
some
exciting
projects.
We
have
two
for
this
evening,
but
we'll
start
tonight
first
with
the
allowance
of
higher
far
for
residential
projects.
This
is
something
that
you
may
remember
came
out
of
the
work
that
we
were
directed
to
move
forward
with
from
next
right
work,
and
so
it's
we
keep
peeling
away
at
these
projects,
and
this
is
the
one
for
tonight.
S
This
is
also
an
opportunity
that
I
want
to
make
sure
everyone's
aware
of
you
did
hear
this
during
City
during
the
public
testimony
or
the
comments
this
evening,
a
lot
about
an
opportunity
to
use
any
sort
of
increased,
far
to
actually
get
back
a
public
benefit
in
the
form
of
affordable
housing
and
if
you'll
remember,
I
was
here
on
November
14th
with
director
cotterman
and
Emil
King.
We
talked
about
some
of
the
tools
that
are
available
and
this
is
exactly
what
we
were
kind
of
setting.
S
The
conversation
up
for
is
this
opportunity
that
we
have
to
tie
increased
density
to
affordable
housing.
So
it's
a
great
opportunity
that
we're
looking
forward
to
explore
further
with
all
of
you,
you
will
see
that
we
have
broken
this
project
into
two
phases.
One
includes
an
interim
official
control
which
will
allow
us
to
move
more
quickly
on
some
of
the
downtown
work
for
those
projects
that
are
ready
for
application.
S
So
we
can
take
advantage
of
a
unique
Moment
In
Time
time
and
get
some
projects
on
the
ground
running
quickly
and
get
that
benefit
back
as
well,
so
I'm
going
to
go
ahead
and
pass
this
on
to
Nick
Whipple,
who
will
be
doing
our
PowerPoint
presentation
along
with
Matthew
Menard,
who
he
will
pass
on
to
shortly.
Thank
you.
T
So
for
tonight's
presentation
we
wanted
to
provide
some
context
and
background
in
terms
of
where
this
project
is
coming
from.
We'll
also
talk
about
the
objectives
that
we
are
aiming
to
achieve
here.
With
this
land
use
code,
Amendment
and
as
Liz
mentioned,
we've
broken
this
up
into
two
phases,
so
we'll
walk
through
phase
one
and
the
approach
there
and
timing
and
then
phase
two
as
well
and
then
how
those
two
phases
work
together
with
an
overall
timeline,
so
to
start
us
out
with
some
of
the
context.
T
So
as
as
noted
in
public
comment
earlier
there,
there
is
a
current
market
preference
for
office
development
in
Bellevue,
which
is
it's
beginning
to
cool.
But
we
have
seen
quite
a
surge
in
office
development
over
residential
development
in
particular,
and
we
are
in
need
of
more
housing,
so
we
are
in
the
process
with
the
the
comp
plan,
periodic
update
of
planning
for
35,
000
or
more
housing
units
within
the
2019
to
2044
planning
period.
That
process
is
also
evaluating.
You
know
how
that
might
be
added.
T
This
effort
is
a
good
opportunity
to
look
at
increases
in
floor
area
ratios
for
residential
development
to
help
kind
of
tip
the
the
scales
as
it
were,
on
those
mixed-use
properties
where
office
is
competing
with
residential
development.
This
also
provides
an
opportunity
for
us
to
boost
affordable
housing
Supply
any
opportunity
when
you
are
providing
an
increase
in
density.
Is
that
right
time
to
take
a
look
at
what
affordability
tools
you
might
be
able
to
implement
to
increase
the
supply
of
affordable
housing
in
the
city.
T
So
we
see
that
as
a
good
opportunity
here
with
this
effort
in
terms
of
background.
So
this
is
an
item
that
Council
selected
on
July
5th
as
a
part
of
the
next
right
work.
The
action
itself
was
to
allow
for
a
higher,
far
or
density
for
residential
to
incentivize
residential
development
over
commercial
developments.
T
This
action
tonight
is
also
responsive
to
the
affordable
housing
strategy,
action
D3,
which
does
call
for
the
city
to
change
its
approach
to
density
calculation
in
multi-family
zones
to
allow
more
flexibility
in
unit
size
and
type
so
you'll
see
as
part
of
this
scope.
We
are
looking
to
change
the
the
calculation
in
our
mixed
use
areas
so
we're
getting
away
from
or
aiming
to
get
away
from
a
dwelling
unit
per
acre
control
and
instead
use
the
same
density
control
that
commercial
development
uses,
which
is
the
floor
area
ratio.
T
So
for
objectives
we
are
looking
to
provide
more
or
an
increase
in
the
floor
area.
Ratio
for
residential
development
encourage
residential
development
by
making
it
more
economically
competitive
through
this
code,
Amendment
we're
also
looking
to
be
responsive
to
some
of
the
feedback
we've
been
hearing,
particularly
in
downtown
in
our
perimeter,
overlays,
where
there's
some
challenges
in
utilizing
the
full
density.
That's
provided
in
those
perimeter,
overlays
there's
some
some
form
constraints
that
are
kind
of
challenging
to
to
get
that
full
far
out.
U
Thanks
Nick,
as
Nick
mentioned,
we
are
breaking
this
into
two
phases
or
we're
proposing
to
break
it
into
two
phases.
I'll
begin
with
phase
one
phase,
one
is
narrowly
tailored
to
the
downtown
land
use
districts.
We
are
proposing
an
ioc
to
get
this
done
quickly,
as
Nick
mentioned,
to
allow
proposed
residential
projects
to
move
forward
also
to
use
downtown
as
a
as
a
test
ground,
essentially
for
phase
two.
So
we
can
make
sure
that
these
proposed
changes
are
meeting
our
goals
of
increasing
both
housing
and
affordable
housing
within
the
city.
U
The
proposed
amendments
to
the
land
use
code
would
be
increasing,
allowed
floor
area
ratio
throughout
downtown
updating
the
affordable
housing
exemption.
As
many
of
the
public
comments
noted,
this
is
an
opportunity
to
explore
those
tools
that
we
can
use
to
increase,
affordable
housing
throughout
downtown.
U
U
So
the
engagement
plan
for
downtown.
We
want
to
make
sure
we
engage
with
downtown
residents.
We
always
want
to
be
informing
the
public
and
making
sure
they're
aware
of
what's
happening
with
any
updates.
We
want
to
discuss
with
affordable
housing
developers
and
groups,
many
of
which
we
print
from
tonight
and
developers
to
make
sure
that
we
are
calibrating
this
properly
to
make
sure
we're
encouraging
both
housing
and
affordable
housing
production,
and
we
also
want
to
use
their
extensive
knowledge
to
make
sure
that
we're
hitting
those
marks.
As
we
do
move
forward
this
quite
quickly.
U
We're
not
going
to
have
time
to
do
substantial
studies
so
using
the
existing
knowledge
to
make
sure
that
we
we
get
it
right
and
then
we
do
want
to
utilize
online
engagement,
which
is
our
standard
process,
so
websites
to
make
sure
the
Public's
informed
again
some
direct
engagement
as
well
with
specific
stakeholders
downtown
and
then
small
group
sessions
with
those
some
existing
groups,
Chamber
of
Commerce
existing
Downtown
Association
groups
like
that
and
then,
when
we
come
back
for
the
study
session
for
the
ioc,
we
will
present
that
engagement
to
council.
U
So,
moving
on
to
the
process,
we
do
intend
to
bring
this
back
for
Council
review
in
a
study
session,
so
we
would
launch
tonight
and
then
come
back
for
a
study
session
and
then,
after
that
study
session,
move
towards
adoption
proposed
timeline
for
this
is
Q2
of
2023.
State
law
does
require
that
we
have
a
public
hearing
for
any
ioc
we
adopt
within
60
days
of
that
adoption.
U
Moving
on
to
phase
two
now
the
geographic
scope
is
targeted,
mixed
use
districts.
This
does
not
include
East
Maine,
which
has
recently
been
updated.
It
does
not
include
Wilburton,
which
has
ongoing
updates,
which
you
are
all
aware
of,
and
it
does
not
include
Bell
red,
which
also
has
the
ongoing
Bel
Red
look
forward.
U
U
Yeah
sorry
I
accidentally
hit
the
button
there.
Oh
we're
still
on
this
slide,
so
it
does
include
the
conversion
of
mixed
use,
districts
that
are
dwelling
units
per
acre,
so
there's
several
mixed-use
districts
that
utilize
dwelling
units
per
acre
to
limit
density,
converting
those
to
far
just
for
consistency
with
other
mixed-use
districts
in
the
land
use
code.
It
does
propose
creating
or
updating,
affordable
housing
programs
within
those
again
where
you're
trying
to
encourage
or
require
affordable
housing
for
the
utilization
of
these
bonus
programs.
U
So
as
we
allow
for
more
far
requiring
that
as
developers
want
to
use
that
far
that
they
have
to
provide
affordable
housing
would
that
increase?
We
are
intending
to
retain
form
standards
as
much
as
possible
to
make
sure
that
the
aesthetic
impacts
on
the
community
are
minimized,
and
that
was
the
original
scope
presented
to
you
on
July
5th,
and
the
final
item
of
phase
two
is
to
adopt
permanent
regulations
from
what
we've
learned
through
the
ioc.
So
that
would
include
those
downtown
regulations.
U
U
What's
our
best
approach
to
to
the
more
affordable
housing
aspect
of
this
update
working
internally,
to
make
sure
that
we
fully
understand
implications
to
administration
of
our
code
and
implications
to
any
sort
of
Urban
Design
changes
we
may
need
to
make
through
the
form
standards
and
then
having
having
regularly
scheduled
meetings
with
existing
groups.
So
they
are
kept
updated
throughout
this
process
and
they're.
U
Two
launching
tonight
there'll
be
a
lot
of
background
work,
but
phase
two
does
rely
on
the
final
Eis
for
the
comp
plan.
Periodic
update
release
so
we'll
do
background
work
until
that
is
released
and
then
starting
the
Planning
Commission
process
for
phase
two,
which
will
follow
our
standard
Luca
process,
so
we'll
go
through
Planning
Commission
and
come
back
to
council
as
well.
That
is
expected
to
be
completed
by
the
end
of
quarter.
One
of
2024
and
with
that
I
will
hand
it
back
to
Liz
for
completion
and
wrap-up
of
this
Luca.
S
One
of
the
things
that
we
are,
you
might
have
noticed
we're
trying
out
this
ioc
as
a
test,
so
we
can
try
some
of
these
things
on
and
be
Innovative
and
then
come
back
with
the
permanent
regulations
and
put
things
into
the
code.
So
it's
a
little
bit
different
than
maybe
how
we've
approach
approach
some
other
things
in
the
past,
but
I
think
it
gives
us
a
more
flexibility
and
more
ability
to
just
move
on
some
things
and
get
get
things
moving
forward
quickly.
S
So
we're
excited
about
that
so
tonight
we're
here
to
ask
you
to
provide
initiation
and
provide
us
Direction
and
some
I'll
be
taking
some
notes
and,
at
the
end,
I'll
make
sure
that
we've
gathered
all
of
your
direction
in
one
piece,
but
to
start
the
work
on
the
interim
land
use
code,
Amendment
and
then
also
the
permanent
phase
II
code
amendments
to
increase
the
higher
far
throughout
the
city
in
you
know
the
mixed-use
locations.
So
with
that
I'll
turn
it
back
to
you
mayor.
Thank
you.
Okay,.
A
Thank
you
very
much.
You
know
what
I'm
gonna
indulge
myself
and
start
because
I
don't
usually
do
that.
But
this
is
such
an
opportunity.
I
mean
I
pushed
for
affordable
housing
to
be
in
our
downtown
livability.
That
didn't
happen.
I
pushed
for
it
to
happen
when
we
up
zoned
our
entire
downtown,
and
it
didn't
happen
then,
and
now
I
feel,
like
maybe
tonight's,
my
night,
or
at
least
when
we
finally
vote
this
in
so
I
would
like
to
see.
Can
we
require
affordable
housing
or
for
any
residential
development?
A
And
can
we
require
a
fee
and
Lou
to
go
towards
affordable
housing
for
any
residential
I
mean?
Excuse
me
any
commercial
development,
so
that
would
be
for
the
phase
one
and
then
for
the
phase
two.
You
know
when
we've
increased
far
or
Heights
in
the
past
we've
it's
followed
with
a
very
strong
development
boom
and
I.
Look
at
I.
Think
old
Bellevue
is
included
in
this
multi-use
district
for
phase
two
and
I.
Do
we
have
any
design
guidelines
for
that
area?
A
I
would
hate
to
just
see
a
bunch
of
development
go
in
and
tear
out
all
the
old
buildings
and
old
Bellevue
would
be
this.
This
sign
that
doesn't
make
sense
anymore.
So
do
we
have
that
in
place?
Do
we
need
to
put
that
in
the
comp
plan,
or
is
anybody
talking
about
maintaining
character
of
neighborhoods
while
we
increase
the
ability
to
develop
in
these
areas.
S
Yeah
I
am
I've,
been
battling,
some
sinus
infections,
so
my
apologies
but
I'll
try
and
speak
up,
as
is
codivision
code
amendments
for
Envision.
We
were
not
planning
to
actually
revise
any
of
the
standards
around
bulk
and
form,
so
all
of
the
existing
all
of
those
standards
would
remain
in
place
and
all
the
existing
design
guidelines
and
everything
else
that
exists
across
the
you
know
the
city
both
in
downtown
and
in
these
other
mixed-use
neighborhoods,
would
still
apply.
So
we
do
have
a
lot
of
design
guidelines.
A
S
S
S
Just
for
residential
okay,
in
terms
of
what
makes
the
difference
you
know
to
push
somebody
to
residential
versus
a
commercial
Development
A
lot
of
it
is
what
is
their
return
going
to
be
for
most
of
the
development
community?
So
if
we
can
get
to
a
point
where
the
residential
they
can
create,
they
can
build
more
residential.
It
starts
to
make
sense
where
they're
like
okay
I,
get
a
better
return
on
this
residential
than
I
would
get
on
the
commercial
I
know.
S
That's
about
are
simplistic
explanation
and
I'm,
certainly
not
an
economist,
but
there's
a
lot
of
lovers
to
pull,
and
some
of
that
is
how
much
do
you?
How
much
fluoride
do
you
exempt
for
residential?
Some
of
it
is
what
is
the
far
that's
allowed?
Some
of
it
is,
you
know,
trying
to
think
through
how
what
is
this?
S
A
ratio,
that's
appropriate
if
you
are
going
to
require
affordable
housing
as
a
portion
of
that
up
between
the
today's
maximum
and
anything
in
the
future,
so
all
of
those
will
play
into
it
and
we
will
be
working
with
all
of
those
stakeholders
to
kind
of
figure
out.
What
is
that
best?
What
are
those
best
numbers
for
downtown
and
then
those
numbers
are
all
going
to
vary
as
we
go
out
from
downtown
as
well.
So
a
lot
of
work
for
the
work
to
be
included
in
that
answer.
Great
okay,.
R
A
little
bit
about
what
we
were,
the
terms
of
which,
what
we're
doing
actually
and
we've
had
some
Communications
from
outside
kind
of
you
know
questioning
how
we're
working
on
this
so
I
think
you've
really
explained
it
a
lot
better.
Sometimes
you
have
to
go
through
these
things.
We're
trying
to
figure
this
out.
That's
why
we
have
study
sessions,
I,
think
it's
very
exciting,
I,
I,
I
and
I
think
we
we're
doing
things
that
yes,
we've
been
talking
about
for
a
long
time.
That's
the
only
thing
time
is
is
a
concern.
R
Things
have
changed
so
quickly
in
the
last
half
decade.
You're
just
concerns
me
a
little
bit.
Why
does
it
take
us
like
going
on
two
years
to
get
this
done?
It
doesn't
sound
like
a
really
I
guess.
This
is
the
thing
you're
trying
to
you're
looking
at
it
and
I
understand
that
from
how
do
we
get
this
done
and
we're
looking
at
it
from
a
a
more
of
a
way
to
we
need
this
now?
R
How
can
we
accelerate
this
and
do
it
in
a
way
that
accomplishes
the
goals
and
meets
the
criteria
and
I
I,
don't
know
if
we,
if
we
could
come
up
with
a
solution
to
that
we
could.
It
would
be
great,
but
it
does
concern
me
we're
right
now,
at
the
end
of
we've,
been
working
on
this
for
some
time
we
have
this
New
Concept,
we're
right
at
the
end
of
20
22
and
we're
talking
about
not
actually
putting
us
in
place
in
2024.
R
and
I.
It's
hard
to
tell
what's
going
to
happen
in
2024,
but
as
we
see
what's
going
around
now,
change
is
changes
fast
and
faster
and
faster
and
I.
Just
I
mean
we.
We
have
the
concepts
and
we
we
want
to
do
this
stuff
and
we
have
the
theories
and
we
have
all
the
material,
but
the
reality
is
that
we
have
to
somehow
in
their
work.
So
we
can
do
this
in
a
in
a
way
that
meets
all
the
criteria,
gets
all
the
input
but
doesn't
take
back
and
forth.
R
I
mean
we've
spent
things
in
the
past.
We
had
15
meetings
on
something
we
could
have
done
in
about
three
or
four
and
if
there's
some
way,
you
can
help
us
and
we
can
help
you
in
terms
of
how
do
we,
how
do
we
do
a
better
job
of
of
doing
doing
it
right
doing
it
well
getting
what
we
need,
but
not
taking
forever
to
do
it
and
I
get
a
lot
of.
R
So
I'm
just
raising
this
right
now
because
we're
talking
about
this
and
how
do
we
make
it
work,
go
fast
and
we
how
we
can
help
that
and
how
you
can
help
us
get
to
a
point
where
we
can
accomplish
these
goals
at
a
time
when
we
need
it,
because
the
push
on
affordable
housing
is
just
not
going
to
stop
and
it's
getting
worse
and
every
day
it
gets
worse
and
the
building
desire
for
offices
and
all
is
kind
of
in
in
limbo.
R
A
R
R
Yeah,
it's
a
March
of
Dr
Luca
in
March
of
24
and
we're
in
no
December
22
right
now,
I'm
just
saying
a
year
and
a
couple
and
a
third
is
a
long
time
I'm
just
looking
at.
How
can
we
we
don't
have
the
time
because
we
every
day
we
get
behind,
that's
my
concern,
the
answer
there
anything
we
can
do
to
help
with
that
and
we
think
we
can
look
at
it
as
approaches
and
you
just
do
a
terrific
job
and
I
just
okay.
You
know
that's
all
I'm
looking
at!
Thank
you.
A
S
You
know
I
appreciate
that
sentiment,
councilmember
Stokes,
and
certainly
it's
a
it's
a
sentiment
that
we
share
about
trying
to
get
the
work
done
more
quickly
and
really
that's
why
we
were
proposing
to
do
the
interim
official
control.
We
knew
there
were
projects
that
would
take
advantage
of
it
quickly.
We
wanted
to
make
sure
we
could
serve
that
and
be,
as
our
one
of
our
callers
said,
be
nimble.
So
we
do.
S
We
did
reflect,
try
to
reflect
that
through
the
use
of
the
ioc,
where
we
could
test
out
some
of
these,
but
I
will
be
honest.
I
think
the
you
know,
14-month
schedule
that
you
see
up
there
is
actually
very
ambitious.
There
are
a
lot
of
financial
considerations,
a
lot
of
economic
analysis
and
such
that
are
going
to
have
to
go
into
this,
especially
when
we're
looking
at
so
many
different
zoning
districts.
S
So
we're
looking
at
you
know
just
such
a
wide
variety
and
as
I
mentioned
earlier,
each
one
is
going
to
have
its
own
special
needs
so
I.
Absolutely
we
will
always
look
for
any
way.
We
can
move
this
along
more
quickly
and
I
really
appreciate
your
comments.
Around
how
you,
as
a
body
can
help
also,
so
we
will.
We
will
be
trying
to
move
this
forward
as
quickly
as
possible
and
I
hope
that
the
ioc
is
also
somewhat
responsive.
To
your
your
comments.
V
Members
are
yes,
thank
you.
Thank
you.
I
appreciate
the
work
that
you've
done
to
really
frame
this
in
the
phase,
one
phase
two,
and
really
how
to
be
more
Nimble,
because
I
think
that
now
is
absolutely
the
time.
I
guess
the
best
time
would
have
been
passed,
but
the
next
best
time
is
right
now
so
because
I
do
see
that
the
pressure
is
changing
a
bit
for
the
commercial
development,
so
how
we
actually
leverage
that
softening
of
the
commercial
Market
to
be
able
to
to
incentivize
more
residential
is
going
to
be
really
important.
V
I,
like
the
fact
that
it's
an
early
and
fast
win
of
Q2
of
23.
So
if,
if
it
can
be
earlier
in
the
Q2,
then
later
Q2
would
be
really
helpful.
I
also
appreciate
the
the
comments
and
the
clarification
you
gave
about
what
we're
trying
to
do
and
that
that
any
far
increase
really
must
be
commiserate
with
the
affordable
housing
tools
that
we
have
to
make
sure
that
we're
getting
the
public
benefit.
V
It
was
wasn't
as
clear
to
me
when
I
read
the
packet
and
the
ask
where
it
seemed
to
talk
more
about
how
we
are
trying
to
incentivize
residential
over
commercial
and
what
I
really
heard
tonight
was
that
that
is
one
aspect
of
it.
But
really
the
thing
we're
doing
is
pairing
the
far
increase
with
affordable
housing
so
that
we're
actually
getting
permanently
affordable
housing
in
the
city
that
to
me
is
is
the
main
thing:
providing
flexibility,
removing
barriers
so
that
developers
are
able
to
take
advantage
of
that
I
guess.
V
The
couple
of
questions
that
I
have
is
on
the
proper
calibration
for
the
financials
and
and
really
right
sizing.
What
that
looks
like
I
know
on
East
Main,
we
hired
a
consultant
to
help
us
with
that.
Are
we
looking
at
doing
that
again
because
I
feel
like
really
the
question
we
want
to
be
asking?
Is
you
know
how
much
far
and
density
for
that
specific
area?
Will
it
take
to
get
to
the
affordability
we're
looking
for
because
sometimes
I
do
hear
the
well?
We?
V
V
The
the
other
question
I
have
is
I
know
you
talked
about
in
phase
two
excluding
Bel
Red
look
forward,
but
I'm
wondering
if,
in
the
time
frame
that
you're
looking
at
is
that
later
or
earlier
than
the
Bell
red
look
forward,
because,
if
Bell
red
look
forward,
it's
going
to
take
longer.
I
would
like
this
to
be
included
so
that
we
get
it
done
sooner
rather
than
later.
V
So
it
wasn't
really
as
clear
to
me
about
that
and
then
lastly,
I
just
want
to
make
sure
I
was
clear
about
what
I
heard
when
the
mayor
asked
about
the
commercial
fee
in
lieu.
What
I
heard
you
say
is
that
we're
really
trying
to
focus
on
incenting
by
raising
the
far
on
residential,
and
so
if
we
started
to
open
up
the
can
of
commercial
IT
would
potentially
dilute
the
efforts
we're
trying
to
focus
on
residential.
So
those
are
the
main
questions.
I
have
thanks.
S
I'll
go
ahead
and
start
with
the
economic
consultant.
Yes,
we
will
be
working
with
economic
consultant
on
this
body
of
art.
It's
certainly
you
know
beyond
the
expertise
that
staff
has
here.
S
We
also
will
be
leaning
some
on
the
report
that
was
done
for
East
Maine,
as
that's
our
most
recent
work
done
in
the
city,
and
then
we
will
also
be
working
with
the
development
Community,
as
well
as
the
affordable
housing
community
and
some
of
the
others,
so
I
think
it's
going
to
be
a
real
iterative
process,
as
we
work
through
this,
so
I
think
that'll
be
really
important.
Work
that
we're
doing.
S
Excuse
me
in
terms
of
bell
red
look
forward.
It
is
scheduled
to
be
on
about
the
same
timing,
but
I.
Can
you
know
as
part
of
this
work
we
can
certainly
confirm,
and
if,
for
some
reason
that
was
being
pushed
much
further
out,
we
could
look
at
potentially
adding
it,
but
I
think
there
are
a
lot
of
a
lot
of
good
reasons
to
leave
it
with
bell
red,
so
that
can
be
used
as
kind
of
all
of
the
levers
being
pulled.
At
the
same
time.
S
That's
generally
a
really
effective
way
of
making
change
when
we
have
all
of
the
levers
in
place.
So
this
effort
is
really
just
one
lever
and
we'll
be
kind
of
pulling
on
it
as
much
as
we
can,
but
certainly
at
Bel
Red.
We
have
that
opportunity
to
put
all
the
pieces
together.
So
if
we
can
keep
it
together,
we
will
but
again,
if
there's
for
some
reason,
there's
some
significant
lag.
We
could
certainly
bring
that
back
for
discussion
and,
lastly,
you'd
asked
about
the
commercial
fee
in
lieu.
S
So
at
this
point
in
time
we
do
not
have
a
commercial
fee
and
loose
system
set
up,
and
nor
do
we
have
the
intention,
with
this
code
initiative
to
do
any
sort
of
raising
to
commercial
far.
This
one
really
is
about
raising
the
far
for
residential
and
creating
something
from
that.
I
think
that
any
commercial
fan
Loop
would
be
a
separate
work
item,
but
one
that
you
know
could
be
a
future
work
item
and
certainly
of
Great
Value.
Okay,.
V
S
W
Thank
you.
We.
W
At
the
communication,
Nimbo
government
is
very
important.
A
good
government
is
Nimble,
so
I'm
really
glad
that
you
know
the
staff
and
us
are
Nimble
enough
to
recognize
the
Marcus
situation.
Market
condition
right
now.
You
know
so
that
we
want
to
developed
this
additional
space
to
incentivize
housing
in
the
residential
area,
but
ultimately
it's
a
market
Condition,
it's
incentive,
the
developers,
the
condition
the
situation
has
to
be
ripe.
In
that
that's
what
we
are
doing
makes
sense.
If
the
developers
know
the
time
is
not
right.
W
They
may
already
be
telling
you
hopefully,
including
the
question,
was
asked
with
the
Bell
record.
We
don't
know,
but
maybe
the
barrel
Corrado
the
developer,
with
looking
at
the
same
kind
of
situation,
just
want
to
jump
ahead
again.
So
I
think
you
can
also
then
be
looking
at
anticipating
the
future.
But
that's
beside
the
point.
The
point
is
what
you're
doing
now
I
think
that's
good
you're
doing
is
the
right
thing.
W
It's
good
good
for
everybody
right
as,
but
that's
that's
where
the
uncertainty
is
I
believe.
So
you
really
need
to
be
talking
very
closely.
Have
Consultants
talking
getting
data,
making
sure
that
what
you're
offering
makes
sense
that
they
will
want
to
do
it
if
they
say
no,
we're
not
going
to
do
it,
we're
just
going
through
an
exercise.
You
know
we
just
have
some
fun
so
I,
so
it
depends
on
you
know
what
going
forward
I
believe.
W
F
W
Development
there
that
all
could
work
again.
It
depends
on
the
developers
and
so
I
think
that's
a
very
key.
You
know
we're
still
working
on
a
market
situation.
We
got
to
be
smart,
but
the
key
is
to
be
nimble.
So
that's
all
the
only
thing
I
can
add
you're
doing
with
the
right
things
making
sure
you
meet
their
requirement.
You
know
the
requirements
has
to
be
low
cost
to
the
developer
right.
W
If
it's
not
they're,
going
to
do
it
and
there's
a
profit
for
them
right
and
that's
good,
and
so
you
you'll
find
that
you
know
we
don't
know
what
that
is,
and
so
not
much
that
except
move
forward
and
be
smart
talk
to
the
developers,
get
them
to
see
that
what
we're
doing
and
listen
to
them
right,
listen
to
them
because
they're,
the
one
that's
going
to
build,
we're
not
so
good.
A
D
Thank
you
mayor
first
Liz
and
Nick
Matthew.
Thank
you
for
a
great
presentation.
Liz
thanks
for
your
great
answers
tonight.
Very
clear
and
precise
really
appreciate
it,
especially
with
your
coming
off
your
your
sinus
infection.
There
and
Nick
I
appreciate
you
mentioning
on
multiple
slides
there
about
the
Outreach
and
engagement
process,
really
appreciate
that
meeting.
D
All
all
the
different
folks
from
you
know,
business
organizations,
developers
and
affordable
housing
groups,
as
well
as
a
residents
and
I
appreciate
you
specifically
mentioning
the
neighborhood
associations
as
well
on
the
phase
two.
So
thank
you
for
that.
Yeah
I'm,
very
supportive
of
this.
You
know
it's
in
line
with
our
next
right
work.
It's
in
line
with
the
AHS
D3,
it's
in
line
with
our
planning
for
the
35
000
units,
new
housing
units.
D
It
encourages
residential
development,
encourages
affordable
housing
development
and
it
really
gets
us
already
into
the
residential
projects
downtown
going
and
then
I
really
appreciate
the
fact
that
we're
using
the
ioc
here
to
speed
this
so
kudos
to
get
this
going
and
I
I
appreciate
councilmember
Stokes
wanting
to
push
us
even
faster.
But
if
we
were
to
talk
to
the
you
know
the
East
Main
stakeholders
right
now
they
would
they
would
have
killed
for
14
months,
so
so
I
think
we're
moving
really
really
quickly
on
this.
D
If
we
can
move
it
quicker,
I'd
be
all
in
favor
of
that
as
well,
but
I
appreciate
this
really
well
scoped
presentation
and
face
development
here.
So
thank
you.
U
X
Also
grateful
for
the
staff
innovating
and
in
terms
of
thinking
about
how
we
can
do
this
and
test
it
early
on
I
guess
a
question
in
terms
of
I
mean:
we've
talked
about
affordable
housing,
you
know,
affordability
is
has
different
levels,
so
I
was
curious
about
what
levels
we'll
be
prioritizing
and
then,
as
part
of
the
analysis,
I
imagine
you'll
look
at
a
range
of
tools.
X
As
a
part
of
that
will
we
have
a
chance
to
look
at
some
of
those
combinations
as
part
of
the
discussion
in
terms
of
the
the
different
tools
and
how
they
impact,
like
Ami
level
possibilities
as
well
as
sort
of
what
the
far
increases
I
know
it
might
get
a
little
into
implementation,
but
I'm
really
curious
about,
especially
given
during
the
public
comment.
You
know.
X
S
S
You
know
right
now:
affordable
housing,
land
use
code
is
defined
as
80
Ami
or
less
so
we
probably
would
be
looking
at
that,
but
I
think
we
also
do
need
to
look
at
you
know.
Potentially
those
different
ones
and
you've
got
a
different
bonus
rate
for
different
things.
So
there's
a
lot
of
different
ways.
We
can
structure
this
and
we've
been
looking
at
some
of
that
already.
There
will
be
an
opportunity
for
Council
to
have
the
next
touch
on
this.
S
We
are
planning
to
come
back
in
a
study
session
where
we
can
provide
some
of
the
recommendations
that
staff
has
come
forward
with
through
our
research
and
through
all
of
that
engagement
that
we'll
be
doing
with
the
different
community-based
groups
and
the
development
community
and
so
on,
and
we'll
bring
that
back
at
the
study
session
to
talk
through
before
we
go
to
any
sort
of
action
on
the
ioc.
So
so
there
will
certainly
be
another
touch,
and
at
that
point
we
would
provide
more
background
on
what
we've
heard
and
what
we
recommend.
C
Questions
and
comments
first
I
want
to
say
I
I
support
initiation,
which
is
the
question
we're
being
asked.
I
absolutely
support
the
two
different
phases
approach:
I
think
an
ioc
is
a
really
good
way
to
go
to
kind
of
catalyze
the
additional
housing.
While
we
work
on
the
bigger
picture
and
the
greater
details,
so
I
think
that's
good.
One
thing
I'm
confused
about
about
the
ioc,
however,
is
what,
as
we
sit
here
today,
we
are
anticipating.
C
It
will
apply
to
because
I've
heard
or
I
read
in
the
packet
downtown
and
I
heard
perimeter,
perimeter
overlay
so
and
I
looked
at
it
wasn't
in
the
PowerPoint,
but
I
looked
at
the
downtown
map
which,
by
the
way,
is
really
hard
to
read
with
the
perimeter
overlay.
But
in
case
you
saw
me
getting
really
close
to
my
computer
here.
C
T
So
councilmember
Robertson
what
we're
currently
proposing
with
the
phase
one
ioc.
It
would
impact
the
perimeter,
but
it
would
also
impact
the
downtown
at
large,
so
the
increase
in
far
would
apply
across
downtown
and
then
we
would
make
some
adjustments
within
our
perimeter
overlays,
where,
where
are
maybe
a
little
bit
more
stringent
about
some
of
our
far
utilization,
where
you've
got
a
site
that
might
be
in
the
downtown
mixed-use
district.
T
But
then
you
have
a
perimeter
overlay
that
that
bisects
that
and
then
maybe
another
perimeter
overlay
that
is
layered
past
that
and
we
were
pretty
kind
of
we
tightly
control.
How
far
is
moved
around
within
those
areas,
so
we'd
be
looking
at
relaxing
some
of
that
to
let
the
far
transfer
more
freely
within
a
single
project
limit.
So
that's
where
the
perimeter
distinctions
pulled
out.
We
also
offer
some
flexibility
when
developers
provide
affordable
housing,
we
relax
some
of
the
standards.
Some
of
the
step
backs
some
of
the
floor.
T
T
So
right
now
we
are
looking
to
analyze
the
form
constraints,
alongside
the
increase
in
far
to
ensure
that
any
increase
in
far
is
also
supported
by
some
of
our
form
and
height
limits.
We're
not
looking
at
massive
changes.
You
wouldn't
be
seeing.
You
know,
400
foot
Towers
in
Factoria,
but
we
are
looking
certainly
at
at
what
might
we
do
to
kind
of
ensure
that
any
far
increase
is
supported
by
the
the
form
limits
that
we
have
in
place
got.
C
It
I
think
that
that's
really
smart
and
I
and
I
absolutely
encourage
the
Outreach
to
be
not
just
to
the
business
organizations,
but
to
really
the
property
owners
in
any
of
the
zones
potentially
impacted
by
the
ioc
on
whether
they
have
something
ready
to
go.
Like
you
know,
we
they
we
talk
when
we're
looking
for
federal
grants
about
shovel
ready
projects.
If
there
are
residential
projects
that
people
would
like
to
build,
but
they
are
constrained,
they
can't
build
them
under
the
code
today.
C
Those
are
the
kind
of
things
that
I
think
we
should
be
prioritizing
in
the
ioc
to
let
people
get
moving.
We
need
more
housing,
we
need
more
housing
period
and
then
we
need
a
portion
of
the
additional
housing
to
be
affordable
at
different
income
levels.
So
the
I
I
also
would
like
to
Echo
council
members
on
and
I
think
councilmember
Lee's
comment
about
whether
we
should
have
Bel-Red
in
phase
two
I
would
be
very
open
to
that.
C
But
I'll
I'll
just
share
that
with
you
and
then
when
we
come
back
to
initiate
phase
two,
you
guys
can
think
about
that,
because
Bell
red
the
Bell
red
look
forward.
It's
going
to
involve
the
comp
plan,
then
the
land
use
code.
This
is
just
a
land
use
code
change.
It
could
be
much
faster
and
even
if
it's
just
a
step
in
the
right
direction
for
Bell
red,
it
might
initiate
and
catalyze
more
development.
C
The
the
I
guess.
Finally,
with
regard
to
adding
additional
regulations,
as
some
folks
have
talked
about,
what
you
guys
originally
proposed
was
adding
more
flexibility.
C
E
C
Whatever
it
is,
that
makes
the
proforma
look
less
good,
so
I
think
it's
really
important
that
we
I
would
rather
be
a
little
bit
more
generous
at
the
ioc
if
we're
going
to
air,
if
we
don't
have
the
exact,
perfect
formula,
I'd,
rather
err
on
the
side,
that's
going
to
see
development
rather
than
be
on
the
side.
That
is
a
little
bit
too
a
much
of
an
a
bit
of
an
overreach.
C
So
I'm
really
glad
we're
getting
we're
going
to
look
at
the
economic
analysis
that
we
did
it
East
Main,
and
that
we
are
looking
at
having
a
consultant
on
that,
because
I
think
right,
sizing
it
and
I
think
this
is
something
we
really
need
to
also
talk
to
our
stakeholders
about,
because
we
do
want
to
write
size,
the
regulation
so
that
there's
enough
on
the
table
for
developers
to
make
the
risk
to
make
the
investment,
because
if
there's
not
enough
upside,
they
will
wait
until
land
value
goes
up
or
zoning
changes
so
that
there
is
and
we
want
more
housing-
and
we
want
it
today
or
as
soon
as
possible.
C
So
and
then
I
would
join
my
calling
saying
I
think
this
is
very
fast.
This
is
one
of
the
fastest
times
lines
I've
seen
presented
and
I
would
encourage
us
to
make
sure
we
stick
to
this,
and
you
know.
Obviously
we
can
do
faster.
That's
better,
but
I
really
want
to
see
that
ioc
I'd
like
to
see
it
in
early
to
mid
second
quarter
rather
than
the
end.
So
thanks.
A
A
W
I
On
the
second
on
your
study
session,
this
evening
is
also
part
of
the
next
right
work
that
you
directed
to
have
to
bring
back
from
your
July
22nd
meeting.
This
one
is
a
proposal
for
initiation
of
work
to
reduce,
permit
review
and
inspection
fees
for
qualifying,
affordable
housing
projects.
And
again
we
have
our
team
up
here
and
I'll
go
ahead
and
turn
over
to
this.
S
Thank
you
city
manager,
good
evening
again,
so
we're
moving
on
to
another
next
right
work
topic
as
city
manager
Miyaki
mentioned.
We
are
now
I
think
at
our
fourth
topic
now.
Third
topic
for
next
right
work,
so
we
are
kind
of
getting
through
these.
The
one
tonight
that
we're
going
to
talk
about
next
is
affordable
housing,
fee
reduction.
This
was
directed
by
Council
to
look
at
it
and
we
are
looking
at
reducing
fees
fairly
significantly
for
affordable
housing
projects
and
or
removing
them
entirely.
S
So
we've
got
some
ideas
for
helping
to
initiate
this
work
tonight
and
then
we
would
be,
of
course,
be
coming
back
to
work
out
further
details
and
move
this
forward.
This
does
not
likely
will
not
require
a
code.
Amendment
Linus
code
Amendment
as
envisioned
right
now,
would
mainly
be
process
oriented.
There
could
potentially
be
some
code
amendments,
but
we
will
be
determining
the
estimate
forward,
so
I'll
pass
it
on
to
Nick.
To
start
the
presentation,
great.
T
Thank
you,
Liz
and
good
evening.
So
tonight
we
are
seeking
Council
direction
to
initiate
this
action,
to
reduce,
permit
review
and
inspection
fees
for
qualifying,
affordable
housing
projects
for
a
presentation.
We
wanted
to
talk
about
the
objectives
with
this
effort,
also
how
we
propose
to
process
this
program
proposal,
what
the
scope
is
that
we
have
planned
and
then
some
of
the
issues
that
we'll
be
tracking
as
we
move
this
through
the
the
process
and
then
touch
on
some
of
the
public
engagement
that
we
also
are
are
considering
with
this.
T
So
in
terms
of
objectives,
as
Liz
noted,
this
is
related
to
the
next
right
work,
so
on
July,
5th
Council
initiated
three
actions.
Micro
Apartments
was
the
first
one
out
the
gate
that
was
on
October
10th
tonight,
you're
hearing
the
other
two
actions
and
this
being
that
third
one
to
reduce
fees
for
affordable
housing
projects.
This
is
also
responsive
to
the
affordable
housing
strategy.
Action
C5,
which
does
call
for
ways
to
reduce
cost
of
building,
affordable
housing,
and
one
of
those
cost
important
costs
is
the
permitting
fees
associated
with
those
projects.
T
We'll
be
reporting
back
on
some
of
the
implications
with
the
the
fee,
Reduction
Program,
and
be
looking
for
council's
input
on
the
final
scope
at
that
future
study
session,
and
then
we'll
also
have
a
draft
proposal
for
you
to
respond
to
at
that
study
session
as
well,
and
then
the
last
step
would
be
getting
Council
action
to
implement
or
execute
on
this
reduced
fee
program
so
to
provide
just
a
little
background
on
development
services
and
how
we
operate
in
terms
of
our
permitting
fees.
So
DS
does
operate
on
a
full
cost
recovery
model.
T
So
100
of
the
fees
support
the
the
the
cost
to
review
projects,
that's
both
permitting
as
well
as
inspections,
and
then
the
review
from
the
different
disciplines
within
development
services.
Permit
fees
can
vary
pretty
widely.
You
have
some
areas
of
the
city
where
there's
design
review
as
a
requirement
or
you
have
other
land
use
entitlements
based
on
the
project
scope.
Other
areas
you
can
move
forward
with
a
building
permit
right
away,
so
the
fees
are
looking
like
they
might
be
a
little
less
in
those
areas.
T
So
there's
a
lot
of
variables
based
on
size
of
building
location
within
the
city
and
then
the
developers
kind
of
choice
in
terms
of
how
they
want
to
proceed
with
their
project,
so
we're
finding
and
we'll
provide
some
examples
of
what
we're
seeing
in
terms
of
project
costs
that
we're
assuming
if
we
make
those
eligible
projects,
what
those
are
looking
like
in
terms
of
cost,
but
we
have
more
work
ahead
and
forecasting.
T
Some
of
that
information
and
also
Sophia
reductions
are
not
a
A
New
Concept
in
the
city,
so
at
least
since
1989
the
city
has
been
waving.
Some
fees
for
qualifying,
affordable
housing
projects,
including
Transportation
impact
fees,
as
well
as
school
impact
fees.
U
Thank
you
thanks
Nick.
So
what
we
are
proposing
for
this
is
that
it
would
apply
to
100,
affordable
projects,
so
that's
being
at
or
below
80
Ami.
That
would
include
permanent
Supportive,
Housing,
homeless
services
and
emergency
housing.
We're
proposing
that
we
waive
up
to
a
hundred
percent
of
the
development
services
fees
that
would
not
include
pass-through
fees,
so
some
of
the
fees
that
we
collect
go
to
utilities
or
state
fees.
So
it
would
not
include
those
what
the
overall
goal,
as
Nick
mentioned
in
the
affordable
housing
strategy,
of
reducing
the
cost
of
producing,
affordable
housing.
U
As
you
can
see
by
this
slide,
our
cost
for
fees
for
affordable
housing
can
be
quite
substantial
for
affordable
housing
and,
as
Nick
mentioned,
they
can
vary
widely.
So
you
can
see
the
difference
here
between
the
Supportive
Housing
project,
which
may
not
have
required
land
use
entitlement
permitting
versus
a
project
like
the
Polaris
project,
which
required
a
lot
more
permanent,
which
means
there's
a
lot
more
staff
time,
which
means
there's
a
lot
of
variability
in
our
fees.
U
So
we
are
trying
to
encourage
more
affordable
housing
by
eliminating
these
fees
potentially
and
lowering
the
cost
of
constructing
that
affordable
housing
within
the
city,
and
it
furthers
a
hundred
percent
affordable
projects
within
the
city
that
are
likely
to
require
some
sort
of
subsidy.
So
this
is
adding
a
subsidy
to
those
projects
that
that
may
require
to
be
built
in
the
first
place.
U
Now
it
does
bring
up
some
items
that
we
need
to
consider
when
we
move
forward
with
this
project,
we
are
going
to
need
to
coordinate
between
development
services,
finance
and
asset
management,
the
city
manager's
office
to
assess
the
potential
Financial
requirements
of
this
program
and
the
impact
to
dst's
cost
recovery
model.
As
Nick
mentioned,
we
are
going
to
need
to
determine
what
that
mechanism
is
being
where's
the
money
coming
from
to
fund
these
fee
reductions.
U
It
has
to
come
from
somewhere
when
you
take
away
a
fee,
so
we're
gonna
have
to
look
at
where
it
needs
to
come
from
and
then
how
we're
going
to
apply
this
fee
reduction
so,
whether
that's
a
upfront
reduction
if
it's
a
refund,
if
it's
some
sort
of
amendment
to
the
fee
schedule.
Those
are
all
things
we'll
explore
before
bringing
it
back
to
you,
which
is
step
two
of
the
program
as
Nick
mentioned,
and
we
are
going
to
explore
setting
an
upper
annual
limit
to
the
program.
U
As
we
noted
with
the
wide
variability
we
can
have
years
that
have
a
large
amount
of
fees.
That
would
be
requested
to
be
waived
and
we
could
have
years
with
much
less
so
setting
that
upper
limit
to
make
sure
that
there's
an
expectation
with
affordable
development,
affordable
developers
on
how
much
fee
we
can
waive
in
a
single
year.
So
someone
doesn't
get
caught
out
requesting
a
fee
waiver
and
then
not
having
funds
available.
U
To
propose
public
engagement
would
be
with
affordable
housing
advocacy
groups.
Obviously
this
is
an
amendment
or
an
update.
That's
geared
towards
affordable
housing,
those
developers
and
Builders
Supportive
Housing
providers
and
service
providers
to
make
sure
that,
whatever
way
we
do
the
fee
reduction,
it's
it
works
for
their
programs
and
works
with
their
financing
and
then
we'll
do
some
research
into
neighbor
and
peer
cities
to
see
what
they've
done.
Several
other
cities
in
Washington
and
in
the
region
have
done
some
sort
of
affordable
housing
fee
waivers.
U
And
finally,
this
evening
we
are
seeking
direction
to
initiate
action
on
this
item,
to
reduce
permit
review
and
inspection
fees
for
qualifying,
affordable
housing
projects,
and
with
that
mayor,
I
will
pass
it
back
to
you.
Okay,.
A
D
Thank
you
mayor.
Another
great
presentation,
thank
you.
So
much
I
know.
We've
touched
on
this
a
little
bit
previously
and
we're
just
initiating
it
tonight,
so
we're
getting
another
chance
to
get
another
touch
on
this
later,
but
appreciate
the
way
you've
scoped
this
this
process
and
just
a
couple
of
quick
questions.
D
D
Is
that
going
to
be
part
of
your
review,
your
fiscal
review,
Into
the
total
impact,
and
what
do
those
fees
look
like
and
I
appreciate
the
fact
that
you
put
in
some
examples
here
of
what
waiving
the
fees
would
look
like,
but
I'm
curious
what
those
look
like
the
transportation,
School
impact
and
then
will
that
also
be
a
part
of
that
assessing
the
potential
fiscal
impact.
T
Yes,
so
Deputy
Mayor,
with
the
with
our
review
on
what
the
fiscal
impact
is,
we
do
want
to
have
an
understanding
of
what
are
the
subsidies
currently
offered
and
then
how
does
this
kind
of
add
to
that?
And
what
is
the
overall
impact
of
this
program
with
the
school
or
Transportation
impact
fee
waiver
program
as
well?
So
you
have
the
full
picture
of
what
the
impact
is.
T
I,
don't
have
the
dollar
amounts
for
those
fees,
they're,
usually
based
off
of
trips
generated,
and
so
there's
kind
of
a
tie-in
with
that
so
we'd
have
to.
We
can
certainly
bring
that
back,
though.
D
Yeah,
it's
only
just
part
of
that
process.
That
would
be
great
and
then
also
I.
I
know
that
this
is
of
concern
to
the
mayor
and
and
others
I,
remember
the
conversation
about
and
perhaps
we're
putting
it
into
a
separate
bucket
and
bringing
it
back,
but
it
was
about
Expediting.
D
The
the
permit
versus
just
waiving
the
fee
is
that
going
to
be
part
of
this
process
here
are
putting
that
in
a
separate
bucket.
I
think
the
two
are
tied
together
in
in
a
lot
of
ways
and
I
know:
there's
some
interest
there
in
terms
of
get
maybe
even
giving
the
option
of
which
way
they
might
want
to
approach
that.
But
what
are
your
your
views
on
that.
S
I
can
take
that
one
Deputy
Mayor,
so
we
are
planning
to
be
back
here
in
early
January
with
scoping
for
the
expedited
permit
review
that
was
requested
by
Council
when
we
went
for
next
right
work.
So
we
are
still
a
very
preliminary
stages
in
that
I
think
there
are
some
corollaries
and
certainly
in
January.
C
Yeah
I
agree
with
the
mayor.
This
is
a
nice
way
to
end
the
year,
so
I
am
supportive
of
this
work
and
initiating
the
work.
I
have
one
question
about
the
eligibility.
C
It
talked
about.
100,
affordable
projects,
permanent
Supportive,
Housing,
emergency
housing,
homeless,
Services
uses.
Do
we
ever
get
or
could
we
ever
conceivably
get
applications
for
those
types
of
projects
from
a
not
from
here's,
a
double
negative
from
a
non-non-profit,
because,
if
someone's
building
one
of
these
for
profit,
which
I
think
probably
doesn't
work
on
the
performa
I,
don't
know
that
I
want
to
give
them
a
fee
cut
if
it's
a
for-profit
project.
So
just
think
about
that,
please
whether
we
want
to
limit
this
to
non-profit
applicants.
C
Second
with
regard
to:
where
are
we
going
to
get
the
money
and
whether
there
should
be
a
limitation
I?
Would
I
assume
you'll
be
working
with
legal,
but
it
seems
to
me
that
if
we
can
use
money
that
we
have
that
directly
comes
in
for
affordable
housing
from
the
city,
that's
in
that's
revenue
or
that's
expenditure
constrained,
that's
the
word
I
was
searching.
That
would
be
the
best
situation,
so
15
90
money,
1406
money,
potentially
cbdgs,
block
grants
and
I
think
we
could
use
Reit
and
tot
as
well.
C
Although
that
would
not
be
my
First
Choice,
we
possibly
could
also
get
grants
from
the
Housing
State
Housing
Trust
Fund,
to
fund
this
program.
So
I
think
that
we
need
to
be
thinking
thinking
smartly
about.
Where
are
we
going
to
get
the
money
to
fund
this
because
the
more
funds
we
have
for
this,
the
more
projects
we
can
give
this
benefit
to
I'd
hate,
to
have
the
third
project
or
fifth
project
in
the
door
of
in
a
given
year?
C
No
come
back
next
year,
because
otherwise
you
have
to
pay
the
application
fees,
whereas
the
person
before
you
didn't,
but
that's
money's,
not
unlimited.
So
there
has
to
be
that
I
understand.
We'd
have
to
be
a
limit.
That's
why
I
think
we
should
really
look
for
these
types
of
funds
that
are
constrained
for
uses
for
affordable
housing
like
the
ones
I
mentioned.
So
when
this
comes
back,
will
you
have
the
way
to
fund
the
program
figured
out.
S
S
One
of
the
things
we've
we've
talked
about
a
lot
of
different
ideas
and,
yes,
we
will
be
working
with
the
lawyers
to
see
you
know
how
we
can
push
funds
around,
but
one
of
the
other
things
that
we've
thought
was
very
important
is
that
there
is
a
sustainable
income
source
for
this,
so
that
we
are
not
scrambling
every
year
trying
to
figure
out
how
we're
going
to
pay
this
year's
bills
as
it
were.
So
we
are
looking
at
it
as
sustainable
and
we're
looking
trying
to
look
under
all
the
different
rocks
to
find
out.
S
You
know
where,
where
this
funding
can
come
from,
but
we
definitely
will
be
bringing
that
back
as
part
of
our
further
work.
I
did
briefly
want
to
ask
a
little
bit
about
the
non-profit,
so
you
had
mentioned
potentially
limiting
it
to
a
non-profit,
developer,
I
think
some
affordable
housing
May
strictly
affordable
housing
projects
could
be
potentially
done
by
a
for-profit
developer.
I
think
it's
unlikely
that
we
would
see
a
lot
of
permanent
Supportive,
Housing
or
some
of
the
other
ones,
but
I
I
think
there
may
be
some
mix
in
there.
C
It's
the
it's:
it's
the
non-profit,
the
affordable
housing
100,
affordable
that
I'm
less
worried
about
it's.
The
other
types
of
that
I
want
to
make
sure
that
it's
limited
to
non-profits
and
yes
and
I
agree.
We
need
to
find
a
sustainable
funding
source.
That's
why
I
was
thinking
the
1590
or
the
1406
money.
C
Fortune
6
a
20-year
money
Source,
but
the
1590
is
not
limited
in
time.
So
that
might
be
a
really
good
way
to
go
about
funding
the
program
thanks,
councilmember
Berk,
Steel,.
X
All
right,
thank
you.
I'm
going
to
have
the
shortest
I
appreciate
the
discussion.
That's
happened
and
look
forward
to
this
work
coming
back
to
council,
so
I
support
initiating
it.
Thank
you.
A
Just
say,
as
the
deputy
mayor
said,
I'm
very
interested
in
pairing
this,
with
some
expedited
permitting
for
a
developer,
putting
in
affordable
housing
that
would
pay
the
full
fees,
but
could
save
money
by
having
the
permit
done
sooner.
So
it
seems
like
having
this
choice
would
be,
would
be
good,
so
I'm,
looking
forward
to
initiating
this
work
and
then
bringing
that
other
work
forward
as
well.
Councilmember
Lee.
W
Thank
you,
Madame
I,
thank
you
for
bringing
this
back.
This
is
all
the
necessary
ingredient
to
encourage
for
the
bahasi,
basically
to
reduce
the
cost,
make
it
easier,
but
I
also
support
a
council
member
operators,
primarily
statement
about
making
sure
that
we,
our
own
City's
budget,
you
know
operation,
doesn't
really
get
any
an
academic
impact
or
if
it
does,
we
don't
know
what
it
is
so
that
we
know
how
to
budget
for
for
for
your
operation
for
the
service
operation
and
we're
looking
at
three
projects
can
be
up
to
a
million
dollars.
W
So
I
don't
know
if
we
can
have
a
hundred
projects,
there's
going
to
be
lots
of
money,
so
there
needs
to
be
a
some
consideration
of
a
cap.
Some
kind
of
constraint,
I
think
W
de
Mayo
has
mentioned
that
that
make
it
makes
sense
so
that
we
have
some
reasonable
anticipation,
control
and
management
over
what
we
can
do
right.
W
We
can't
just
have
a
blank
check
to
hey
anybody.
Come
you
get
it
and
I
agree
that
if
it's
a
non-profit
entity,
that's
doing
this
we're
already.
We
just
went
through
this
discussion
about
affordable
housing
to
encourage
environment
by
private
developers.
So
you
know
so
there
are
ways
to
give
them
encouragement.
How
to
you
know,
increase
affordable
housing,
so
we
don't
have
any
double
duplication
or
whatever
to
steer
people
to
to
do
one
thing
or
the
other
right.
W
It's
got
to
be
Fair,
equitable,
but
finally,
I
think
it's
important
that
the
question
I
have
I,
don't
know
how
how
it
works.
When
you
say
that
we
waive
a
million
dollars
a
fee,
is
it
a
million
dollars
actually
out
of
the
city's
pocket
that
we
are
actually
have
a
million
dollars
to
last
to
work
with,
or
actually
it's
a
fee
we
charge,
and
we
really
don't
use
that
all
that
money.
You
know
just
I
just
know
profit
that
we
used
to
run
other
operations.
So
what?
S
Services
is
a
fee
supported
business
line
for
the
city,
and
so
we
do
charge
for
our
services.
We
receive
some
small
amount
from
the
general
fund,
mainly
to
cover
some
of
our
Code
Compliance
work
and
some
of
our
administrative
work,
but
the
vast
majority
of
our
work
is
paid
for
by
the
fees
of
the
development
community.
So
if
we
do
not
have
that,
we
would
be
in
a
deficit
from
the
development
services
department.
So
we
would
not.
W
So
it's
a
little
bit
complicated,
then
to
say
yes
or
losing
that
much
money.
So
I
think
when
you
analyze
all
this
I'm
sure
that
you
will,
you
know,
come
back
with
all
that
information,
so
we
can
understand
what
is
the
impact
to
you
guys
and
to
the
city
to
our
operations,
and
what
do
we
need
to
make
sure
that
we
can
contain
it,
so
it
doesn't
get
out
of
the
hand
right
or
give
to
the
wrong
people
or
whatever.
A
V
V
I
was
glad
to
hear
that
we
already
have
a
fee
waiver
for
the
transportation
and
school
impact
fees,
so
just
wanted
to
clarify
when
it
says
not,
including
pass-through
fees,
is
that
utility
connection
fees
is
that
what
you
mean
by
that
I
was
trying
to
understand
that,
and
then
I
also
agree
with
my
colleagues
about
the
sustainable
funding
options
and
making
sure
that
what
we're
putting
in
place
is
sustainable,
whether
we
can
do
more
with
leveraging
1590
I
know,
we've
talked
about
being
able
to
bond
against
future
revenues
to
be
able
to
do
something,
whether
if
we
actually
saw
a
lot
of
people
banging
on
our
door
wanting
to
take
advantage
of
this,
that's
actually
a
win,
and
so
I
might
say
that,
instead
of
putting
a
cap
on
it,
we
might
want
to
think
about
what
are
some
other
sources
of
funding.
V
We
might
be
able
to
leverage
and
then
actually
thinking
that
are
there
some
additional
legislative
lobbying
and
advocacy
we
can
do
at
the
state
and
federal
level
to
look
at
different
funding
sources.
I
would
say
that
the
national
league
of
cities
with
upcoming
president
or
actually
current
president
Victor
mayor
Woodard,
one
of
her
platforms,
is
housing
and
affordable
housing.
So
is
there
some
more
advocacy
we
could
be
doing
around
getting
more
funding
so
that
we
can
keep
this
going?
V
What
we
want
to
say
is
we're
trying
trying
to
incent
as
much
affordable
housing
as
we
can,
and
we
want
to
be
able
to
be
helpful
and
then
I
also
agree
with
my
colleagues
about
whether
we
can
look
at
the
time
too,
because
time
is
money.
So
is
there
more?
We
could
do
with
Expediting
those
permits
is
there.
Some
I
would
say
assurances
we
can
provide
the
affording
affordable
housing
developers.
V
That
says
that
when
you
come
with
a
with
an
application
for
affordable
housing,
we
are
going
to
work
with
you
to
get
that
permit
process
within
whatever
number
of
months
you
think
is
appropriate
so
that
there's
more
reliability
in
their
ability,
also
for
financing
and
Expediting.
Whether
some
of
this
might
include
hummings
an
ombuds
person
that
would
help
affordable
housing
developers
when
they
come
in
the
door
for
for
help
and
that
might
already
exist.
So
those
were
some
some
questions.
I
have
I'm
just
really
excited
about
getting
going
on
this.
So
thank
you.
S
Go
ahead
and
take
a
start
at
some
of
these
and
then
I'm
going
to
pass
it
off
to
either
Matthew
or
net.
To
answer
your
first
question,
but
we
will
absolutely
be
working
with
Genesee
Atkins
as
well
and
talking
about
what
are
those
opportunities
to
look
for
other
sources
of
funding
beyond
what
we
know
immediately
in
our
world.
So
I
think
that's
a
great
thought
and
something
that
will
will
continue
to
work
on
in
terms
of
the
looking
at
time.
Also
you're
somewhat
previewing
our
conversation
for
January.
S
So
in
January
we
are
going
to
be
talking
about
what
we
can
do
to
move
affordable
housing
projects
through
the
system
more
quickly
and
more
efficiently,
and
part
of
that
you
know,
could
be
some
sort
of
project
manager
or
Ombudsman.
Or
you
know,
we've
got
a
lot
of
different
ideas.
We
sat
down
in
a
room
one
day
and
came
up
with.
You
know
a
list,
this
long
of
different
things
we
can
do
so.
S
That
is
part
of
that
conversation
in
January,
so
rest
assured
that
that
is
not
lost
and
we
will
be
picking
up
that
thread
and
moving
forward
with
that.
January
12th
I
believe
it
is
and
maybe
Matthew
do
you
have
some
ideas
about
what
those
pass-through
fees
are.
Can
you
speak
to
that.
U
Yeah,
so
some
examples
would
be
fees
we
pass
on
the
Cascade
water
Alliance
and
we
do
permitting
there's
also
a
small
state
fee
that
we
have
when
we
do
permitting.
So
it's
going
to
be
fees
like
that
that
we'll
collect
through
our
permitting
process,
but
we
then
move
on
to
other
departments
So.
The
plan
is
not
to
impact
other
departments
or
other
entities
outside
of
the
city.
V
A
R
Okay,
I'll
go
ahead
and
get
the
parks
thing
because
before
I
forget,
like
I
did
before
I
wanted
to
also
recognize
the
Bellevue,
Downtown,
Association
and
and
and
Patrick
Bannon
and
the
organization
of
helping
on
the
levy
and
Patrick.
Thank
you
very
much
and
my
apologies
for
skipping
it
at
the
beginning,
but
anyhow
so
I
guess
it's
a
good
conversation.
The
thing
it
it's
we're
talking
about.
R
I
love
it
when
we're
talking
about
a
specific
question
and
then
we
go
into
other
programs
and
stuff
and
that
and
we
get
some
some
Jewels
out
of
it.
Sometimes
it's
it's
interesting
because
the
thing
is
initiate
the
action
to
reduce
the
permit,
review
and
inspection
fees
for
housing
projects
and
I.
Think
we're
all
saying
it's
a
good
idea,
but
we're
also
saying
there
are
other
ways
and
one
of
the
things
to
take
into
account
is
that
I
believe
that
what
you'll
find
you've
kind
of
hinted
on
it.
R
A
little
bit
is
that
having
a
reducing
a
fee
is
different
from
taking
money
directly
out
of
an
account
that
we
have
and
putting
that
in
I
mean
there
are
ways
to
adjust
it
in
terms
of
the
cost
of
of
Labor
and
all
those
kind
of
things
so,
and
it's
also
just
another
way
for
the
city
to
actually
directly
impact,
and
you
know,
carry
out
its
its
commitment
to
affordable
housing.
So
it's
it's
I
think
we
have
a
good
balance
on
that
and
it
and
it's
easier
in
some
ways.
R
The
reduction
of
fees
again
is
it's:
it's
not
necessarily
a
dollar
for
a
dollar
in
the
whole
thing,
so
it's
a
very
has
proven
to
be
a
very
good
way
to
handle
it.
It
doesn't
mean
we
won't
continue
and
also,
if
we
take
it
out
of
1590,
then
we're
lowering
the
activity.
We
could
do
there,
because
there
are
some
differences
in
this,
so
I
think
we're.
R
Looking
at
all
these
pieces,
you
know
waving
the
the
school
fees
is
again
another
way
for
the
city
to
help
the
schools
without
actually
putting
cash
into
the
schools
and
it.
So
it's
it's
a
combination,
I
think
it's.
Why
we're
doing
this
and
the
questions
have
been
asked
about.
R
It's
been
proven
to
be
a
very
good
way
in
the
past
in
a
number
of
areas
and
again
it's
you
know,
the
money
has
to
come
from
somewhere
and
it's
a
again
a
balance
on
that.
So
I
I
think
it's
you've
done
a
really
good
job
and
we
can
put
something
in
place
in
this
particular
area
that
will
work
very
well
and
will
will
be
a
also
show
a
commitment
directly
from
the
city
to
make
these
things
happen,
and
sometimes
the
city
putting
money
into
it
doesn't
show
up
as
much
as
doing
something
like
this.
R
A
A
All
right,
that's
excellent,
so
the
last
part
piece
on
our
study
session
was
the
intergovernmental
issues,
which
is
a
very
good
read
in
the
packet
I
suggest
that
everybody
do
that
and
we're
going
to
move
on
to
three
ordinances
that
we
have
already
had
a
lot
of
information
and
discussion
on
that.
At
the
end
of
those
discussions,
we
asked
staff
to
bring
them
back
for
us
to
vote
on,
and
so
this
is
the
night
to
do
it.
Mr
Miyake
anything
else,
you'd
like
to
add
with.
I
Y
Y
So
with
that,
I
have
a
very
brief
presentation
and
happy
to
answer
any
questions
following
that.
Y
Them
I
will
be
going
over
both
the
2022
CPAs,
and
then
there
are
three
Associated
ordinances
and
I'll
be
going
over
each
of
those
ordinances
as
part
of
I
have
a
slide
that
illustrates
what
the
three
ordinances
are
for
Action
tonight.
Okay,
thank
you.
Y
So,
as
we
said,
staff
is
here
this
evening
based
on
direction
that
Council
provided
at
the
November
14th
study
session.
As
you
as
you're,
aware,
you're,
all
very
familiar
with
our
annual
comprehensive
plan
amendment
process
under
state
law
and
the
growth
management
act,
we
can
only
amend
the
comprehensive
plan
once
a
year
through
a
legislative
process
which
requires
a
public
hearing
with
a
Planning
Commission
and
then
final
action
by
city
council.
Y
So,
as
we
said,
we
were
here
on
November
14th
and
for
us
tonight.
We
have
where
I'll
provide
a
brief
summary
of
the
two
city-initiated
comprehensive
plan
amendments.
This
year
we
did
not
have
any
privately
initiated
submitted
the
Planning
Commission
utilized
decision
criteria,
that's
in
our
land
use
code
that
provides
a
criteria
for
evaluating
these
amendments
and
the
Planning
Commission
did
come
before
you
as
well
the
Planning
Commission
Vice
chair
and
provided
their
recommendation.
Y
This
is
part
of
the
2022
annual
amendments
city
council
initiated
two
amendments,
one
in
support
of
adding
policies
to
the
transportation
element
and
the
downtown
sub-area
plan
in
support
of
curb
management.
The
second
Senate
City,
initiated
Amendment,
relates
to
the
affordable
housing
strategy.
Action.
Y
C1
and
phase
two
of
that
phase,
one
went
through
a
similar
process
a
couple
years
ago
and
again,
Planning
Commission
provided
held
a
public
hearing
and
provided
recommendations
on
both
the
comprehensive
plan.
Amendments.
Y
So
a
little
bit
of
detail
on
curb
management
as
I
as
I
mentioned
in
the
previous
slide.
We
we
looked
at
adding
policies
to
build
the
transportation
element,
as
well
as
the
downtown
sub-area
plan
policies
would
apply.
City-Wide
based
on
the
transportation
element
policies
in
support
of
curb
management.
It
also
provides
direction
to
create
a
more
coordinated
system
within
our
transportation
Network
and
moving
forward
a
little
bit
on
affordable
housing
strategy
action.
C1
phase.
Two.
Y
As
as
I
noted,
we
had
phase
one
which
went
through
a
similar
process
in
2020,
followed
by
land
use
code
Amendment.
So
this
work
will
really
inform
future
work
with
a
with
a
similar
land
use
code.
Amendment
we're
adding
two
policies
into
the
housing
element.
As
part
of
this
proposal,
one
policy
would
allow
rezones
on
certain
eligible
properties
also
include
some
of
the
some
of
the
criteria,
which
would
be
better
clarified
or
more
detail
as
part
of
the
land
use
code.
Y
Amendment
process
we're
also
adding
a
policy,
and
this
was
something
that
the
Planning
Commission
recommended,
directing
City
staff
to
reach
out
to
religious
organizations
and
really
provide
assistance
through
the
process.
In
addition,
we're
also
adding
a
note
on
the
comprehensive
plan
land
use
map
identifying
that
there's
potential
for
resounds
for
these
certain
eligible
and
qualifying
properties.
Y
So,
as
we
said,
there
are
three
Associated
ordinances.
One
ordinance
is,
of
course,
to
adopt
policies
in
support
of
curb
management
under
ordinance
number
6707,
there's
a
second
policy
there's
the
second
ordinance
that
would
adopt
the
changes
for
affordable
housing
strategy
action,
C1
phase
two
under
ordinance
6708,
and
then
we
have
an
umbrella
ordinance
which
adopts
the
2022
comprehensive
plan
amendments
and
that
is
under
ordinance.
6709
with
that
I'm
going
to
hand
things
back
to
you,
mayor
for
for
discussion
and
any
follow-up
questions.
Okay,.
A
D
D
A
Any
opposed
and
they
pass.
Thank
you
very
much
Tara
well.
This
has
been
quite
a
year
for
this
city
and
for
the
council,
we've
we've
done
a
lot.
We've
accomplished
a
lot
this
year
and
we
are
not
going
to
get
we're
not
going
to
resume
our
meetings
until
January,
9th
2023
and
every
year
I
write
a
poem
to
do
a
synopsis
of
the
year,
but
I
didn't
write
my
own
this
year,
I'm
going
to
read
somebody
else's,
and
this
is
called
white
eyes
by
Mary
Oliver
kind
of
summarizes,
I.
A
Think
some
of
the
council
feelings
after
such
a
busy
year
and
moving
into
the
break
in
Winter.
All
the
singing
is
in
the
tops
of
the
trees
where
the
wind
bird,
with
its
white
eyes
shoves
and
pushes
among
the
branches
like
any
of
us.
He
wants
to
go
to
sleep,
but
he's
Restless.
He
has
an
idea
and
slowly
it
unfolds
from
under
his
beating
wings
as
long
as
he
stays
awake,
but
his
big
round
music,
after
all,
is
too
breathy
to
last.
So
it's
over
in
the
pine
Crown.
He
makes
his
nest
he's
done.
A
All
he
can
I,
don't
know
the
name
of
this
bird
I
can
only
imagine
his
glittering
beak,
tucked
in
a
white
wing,
while
the
clouds
which
he
has
summoned
from
the
north,
which
he
is
taught
to
be
mild
and
Silent
thicken
and
begin
to
fall
into
the
world
below,
like
stars
or
the
feathers
of
sun,
some
unimaginable
bird
that
loves
us.
That
is
asleep
now
in
silent.
That
has
turned
itself
into
snow
and
with
that
we
are
adjourned.
