We
have
a
very
packed
agenda
tonight,
so
I've
asked
the
deputy
mayor
to
see
if
he
can
help
us
keep
to
three
minutes
max
per
comment,
and
if
we
need
to
go
back
around
we'll
do
that
clerk,
do
you
have?
Can
you
do
the
roll
call?
Please?
Yes,
thank
you,
mayor
robinson.
C
C
D
E
A
Thank
you
mayor.
Yes,
we
did
have
nine
individual
registration
pre-registrations
for
oral
communications
this
evening.
Unfortunately,
seven
of
those
were
on
the
same
side
of
the
same
topic.
So
pursuant
to
council
rules,
only
the
first
three
will
be
allowed
to
speak
this
evening.
H
H
The
lack
of
establishing
conditions
regarding
the
approval
of
that
dues
conflict
with
existing
goals
of
the
northwest
comprehensive
plan,
while,
as
anticipated,
the
absolute
number
of
dados
will
be
very
small
on
the
streets
where
they
are
built.
The
impact
can
be
significant,
diminishing
homeowners
value,
erode
in
a
sense
of
community
and
adversely
impacting
traffic
and
parking.
H
H
H
Sunset
clause,
if
approved,
is
recommended.
The
code
be
conditional
and
subject
to
a
sunset
clause.
Such
a
cause
would
provide
the
time
for
the
city
to
assess
compliance
and
effectiveness
in
expanding,
affordable
housing.
Such
clauses
have
been
established
in
other
cities
such
as
tucson
as
it
applies
to
that
dues,
while
any
pre-approved
dadu
will
be
grandfathered.
The
city
will
be
required
to
savage
criteria
before
extending
additional
permits,
and
the
last
point
is
monitoring
enforcement,
as
we've
found
before.
H
Accessory
drawing
units
could
be
abused,
it's
conceivable
that
homeowners
may
no
longer
meet
residency
requirements,
off-street
parking
could
be
eliminated
and
the
dad
do
could
be
repurposed
for
business
usage,
combined
with
the
11
existing
conditions
cited
by
the
association.
We
believe
the
negative
impact
that
of
that
dues
could
be
eliminated
while
increasing
affordable
housing
options.
H
Concurrently,
we
encourage
the
council
to
continue
the
dialogue
with
developers
to
increase
affordable
housing
units
in
the
downtown
core.
Having
affordable
housing,
convenient
to
build
our
people
work
and
live,
we
will
reduce
traffic
and
increase
employment
opportunities.
We
look
forward
to
working
with
the
staff
and
council
towards
achieving
these
goals.
Thank
you.
A
I
Although
it's
had
a
couple
of
different
titles,
the
council
today
has
the
opportunity
to
move
the
northwest
neighborhood
plans.
I'm
lumping
them
together
to
an
overall
comp
plan
parking
lot.
In
my
opinion,
while
the
updating
of
the
master
plan
for
bellevue
takes
place,
22
through
24,
I
believe,
is
your
coming
deadline
and
while
this
process
is.
I
I
Just
like
mr
spiezel
was
saying
we
have
big
topics.
Pre-Canopy
lucas,
dadus
boat,
docks,
neighborhood
density.
They
vary
across
each
individual,
neighborhood
we'd
love
to
see
you
make
great
efforts
to
use
layman's
terms,
language
provide
more
definitions
more
frequently
when
we're
in
these
processes
please.
I
I
This
is
a
beautiful
baseline
for
fresh
plans
and
clean
methodologies
are
identified
and
the
deficiencies
in
the
data
interpretation
then
go
forward
with
the
sub-area
neighborhood
plans
after
your
comp
plan
is
complete.
I
urge
the
council
to
not
accept
this
incomplete
and
flawed
draft
plan.
Thank
you.
By
the
way,
the
city
they
busted
their
keisters,
making
hard
hard
work
for
engagement.
E
Okay,
thank
you
very
much.
Hi,
I'm
chuck
dolan.
I've
been
a
resident
of
bellevue
since
1955.
it's
about
67
years.
My
residence
is
95
39
northeast
first
street.
We
raised
our
children
in
west
bellevue,
initially
in
north
bellevue
and
later
at
our
current
residence
in
in
west
bellevue
or
the
loch
levin
neighborhood.
For
the
past
43
years
I
enjoyed
representing
our
west
bellevue
community
on
the
subway
advisory
council's
circa
1980,
establishing
the
central
business
district.
E
E
These
cannot
should
not
become
airbnbs,
as
mr
speechless
spoke
earlier,
nor
should
they
permit
offices
or
commercial
use,
and
we
hope
you
will
incorporate
a
four
year
or
less
evaluation
sunset
clause
to
see
whether
the
data's
are
achieving
their
purpose
for
residency
as
well
as
the
residential
communities.
E
J
I
am
dick
thompson
50-year
resident
at
3115
103rd
avenue
northeast
in
north
town.
I
am
speaking
to
you
this
evening
about
the
northwest
and
northeast
w
neighborhood
area
plans
that
you
will
be
considering
in
tonight's
study
session
last
week.
I
suggested
that
council
consider
an
action
on
these
two
plans
other
than
approval
tonight
I
ask
once
again:
neighborhood
area
planning
was
severely
impacted
by
the
coven
19
pandemic.
J
J
The
engagement
process
was
a
series
of
online
zoom
meetings
in
a
few
mailed
and
online
surveys.
Posting
ideas
on
a
website
was
also
available.
The
difficulty
here
is
that
these
activities
were
almost
exclusively
one-on-one
engagements,
neighborhood
participant
to
staff,
no
interaction
among
neighborhood
participants.
J
A
K
I
am
testifying
tonight
on
behalf
of
the
east
side
housing
roundtable
of
which
the
chamber
is
a
member
and
you've
heard
of
us
before
we're
abroad,
coalition
of
coalition,
comprised
of
businesses,
nonprofit
organizations
and
private
and
non-profit
housing
developers
that
have
united
to
support,
affordable
housing
in
bellevue
and
on
the
east
side,
I'm
speaking
tonight
to
ordinance
6620,
which
relates
to
permitting
and
development
services,
fees
for
construction
and
land
use
permits,
and
we
are
definitely
encouraging
you
to
pass
it
tonight.
K
We
do
not
want
it
to
be
delayed
in
any
way,
but
we
are
hoping
that,
as
part
of
the
convert,
the
ongoing
conversation
related
to
affordable
housing
council
could
direct
staff
to
look
into
exempting
affordable
housing
projects
from
development
services
application
fees.
K
This
aligns
with
action,
c5
of
bobby's,
affordable
housing
strategy
to
reduce
the
costs
of
building,
affordable
housing,
and
I
will
tell
you
that
there
are
examples
currently
in
bellevue
of
affordable
housing
projects,
paying
hundreds
of
thousands
of
dollars
in
fees
to
the
city
of
bellevue.
K
K
This
total
this
very
much
reduces
barriers
to
needed
projects
and
advancing,
and
if
you
can
further
encourage
the
building
of
units
at
that
will
be
permanently
affordable
at
80
percent
or
60
ami
and
below
that's
what
the
east
side
housing
roundtable
would
like
to
see,
and
I
know
that's
what
council
would
like
to
see
and
every
bit
counts,
so
reducing
permit
fees
and
also
reducing
permit
timelines
in
a
very
meaningful
way
will
absolutely
help
deliver
those
types
of
units
that
the
council
is
looking
for.
K
A
Thank
you,
miss
classen.
That
is
the
end
of
our
pre-registered
list.
At
this
point,
I
would
ask
if
there
is
anyone
else
who
would
like
to
make
comment
to
the
city
council
this
evening
again
we
have
reached
the
number
of
max
or
the
maximum
number
of
speakers
in
opposition
or
having
concern
with
item
10b,
the
cpas.
A
B
Okay,
great,
thank
you.
Thank
you
very
much,
so
we
have
first
on
our
list
here
in
under
reports
of
community
council
awards
and
commissions,
a
recommendation
from
the
arts
commission.
Mr
miyaki,
did
you
want
to
introduce
that.
C
Sure

I
I
can
introduce
this
good
evening
council
members
by
way
of
background

2001
has
allocated
funding
annually
to
support
artists
and
arts
organizations
providing
services
and
programs
in
bellevue.
The
arts
commission
has
played
a
critical
role
in
providing
funding
allocation
recommendations
to
city
council
for
purposes
of
the
budget.
C
I'm

L

and
council

Really

My

I'm

community
manager
for
the
city

bellevue.
Tonight

the
arts,
commission,
maria

commission,
their
recommendations
for
the
2022
arts
grants
with

it
is
my
honor
to

chair
logi.
M
First,
we
are
going
to
go
going
to
briefly
cover
this
year's
2021's
grant
program.
Then
we'll
present
the
allocations
made
for
next
year,
2022
by
the
allocations
committee
and
approved
by
the
arts
commission
next
slide.
Please
this
year
is
the
third
year
we
used
an
online
application
portal
which
we'll
continue
with
again
for
2022.
M
M
M
M
M
M
This
year
we
received
46
applications,
12
of
which
were
new
applicants
this
compared
to
42
applications
with
12
new
applicants.
Last
year
last
month,
our
allocations
committee,
which
comprised
a
free
arts,
commissioners
and
two
outside
community
members,
scored
each
application
and
made
recommendations
for
funding
the
criteria
for
funding
and
the
recommendations
can
be
found
in
the
package
before

M
M
M
An
estimated
3
400
artists

4
800
volunteers
will
have
the
opportunity
to
contribute
their
creative
talents
to
belleville
in
2022
a
little
under
a
third
of
the
artist
opportunity
will
be
paid
and
the
total
contribute
volunteer.
Labels
out
is
equivalent
to
about
62
full-time
paid
per
session
next
slide.
Please.
M
B
Chair
huey,
thank
you
so
much
for
being
with
us
here
tonight.
We
appreciate
your
presentation
and
especially
appreciate
the
hard
work
that
the
arts
commission
has
done.
I
read
these
recommendations
and
they
seem
very
solid
to
me
very
well
thought
out.
I'm
going
to
let
council
member
stokes
speak
since
he's
the
liaison
to
the
arts,
commission,
council,
member
stokes.
N
Yes,
thank
you
mayor
and
thank
you,
maria
and
lori,
really
glad
to
have
you
on
board.
This
is
your
first
presentation
and
we're
delighted
to
have
you
and
make
the
transition,
and
the
commission
has
really
worked
hard.
It's
a
great
group
and
they're
working
with,
as
we
do
in
a
lot
of
these
things,
with
a
lot
more
interest
and
and
need
and
we
can
supply.
N
But
it's
been
a
very
special
year
in
terms
of
the
way
they've
looked
at
all
of
these
groups
and-
and
I
think
they've
leveraged
that
money
in
a
very
effective
way
and
again
it's
a
good
group
and
we're
looking
forward
to
as
it's
growing
much
you
know
the
numbers
are
growing
and
the
population,
the
activity
in
bellevue
and
all
stuff.
N
That's
going
on
that
the
arts
and
and
are
involved
in,
has
been
exciting
and
we're
looking
forward
to
the
2022
partnership
special
projects-
and
I
was
really
accelerating
that
I'm
hoping
next
year,
we
can
take
a
look
at
you
know,
budget
time
and
all
that
and
see
where
we
can
go
on
that.
But
for
this
year
it's
just
fantastic.
N
What
we've
come
up
with
and
one
of
the
ones,
that's
really
neat-
is
the
putting
these
wraps
on
boxes
and
things
different
places
that
keep
people
from
putting
a
graffiti
on
there
permanently,
but
also
you
walk
by
and
you
see
wow
this
is.
This
is
really
cool.
It's
arts,
you
know
in
an
industrial
type
type
setting.
So
it's
a
lot
of
really
exciting
things
going
on.
So
I
would
would
this
be
a
perfect
now
to
move
this,
and
then
we
have
a
discussion,
sure
go
ahead
and
make
a
motion.
B
O
Thank
you,
chairperson
maria
lavree.
I
have
a
question
regarding
the
evaluation
of
your
grants.
You
mentioned
the
two
outside
judges.
What
are
the
opportunity
for
people
to
become
outside
judges.
M
Lori
I'll
refer
that
question
to
you
yeah.
I.
L
Might
have
to
circle
back
to
you
councilmember
lee.
I
wasn't
here
at
the
city,
yet
when
those
outside
participants
were
selected,
although
at
any
point,
if
somebody
has
interest,
they
can
absolutely
reach
out
to
me.
I
know
that
we
are
looking
for
folks
to
round
out
the
commission
members
who
have
expertise
in
the
arts.
P
P
My
question
is
this:
when
I
look
at
some
of
the
smaller
organizations
and
I'm
wondering
whether
these
events
will
still
happen
when
we
only
provide
22
percent
of
the
funding
for
them,
like
the
hawaiian
performing
arts
group
and
several
others
on
here,
so
I
guess
my
question
is:
as
we
look
at
these
grants,
do
we
follow
back
up
with
them
to
make
sure
that
they
are
able
to
find
the
additional
funds
to
be
able
to
actually
put
on
the
programs,
because
I
could
see
where
some
of
the
larger
organizations
are
getting
the
60
70
of
the
funding,
but
some
of
the
smaller
ones
appear
to
be
much
smaller
funded
and
it
seems
like
they
might
be
the
ones
that
might
need
more
help
and
funding
and
to
be
able
to
put
on
the
event.
L
It's
an
excellent
question.
Councilmembers
on
we
do
follow
up
with
every
single
grantee.
There's
a
there's,
a
variety
of
ways
that
organizations
adapt.
Sometimes
they
might
scale
down
the
project.
Sometimes
they
find
additional
funds
in
other
places.
There
is
also
an
element
of
as
we're
going
through
the
grants.
Thinking
about
implementation
and
those
seem
like
they're,
going
to
have
high
impact
and
really
are
easy
to
implement.
L
P
B
Okay,
well
lori,
it's
nice
to
have
you
here,
jesse!
Thank
you
and
chair
hui.
Thank
you
so
much
for
this
presentation.
I
think
we're
ready
to
vote
all
those
in
favor
say:
aye.
Q
B
Okay,
we
are
on
to
council
business
and
new
initiatives,
so
council,
member
stokes.
This
is
your
night.
I
guess
councilmember
stokes.
You
are
now
the
star
of
this
item
as
the
appointed
representative
to
the
board
of
the
cascade
water
alliance-
and
I
know
you've
been
listening
to
feedback
from
the
council
to
make
your
recommendation
at
the
next
meeting.
We
ask
that
you
propose
or
educate
the
council
on
nav
odle's
recommendation.
B
I
know
you
provided
that
the
council
with
wreck
with
the
link
to
the
recording
of
the
meeting
and
all
the
materials-
and
I
am
going
to
let
you
report
back
to
us
here
and
and
if
anybody
has
additional
feedback
to
council
member
stokes,
anything
that
we
didn't
get
a
chance
to
bring
up
last
week,
we
will
have
a
chance
to
do
that
tonight.
So
go
ahead.
Councilmember
stokes.
N
Yeah,
thank
you,
madam
mayor,
and
I
want
to
thank
the
council
for
taking
this
time
to
consider
this
this
issue,
and
I
really
appreciate
the
thoughtful
feedback
and
the
questions
and
it's
you
know.
Sometimes
these
things
come
along
and
you
you've
been
working
on
them,
but
and
then
you
asked
have
questions
and
I
think
it's
always
helpful.
The
cascade
staff,
the
city
staff,
I
and
others
have
been
working
on
this
and
I
think
it's
been
very
healthy
to
do
that.
N
Additional
time
has
really
been
good
in
getting
getting
us
kind
of
straight
down
on
this
and
and
the
continuing
discussion,
both
with,
as
I
said,
with
the
members
and
the
staff
for
both
the
utilities
and
cascade,
has
been
really
good.
You
know
the
water
supply
development
fund
concept
has
been
around
for
a
long
time
and
we've
had
numerous
meetings
about
this
and
staff
from
the
city
from
bellevue
and
and
council
members
and
community
members
board
members
and
everybody
and
in
the
region
have
been
involved
in
these.
N
Sometimes
we've
had
some
that
are,
you
know,
half
a
day
with
a
small
group,
maybe
30
40
people,
and
then
some
with
you
know
a
couple
of
hundred
people
and
this
issue
of
the
future,
which
is
what
built
cascade
was
developed
for,
is
always
been
at
the
forefront
and
the
water
supply
development
fund,
then
in
2019,
starting
in
2020
being
put
together
and
and
worked
on,
and
all
of
that
work
has
been
taking
place
again
with
everybody
in
is
involved
in
this,
including
council
members
again
who
have
and
people
who
go
to
the
you
know
cascade
board
meetings
they're,
always
people
available.
N
So
this
is
not
something.
That's
just
come
up
recently.
It's
a
long-term
program,
and
I
think
it's
you
know
the
driver
of
so
we
of
this
whole
thing
was
to
have
a
voice
and
vote
in
our
future
water
supply,
and
this
is
this
is
something
like
we
talk
a
lot
in
bellevue
about
looking
forward
to
the
future,
and
we
do
that.
We've
done
that
in
downtown
development.
N
We've,
you
know
with
the
wedding
cake
thing,
as
we
mentioned
earlier,
was
just
a
kind
of
a
concept
back
then
years
ago,
and
we
do
a
lot
of
this
type
of
work,
and
this
is
the
same
thing,
but
this
is.
This
is
unusual
because
you're
talking
about
doing
something,
that's
60
years
out
and
none
of
us
are
going
to
be
around
when
this
happens.
But
what
will
be
around
what
this
plan
is
is
that
we
will
have
adequate
water.
N
We
will
have
rates
that
are,
are
rational
and
we
will
have
a
much
better
community
and
one
that
we
can't
even
imagine
what
it's
going
to
look
like
now,
but
in
the
future.
So
that's
that's
the
whole
concept.
N
So,
of
course
you
know
we
wanted
to
have
a
voice
and
vote
in
our
own.
As
I
said
in
our
own
future
on
this,
and
we
didn't
want
to
rely
on
seattle,
we
didn't
want
to
rely
on
others
to
dictate
our
future.
So
I
went
back
and
had
a
lot
of
discussions
with
the
cascade
board
and
we
had
a
meeting
on
november
17
and
the
board
carefully
considered
the
bellevue
utilities
proposal
provided
feedback
to
me.
It
reaffirmed
the
board
member's
desire
to
implement
the
water
supply
development
fund
as
soon
as
possible.
N
The
board
asked
that
class
cascade
share
their
feedback
with
you,
and
I
hope
you
read
the
email
memo
sent
to
you
by
ray
hoffman
on
behalf
of
the
board
members.
It
contains
a
lot
more
detail,
and
you
know
this
anything
you
want
to
really
know
about
the
cascade
and
how
it's
all
put
together
is
in
this
document.
That's
I
came
to
you
and,
and
this
course
a
lot
more
detail
to
get
into
the
board.
N
Members
also
asked
specifically
that
that
I
share
with
you
their
continued
commitment
to
a
regional
approach
to
water
supply
and
the
sound
business
practices
and
prudent
financial
principles
demonstrated
by
cascade
cascade's,
been
directly
working
on
this.
N
As
I
said,
since
2020
and
the
member
cities
and
district
and
staff
have
been
involved
in
this
all,
along
and
everybody's
really
high
and
highly
engaged
in
this,
it's
been
a
lot
of
work,
but
it's
an
example
of
great
regional
collaboration.
I
could
cite
you
know,
half
a
dozen
or
more
similar
things
that
bellevue
does
the
fund.
Is
it
really
is
very
similar
to
our
own
utilities,
r
r
fund,
this
fund,
fun
finances
the
replacement
of
infrastructure,
and
I
remember
going
down
to
seeing
this.
N
The
first
year
when
I
came
on,
I
was
liaison
to
the
utilities
through
the
environmental
services
and
seeing
this
chart
for
75
years
and
replacement
and
funding
now
and
a
significant
amount
of
money
in
our
that
we
charge
for
our
water
supplies
as
part
of
this,
and
it's
a
similar
concept
here,
except
that
we're
replacing
water
that
has
will
get
at
some
point
either
not
available
from
a
certain
source
or
be
more
costly
with
another.
So
it's
the
same
type
of
concept,
and
I
admired
the
utilities
utilization
of
that.
N
In
fact,
it
was
something
that
kind
of
was
inspiring
to
do
this,
and
this
water
to
supply
development
fund
benefits
all
future
water
supply
options
it
every
future
option
we
have
before
us
is
expensive.
Water
from
other
purveyors
is
going
to
get
more
expensive.
Water
from
a
lake
is
going
to
be
expensive,
water
anywhere
is
going
to
be.
You
know
a
commodity
we
need
to
have
so
even
with
contributions
to
the
fund.
Cascades
rates
are
forecast,
though
I
mean
because
the
way
we're
financing
it
at
or
below
inflation
for
the
next
10
years.
N
N
There's
this
tremendous
amount
of
data
in
here
that
shows
how
this
whole
thing
is
put
together
and
again,
it's
a
very
good
example
of
what
bellevue
does
well
and
that's
have
good
decision
making
both
private
and
public,
based
on
good
business
practices
and
financial
strength.
N
Delaying
contributions
to
the
fund
for
even
a
couple
years
creates
greater
rate
pressure
later
for
bellevue's
customers.
It's
a
simple
thing.
Anyone
in
finance
knows
either
if
you
start
a
fund
and
you
have
a
long-range
plan,
you
start
a
fund
now
the
total
amount
accumulated
in
the
cost
and
all
will
be
less
than
it's
much
better
than
waiting
on
putting
things
off
because
you
lose
the
the
impact
of
the
interest
and
you
know
putting
it
together.
N
Our
regional
partners,
again,
as
I
said,
are
really
ready
to
go
on
this
and
we're
talking
about
just
for
the
public
and
you're.
Remembering
we're
talking
about
mayor
of
members
of
the
board
mayor
angela
bernie
from
redmond
mayor
benny,
sweet
from
kirkland
mayor,
mary
lou,
paulie
from
issaquah
mayor
allen,
eckland
from
tuck
willow
and
the
vice
president
lloyd
warren
of
the
samantha
plateau
water.
N
Who
also
was,
I
think,
the
first
director
and
very
much
involved
in
the
establishment
of
utilities
program
and
all
in
bellevue
and
very
much
very
much
behind
this
and
the
president
of
the
skyway
water,
john,
all.
So
all
of
the
board
members
are
ready
to
go
on
this
and
believe
this
is
the
way
that
the
region
and
their
cities
will
will
go
far.
You
know
with
this
and
have
water
supplies
and
prosper.
N
So
you
know
it's
it's
just
something.
That's
the
time
has
come
to
put
it
together
and
the
financing
is
sound.
N
The
issues
that
have
been
raised
about
control
are,
I
think,
to
some
extent
some
misuninterpretations
and
things
we
need
to
work
on
and,
as
I
said,
and
I
don't
want
to
go
into
a
lot
of
detail
on
this
when
I
miss
time
but
the
cascade
process,
the
board,
it's
all
very
transparent,
it's
there.
The
meetings
are
in
public.
We
understand
all
the
cities
want
to
make
sure
that
this
is
done
well
and
and
again.
N
Bellevue
is,
is
the
leader
in
this,
but
we
are
partners
and
we're
working
with
this,
and
it
is
something
that
we
will
look
back
and
be
very
proud
that
we
put
this
in
place.
Okay,.
N
Anyhow,
that's
I
mean
there
are
a
lot
of
things
to
talk
about,
but
I
think
basically,
this
is
let's
see
where
I
put
that
it
was
one
thing
if
he
wanted
to.
I
could
talk
about.
You
know
the
question
that
came
up
the
first
one
was:
why
are
bellevue's
rates
so
high
just
real
quickly?
Bellevue
has
the
fourth
highest
bill
of
all
the
25
utilities
that
gets
the
out
of
water
and
we've
looked
at
their.
N
They
have
their
charts
and
everything
and
the
other
cascade
member's
bills
are
all
lower,
ranging
from
kirkland
at
52
about
52
dollars,
and
ours
is
about
64.
to
redmond,
who
has
the
lowest
bill
of
all
at
31
or
32,
but
they
have
a
water
supply.
So
it's
it's
a
little
different
and
they
most
of
them
don't
have.
They
do
not
have
the
same
investment
we
make
in
replacement
in
the
long
run,
and
they
they
have
different
ways
that
they
pay
for.
N
If
there
was
a,
if
cascade,
actually
made
a
a
big
part
of
bellevue's
rates
and
not
affect
the
others,
then
they
wouldn't
be
charging
us.
The
same
thing
they'd
be
charging
more.
N
They
charged
the
same
thing
for
us
and
for
kirkland
and
redwood,
and
each
city
does
and
puts
things
in
and
we
do
charge
and,
as
I
said
before,
something
that
is
very,
very
good
to
make
sure
we
can
replace
and
seattle
has
a
huge
problem
with
replacement,
which
is
one
of
the
reasons
where
I
want
to
make
sure
we
have
something
for
this
in
the
long
run,
that
seattle
has
a
a
long,
a
big
bill
to
pay
in
terms
of
their
old
infrastructure.
N
So,
overall,
this
is
something
that
again
has
been
done
in
the
public.
It's
been
open,
we
have
sound
legal
advice,
we
have
financial
advice.
This
is
a
collaborative
effort
that
is
very
unique
in
a
lot
of
ways,
and
it's
just
something
that
this
is
the
real.
You
know
bellevue
way
to
work
on
things
at
a
high
level
and
to
actually
get
out
and
work
with
the
the
rest
of
the
region,
because
we're
all
part
of
the
same,
just
like
with
the
the
innovation
triangle.
N
Just
like
the
transportation
things
we
do
just
like
arts
things.
We
do
just
like
arch.
Q
N
Anyhow,
so
I
fully
you
know,
I
think
it's
really
moving.
Well
and
again.
I
want
to
say
that
the
conversation
has
been
very
good,
and
I
appreciate
that
I'm
looking
forward
to
continuing
having
conversation
both
with
council
and
staff
and
and
the
rest
of
the
region,
so
thank.
B
You
okay.
Thank
you.
Thanks
for
that
report
back,
I
will
tell
you
that
I
did
a
lot
of
talking
with
our
regional
partners
and
everybody
I
spoke
with,
had
support
strong
support
for
cascades
recommendation
and
for
me
you
know.
The
one
of
the
most
important
aspects
is
when
I
think
about
climate
change,
and
I
realize
that
seattle's
water
supply
is
from
a
glacier
at
3,
000
feet
and
lake
taps
is
at
14
000
feet.
B
I
have
a
lot
more
confidence
with
the
latter
one
if
we
should
need
if
we
should
need
it
down
the
road,
so
I
will
be
supporting
the
recommendation
well
and
we're
not
voting
on
this.
I'm
just
telling
you
council,
member
stokes
for
your
own
information.
Is
there
anybody
else?
Who
would
like
to
ask
a
question
or
speak
on
this
councilmember
robertson?
B
R
And
thank
you,
member
councilmember
stokes,
for
your
service
on
the
cascade
board.
I
do
agree
that
partnership
is
great
and
I
I
think
that
this
partnership
with
cascade
the
creation
of
cascade
it
absolutely
was
needed
to
plan
for
future
water
supply.
The
projections
looked
very
different,
then,
to
me,
though
this
seems
premature.
R
While
we
are
still
negotiating
our
agreements
with
seattle
and
tacoma,
it
feels
a
little
bit
like
starting
an
irrevocable
college
fund
for
a
kid
you
don't
have
and
you're,
not
sure
you
want
kids
or
that
you,
you
know,
so
that's
it
just
seems
a
little
premature
and
there's
very
little
risk
to
waiting
the
two
years
to
see
if
we
really
want
to
develop
this
and
the
reason
I
think
this
is
important.
R
It's
the
impact
on
rates,
of
course,
but
you
look
at
the
cost
of
housing
and
what
are
the
things
that
we
can
do
to
make
housing
more
affordable?
One
of
the
things
that
impacts
the
cost
of
housing
is
one-time
fees
that
people
pay
when
they
bring
a
new
housing
unit
onto
the
market.
Those
fees
are
things
like
permit
fees
and
impact
fees,
but
those
things
are
also
things
like
utility
connection
fees.
The
cascade
connection
fee
for
bellevue
residents
is
6807
for
every
single
family
equivalent
today.
R
Now
that
does
include
money
for
towards
this
future
development
of
lake
taps,
but
only
861
million.
So
if
we,
if
cascade
moves
forward
and
the
three
billion
dollars
is
cranked
into
that
formula,
I
would
seriously
like
to
know
how
much
that
is
going
to
affect
the
connection
fee
and
I'd
like
to
see
cascade.
R
Do
that
evaluation
and
provide
that
information
to
the
board
and
have
that
filter
back
to
us,
because
I
think
it
could
be
significant.
It's
one
more
thing
that
makes
housing
less
affordable.
R
On
the
other
hand,
if
the
board,
after
con
after
finishing
negotiations
with
tacoma
in
seattle,
decides
that
lake
taps
isn't
needed
anytime
soon,
that
861
million
could
be
removed
from
the
formula
and
therefore
the
connection
fee
could
be
dropped
which
would
increase
housing,
affordability
in
our
region.
So
I
think
that
that's
a
really
important,
really
important
thing.
Keeping
options
open
at
this
point,
I
think,
is
important.
R
R
So
my
my
advice
is
that
it's
the
prudent
thing
to
do
to
wait
to
make
sure
that
we
have
a
kid
and
that
kid
you
know
that
we
actually
want
to
have
kids,
and
we
have
a
kid
aka
that
we
need
this
this
to
be
brought
online
and
developed
before
we
start
putting
money
aside
that
we
then
can't
move
out
of
those
funds
and
taking
money
from
the
ratepayers.
R
So
that's
where
I
am
on
it.
I
do
very
much
appreciate
the
regional
aspect
of
this.
I
don't
think
it
hurts
the
region
or
those
relationships
if
we
waited
the
two
years.
Bellevue
has
a
veto
on
this
committee
for
a
reason,
and
it's
because
we
are
more
than
half
of
the
of
the
money
that
goes
into
paying
for
cascade,
so
I
don't
think
we
should
use
it
often,
and
I
think,
delaying
two
years
would
be
a
really
good
reason
and
a
fair
thing
to
do
so.
R
B
Okay
got
that
council
member
stokes.
Maybe
you
can
bring
back
some
information
to
the
council
on
that
as
well.
Well,
I'm
going
to
count
on
council
member
barksdale,
followed
by
deputy.
D
Mayor,
oh
thank
you
mayor,
so
I
also
support
it.
You
know,
I
think,
the
one
thing
that
that
sort
of
resonated
like
because
I
know
I
brought
up
before
the
idea
of
having
our
own
fun,
but
the
fact
that
that
we
have
the
authority
that
we
do
over
the
fund
and
that
we
can
get
the
money.
The
boy
has
a
board.
D
The
board
can
choose
to
dissolve
the
fund
and
redistribute
the
fund
money
back
to
the
member
cities
and
given
the
opportunity
cost
here
in
terms
of
the
8.8
million
in
net
losses,
I
mean
I
just
I
just
think
we
should
go
ahead
and
proceed.
I
mean
I
think
we
have
the
necessary
ability
to
to
reverse
if
we
need
to
so
I
support
moving
forward
with
contributing
to
the
fund.
F
Thank
you,
mayor,
yeah,
councilman
stokes.
Thank
you
for
your
service
on
this
board
and
then
I
also
want
to
thank
nab
hotel,
who
did
a
great
job.
I
at
least
I
think
so
in
terms
of
her
analysis
on
this
on
this
fund
and
our
relationship
with
with
cascade
and
and
some
of
their
concerns
about
the
creation
of
this
fund
and
specifically,
what
it
means
for
bellevue
and
bellevue
ratepayers.
J
F
You
know
I
think
councilmember
stokes
makes
some
some
good
arguments
there
in
terms
of
why
we
shouldn't
move
forward.
But
for
me
I
still
didn't
hear
the
the
kind
of
the
quintessential
answer
in
terms
of
we've
owned.
This
asset
or
cascade
has
owned
this
asset
for
16
years,
and
now
we
find
that
the
time
is
appropriate
to
create
this
fund
and
I'm
still
unsure
as
why
now.
Why
are
we
doing
this?
Now?
F
F
People
are
having
a
hard
time,
let
alone
paying
their
mortgage
about
paying
utilities,
especially
when
our
water
demand
is
going
down,
especially
when
we're
only
using
about
60
of
the
water
that
we
purchase
right
now
so
and
we
have
a
contract
that
goes
through
20
20
42,
if
I
remember
the
date
correctly
so
so
so.
For
me,
I'm
kind
of
in
the
same
camp
as
councilman
robertson,
where,
for
me,
I'm
still
not
quite
understanding
why?
Why?
Now
still?
F
I
I
guess
the
best
argument
is
that
this
would
give
us
some
leverage
in
some
of
those
negotiations
with
with
with
seattle
and
tacoma,
that
we
are
serious
about
the
development
of
of
late
taps.
But
again
that
question
is
not
hasn't,
really
been
answered
for
me.
F
So,
and
I
don't
know
if
we're
gonna
have
any
back
and
forth
here
mayor
at
all,
I
think
that's
kind
of
where
I'm
sitting
right
now,
but
again
I
appreciate
again
the
councilman
stokes,
coming
back
with
with
his
argument
here,
but
again
really
want
to
call
out
the
great
work
by
my
knob
and
her
team
on
this
and
looking
out
for
the
rapiers
of
bellevue.
Thank
you.
B
Thank
you,
councilmembers,
on
followed
by
councilmember
lee.
P
Yes,
thank
you
mayor.
Thank
you,
councilmember
stokes,
for
all
your
work
on
cascade
over
the
years.
P
So
I
believe
that
from
a
fiscal
responsibility
standpoint
which
our
my
colleagues
talk
about
quite
a
bit,
that
we
should
be
supporting
the
cascade,
and
I
appreciate
the
fact
that
they
have
had
thoughtful
consideration
of
the
option
that
was
brought
forward
by
our
utilities,
director
nov
hotel,
so
that
we
can
actually
provide
multiple
points
of
view
and
options
for
consideration
by
the
cascade
board.
And
then,
when
the
board
has
done
that
thoughtful
consideration,
we
should
be
supporting
that
effort
as
partners.
So
I
support
this.
Thank
you.
Thank.
O
Thank
you
very
much
as
somebody
who
has
been
around
for
a
while,
since
the
formation
of
cascade
water
alliance
and
I
have
respected-
and
I
feel
it's
the
importance
of
this
partnership
and
I
look
at
it.
O
I
agree
100,
it's
a
partnership
when
you
collaborate
it's
for
the
good
of
the
ourselves,
the
city
developer,
to
begin
with,
because
we
don't
want
to
rely
on
somebody
else
on
a
very
important
resource,
which
is
the
cost
of
money,
and
so
it
makes
a
lot
of
sense,
and
once
we
started
it,
other
cities
in
the
region
felt
you
know
we
can
form
a
partnership
and
work
together.
That
makes
sense.
O
So
I
I
respect
all
the
people
that
worked
on
it
and
the
staff
I
mean
you
know
I
didn't
get
on
the
cascade
in
this
kind
of
detail
until
you
know,
since
what
2020.?
So
I
have
you
know
continued
to
have
my
respect
for
the
staff
work
that
they've
done,
and
I
respect
the
elected
officials.
You
know
for
their
due
diligence,
obviously
because
it's
something
that's
important
to
them
as
well
individually
and
at
the
same
time
you
know.
I
believe
that
our
staff
has
like
some
great
work
and
especially
with
their
analysis
recommendation.
O
I
cannot
find
any
fault
in
it
and
I
I
think
that
the
the
question
is
when
we
emphasize
some
partnership.
That
means
we
need
to
really
work
together.
We
need
to
collaborate
and
we
need
to
have
communication.
We
need
to
know
each
other.
We
need
to
communicate
maybe
more
frequently
and
I'm
kind
of
dismayed
and
disappointed
that
we
actually
have
this
kind
of
perception.
Now,
the
last
few
weeks
we
we
have
a
you
know,
argument
or
disagreement,
but
it's
basically,
I
think
we
have
the
same
goal.
O
The
question
is
that
maybe
we
did
not
communicate
well
enough,
that
the
elected
have
a
little
bit
of
a
different
understanding,
we're
all
about.
You
know
individual
cities
with
particular
characteristics.
We
have
our
own
needs
and
we,
you
know
we
sometimes
have
differences.
That's
fine!
That's
what
policy
is
about.
We
need
to
talk
about
it.
We
need
to
figured
it
out,
then
we
need
to
understand
and
we
have
to
stop
supporting
us
very
obviously,
and
then
we
can
move
just
makes
decisions
made
known
and
come
up
with
a
good.
O
You
know
I
won't
even
use
the
compromise,
but
it's
a
good
consensus.
You
know
how
we
address
it
and
I
appreciate,
for
example,
mayor
mary
lou
paulie
from
issaquah
mentioned
that
time
change
things
have
changed
and
it's
a
time
to
pivot
and
pivot
to
see
what
we
can
do.
That's
better,
based
on
current
information
based
on
what's
good
for
each
jurisdiction,
then
we
can
communicate,
discuss
it
and
come
up
with
the
solution.
O
I
feel
that
it's
I'm
glad
we
have
gone
through
this
the
last
couple
weeks,
because
I
believe
that
has
provided
us
the
opportunity
to
have
this
kind
of
dialogue,
communication
and
discussion.
We
may
not
all
agree
to
whatever
finite.
Ultimately,
you
know
we
agree
specifically
what's
good
for
bellevue,
what's
good
for
ramen
kirkland,
it
may
be
a
little
bit
different,
but
that's
fine.
B
O
That's
the
problem
with
me.
I
would
like
to
just
better
communicate
rather
talk
about
things
and
come
up
with
our
differences
and,
if
there's
any,
and
what
what
we
can
do
together
and
I
believe
that
whichever
recommendations
made
it's
going
to
be
okay.
The
question
is:
what
give
us
the
flexibility,
the
options?
O
I
agree
with
the
council
member
robertson
and
council
member
newer
house
because
they
pointed
out
what
belgium
is
looking
at.
Well
he's
looking
at
utility
rates,
people
are
feeling
their
rates
are
going
up
and
the
people
who
are
affected
the
most
are
the
people
who
are
looking
at
affordable
housing
for
the
rates
that
the
taxes
they'll
be
paying.
So
I
believe
that
in
the
short
term
short
run,
this
may
be
something
we
need
to
address.
But
how
do
we
address
it?
That's
another
matter.
O
B
Thank
you
very
much.
Okay,
everybody.
Thank
you
very
much
council
member
stokes,
you've
heard
feedback
from
everybody
on
the
council
and
a
good
question
by
councilmember
robertson
that
maybe
you
can
bring
an
answer
back
at
some
point,
but
thank
you
very
much
for
representing
us
on
cascade
next
on
our
agenda.
We
have
the
consent,
a
calendar.
Is
there
a
motion
to
approve
the
consent
calendar?
I.
B
B
S
You
mentioned
tonight,
council
will
be
provided
an
update
on
the
eastern
connection
project,
including
post
changes
for
redistributing
kinds
of
service
in
belgium.
S
T
Good
evening,
it's
a
pleasure
to
be
here
tonight
to
discuss
how
bus
tran
service
in
bellevue
will
change.
As
light
rail
comes
to
the
east
side
as
a
reminder,
even
after
light,
rail
service
begins
about
80
percent
of
transit.
Demand
in
bellevue
will
still
be
for
bus
connections,
so
those
connections
are
very
important.
T
So
we
have
brian,
henry
and
gunner
scott
from
metro
and
j.r
alexander
and
arthur
backus
from
sound
transit
and
they're,
going
to
run
you
through
these
draft
changes,
bellevue
staff-
I'll,
let
you
know,
did
analyze
these
draft
changes
and
verified
that
they're
aligned
with
bellevue's
priorities
in
the
transit
master
plan.
Still,
as
brad
mentioned,
there
are
a
few
routes
that
could
be
improved
even
more
and
those
are
listed
for
you
in
your
council
packet
staff
is
seeking
direction
from
council
to
draft
a
letter
to
transit
leadership,
underscoring
these
messages
about
bellevue's
transit
priorities.
T
U
Great
thanks
a
lot
lucy
jane
good
evening.
Everyone.
Thank
you
so
much
for
having
us
here
tonight.
My
name
is
brian
henry
and
I
work
in
metro's,
king
county
service,
team,
county
metro
service
planning
group
and
I'm
co-leading
the
east
link
connections
effort.
So
we're
really
happy
to
be
here
to
talk
to
you
about
it
tonight.
U
Hey
governor,
can
you
flip
to
the
next
slide?
Awesome
thanks,
so
we're
going
to
talk
a
little
bit
about
the
goals
and
the
scope
and
then
get
into
our
timeline
a
little
bit
later,
a
quick
touch
on
kind
of
the
east
link,
light
rail
and
then
get
into
the
meat
of
it.
What
we've
done
for
engagement
and
the
changes
that
we're
proposing
and
then
we'll
touch
at
the
end
on
a
little
bit
of
the
capital
improvements
that
we've
been
doing
for
bus
rail
integration.
V
Thank
you,
brian,
and
excuse
me
for
the
lack
of
camera.
My
connection
is
weird:
it
has
my
laptop
singing
like
mariah
carey
during
christmas
time.
We
don't
need
any
of
that.
So
right
now
we're
going
to
talk
about
eastland
connections
goals,
so
we
have
three
main
tenants
of
our
project,
so
we
have
improve,
inform,
engage
and
empower
and
to
deliver.
So,
let's
start
with
improve.
V
So
the
idea
around
eastland
connections
is
to
improve
our
mobility
for
our
priority
populations
right
and
how
we
need
to
find
that
is
our
bipod
communities,
so
that's
black
indigenous
and
other
persons
of
color,
as
well
as
other
vulnerable
marginalized
communities.
You
know
those
who
are
low-income
immigrants
and
other
communities,
so
what
we
want
to
do
is
center
them
at
like
for
this
process.
V
Right
and
part
of
that
is
also
to
equally
inform
folks
from
those
you
know,
marginalized
communities
right
and
being
able
to
give
them
the
power
to
have
a
say
in
how
they
want
their
transportation
design
and
giving
those
who
don't
necessarily
always
have
to
see
at
the
table.
I
see
at
the
table
to
guide
us
and
how
we
go
about
designing
a
new
transit
network
to
feed,
into
link
right
and
to
kind
of
create
that
world-class
transportation
system
which
we
plan
to
deliver,
and
so
what
does
that
look
like
right?
V
So
we
want
to
be
able
to
deliver
integrated
service
that
responds
very
well
to
link
expansion.
You
want
to
minimize
the
duplication
of
bus
service
bus
services,
along
with
link
to
improve
those
local
neighborhood
connections
and
to
be
consistent
with
any
of
the
tenants
from
metro
connect
or
sound
transit's
network
plan
or
any
other
future
mobility
projects
that
we
may
have
coming
down
the
pipe
next
supply.
V
U
Thanks
a
lot
thanks,
a
lot
jr
so
take
a
quick
look
at
the
study
area.
This
map
emphasizes
the
huge
breadth
of
this
study
area
and
the
many
cities
within
it.
The
area
was
defined
by
study
area
roots
and
those
were
selected
based
on
their
proximity
to
new
stations
or
their
proximity
to
the
pathway
of
the
light
rail
overall.
It
illustrates
the
transformational
nature
of
12
new
stations,
11
spread
across
the
east
side
and
the
opportunity
we
have
to
enhance
mobility
among
many
many
neighborhoods
work
centers
as
well
as
to
and
from
light
rail.
U
So
that's
just
a
little
bit
about
our
study
area
and
now
I
will
hand
it
over
to
gunner.
U
G
Yes
good
evening,
council,
so
we're
getting
closer
every
day
to
having
link
service
to
bellevue
and
the
east
side.
As
you
see
on
the
map,
the
two
line
will
open
to
bellevue
and
the
east
side
in
2023,
with
a
further
extension
to
southeast
and
downtown
redmond
in
2024,
there
will
be
12
new
stations
to
the
east
side,
with
link
trains
running
every
eight
minutes
at
peak
times
with
service
20
hours
a
day.
G
The
two
line
is
the
second
link
light
rail
line
to
operate
in
the
region.
Hence
the
name
when
it's
complete
it
will
run
from
downtown
redmond
through
bellevue
all
the
way
up
to
north
gate.
It
will
then
extend
further
north
to
the
linwood
transit
center.
When
the
linwood
link
extension
opens
in
2024,
the
trains
will
run
independently
from
the
line
trains
from
the
east
side
to
the
international
district
chinatown
station,
and
then
from
that
station.
G
They,
the
two
one
in
two
lines,
will
emerge
and
share
the
same
track
for
a
combined
frequency
of
four
minutes.
As
you
can
see
on
the
on.
The
side
of
the
slide
will
be
about
an
18
minute
ride
from
downtown
bellevue
to
downtown
redmond
a
little
bit
over
20
minutes
from
downtown
bellevue
to
downtown
seattle
and
then
a
little
bit
less
than
an
hour
from
bellevue
to
the
seatac
airport.
G
W
Thank
you
arthur
I'm
gunner,
scott
with
king
county
metro,
community
engagement
and
arthur
bacchus,
who
just
presented
is
from
sound
transit
community
engagement
and
we,
along
with
their
service
planning
teams,
have
been
working
very
closely
on
this
project
together,
including
doing
our
engagement,
which
means
that
we
got
to
be
able
to
combine
some
amazing
resources
to
get
the
word
out
about
this
project.
W
We
did
a
mailing
for
phase
two,
which
was
our
survey.
Looking
at
some
draft
network
proposals
and
55
000
went
out
to
bellevue
for
a
variety
of
zip
codes
in
that
area.
We
also
did
virtual
briefings,
as
many
of
you
mentioned
in
some
of
your
other
presentations
around
covid.
Most
of
our
work
in
the
past
has
been
in
person,
whether
that's
getting
on
the
bus
and
having
conversations
or
being
at
community
events
because
of
code
we've
been
unable
to
do
that.
W
So
we've
been
looking
for
lots
of
ways
to
engage
the
community,
including
those
folks
that
may
not
be
as
digitally
connected,
and
we
did
that
through
partnering
with
community
groups
that
have
relationships
with
many
community
members,
particularly
those
in
those
priority
populations.
W
We
also
did
digital
and
ethic
media
ads
both
print
ethnic
media
ads
as
well
as
digital
ones.
We
have
we
had
an
outreach
toolkit
for
our
community
based
partners,
as
well
as
for
jurisdictions,
to
get
the
word
out
about
the
survey
and
also
the
online
open
houses.
We
put
up
bus,
stop
signs
again,
alerting
folks
to
the
survey
and
the
online
open
houses,
and
then
we
did
have
this
survey
in
and
our
plot
and
our
web
site
platform
is
in
eight
languages.
W
Well,
it
looks
low
with
one
percent
in
korean
or
chinese.
Let
me
just
translate
for
you
that
for
you,
we
actually
had
33
survey
responses
in
chinese
and
22
in
korean.
That
is
the
highest
number
of
survey
responses.
Metro
has
seen
in
a
language
other
than
english
or
spanish.
W
So
we
attribute
that
to
the
digital
ad
work.
We
did
also
partnering
with
those
community-based
organizations
such
as
the
chinese
information
center
hope
link
the
ethnic
chamber
as
well
as
the
indian
american
center.
So
we
did
quite
a
bit
of
work
within
the
constraints
of
kovid
to
get
the
word
out
and
we'll
continue
to
do
so
as
we
move
into
our
next
phase
starting
in
february,
and
I'm
going
to
pass
this
back
over
to
brian.
U
U
So
then,
for
different
regions
of
the
study
area,
the
board
defines
specific
priorities,
so
the
ones
shown
here
for
the
area
around
bellevue
and
redmond
are
on
this
slide
show.
So,
basically,
looking
for
you
know
easy
transfers
that
are
frequent
and
safe
opportunities
to
transfer
is
something
also
worth
highlighting
so
that
people
can
get
to
more
different
local
locations,
but
also
around
the
region
and
also
routes
that
offer
speed,
reliability
and
really
having
those
direct
paths
to
to
speed
up
that
travel.
U
So,
in
addition
to
our
project
goals,
these
priorities
played
a
strong
role
in
guiding
the
proposal
that
we've
been
sharing
with
the
public.
In
addition
to
other
engagement
from
the
first
phase,
so
now
in
the
second
phase,
like
gunner
said,
we've
been
gathering
feedback
about
those
changes.
U
We're
going
to
talk
a
little
bit
about
that
tonight,
but
first
I'm
going
to
flip
to
the
next
slide.
Where
we'll
see
a
proposed
network
in
the
bellevue
area.
Jr,
do
you
want
to
start
off
with
some
highlights
for
sound
transit
service?
Sure.
V
So
what
we're
going
to
do
is
we're
going
to
reroute
the
554
to
serve
south
bellevue,
as
well
as
downtown
bellevue
stations,
utilizing
that
former
route
550
corridor
down
bellevue
work,
I'm
sorry
wa
right
so
being
able
to
still
have
frequent
bus
service
which
will
be
operating
at
10
minutes
at
the
peaking
15
minutes
on
off-pea
times,
we'll
still
provide
those
important
connections
throughout
the
city
of
bellevue,
as
well
as
like
connecting
to
both.
You
know,
I'm
sorry
connecting
to
the
two
line
of
two
different
stations.
V
So
that's
one
of
the
benefits
yeah,
I
would
say
that's.
The
major
benefit
is
to
like
provide
a
lot
of
local
connections
to
link,
but
still
having
that
frequent
service
traveling
down
bellevue.
But
now
let
me
kick
it
back
over
to
brian.
U
Great
thanks
jr,
so,
in
addition
to
the
project,
goals
and
priorities
that
were
guiding
the
project,
the
bellevue
transit
master
plan
was
a
key
reference
for
planners
in
this
process
and
there's
a
number
of
examples
where
this
process,
where
this
proposal
aligns
with
the
transit
master
plan.
This
includes
the
new
route
270
from
uw
to
downtown
bellevue,
with
a
more
reliable
frequent
service
and
increased
frequency
like
like
jr,
was
just
mentioning
between
issaquah
and
bellevue
on
on
the
revised
554..
U
A
couple
other
examples
are
increased
route,
240
frequency
between
renton
and
factoria,
as
well
as
routes
203
and
241,
connecting
factoria
directly
to
the
south
bellevue
station
and,
finally,
there's
continued
frequent
service,
but
with
more
direct
pathways
for
faster
service
on
the
route
245
and
the
v-line.
This
connects
crossroads
with
redmond
technology
station,
the
overlake
village
station
and
bellevue
college.
U
So
just
given
the
time
available,
the
text
here
highlights
some
key
benefits
from
the
proposed
network
on
a
broader
scale.
So
not
only
are
we
connecting
many
of
these
routes
to
link
stations
or
increasing
frequency
on
five
different
routes,
as
well
as
providing
service
for
more
of
the
day
on
four
different
routes.
So
that's
that's
kind
of
a
broader
overview.
U
Next,
we'll
on
this
next
slide.
Here,
I
just
want
to
highlight
some
proposed
changes
where
they're
they're
key
changes
where
newer
revised
routes
are
taking
over
connections
in
the
current
network.
There
are
a
lot
of
routes
in
bellevue,
a
lot
of
places
to
connect,
so
first,
the
270
and
the
240
are
taking
over
the
old
route,
271
connections
between
uw
and
bellevue
college,
as
well
as
escape.
U
So,
while
the
revised
some
like,
I
said
before
the
sound
transit
on
554,
then
it's
going
to
be
providing
that
fast,
frequent
connection
from
issac
law
to
the
south
bellevue
station,
as
well
as
downtown
bellevue.
Another
big
piece
is
the
route.
222
and
223
is
replacing
the
old
route
221.
So
that's
going
to
bring
strong
connections
to
link
and
increase
frequency.
U
U
So,
overall,
there
was
a
lot
of
support
for
these
changes
in
our
survey
from
what
we
heard
from
folks,
so
we're
going
to
move
into
providing
a
few
highlights
from
what
we
heard
from
the
community
on
particular
routes.
So
the
first
highlight
is
the
route
270..
U
U
There
were
also
a
lot
of
comments
on
the
survey
in
support
of
the
bellevue
way,
northeast
pathway,
which
would
serve
the
sophia
way,
women's
shelter
and
a
lot
of
other
resources
in
that
corridor
with
much
more
frequent
service,
as
well
as
new
service
on
the
freeway
stops
where
the
271
doesn't
currently
serve.
So
now,
I'm
going
to
kick
it
over
to
jr
to
talk.
If
you
wanted
to
add
anything
jr,
I
think
you
might
have
covered
a
lot
of
your
stuff
from
the
previous
slide.
V
V
So,
just
a
few
of
the
highlights
that
we
have
for
round
54.
yeah,
that's
pretty
much
it
there.
The
next
slide.
T
U
Yeah
thanks
jr
the
route
226
you
can
see
here
on
this
map.
It
had
65
support
for
these
changes.
U
People
noted
the
transfer
opportunities
and
the
straighter
path
through
lake
hills
and
a
new
connection,
both
the
south
bellevue
link
station,
so
that
was
a
that
was
a
a
popular
one
and
then
on
this
next
slide.
Here
also
highlight
the
route,
the
route
203
and
this
one
people
like,
because
it
provides
new
local
connections
between
issaquah
and
factoria
and
again
I'm
taking
folks
in
factoria
up
to
link.
U
So
having
noted
like
the
strong
support
for
many
changes,
I
do
want
to
add
that,
based
on
feedback
from
engagement
and
work
with
city
staff,
we
are
going
to
look
more
closely
at
a
couple
of
things
at
frequency
between
downtown
bellevue
and
eastgate
connections
in
victoria
and
pathways
and
connections
on
review,
revised
route,
249
west
of
downtown
madonna
and
clyde
hill.
U
So
there's
really
a
lot
of
great
feedback
and
we've
been
listening
to
folks
who
are
going
to
be
making
some
we're
going
to
be
making
changes
to
this
initial
proposed
network.
And
those
are
a
couple
areas
in
belgium
that
we'll
be
looking
at.
V
No
no
worries.
It's
you
know
it's
a
lot
of
people
talking
on
stage
right,
so
so
really
quick.
We're
going
to
quickly
highlight
some
station
area.
Capital
improvements,
so
just
like
the
overall
program
goal
is
to
really
improve
the
safety
convenience
of
visibility
at
our
bus
stops.
That
are
primarily
at
least
transfer
points
right
so
being
able
to
make
those
connections
to
transfers
a
lot
safer.
A
lot
more
reliable,
a
lot,
a
lot
more
frequent.
V
The
scope
of
the
project,
just
just
to
kind
of
like
give
a
little
bit
of
tidbits
as
into
more
like
to
newer,
stops,
upgraded
bus,
stops
and
link
stations,
so
we're
adding
more
shelters
and
benches
more
passenger
information
such
as
route
maps,
safety
components
such
as
better
lighting
and
real-time
information.
V
Real-Time
information
signs
with
new
extreme
inc
screens.
Forgive
me
tonight
a
little
tongue
tied,
but
so
part
of
that
also
is
specific
to
w
is
some
of
the
changes
will
come
at
our
east
main
and
wool
burning
station
so
being
able
to
have
those
upgraded
bus
stops
like
through
the
bus
stop
program
and
brian
is
going
to
touch
a
little
bit
on
speed
and
reliability.
U
W
Thank
you.
This
is
gunner
again,
I'm
just
going
to
talk
briefly
about
our
engagement
timeline
and
next
steps,
which
we've
mentioned
a
few
times,
but
we,
this
project
now,
is
moving
close
to
being
a
year
a
year
in
process,
at
least
in
this
particular
part
of
it,
and
we
did
a
needs
assessment,
as
we
talked
about
which
involved
a
survey
interviewing
community
stakeholders
and
also
convening
both
the
mobility
board.
But,
along
with
that,
a
partner
review
board
partner,
review
board
is
made
up
of
jurisdictional
leaders
and
some
some
some
folks
on.
W
This
call
might
actually
have
attended
a
partner
review
board,
but
also
large
employers,
institutions
non-profits
in
the
area
and
things
like
that.
W
We
then
service
planning
developed
that
service
concept
that
we've
been
talking
about
tonight
and
that
went
out
to
survey
as
well
as
other
conversations
we've
had
about
the
proposal
and
then
our
next
step
is
going
into
what
we
call
phase
three,
which
will
be
launching
in
early
february,
where
service
planning
right
now
is
going
through
and
taking
back
all
the
feedback
we're
getting
from
phase
two
and
from
these
types
of
meetings
and
coming
up
with
what
we
call
our
final
draft
network
and
that
will
go
back
out
to
the
public.
W
We'll
do
another
round
of
engagement.
I'm
anticipating
that
we'll
continue
to
be
doing
more
digital
engagement,
it's
not
clear
with
covid!
W
If
we
will
be
able
to
do
any
in
person,
I'm
hopeful,
but
we're
being
mindful
about
that
as
well,
and
then
from
there
we
will
be
going
back
to
our
mobility
board,
as
well
as
the
partner
review
board,
to
discuss
the
findings
from
phase
three
and
then
on
to
king
county
council
and
the
sound
transit
board
in
the
summer,
and
so
we'll
be
looking
for
letters
of
support
for
the
final
proposal
to
go
along
with
that
ordinance
package.
W
So
that
is
the
engagement
timeline
and
the
next
steps.
W
And
I
want
to
just
thank
you
for
your
time
and
there
are
root
level
maps
as
well
as
informations
about
those
specific
routes
on
our
website.
W
We
are
using
a
platform
called
elc.participate.org
and
the
reason
we're
doing
that
is
because
the
survey
and
other
materials
are
able
to
be
viewed
through
screen
readers
as
well
as
we
have
eight
individual
sites
in
the
languages
that
we
are
doing
the
project
in.
So
that's
where
you
can
take
a
look
at
those
and
I'll
pop
that
into
the
chat
when
I'm
done
speaking,
I'm
going
to
turn
it
over
to
brian
and
jr
who
are
going
to
lead
us
through
any
discussion,
questions
or
comments
that
you
might
have.
B
I'm
going
to
give
each
council
member
a
chance
to
speak,
I'm
going
to
go
with
councilmember
robertson,
council
members
on
deputy
mayor
me,
councilmember
barksdale,
councilmember,
stokes
and
lee
so
starting
with
councilmember
robertson,
any
comments
or
questions.
R
Yeah,
thank
you
all
for
being
here
tonight
to
tell
us
about
this
exciting
planning
work
for
bellevue.
Before
I
begin,
though
I
wanted
to
thank,
I
don't
know
if
it
was
metro
san
transit.
I
think
it
was
sound
transit
for
opening
the
south
bellevue
park
and
ride
to
buses.
Now
I
wasn't
able
to
attend
the
opening,
but
I
couldn't
be
happier
for
you
listening
to
the
people
of
bellevue
and
to
council
member
balducci
on
the
king
county
council
and
getting
that
open
so
really
thanks.
R
That's
a
great
great
resource
for
the
people
of
our
city.
So,
and
also
thank
you
for
working
in
partnership
with
bellevue
as
we're
working
through
the
plans
for
the
restructure
for
east
link.
We
it's
just.
We
couldn't
do
it
without
the
collaboration
and
the
partnership.
So
thank
you
for
that.
I'm
really
pleased
with
metro
and
sound
transit's
work
to
provide
the
fast,
convenient
options
to
connect
high
capacity
transit,
especially
for
people
who
don't
live
within
walking
distance
of
stations.
R
Our
region
really
deserves
to
see
the
maximum
benefit
for
our
investment
in
this
high-capacity
transit
system.
Although,
as
lacie
jane
said,
80
of
the
people
will
still
get
around
by
bus
so
making
sure
that
our
light
rail
system
works
well
and
that
the
bus
system
works
well
is
really
important
and
I
think,
paying
attention
to
the
walk
shed
areas.
R
A
half
mile
for
frequent
transit
or
high
capacity
transit
and
a
quarter
mile
for
more
local
routes
is
going
to
be
really
important,
as
is
making
sure
that
the
restructure
will
not
just
serve
getting
people
to
the
high
capacity
transit,
but
also
will
focus
on
the
growth
that
we
have
relatively
short
term
here
in
bellevue,
with
30
000
new
jobs
coming
in
the
next
couple
of
years,
in
debt,
mostly
downtown,
but
also
out
in
bel
red,
so
making
sure
we
serve.
Those
folks
really
well
is
really
important.
R
As
you
may
know,
I
serve
on
the
regional
transit
committee
for
king
county
and
we've
just
spent
the
last
two
years
helping
update
metro's
policies
for
exactly
this
type
of
service
restructure.
I
expect
those
policies
will
be
adopted
in
just
a
few
weeks
by
the
king
county
council.
They
all
passed
unanimously
in
regional
transit
committee,
including
all
the
amendments
that
were
sponsored
by
sound
cities.
So
I'm
looking
forward
to
hearing
how
those
new
policies
are
integrated
into
the
east
link
connection
in
phase
three.
P
Yes,
thank
you
mayor
and
you
know.
Thank
you.
I
am
also
very
excited
for
2023.
I
think
that,
having
light
rail
and
this
new
transit
map
for
frequent
transit
network
is
going
to
be
transformational
in
our
community,
so
I
really
appreciate
that
and
the
the
fact
that
you
used
our
transit
master
plan
as
the
baseline
to
really
understand
our
needs
it.
P
It
is
very
much
appreciated.
You
know
we
have
invested
a
lot
to
make
sure
that
we
have
connections
to
transit
and
safe
routes
to
transit
and
so
to
the
degree
we
continue
to
do
that.
I
support
the
council
sending
a
letter,
though
expressing
a
couple
of
our
areas
that
we
might
need
to
do
some
tweaking,
because
I
will
say
that,
as
I
think
about
some
of
the
routes
of
the
270
and
strengthening
that,
I
think
is
really
important.
I
used
to
be
a
frequent
rider
of
271.
P
Although
it
was
a
bit
of
a
milk
run,
it
was
an
important
route
because
once
the
one
one
one
stops
running
at
six
o'clock
at
night,
you
can't
actually
get
home
from
the
university,
and
I
appreciate
the
fact
that
it's
also
gonna
go
up
bellevue
way
to
serve
sophia
way.
It
looks
like
the
226
is
also
going
to
be
supporting
our
new
eastgate
campus
with
our
men's
shelter,
supportive,
housing
and
and
our
affordable
housing
area.
So
I
really
appreciate
that.
P
P
A
lot
of
the
folks
there,
you
know,
may
not
always
be
working
during
the
the
normal
daytime
hours
so
to
the
degree
that
some
of
the
off-peak
is
is
also
more
frequent,
would
be
very,
very
helpful
and
then
my
my
last
question
is:
what's
the
timing
for
route
changes
beyond
2023
and
the
reason
I
asked
is
because
you
know,
as
we
look
at
our
bellevue
college
connection
and
making
some
changes
there,
we
we
will
need
to
have
some
additional
tweaks
for
that
and
then,
as
we
look
in
the
future
for
aquatic
center
at
airfield
park,
that
area
is
going
to
need
a
lot
more
transit
so
that
we
don't
have
everyone
driving.
B
U
Go
ahead.
Thank
you.
Thank
you
very
much
for
your
comments.
We're
we're
so
happy
to
be
partnering
with
you
and
in
response
to
your
question
about
off-peak.
We
we
definitely
have
heard
from
people
in
this
process
that
transit
at
all
times
a
day
is
important,
so
that's
a
definite
priority
and
we
are
making
investments
there.
U
I
think
it's
also
kind
of
a
change
in
work
habits
where
people
do
want
to
travel
more
all
the
day
like
all
throughout
the
day,
and
there
may
not
be
as
big
of
a
peak
of
travel.
So
that's
definitely
something
we're
observing
that's
in
line
with
what
you
were
saying
about,
having
more
service
all
day
and
in
terms
of
timing
for
other
changes
beyond
this
process,
I
think,
whenever
there's
a
significant
change
that
could
impact
transit.
U
We
definitely
want
to
like
again
partner
with
you
to
take
a
look
at
how
we
can
improve
the
network.
I
think
the
bellevue
college
connector
you
mentioned,
would
be
a
change
and
we'd
want
to
make
sure
that
we're
leveraging
that,
to
the
greatest
extent
possible
as
well
as,
if
there's
you
know,
big
changes
and
things
that
might
generate
trips
or
where
people
need
to
make
connections.
U
We're
definitely
happy
to
look
at
that
so
yeah,
we'll
we're
looking
for
those
changes
where
we
can
leverage
the
metro
network
to
support
things
that
are
happening
in
the
city.
B
Mr
bacchus,
you
have
your
hand
up
for
a
reason,
or
is
that
my
cursor?
Oh
that's
my
cursor.
I
apologize
it's
the
shape
of
my
hand.
Okay,
deputy
mayor.
Go
ahead.
F
Thank
you
mayor.
Yes,
first,
thank
you
for
being
here
and
great
great
presentation.
I
appreciate
in
particular,
listening
to
jr
and
gunner
talk
about
the
equitable
outreach
and
the
results
from
that
very,
very
impressive
work,
and
something
that's
very
important
to
just
counsel
this
in
this
city.
So
thank
you
so
much
for
for
doing
that
and
reaching
out
to
so
many
bellevue
bellevue
residents.
I
have
very
very
in
support
of
this
letter,
I'm
moving
it
moving
it
forward.
F
I
said
three
quick
questions,
or
hopefully
they'll
be
quick.
One
on
slide,
seven
about
being
safe
is
one
of
the
priorities
there.
I'm
just
wondering
if
you
could
expand
on
that
just
a
little
bit
in
other
than
additional
lighting.
What
else
you
can
do
to
ensure
safety
for
for
riders
and
then
also
on
slide
five
every
eight
minutes
during
peak
hours,
I'm
just
wondering
what
the
non-peak
hours
looks
like
in
terms
of
frequency
and
then
lastly-
and
I
think
my
colleague
may
have
touched
on
this
a
little
bit,
but
what
is
that.
F
Feedback
loop
look
like
once
these
changes
go
into
effect
for
writers
to
give
feedback
in
terms
of
what's
working,
what's
not
working
where,
where,
where
should
writers
go
in
order
to
provide
feedback,
especially
if
one
of
the
unintended
consequences
is
affecting
them
negatively
in
terms
of
what
their
their
route
or
where
they
need
to
go
so,
but
with
that
I'll
turn
it
back
over
to
you.
But
again,
thank
you
for
being
here
great
presentation.
U
Maybe
I'll
kick
it
off
and
I
think
we'll
all
kind
of
contribute
to
these
different
questions.
But
my
first
comment
on
on
safety.
Of
course,
I
think
lighting
is
important,
having
good
facilities
and
improving
those
bus
stops,
but
I
also
think
making
sure
like
making
a
seamless
connection
so
bringing
our
routes
to
the
link,
light
rail
stations
that
people
can
move
between
the
modes
quickly
and
easily.
It
helps
them
travel,
but
it
also
helps
them
feel
safe.
U
So
I
would
add
that
I
don't
know
if
others
have
additional
comments
they
want
to
make,
but
that's
just
to
kick
it
off
and
then
and
then
I
I
think
arthur.
Do
you
want
to
cover
the
question
about
frequency.
G
Yeah
yeah
so
yeah,
eight
minute
peak
time,
frequency
and
then
it'll
be
running.
Midday
frequency
is
about
10
minutes
and
then
evenings
like
late
evenings
and
weekends.
You'll
see
15
minute
frequency,
but
usually
it's
generally
eight
to
ten
minutes.
U
Did
you
want
to
comment
on
the
on
the
feedback
piece
sure.
W
I
can
do
that.
Excuse
me
so
well,
we
are
in
engagement
right
now
about
the
draft
network
and
recognize
that,
once
things
do
shift
that
there
may
be
additional
feedback,
and
so
we
one
is
that
during
phase
three,
we
start
working
with
our
marketing
folks
to
start
thinking
about.
How
are
we
going
to
let
the
public
know
that
these
changes
are
going
to
happen
and
how
they're
going
to
happen,
and
also
getting
orca
cards
out
to
folks
may
not
have
them
so
there's
a
whole
plan
that
goes
along
with
that.
W
So
we
start
to
get
some
feedback
sometimes
of
that
period
and
then,
as
always,
we
have
our
customer
service
line,
and
so
there
there
are
ways
there
for
people
to
give
feedback
about
the
route.
The
ride,
the
driver,
all
of
the
different
areas,
both
on
on
the
metro
side
and
sound
transit,
has
a
comparable
customer
service
and
then
through
there.
W
If
there
are
particular
questions
or
comments
about
particular
routes
and
the
way
they're
running
or
if
things
are
shifting,
we
would
then
reach
back
out
to
service
planning,
drag
brian
back
in
have
conversations
and
unders
and
look
to
see
if
an
adjustment
needs
to
be
made.
That
is
not
uncommon.
There
are
a
lot
of
reasons
why
adjustments
get
made.
I
mean
I
was
working
with
folks
during
in
downtown
seattle
and
when
they
put
the
black
lives
matter
url
across
the
street,
we
actually
couldn't
run
a
bus
down
there
anymore.
W
B
Okay,
good,
thank
you.
So,
like
my
fellow
council
members,
I
really
appreciate
the
reference
and
the
strong
reference
to
our
transit
master
plan.
That
was
a
very
thoughtful
body
of
work
that
utilized
input
from
our
community
and
really
is
a
good
recommendation
of
where
the
the
bus
service
is
needed,
the
most
in
our
in
our
community,
and
it
seems,
like
you
know,
we're
responding
to
that.
B
Well,
and
I
do
appreciate
the
equity
piece
so
many
times
I
hear
from
the
people
who
seem
to
struggle
the
most
in
our
community
about
how
they're
you
know,
taking
a
bus
for
over
two
hours
to
get
to
work
each
way
and
that's
just
really
cuts
down
on
your
quality
of
life.
So
I
appreciate
the
response
and
the
sensitivity
to
the
people
who
will
be
utilizing
the
bus
I
couldn't.
B
I
couldn't
help
but
notice
that
there
seems
to
be
a
real
lack
of
service
to
some
of
our
neighborhoods,
and
I
was
looking
at
woodridge
where
I
used
to
live,
and
I
just
I
know
that
bus
route
so
well.
I
noticed
that
that's
no
longer
there
and
I
just
wonder
you
know,
will
you
be
taking
feedback
from
people
who
are
impacted
by
that
and
respond
to
that
as
we
move
forward
with
these
plans.
U
Yes,
absolutely,
I
think,
that's
exactly
how
this
this
particular
part
of
the
process
is
aiming
to
work.
Is
that
we
we
want
to
hear
comments
from
folks
on
those
routes.
U
That's
why,
during
the
survey
period,
people
could
comment
on
individual
routes
and
we're
looking
at
those
comments
and
we're
looking
at
like
what
they
said,
whether
they
supported
it
and
why
they
didn't
support
it
and
then,
regarding
woodridge
in
particular
that
segment
would
the
246
would
be
replaced
by
the
route
241
in
that
segment,
which
which
does
run
a
little
bit
more
frequently
than
the
current
246,
which
is
an
hourly
and
hourly
route.
U
U
The
route
246
kind
of
had
like
was
replaced
by
a
couple
of
different
routes
so
in,
but
in
that
middle
segment
from
downtown
down
to
eastgate,
it's
the
241
that
kind
of
picked
up
that
particular
connection.
B
D
All
right,
thank
you
mayor,
also
thank
you
for
being
here
and
all
the
work
that
you
all
are
doing,
working
together
to
improve
the
bus
service
and
just
overall
transit
service.
So
I
guess
one
question
I
had
is:
I
appreciate
the
equity
focus
you
know,
especially
focusing
on
bipod
communities,
underserved
communities
or
members
of
our
community.
I
guess
my
question.
I
appreciate
that
the
line
that
you're
focusing
on
factoria
are
there
at
night.
D
U
Yeah,
that's
a
great
question.
The
the
route
245
is
a
really
frequent
service
that
connects
crossroads
down
to
eastgate,
so
that'll
be
a
connection
there
and,
and
there
will
be
service
over
to
eastgate,
so
folks
in
the
factory
can
either
go
via
like
go
via
like
go,
get
to
light
rail
at
south
bellevue
or
they
can
connect
to
the
245
at
eastgate.
So
those
are
those
are
two
ways
to
get
up
to
crossroads
from
that
general
area.
U
Does
go
into
the
evening
yeah
I
can
look
at.
I
can
look
while
we're
sitting
here
for
a
second
figure
out
what
the
what
the
exact
span
is
for
that
route.
I
don't
have
it
off
the
top
of
my
head.
G
Yeah
link
generally
runs
until
about
1am,
depending
on
the
station
you're
at
the
the
last
train
sometimes
is
like
12,
56
or
something
but
usually
about
1
am.
U
Did
to
improve
the
network
is
some
of
the
routes
again
the
223
used
to
run
it
used
to
be
the
221.
But
now
it's
it's
a
replace
group,
but
it's
going
to
run
instead
of
10
pm
it'll
go
till
midnight,
so
there's
definitely
cases
where
we
wanted
it
to
go
longer
into
the
night
to
try
to
match
up
as
well
as
possible,
with
link.
V
And
just
going
to
follow
up
with
as
well
for
the
554
and
all
the
remaining
st
express
services,
we're
going
to
make
sure
that
the
buses
still
meet
up
with
the
last
like
at
least
like
what
are
the
last
few
trips
of
link.
So
we
want
to
make
sure
that
we're
going
to
be
running
like
pretty
late
service
on
nc
express
as
well.
B
Hey
councilmember
stokes.
N
Yeah
you've
asked
everybody's
asked
all
the
really
good
questions.
It's
been
a
good
conversation.
I
really
appreciate
having
ridden
the
bus
for
like
16
years
back
and
forth
to
seattle
and
seeing
how
that
changed.
That
was
a
great
you
know
from
once
one
place
to
another,
but
this
whole
concept
of
getting
around
the
whole
community
and
everything
is,
is
really
what
we've
been
needing
and
been
a
lot
of
really
thoughtful
comments.
N
On
on
this,
I
appreciate
that
I
think
transit,
you
know,
having
more
services
more
service
times
and
frequency
and
better
integration
of
the
system
is
what
we
really
need,
and
it's
without
that
we
we
still
would
be
kind
of
lost
in
this,
and
and
that's
the
thing
that
as
people
point
out,
it's
going
to
take
really
a
great
advantage
of
the
right
light
rail
piece
that
several
of
us
have
worked
on,
and
I
appreciate
councilmember
robertson's
comments
about
that,
and
I
also
worked
on
the
some
parts
of
the
regional
transit
part
and-
and
so
it's
just
good
to
see
the
I
think,
awareness
now
and
finally,
after
a
lot
of
conversations
getting
everybody
connected
and
what
you're
laying
out
as
a
program
is
something
that
I'd
say
five
years
ago
we
would
say:
wow,
that's
a
dream,
but
when's
it
going
to
happen
and
you're
making
it
happen
at
some
of
the
etp
meetings.
N
We've
had
you
know
it's
that
same
thing:
it's
it's
the
changes
going
on
so
you're,
fine
you're,
getting
ahead,
I
think
of
or
at
least
up
with
the
growth
and
the
need
and
the
change
that
the
pandemic
has
has
put
on.
It
is
a
big
piece
to
it
too,
which
you're
responding
to
well.
So
just
congratulations.
I
think
it's
really
great
and
one
of
the
concerns
or
thoughts
I
have
on
this
is
that
you
have
these
systems
and
thinking
about
people
say
living.
N
I
live
in
woodridge
and
you
know
you
see
some
buses
not
right
now,
because
they
took
that
route
off
coming
up
the
hill,
but
I
think
one
of
this
is
going
to
be.
How
do
we?
How
do
people
learn?
How
do
they
know
what
transit
can
do
for
them?
N
I
mean
there
are
times
when
I
really
would.
Rather,
if
I
could
catch
a
bus
and
go
someplace
else
in
bellevue,
I
would
do
that
because
sometimes
it's
a
real
problem
and
and
there's
just
something
about
sometimes
riding
a
bus
and
getting
you
know
there
in
a
different
way.
So
I
think
that's
in
the
communication
getting
out.
How
do
you,
how
do
you
get
people
to
one
know
about
bus
riding
and
to
get
them
to
accept
it
and
then
become,
as
part
of
you
know,
their
their
way
of
getting
around?
N
I
think
that's
the
next
steps
you're
working
on
again.
This
is
a.
I
haven't,
seen
a
presentation
like
this
in
a
long
time
that
is
so
thorough
in
covering
all
these
pieces.
It's
really
nice
to
hear
it's.
It's
great
you're,
getting
out
like
this
talking
to
us
and
talking
to
other
groups
in
the
community
will
help
us
as
well
like
the
bellevue,
downtown
association
or
something
I
mean
they
just
are
community
places,
community,
centers
and
all
some
ways.
We
can
do
that.
N
Maybe
we
can
work
with
you
on
that
going
forward,
because
the
more
people
know
about
this,
the
more
we
will
get
ridership,
but
I
don't
have
any
real
questions,
because
the
great
questions
asked
have
been
asked
and
answered,
and
and
don't
take
too
long
to
come
back
and
see
us.
B
Okay,
we
have
councilmember
lee
and
remember.
The
question
on
the
table
is
support
for
this
for
the
phase
two
proposed
routes
and
then
the
letter,
the
letter
support
with
some
of
the
changes
recommended
so
council
member
lee
I'll.
Let
you
go.
O
Thanks
for
having
coming
to
us
appreciate
you
providing
the
connection,
the
last
small
connection
to
sound
transit
and
obviously
metro
is
very
key
piece
of
it.
I
you
know
was
going
to
ask
you
about
the
community
outreach.
O
You
said
you
outreach
four
community
organizations
and
you
receive
three
comments
back
from
chinese
language
and
I
was
just
curious.
How
would
you
get
input
back
from
your
implementation?
Oftentimes
people
don't
know
until
it
happens.
You
know,
then
they
respond
to
you.
I
think
that's
a
very
valuable
thing.
So
yeah
just
curious.
How
do
you
make
sure
that
you
are
hearing
back
from
the
immigrant
population
because
most
people
who
a
lot
of
people
run
public
transit,
other
immigrants
who
may
speak
a
different
language
rather
than
english?.
W
Thank
you
for
that
question.
We
are
working
closely
with
the
chinese
information
service
center.
So,
on
top
of
the
helping
us
get
the
word
out
at
the
survey,
they
actually
conducted
a
focus
group
in
language
for
community
members
that
were
interested
in
that
and
then,
through
our
marketing
efforts,
we'll
be
again
working
with
those
community
based
organizations
that
we've
partnered
with
providing
they
have
the
capacity.
I
mean
one
of
the
things
that
we
are
running
up
against.
Typically,
we
try
to
have.
W
We
try
to
work
with
more
closer
to
six
to
eight
community
groups,
especially
an
area
this
large,
but
due
to
covid.
Many
of
them
are
really
focused
on
direct
services
and
don't
necessarily
have
the
full
capacity
for
things
that
aren't
directly
related
to
food
security
and
things
like
that
and
covered
response,
and
so
I'm
hopeful
as
we
move
forward
this
pandemic,
that
they
may
have
more
capacity,
and
we
do
we
do
pay
them.
We
do
partner
with
them
and
provide
as
many
tools
as
possible.
W
We'll
continue
to
do
outreach
and
engagement
in
marketing
in
language,
particularly
showing
all
the
great
response
again.
This
is
you
know,
I'm
hoping
phase
three.
We
see
double
the
response
in
language.
You
know
as
well
as
when
we
get
to
the
marketing
phase
of
that,
and
so
our
marketing
team
is
our.
It
has
a
relationship
with
the
cbo's
that
we
work
with
they've
already
started
to
talk
about
that.
W
We
also
like
to,
if
it's
possible,
bring
in
folks
that
have
been
on
a
mobility
board
or
work
for
these
organizations
to
be
features
or
stars
in
these
campaigns.
So
people
see
people
from
their
community
on
the
side
of
the
bus.
Talking
about
these
changes,
we
did
that
in
our
rent
and
kent
auburn,
which
was
really
awesome
to
just
make
the
everyday
person
the
superstar
on
the
side
of
the
bus
and
on
our
marketing
material.
W
So
those
will
be
some
things
we'll
be
looking
at
as
well,
and
then
we
also
are
trying
to
get
folks
to
get
back
on
transit
just
to
go
back
to
council
member
stokes's
comments.
W
So
we're
got
a
number
of
things
moving
at
the
same
direction
and
I
imagine
our
bringing
people
back
to
transit
will
continue,
particularly
as
the
way
the
pandemic
changes,
and
so
I
think
one
thing
that
we
did
run
up
against
is
that
some
of
the
changes
we
made
in
our
northeast
mobility
plan
didn't
come
to
full
fruition
because
we
did
the
bus
route
change
and
two
weeks
later,
we
got
shut
down
for
covid
so
hopefully,
and
we've
seen
a
little
bit
of
that
with
our
last
service
change
too,
because
we
haven't
been
able
to
be
out,
like
I
said
in
public
as
much
so
I
think
the
epic
media
ads
in
particular,
has
been
a
huge
way
for
us
to
reach
the
community.
W
We've
been
looking
at
things
also
that
the
immigrant
community
uses
like
whatsapp
or
if
there
are
other
facebook
groups
or
other
places,
that
we
should
try
to
tap
into
that.
We
may
not
necessarily
think
about
so
we're
always
looking
for
any
of
those
kind
of
suggestions.
If
anyone
here
has
suggestions
of
things
that
we
should
look
at,
particularly
to
reach
those
hard
to
reach
populations,
we
are
interested
and
you
know
we
will
do
whatever
we
can,
because
we
want
to
have
those
conversations.
A
lot
of
people
now.
O
I
can
give
you
a
suggestion
reaching
the
chinese
american
community
wechat.
O
That
yeah,
I
can
guarantee
you're
going
to
get
2
000
responses
from
that,
instead
of
three
so,
and
so
I
hope
you
know
you
take
that
advice
that,
if
anything,
you
know
we
can
help
you
with
yeah.
O
I
can
help
you
and
one
question
I
do
have
also
560
from
here
from
bellevue
to
the
airport.
Is
that
eliminated
because
everybody's
going
to
take
the
light
rail
to
the
airport
instead
of
the
bus.
V
Oh,
no,
no,
no,
okay!
So
the
560
is
not
related
to
this
project.
That
would
be
more
related
to
the
stride.
Brt
project
right,
so
the
560
566
67,
which
is
currently
suspended.
Those
are
under
that
project
scope.
This
is
primary.
This
is
all
for
eastern
link
because
I
don't
want
to
like
kind
of
spoil
that
project,
but
I
wanted
to
make
sure
that
the
566,
the
560
66,
are
all
tied
to
sides.
One
two
and
three.
O
O
F
B
You
so
councilmember
lee
is
this.
O
O
B
That's
great,
thank
you
very
much,
okay.
So
that
brings
us
to
the
end
of
our
comments
and
questions
on
this
topic.
There
is
a
motion
here,
deputy
mayor.
Would
you
like
to
well?
Actually
it's
it's
not
a
motion,
it's
a
direction,
but
I
think
I'd
like
to
just
see
a
consensus
that
we
approve
of
the
letter
and
the
recommendations
that
staff
has
made.
In
addition,
so
can
I
see
head
nods
if
you're
approving
of
that?
B
Okay,
I
see
him.
Thank
you
very
much.
That
is
your
direction.
Thank
you,
lacey,
jane,
for
putting
this
together
for
us,
thanks
for
all
coming
out
here
tonight
to
speak
to
us.
B
C
Sure,
good
evening,
mayor
robinson
and
council
members.
The
second
item
is
the
2021
annual
conference
of
plan
amendments
for
the
northeast
bellevue
and
northwest
bilby
neighborhood
area
plans
and
just
by
way
of
background,
the
first
two
neighborhood
area
plans
under
the
great
neighborhoods
program
for
northeast
bellevue
and
northwest
bellevue
and
are
included
as
part
of
this
year's
comprehensive
plan.
Amendment
process,
as
earlier
defined
by
the
council
tonight,
the
staff
will
provide
the
council
information
on
the
comprehensive
plan
amendment
process
undertaken,
as
well
as
an
overview
of
the
neighborhood
plans.
C
In
addition,
the
planning
commission
will
provide
council
with
their
recommendation
on
each
neighborhood
plan.
A
management
brief
was
provided
the
council
back
in
march
22nd
regarding
the
progress
to
date,
and
the
planning
commission
has
been
working
on
this.
Reviewing
the
plans
and
formulating
recommendations
over
this
past
spring
and
summer.
C
Following
a
review
of
the
planning
commission's
recommendation,
staff
is
seeking
council's
direction
on
next
steps,
including,
but
not
limited
to
returning
with
the
ordinance
for
adoption,
as
is
or
with
amendments.
I'm
joining
us
this
evening
is
emile
king
assistant,
director,
tara,
johnson,
comprehensive
planning
manager
and
elizabeth,
the
brett
senior
planner.
All
three
from
the
community
development
department
we
also
are
joining
us
this
evening-
is
the
planning
commission,
chair
mohamed
kushin,
with
that
I'm
going
to
turn
over
to
emil
king
to
keep
off
the
presentation
in
you.
X
X
Neighborhood
area
planning
is
the
focus
of
our
discussion
tonight.
Neighborhood
area
planning,
also
known
as
the
great
neighborhoods
program,
is
run
out
of
the
community
development
department
and
has
its
foundations
in
the
neighborhoods
element
of
the
comprehensive
plan.
It
builds
upon
the
existing
subarray
of
plans
in
volume,
two
of
the
comprehensive
plan
as
we'll
describe
tonight.
X
The
two
neighborhood
plans
to
be
discussed
with
council
tonight
are
the
first
two
to
come
to
council
under
the
newly
established
framework
for
neighborhood
planning.
Before
we
get
into
the
presentation,
I
wanted
to
first
recognize
the
community
engagement.
That's
gone
into
this
process.
To
date,
the
significant
work
of
the
planning
commission
you'll
hear
about
tonight
and
the
efforts
by
our
professional
staff
on
working
on
this
project
next
slide.
Please.
X
The
current
effort
was
formally
relaunched
in
2020,
with
these
two
neighborhoods
and
adjusted
to
remote
outreach
and
engagement
for
much
of
the
process.
It
was
also
informed
by
the
previous
work
done
in
2018
on
neighborhood
planning,
but
put
on
hold
due
to
resource
limitations.
At
the
time
council
members
were
kept
abreast
of
progress
with
staff
visits
to
council
in
october
20th
as
well
as
march.
X
Excuse
me,
october,
2020
and
march
2021,
as
the
city
manager
described.
The
two
recommended
plans
are
part
of
the
2021
annual
comprehensive
plan.
Amendment
process
and
staff
do
seek
direction
to
return
with
ordinances.
Adopting
the
commission's
recommendations
following
the
discussion
tonight
next
slide.
Please,
the
agenda
for
tonight
will
include
the
following
I'll,
be
talking
about
the
comprehensive
plan,
its
purpose
and
how
it's
used.
X
Staff
will
review
the
process
to
make
amendments
to
the
conference
comprehensive
plan,
followed
by
an
overview
of
what's
included
in
the
neighborhood
plan.
The
planning
commission
chair
will
then
review
the
commission's
recommendations
with
staff
following
up
with
resident
comments
received
over
the
past
couple
months.
Since
the
commission
work
was
completed,
we'll
cover
the
northeast
neighborhood
plan.
First
then
move
on
to
the
northwest
neighborhood
plan,
pausing
to
see
direction
for
each
plan.
X
In
that
order
on
the
map,
you
can
see
the
location
of
the
northwest
bellevue
sub
area,
as
well
as
the
northeast
bellevue
sub
area
there.
These
are
two
of
the
16
neighborhood
areas
that
comprise
the
city
of
bellevue
next
slide.
Please
I'd
like
to
add
some
context
for
this
work
to
update
the
comprehensive
plan.
The
comprehensive
plan
is
often
referenced
as
the
foundational
policy
document
for
the
city.
X
X
Y
Y
Y
These
proposals
are
reviewed
by
the
planning
commission
and
then
acted
upon,
of
course
by
city
council
through
the
final
review
process.
This
includes
evaluating
the
merits
of
the
proposed
amendments
included
in
the
annual
comp
plan.
Amendment
process
and
final
review.
Evaluation
and
decision
includes
initial
staff,
review
planning,
commission,
public
hearing
and
recommendation
which
you'll
be
hearing
about
shortly,
and
then
city
council
action
by
ordinance.
Y
If
you
could
go
to
the
next
side.
Elizabeth.
Thank
you.
This
is
the
decision
criteria
that
both
the
planning
commission
uses,
as
well
as
city
council,
in
making
their
final
in
making
their
recommendations
and
final
actions.
We
presented
that
to
you
as
part
of
our
october
meeting.
Y
If
you
could
go
to
the
next
slide,
it's
included
in
our
presentation
this
evening,
of
course,
are
two
comprehensive
plan,
amendments
that
were
initiated
by
city
council,
one
for
northeast
bellevue,
neighborhood
area
plan,
which
includes
making
changes
to
the
sub-area
plan
with
new
policies
and
a
new
narrative
section,
we're
also
amending
which
we'll
be
going
over
in
more
detail.
The
northeast,
bellevue
land
use
map
and
then
also
amending
borders
for
joining
neighborhoods
within
crossroads
in
southeast
bellevue
planning.
Y
Commission
recommendation,
which
we'll
talk
about
shortly,
was
to
approve
the
sub-area
plan,
with
with
recommendations
on
policy
changes.
Similarly
for
northwest
bellevue,
where
we
were
revising
the
sub-area
plan
and
then
also
proposing
new
draft
policies,
as
well
as
narrative
language
for
council
consideration,
and
the
planning
commission
recommendation
was
to
move
forward
with
the
proposed
policies
and
with
that
I
think
I'm
going
to
turn
things
over
to
elizabeth
to
walk
us
through
some
aspects
of
the
neighborhood
area
planning
process.
Z
Thank
you,
tara,
good
evening,
mayor
deputy
mayor
and
members
of
the
council
and
the
public
before
we
dive
too
deeply
into
these
plans.
We
wanted
to
do
a
little
bit
with
you
all
to
go
through
what
neighborhood
plans
are,
how
we
use
them,
what
belongs
in
them
and
what
belongs
in
other
areas
of
the
work
we
do
here
at
the
city.
So
you
can
see
here
on
the
page,
northeast
bellevue
as
an
example,
but
we'll
talk
through
a
little
bit
the
broader
needs
and
goals
of
neighborhood
area
plans
in
general.
Z
They
are
used
to
highlight
what
is
unique
about
each
neighborhood
and
prioritize
really
important
things
for
that
particular
neighborhood.
That's
a
really
key
aspect
of
this,
as
others
have
gone
through.
We
are
planning
to
update
them
in
groups
of
two
and
we
are
beginning
with
northeast
bellevue
and
northwest
bellevue,
and
the
remaining
plans
are
meant
to
be
put
on
hold
until
after
the
2024
periodic
update
to
the
comprehensive
plan
is
complete,
but
for
these
plans
there's
a
number
of
elements
that
that
we'll
be
going
through.
Z
But
it's
important
to
recognize,
just
like
emil
went
through
at
the
beginning
of
this
presentation
that
the
comprehensive
plan,
including
these
neighborhood
plans,
is
really
high
level
direction
and
not
about
specific
implementation.
So
specific
code,
amendments
or
proposals
for
funding
or
programs
are
actions
that
might
come
out
of
and
and
kind
of
reflect
these
policies,
but
are
not
included
within
these
plans.
Z
We
wanted
to
kind
of
give
an
example
from
this
specific
recommendation,
so
there
is
a
goal
in
the
recommended
plan
for
northwest
bellevue
that
talks
about
enhancing
access
in
a
general
sense
and
then
there's
a
policy
number
39
under
that
that
prioritizes
enhancements
that
address,
save
access
to
schools,
parks
and
transit.
So
as
an
example
for
that
policy,
it
might
ultimately
lead
to
actions
that
create
cip
funds
towards
the
safe
routes
to
or
it
might
change
the
prioritization
methods
used
in
the
neighborhood
sidewalk
program.
Z
But
those
are
things
that
might
come
out
of
that
those
are
not
things
that
are
listed
in
the
plan
specifically,
but
are
things
that
would
follow
up
once
these
plans
are
adopted.
Potentially,
so
that's
just
an
example:
we
wanted
to
include
to
highlight
that
we
also
wanted
to
explain
that,
while
the
land
use
maps
do
live
in
volume,
two
of
the
comprehensive
plan,
the
scope
for
the
neighborhood
area,
planning,
as
it
was
defined
by
council,
does
not
include
updates
to
land
uses
themselves.
So
those
have
not
been
amended.
Z
We
did
include
those
maps
for
a
number
of
them
because,
as
taurus
said,
there
are
boundary
changes.
So
when
the
comprehensive
plan
was
updated
in
2015,
several
of
the
neighborhood
area
boundaries
did
change,
and
so,
while
northwest
bellevue,
which
was
previously
called
north
bellevue,
did
not
change
its
boundaries.
Northeast
bellevue
did
so.
Z
You
can
see
in
the
map
on
the
screen
here
that
it
gained
a
section,
that's
in
the
solid
yellow
from
crossroads
and
it
lost
sections
in
the
dashed
yellow
line
from
that
went
to
lake
hills
and
west
lake
sammamish,
so
those
areas
have
been
reflected
and
those
related
maps
have
been
amended,
but
those
are
just
the
boundaries.
The
actual
uses
have
not
changed
here.
Z
So
here's
an
overview
of
what
is
in
each
of
these
plans.
You
can
see
them
in
your
attachments,
but
at
the
very
start,
is
a
vision
statement
for
each
neighborhood.
Z
So
before
we
hand
it
off
to
the
planning
commission
chair
to
go
through
that
process,
we
wanted
to
highlight
just
briefly
the
community
engagement
that
was
done.
We
did
do
a
management
brief
back
in
march.
That
highlighted
this
in
much
more
detail,
but
just
as
a
reminder,
this
entire
engagement
effort
was
unfortunately
done
remotely
due
to
cobid,
but
we
pivoted
very
very
quickly
and
found
ways
to
engage
the
community
in
all
sorts
of
new
ways.
Z
So
this
is
an
example
on
the
screen
of
how
we
were
able
to
get
community
members
to
talk
to
each
other.
We
did
a
lot
of
breakout
rooms
with
three
to
five
people
from
the
same
neighborhood
area
and
had
them
talking
to
one
another
and
filling
out
diagrams
like
this
and
really
getting
into
the
meat
of
the
discussion
in
a
very
interactive
way,
which
was
great
on
this
slide.
There's
a
lot
of
details
about
numbers
of
engagement,
I'm
not
going
to
go
through
all
of
them,
since
a
lot
of
that
was
highlighted
previously.
Z
But
just
as
a
reminder,
we
did
find
a
lot
of
great
ways
to
engage
equitably
across
diverse
communities.
We
were
able
to
hire
some
part-time
cultural
outreach
assistants
to
give
us
tips
like
using
wechat
with
the
chinese
community.
We
did
that
and
got
a
lot
of
great
responses,
so
things
like
that
were
really
kind
of
new
pivotal
parts
of
our
engagement
effort.
Z
We
also
were
able
to
get
thousands
of
visitors
to
our
online
websites
for
each
neighborhood
and
we
also
sent
out
mailers
twice
to
each
neighborhood
to
every
household
in
each
neighborhood
and
the
second
one
was
actually
a
questionnaire
that
you'll
hear
a
little
bit
about
later.
We
also
were
able
to
provide
full
draft
plans
to
these
communities.
Z
Z
The
conversations
with
both
neighborhoods
tended
to
follow
these
types
of
topics,
but
then
the
policies
that
you
find
within
these
section
areas
are
very
different
for
each
plan,
and
so
the
chair
of
the
planning
commission
will
walk
through
that
and
with
that,
I'm
going
to
hand
that
off
to
chair
malakuchen,
to
walk
through
the
planning
commission
process.
Thank
you.
AA
Thank
you
so
much
good
evening.
Everyone
before
I
jump
to
my
slides.
I
just
want
to
thank
the
city
of
staff
because
I
live
in
northwest
w
and
they
reach
out
to
me,
however,
and
whatever
they
could
via
emails.
AA
We
are
sending
me
a
letter
sending
me
an
envelopes
and
mail,
and
I
was
part
of
their
study.
I
think
at
the
time
they
didn't
even
know
I
serve
as
a
planning
commissioner,
so
I
can
be
a
witness
for
their
effort
to
reach
out
to
a
community.
I
am
sure
we
can
do
better,
but
I
think
they
did
their
best.
They
could
do
so
now.
AA
Back
to
my
slides,
the
planning
commission
recommends
by
two
separate
five
to
0
votes
that
the
city
council
adopt
the
recommended
neighborhood
area
plans
for
both
north
east
bellevue
and
northwest
bellevue.
AA
AA
As
you
can
see
on
the
slide,
we
discussed
the
amendments
at
four
study
sessions,
including
one
that
was
additionally
requested
by
us
to
review
the
more
debatable
policies
in
detail.
Basically,
we
created
more
work
for
staff
and
staff.
The
patient
address,
address
of
them
and
amended
their
draft
plans
in
accordance
with
our
direction
throughout
the
process.
AA
Several
members
of
each
neighborhood
spoke
at
these
four
study
sessions
and
many
wrote
written
comments.
The
planning
commission
leading
up
to
the
public
hearing.
As
you
can
see,
nine
individuals
wrote
comments
regarding
the
north
east,
belgium
plan
and
13
did
for
northwest
of
eu.
Also
five
and
six
individuals
spoke
at
the
public
hearing
for
each
neighborhood
respectively.
Now,
I'm
going
to
discuss
the
unique
topics
covered
by
the
commission
for
each
neighborhood.
AA
AA
So,
as
you
can
see,
the
image
shows
the
cover
of
the
recommended
plan
for
north
east
bellevue,
which
is
in
attachment
tree
in
your
tonight's
packet.
The
recommended
plan
includes
five
topic
areas:
sense
of
place,
sense
of
community
housing,
affordability,
mobility
and
access
and
environment
with
all
of
the
policies
numbered,
as
listed
on
this
slide
next
slide.
Please.
AA
So
now
I
start
with
north
east
bellevue,
the
commission
heard
from
staff
and
residents
about
the
peaceful
character
of
the
neighborhood
and
interest
in
maintaining
that
character
and
scale,
which
is
encouraged
in
the
recommended
plan.
The
staff
amended
portions
of
the
plan
to
reflect
direction
from
the
commission
regarding
maintenance
and
renovation
of
existing
homes.
AA
AA
AA
AA
Finally,
the
commission
wanted
to
particularly
emphasize
the
importance
of
considering
the
affordable
housing
strategy.
In
conclusion,
we
recommended
adoption
of
the
plan
as
presented
to
council
and
included
in
tonight's
packet.
Now
I
will
pass
this
back
to
our
amazing
staff,
who
will
add
additional
detail
on
these
topics.
Z
Thank
you
chair,
so
right
before
we
open
this
up,
we
wanted
to
add
a
few
more
comments
about
some
of
these
things,
particularly
what's
on
the
screen.
Right
now,
as
as
the
chair
went
through,
addresses
comparison
to
the
affordable
housing
strategy
and
in
a
number
of
ways
that
was
definitely
considered.
Z
The
affordable
housing
strategy
emphasizes
the
need
for
a
variety
of
housing
types
and
specifically
calls
out
the
adus
for
discussion,
and
so
that
is
what
ultimately
occurred
in
a
lot
of
our
discussions,
though,
a
lot
of
those
came
up
as
ideas
from
residents
specifically
and
both
of
the
plans
work
with
this
strategy
and
bring
additional
details
specific
to
each
neighborhood.
With
regard
to
these
additional
housing
technologies,.
Z
We
also
wanted
to
bring
attention
to
some
continued
communications
that
we've
received
from
residents
and
that
council
members
have
also
received,
and
some
of
which
was
was
brought
up
during
oral
communications,
so
in
your
council
library,
as
well
as
one
of
the
attachments
to
your
materials.
For
today
there
there
were
these
these
letters,
which
I'll
go
through
for
northeast
bellevue.
There
were
two
letters
written
by
the
same
group
of
residents
about
a
dozen
northeast
residents,
came
together
and
reviewed
these
in.
Z
In
addition,
once
the
planning
commission
had
already
given
their
recommendation
and
reached
out
to
staff,
and
so
they
have
provided
their
additional
comments,
the
three
topics
that
are
on
the
screen
are
their
main
comments.
The
first
relating
to
coordination
with
redmond
as
the
chair
went
through.
That
was
definitely
a
topic
of
consideration
throughout
the
process
and
really
important
to
this
neighborhood.
Z
There's
also
some
discussion
of
tree
preservation
and
there
are
quite
a
few
policies
in
the
plan
regarding
trade
preservation,
tree
planting
and
education,
around
trees
and
other
greenery,
and
those
are
generally
policies
41
through
44..
Z
Z
The
last
on
the
screen
is
looking
at
increased
housing
options,
which
we've
heard
a
lot
about
tonight,
and
this
is
a
a
broader
conversation
about
not
only
the
adus
but
also
other
housing
options,
but
within
northeast
bellevue
in
particular,
there
is
a
policy
that
discusses
the
adu's,
duplexes
and
triplexes,
and
in
order
to
discuss
how
that
came
around,
we
wanted
to
kind
of
describe
that
this.
This
really
came
up
as
a
solution
raised
by
residents.
Z
Every
single
breakout
room
for
both
neighborhoods
brought
this
up
as
a
potential
solution
to
housing,
affordability,
options
and
this
created
a
number
of
later
conversations
that
staff
staff
discussed
with
with
a
number
of
residents
to
discuss
what
this
would
mean,
what
concerns
are
and
then
there,
and
so
therefore
there
are
a
number
of
policies
in
the
plan
that
address
some
of
those
concerns
and
talk
specifically
about
how
these
might
fit
in
with
northeast
bellevue.
Z
But
in
order
to
understand
that
conversation,
we
also
have
to
look
at
the
questionnaires
that
we
sent
out
following
a
lot
of
those
conversations.
We
sent
out
a
questionnaire
to
every
household
in
both
neighborhoods
with
the
same
questions
but
for
northeast
bellevue.
These
are
what
the
responses
to
two
of
the
five
questions
were,
and
these
ones
related
to
the
adus,
also
known
as
backyard
cottages,
which
is
a
more
typical
term
that
residents
use
and
the
first
one
looks
at
just
how
many
residents
on
both
sides
of
this
issue.
There
were.
Z
This
survey
had
401
responses,
which
is
a
very
large
percentage
for
a
questionnaire
like
this
coming
back
and
it's
almost
evenly
split
between
people
who
support
backyard
cottages
and
people
who
do
not
support
backyard
cottages.
But
we
followed
up
with
an
additional
question
about
what
types
of
regulations
might
might
need
to
be
included
and
just
how
important
that
was,
and
there
was
overwhelming
support
for
looking
at
those
those
specific
codes
and
how
important
that
was
and
that
that
tracks.
Z
With
a
lot
of
the
conversations
you
may
have
read
in
your
council
materials,
as
well
as
what
we've
heard
over
and
over
from
residents,
that
even
people
who
who
kind
of
disagree
with
the
first
statement,
often
state
that
if
there
were
the
right
regulations,
they
would
not
be
opposed.
And
so
there's
really
a
broader
exploration
of
this.
That
includes
those
conversations
about
codes
which
don't
belong
in
the
comprehensive
plan,
but
do
belong
in
a
conversation
about
the
adus
and
other
housing
options
similar
to
them
that
that
needs
to
happen.
Z
Z
We
haven't
heard
a
lot
about,
because
there's
general
agreement
and
support
for
them
as
examples
you
can
see
in
sense
of
place,
there's
a
lot
of
discussion
about
the
transitioning
and
scale
and
buffering
for
the
the
you
know
quieter
areas
that
the
chair
discussed
in
terms
of
community.
There
are
a
lot
of
policies
about
bringing
people
together,
having
people
help
each
other
out
in
times
of
need
in
housing,
affordability.
Z
There
are
the
policies
we
just
discussed,
but
there
are
also
policies
about
aging
in
place
and
making
sure
that
seniors
can
stay
in
their
neighborhood
as
they
age
and
their
needs
change
in
mobility
and
access
safety
is
reflected
as
one
of
the
number
one
priorities.
Many
of
those
comments
were
focused
specifically
on
mobility
safety,
so
those
are
reflected
in
this
there's
also
discussions
around
the
arterials
that
the
chair
mentioned
in
this
particular
area
as
being
really
key,
as
well
as
traffic
considerations
due
to
a
lot
of
the
density
around
the
area.
Z
X
Thanks
elizabeth
mayor
we'd
now
like
to
hand
things
back
over
to
you
and
the
rest
of
council.
The
staff
and
chair
balocusian
are
happy
to
answer
any
questions
you
have
and
will
ultimately
want
to
be
seeking
your
direction
on
northeast
bellevue.
At
this
point,.
X
B
So
the
question
before
us
right
now
is
about
northeast
bellevue,
we'll
take
the
northwest
bellevue
next,
just
talking
about
northeast
bellevue
in
our
packet.
We
have
a
bunch
of
amendments
that
have
been
proposed
for
northeast
bellevue
and
we
are
looking
to
see
if
you
approve,
with
the
planning
commission's
recommendations
to
to
return
with
an
ordinance
supporting
these
amendments.
So
I'm
going
to
start
with
council
member
barksdale
because
he
is
the
liaison
to
the
planning
commission,
but
for
all
the
council
members.
You
know
we
have
a
lot
of
material
tonight.
B
D
All
right,
thank
you
mayor,
so
I
first
want
to
thank
the
planning,
commission
and
staff
and
also
the
community
for
their
engagement.
So
I
want
to
sort
of
address
the
the
adu
specifically
in
my
comments,
I
do
support
the
planning
commission's
recommendations
because
that's
going
to
be
the
biggest
issue
and
it's
one
of
the
I'm
sure
it's
going
to
direct
the
amendments.
So,
first
of
all,
you
know
I
just
want
to
remind
us
of
our
guiding
principle
that
bellevue
welcomes
the
world.
D
Our
diversity
is
our
strength
and
we
embrace
the
future
while
respecting
our
past
and
part
of
that.
Diversity
is
also
income
diversity,
which
is
why
we
often
talk
about
affordable
housing,
housing
having
housing
choices
in
the
housing
ladder,
and
I
think
the
adus
are
a
provide,
a
step
on
that
housing
ladder.
D
So
I'm
not
going
to
take
a
long
time,
but
I
did
just
want
to
elevate
one
of
the
public
comments,
written
comments
that
we
received
by
mr
stillwell,
who
highlighted
he
lived
in
inatai
and
lived
in
the
adu,
and
there
was
an
elderly
gentleman
that
he
was
able
to
age
in
place.
He
had
the
rental
income
from
them
living
there.
D
D
We
were
all
just
neighbors,
unconcerned
with
the
type
of
housing
the
other
lived
in,
and
I
think
that's
important
because
it
just
speaks
to
how
I
think
we
should
think
about
this-
that
we're
just
providing
more
opportunities
for
more
neighbors
to
have
that
quality
of
life
in
our
community
and
so
I'll
leave
it
there
for
northeast
bellevue.
I
want
to
call
out
two
things:
25
percent
of
the
neighborhood
is
cost
burden
from
the
from
the
slides
and
content
we
got
from
staff.
D
25
percent
of
neighborhood
is
cost
burdened
by
housing,
that's
961,
households,
and
so,
and
also
that
increasing
costs
are
displacing
older
residents
and
making
it
difficult
for
middle-income
earners
to
rent
or
purchase,
and
they
want
to
have
housing
choices,
and
this
is
a
way
to
also
provide
housing
choices.
D
Let
me
just
note
that
mr
stillwell
does
not
live
in
bellevue
anymore,
because
after
10
years
of
he
and
his
family,
his
sister
his
his
dad
separately
living
in
bellevue,
they
could
not
afford
to
stay
in
bellevue.
That's
today,
and
that's
even
with
the
initiatives
that
we
have
today
around
affordable
housing,
so
I'll
leave
it
there.
Thank
you.
B
Okay,
I'm
going
to
go
next,
then
deputy
mayor,
councilmember,
zahn,
robertson,
spokes
and
lead.
So
I
really
appreciate
the
work
that's
been
done
here
and
chair
malcusion.
Thank
you
so
much
for
being
with
us
here
tonight
and
for
leading
the
planning
commission
on
this.
I
read
the
whole
thing
and
it
was
a
lot
to
read
and
it
really
gave
me
a
pre,
an
appreciation
for
the
detailed
work
that
was
done
all
the
input
that
was
given.
B
I
know
some
people
felt
that
northeast
and
northwest
bellevue
were
kind
of
lumped
into
the
same
type
of
neighborhood.
I
didn't
perceive
that
at
all.
When
I
read
this
and
I
I
thought
it
was
a
very
sensitive
and
and
thoughtful
piece
of
work
with
the
recommendations
here.
So
I
want
to
thank
you
for
that.
B
There
isn't
one
thing
and
I
agree
very
with
a
lot
of
what
councilmember
barksdale
said.
I
think
he
paints
a
very
accurate
picture
of
the
lack
of
affordability
in
our
neighborhoods
and
what
we're
losing,
because
of
that,
but
I'm
going
to
take
a
little
different
slant
on
this,
because
there
seems
to
be
a
premise
that
aging
in
place
and
and
if
you
do,
there's
many
definitions
for
what
aging
in
places.
B
But
if
you
take
it
for
aging
in
your
single
family
home
as
an
empty
nester
that
that's
a
superior
way
of
life
for
an
older
adult
and
I'm
going
to
say,
I
don't
agree
with
that
for
20
years
I
I've
worked
in
the
field
of
home
care
and
enabling
people
to
age
in
place.
I
used
to
think
it
was
actually
the
best
thing
for,
for
somebody
and
after
20
years
of
doing
it
I'll
tell
you
that
I
don't
believe
that's
the
case.
B
B
There's
stairs
there's
steps,
there's
concrete
and
they're
isolated
from
from
social
society,
because
they're
just
in
this
big
home
and
they
don't
get
out,
they
they
lose
their
independence
and
and
they
become
very
isolated
and
there's
a
lot
of
anxiety
for
people
who
live
in
a
place
that
they
can't.
They
don't
feel
they
can
manage,
and
I
think
the
biggest
problem
is
that
we
don't
have
enough
options
for
people
to
downsize
in
their
own
neighborhoods.
B
And
so
I
really
I
like
the
amendment
s
ne
20
explore
introducing
a
mix
of
new
housing
typologies,
but
I
would
take
out
detached
accessory
dwelling
units
and
continue
with
duplexes
and
triplexes
to
allow
options
for
a
range
of
households,
and
I
would
like
to
take
the
conversation
around
dadus
and
bring
it
back
early
next
year.
So
we
can
really
look
at
what
is
what
is
the
purpose
of
this?
Are
we
trying
to
allow
people
to
rent
it
out
and
stay
in
their
home?
B
Are
we
trying
to
give
them
an
opportunity
to
downsize
into
something
right
next
to
their
home?
Are
we
trying
to
get
other
people,
families
into
a
neighborhood
in
a
much
smaller
dwelling
as
a
dadu
is
because
I'll
tell
you
right
now,
50
of
our
single
family
homes
in
bellevue
are
occupied
by
one
or
two
adults
and
no
children,
and
these
are
homes
next
to
schools
in
walking
distance
to
schools
on
in
in
nice,
neighborhoods,
safe
neighborhoods-
and
you
know
I
I
just
it
pains
me
to
think
that
we
would
leave.
B
We
would
encourage
somebody
to
be
in
a
huge
home
by
themselves
as
they
age
and
then
encourage
a
family
to
go
into
a
detached
dwelling
unit.
That
just
doesn't
really
make
sense
to
me.
So
I
want
to
have
a
conversation
more
about
what
are
we
trying
to
achieve
here
in
allowing
dadus,
and
I
I
would
like
to
just
move
that
to
next
year.
If
we
could
that's
my
only
recommendation
for
northeast
bellevue,
otherwise,
I
think
these
amendments
are
great.
Thank
you.
Okay,
deputy
mayor.
F
Thank
you
mayor
and
for
the
record
you
over
the
three
minute
mark
I
didn't.
I
didn't
want
to
interrupt
your
train
of
thought
there,
because
I
actually
agree
with
you
on
that.
I
think
well,
first
of
all,
let.
F
Emil
and
elizabeth
and
thora
thanks
for
the
presentation
and
as
well
as
the
planning
commission,
all
the
good
work
that
they've
done
to
get
us
to
this
point.
I
think
the
mayor
makes
an
excellent
suggestion
in
terms
of
taking
the
dadus
off
off
the
table
for
for
now
to
do
a
further
examination.
F
Of
that
I
mean
davus
can
be
a
tool
that
we
should
be
looking
at,
but
I'm
certainly
in
favor
of
having
some,
as
I
think,
we've
heard
from
a
number
of
different,
neighbors
or
residents
this
evening
about
having
you
know
a
few
stipulations
associated
with
that
owner
occupied
available
parking,
some
monitoring
in
terms
of
the
impact
of
the
neighborhood
and
traffic
that
it's
not
going
to
be
exploited
for
airbnb,
etc,
etc.
So
I
would
like
to
see
a
little
bit
of
further
study
on
that.
F
You
know
the
duplex
and
triplex.
You
know
that
that
also
introduces
somewhat
of
a
unique
situation
too
to
to
to
these
neighborhoods,
and
I
I
guess
this
goes
to
part
of
my
question
I
wanted
to
ask-
was
there
seems
to
be
a
little
bit
of
a
disconnect
on
some
of
these,
especially
around
affordable
housing
and
maybe
elizabeth
orthorick,
and
answer
this
in
terms
of
what
we're
seeing
now
and
what
we're
also
seeing
via
email
and
during
oral
communications
as
well
and-
and
maybe
it
has.
AB
F
To
do
with
the
with
initial
feedback,
but
there
wasn't
any
kind
of
a
feedback
loop
mechanism
where
they
could
really
respond
to
what
input
they
were
providing
to
city
staff.
I'm
just
wondering
if
you
could
touch
on
that
a
little
bit,
because
certainly
I
think
that
the
number
of
concerns
that
have
been
raised
this
evening.
You
know
that
that
needs
to
be
addressed.
X
Elizabeth,
you
want
to
go
ahead
and
address
a
deputy
mayor's
question
about
our
outreach
specific
to
the
housing,
affordability,
things.
Z
Yeah
definitely,
I
think,
in
a
high-level
way.
I
can
answer
and
then
definitely
follow
up.
If
you
have
additional
questions
you
heard
from
a
few
residents
and-
and
there
were
some
written
materials
that
were
presented
to
you
by
a
group
of
residents
about
this
issue-
that
most
of
those
residents
from
northeast
bellevue
and
northwest
bellevue
were
part
of
the
process
along
the
way,
and
so
they
they
did
partake
in
our
various
outreach
efforts
and
did
provide
comment
throughout
the
process.
Z
We
also
heard
comments
from
other
residents
that
kind
of
counted
some
of
those,
and
so
there's
this
this
you
know
point
particularly
for
the
question
of
dadus
and
other
housing
options
where
there
are
people
on
both
sides
of
this
issue
and
it's
hard
there's.
You
know
I
showed
you
that
slide
where
there's
hundreds
of
people
who've
responded
on
both
sides
right
we've
got.
Z
Hundreds
of
you
know
more
detailed
comments
as
well
and
so
being
able
to
provide
all
of
that
and
filter
through
the
big
theme
we
found
was
that
a
lot
of
those
kind
of
codes
and
and
specifics
were
really
what
people
wanted
to
dive
into
and
that
that's
a
conversation
that
needs
to
happen.
You
know
more
holistically,
looking
at
all
those
pieces,
rather
than
just
saying
you
know.
F
B
Okay,
councilmembers
on.
P
Yes,
thank
you.
You
know.
I
too
appreciate
all
the
work
from
staff.
You
know
we
started
this
in
2018
and
then
had
to
restart
with
some
staff
changes
and
all
of
the
comments
and
engagement
from
the
community,
because
we
are
all
in
this
together,
and
this
is
really
important
work
that
we,
you
know
just
want
to
put
out
there,
that
that
these
plans
haven't
been
updated
since
the
1980s,
so
they're,
almost
40
years
old
and
the
demographics
and
the
growth
and
the
needs
in
our
communities
have
changed.
P
And
what
I
really
appreciate
also
about
the
the
work
product
that
we
are
seeing
is
that
it
has
a
preamble.
It
shows
the
demographics
of
who's
in
the
community,
the
vision,
what
are
the
pieces
and
for
success,
and
I
think
those
things
are
really
really
important,
and
my
sense
is
that
we're
a
lot
closer
together
in
our
interest
than
we
are
apart.
P
So
to
the
degree
that
we
can
work
together
on
on
talking
through
what
makes
the
most
sense-
and
I
might
actually
recommend
mayor
that
it
is
a
yes
and
and
not
one
or
the
other,
in
that
we
can
adopt
the
plan,
as
recommended
by
the
planning
commission,
as
well
as
put
in
our
work
plan,
to
look
at
the
dadu
from
staff.
Because
if
I
look
at
the
ne
20
and
then
21
and
22
it,
it
says
to
explore
the
or
the
start
exploring.
I
got
so
many
pieces
of
paper
here
explore
introducing.
P
So
I
think
that
this
language
gives
us
the
high
level
that
the
staff
was
mentioning
to
support
the
work,
that's
going
to
be
ahead
and
what
I
thought
that
was
the
most
fascinating.
Actually
in
the
report
was
to
council
member
bartsdale's
point:
17
percent
of
the
households
earn
less
than
50
000
a
year.
P
That's
654
households,
there's
only
190
multi-family
units,
which
I
believe
my
math
is
correct-
represents
a
very,
very
small
proportion
of
what's
actually
available
in
the
community,
and
so
when
I
look
at
that
and
the
fact
that
82
percent
are
owner
occupied,
almost
all
of
the
housing
in
this
area
was
built
between
1950s,
60s
and
70s.
P
P
So
I
really
think
that,
if
that
to
talk
about
how
we
look
at
more
housing
options
for
our
community
to
age
in
place,
to
move
up
and
down
in
mobility
and
as
well
as
tree
preservation
that
what
is
being
proposed
makes
makes
absolute
sense,
and
I
appreciate
actually
the
the
choice
of
wording
from
staff
and
the
planning
commission,
because,
okay,
thank
you
I'll.
Come
back
around
all
right.
R
Thanks,
I
have
a
couple
general
comments
that
applies
to
both
so
I'll
just
say
them
once
so.
I
I
really
like
there's
a
lot
of
things
I
really
like
about
these
neighborhood
area
plans.
First,
I
think
the
staff
really
went
above
and
beyond
to
try
to
get
the
outreach
done.
The
layout's
beautiful
the
neighborhood
descriptions
are
unique.
R
The
data
is
interesting.
I'd
like
to
see
consistent
data
in
in
all
of
them,
but
as
far
as
you
know,
what's
measured
or
what's
highlighted
and
there's
a
lot
of
good
policies
that
seem
to
be
broadly
supported
by
the
neighborhoods
from
the
trees
to
to
other
issues,
but
there
was
a
challenge
in
doing
the
outreach
as
much
effort
as
we
made
doing
it
during
covid.
When
people
are
worried
about
their
jobs,
they're
worried
that
their
kids
aren't
in
school,
they're
worried
about
getting
sick.
R
Maybe
they
have
family
members
who
have
gotten
sick
and
they
were
not
gathering
together.
I
you
know
one
of
the
things
I
really
personally
struggle
with
excessive
zoom.
That's
why
I
turn
my
camera
off
in
big
meetings,
sometimes
because
I'm
an
introvert,
I'm
the
only
one
on
the
council.
I
know,
but
more
than
half
of
the
population
in
the
united
states
are
introverted,
and
so
the
zoom
zoom
format
is
very
difficult
for
those
folks
not
to
mention
the
people
who
may
be
technically
challenged
to
get
into
a
virtual
environment.
R
Maybe
they
don't
own
an
ipad
or
a
smartphone,
or
a
laptop
so
or
something
with
a
camera.
So
I
think
that
it
really
made
it
very
difficult
for
people
one
to
engage
with
staff,
but
also
to
engage
with
each
other,
because
breakout
rooms
are
not
the
same
as
being
in
an
actual
room
where
you
could
talk,
exchange
ideas,
you're
not
on
camera
you're,
not
having
every
word
written
down
by
the
staff
member,
that's
sitting
there
and
you
can.
R
Some
things
can
happen
organically,
where
people
come
together
and
collaborate
and
come
up
with
ideas
and
consensus,
and
I
think
that
that
was
the
challenge
through
nobody's
fault
at
all,
with
this
process,
and
I
think
that's
why,
at
the
end
of
the
process,
we
have
an
a
number
of
community
leaders
in
these
two
sub-areas
being
very
concerned
with
a
few
policies,
not
every
policy.
R
So,
that's,
I
think,
that's
really
hard,
and
it
makes
it
hard
for
me
to
to
know
exactly
what
to
do
on
northeast.
It
seems
like
there's
a
few
issues
that
I've
heard
as
themes
from
people
via
email
phone
calls
or
people
that
have
testified
to
counsel
one.
Is
the
policy
11,
avoiding
adverse
impacts
from
development
in
the
neighboring
jurisdictions?
R
I
think
a
modification
of
the
language
there
would
probably
make
that
really
acceptable
and
embraced
by
the
neighborhood
more
focus
on
safety
which
could
be
slid
into
somewhere
in
in
this
section,
that's
between
policy,
13
and
19,
and
maybe
more
language
on
the
environment.
R
It
seems
to
me
that
if
we
made
those
changes
to
the
northeast
sub-area
plan,
we
would
capture
a
lot
of
the
angst
that
folks
are
having.
So,
if
we're
going
to
pass
this
this
year,
I
would
like
to
have
staff
take
a
crack
at
maybe
modifying
some
of
those
or
creating
some
new
policies.
I
know
that
there
was
some
thought
about
a
policy
about
not
just
public
safety,
but
one
specifically
with
pedestrian
safety.
I
support
that.
I
think
a
general
one
about
being
safe.
R
Thank
you,
so
I,
if
we're
going
to
pass
it
this
year,
I
recommend
that
I'm
also
comfortable.
If
my
colleagues
want
to
wait
until
we
do
the
major
compliment
update,
you
know
I
I
I
would
defer
to
the
council,
but
if
it's
coming
back
I'd
like
to
see
some
changes.
B
Like
some
clarification,
you
reference
number
11
and
you
said
that
was
protect
like
a
buffer,
but
it's
actually
that's
a
different
collaborating.
So
can
you
clarify
which
yes.
R
And
I
do
support
the
dadu
removal
as
mayor,
you
said
this
says:
collaborate
with
neighboring
jurisdictions
to
promote
a
welcoming
experience
when
crossing
jurisdictional
boundaries.
The
comments
we've
gotten
from
the
neighborhoods-
they
want
stronger
language
about
you
know
protecting
them
from
adverse
impacts.
I
think
that
we
could
say
something
of
you
know
work
with.
R
You
know
I
didn't
draft
this,
because
it's
really
not
my
job
to
do
that.
It's
I
was
hoping
staff
could,
but
something
about
the
effect
of
and
work
with,
our
neighboring
jurisdictions
to
ensure
development
is
successful,
with
impacts
minimizer,
something
like
that
would
be
really
good,
because
I've
heard
from
some
people
they're
very
concerned
about
the
impacts
of
the
development
right
on
the
bellevue
border.
So.
B
I'll
tell
you
what,
as
we
listen
to
our
next
two
council
members,
you
can
work
on
a
a
change
to
that.
Okay,
it's
like
actually.
R
X
N
The
first
comment
is:
I've
got
another
new
definition
of
introvert,
but
never
thought
about
you
that
way.
No,
this
is
a
good
conversation.
I
I
mean
there's
this
back
and
forth.
Should
we
do
this
now
or
and
or
wait
a
couple
years?
I
think
there
are
arguments
on
both
sides
of
those,
but
we've
done
this.
The
work-
and
actually
I
mean
there
are
some
differences
here.
N
A
lot
of
these
are
things
that
we're
looking
at
all
across
the
city,
so
putting
some
of
these
in
place
and
working
on
these
would
actually
give
us
some
insight.
That
would
be
helpful
in
other
parts
of
the
city.
The
interesting
thing
about
this
is,
you
know
every
every
neighborhood's
different
every
neighborhood's
the
same.
I
looked
at
those
pictures
that
they
sent
out
and
I
thought
you
could
look
at
that
and
say
well,
that's
probably
about
five
or
six
places,
there's
some
parts
of
woodridge
that
look
like
northeast
and
vice
versa.
N
So,
but
it's
it's
valuable
because
you
put
put
these
things
out
in
a
little
different
twist
or
something
in
different
parts
of
the
city,
but
so
overall,
I
I
feel
comfortable
with
moving
forward.
I
do
want
to
talk
about
the
the
adu
issue
and
I
understand
what
you
were
saying
mayor
about
this,
but
I
don't
think
that's
what
commissioner
I
mean.
Councilmember
of
barksdale
was
actually
saying
that
we
that
you
do
d-a-v-a-d-u's
so
that
older
people
could
stay
in
place
in
their
big
houses.
N
N
This
is
a
good
thing
to
do,
but
let's
look
at
it
later
and
then
it's
next
year.
Well,
it's
a
good
thing
to
do.
Let's
look
at
it
later,
so
I
would
support
the
as
written
here
and
on
that
on
that
issue
and
I
think
actually
it
meets
both
your
and
and
other
concerns
in
general.
On
this.
As
far
as
you
know,
I
I
I'd
like
to
see
what
councilmember
robertson
is
proposing
and
changes.
N
I
mean
they
sound
somewhat,
not
a
problem,
but
then
I'm
not
sure
whether
they
would
end
up
again
kind
of
putting
off
things
or
making
it
more
difficult
to
make
make
changes,
because
some
people
are
concerned
about
certain
things.
I'd
have
to
really
see
them
before.
I
would
agree
that
we
could
put
those
in
place.
N
I
think
adopting.
What
we
have
here
tonight
is
is
very
viable
and
changes
somewhat
in
language
and
tweaking
could
be
done,
and
I
do
think
the
work
that's
been
done
by
the
staff
is
is
very
good
and
on
the
issue
of
communications
during
the
pandemic,
it's
again
it's
one
of
those
things
where
there's
a
lot
of
validity
to
it,
but
in
a
way
it's
a
way
of
saying.
N
Well
again,
let's,
let's
kind
of
put
this
thing
off,
I
don't
know
it
seems
to
me
that
they're
pretty
good
and
I've
been
in
a
lot
of
these
meetings.
Yes,
meetings
on
zoom
is
difficult,
but
meetings
in
person
is
often
even
more
difficult
because
it's
easier
for
some
one
person
or
group
to
be
more
dominant
or
you
don't.
You.
T
N
I
don't
really
think
it's
that
much
different,
it's
different,
but
it's
not
harmfully
different
and
I
I
don't
have
a
real
problem
with
again
with
going
forward
with
it
again
it's
and
I
do
think
if
we
take
these
two
and
work
with
them
now.
This
will
help
us
in
our
looking
at
the
rest
of
the
city,
which
I
think
is
a
good
good
thing
to
do
and
yeah.
Thank
you
for
my
input.
O
O
I
think
people
are
proud
to
live
in
their
unique
neighborhood
and
I
think
this
process
we
just
did
it's
very
confusing
it's
one
of
the
reasons,
probably
because
of
the
covert
you
know,
the
virtual
communication
is
very
hard
challenging,
but
more
so
I
believe
that
when
we
talk
about
each
neighborhood,
we
ask
people
what
they
would
like
to
see.
I
think
we're
confusing
things
we're
using
the
vision
for
the
city.
O
You
know
which
we
all
support.
We
do
we
support.
We
support
all
the
things
that
are
being
presented
and
every
neighborhood.
If
you
talk
to
them,
would
you
support
the
city's
vision?
Of
course
they
do,
except
in
the
difference.
Is
that
how
you
do
it?
Where
do
you
do
it?
Your
neighborhood
is
appropriate.
You
know,
what's
the
unique
characteristic
in
your
neighborhood,
you
know
we
talk
about
that.
One
example
very
clear
that
I
can
show
you
know.
Someone
said
the
tree
where
two
tree
tree
ordinances
in
some
is
that
people
don't
like
lobster
trees.
O
They
want
a
view
and
in
bridal
trails
they
want
trees.
They
don't
they
don't
want
views,
you
know.
So
we
make
the
work
for
each
neighborhood.
You
know
because
they
are
unique.
They
are
different.
People
choose
where
they
want
to
go
to
living
with
consideration
of
the
overall
goal:
vision,
affordable,
housing,
absolutely
housing
options.
Absolutely
all
the
things
we
talk
about,
I
mean
we
mean
so
I
when
people
interview
ask
about
you
know
what
would
you
like
to
see
they're
confused?
O
They
say
yeah,
we
support
all
these
things,
but
remember
not
in
a
unique
neighborhoods,
and
that
is
the
uniqueness
and
that's
the
quality
where
belgium
provides
to
attract
people
to
come
to
live
in
neighborhoods.
So
I
believe
that,
let's
figure
that
out
talk
to
them.
That's
why
we're
listening
to
the
comments
from
the
people
say?
Gee,
you
know
you
we
talk
to
us.
We
give
you
all
the
inputs.
How
come
it
doesn't
show
up
how
come
it
is
reflecting
the
policies.
So
I
appreciate
what
planning
commission
has
been
doing.
O
B
B
O
Doesn't
make
any
difference
this
particular
one?
Not
you
know
if
we
want
to
put
whatever
triplex
duplex
in
in
a
residential
neighborhood,
not
all
of
them.
No
someone
every
appropriate
some,
I'm
not!
I'm
surprised
that,
and
also
we
changed
the
boundary
of
each
stable,
don't
forget,
and
I
I
didn't
have
any
idea
that
they
were
changing
it
significantly.
We.
O
AB
B
Being
proposed
tonight,
thank
you.
Councilmember
barksdale,
give
you
another
chance,
we'll
go
back
around
here.
D
All
right,
thank
you
mayor,
you
know
just
just
to
respond.
Councilmember
stokes
was
right.
I
wasn't
highlighting
just
age
and
place.
I
mean
it's
very
possible
that
the
the
gentleman
that
lived
in
the
house
could
have
moved
into
the
dadu
and
the
young
family
could
have
moved
into
the
house.
D
The
point
being
is
that
it
creates
actually
a
wealth
of
options
right,
whether
it's
a
boomerang
kid
who
has
left
the
house
and
needs
to
return
and
as
an
adult
now
and
wants
their
own
space
when
they
move
back
home,
whether
it's
aging
a
place
which
we
talked
about,
whether
it's
someone
who's
on
the
brink
of
losing
their
home,
but
now
they
can
rent
out
this
davu
for
additional
income
so
that
they
can
stay
housed.
I
think
there
are
a
range
of
reasons
for
supporting
davies,
and
I
just
want
to
provide
that
clarity.
D
So
what
I
would
love
to
see
just
in
terms
of
an
action
that
we
adopt,
what
we
have
tonight,
staff
already
says
they
want
to
explore.
The
community
is,
as
part
of
the
community,
is
asking
for
continued
engagement
as
part
of
exploration.
That
is
what
that
entails.
So
I
think
it's
already
accounted
for
and
we
can
still
it
doesn't
preclude
us
from
working
on
a
citywide
level
as
well
in
the
future.
B
Thank
you,
so
I
didn't
think
that
you
had
implied
about
the
aging
in
place.
Actually,
actually
the
document
does
so
I'm
referencing
what
the
document
says
and
that's
kind
of
a
foundational
premise
that
I
don't
agree
with.
I
think
you
should
have
the
option
to
age
in
place,
but
I
don't
think
that
that
should
be
the
ultimate
goal,
and
I
really
want
to
put
a
lot
of
thought
into
how
we
best
what
our
goals
are
with
dadus
actually
and
I
outside
of
that
in
terms
of
affordable
housing.
B
B
But
I
want
to
have
a
much
bigger
conversation
and
it
does
I
mean
it
does
talk
about
exploring
explore,
introducing
a
mix
of
new
housing
typologies
such
as
detached
accessory,
drawing
units
duplexes
and
triplexes
to
allow
options
for
a
range
of
households
and
if
that's
truly
just
about
exploring
and
doing
a
big
public
process
before
we
move
forward.
Then
I'm
okay
with
that.
B
But
I
just
want
to
change
our
mindsets
on
on
what
we
are
looking
at
in
terms
of
varieties
of
housing,
because
I
think
there's
been
too
much
of
an
emphasis
that
it's
just
fine
for
people
to
stay
where
they
are
in
their
single
family
home.
And
I
don't
think
that
that
I
think
it's
happening
because
they
don't
have
any
other
options.
B
So
that
that's
my
point.
So
having
said
that,
I
will
be
supporting
the
recommendations
and
hope
that
staff
will
have
listened
to
what
I
said.
Carry
my
thoughts
forward,
deputy
mayor.
F
Thank
you
mayor,
I'm
just
this
might
be
a
question
for
emil,
but
a
number
of
residents
have
emailed
in
asking
that
we
hold
off
on
the
adoption
of
the
northeast
and
northwest
neighborhood
great,
our
great
neighborhood
draft
and
then
wait
until
after
the
citywide
comprehensive
plan.
Update
is
done
in
2023.
X
Would
be
on
that
yeah
thanks
for
that
question,
I
think
the
the
cons
against
doing
it
are
that
there
would
likely
be
significant
additional
work
to
kind
of
restart
the
effort
if
we
were
to
put
things
on
hold
and
go
back
and
restart.
It's
actually
2024
is
when
the
the
periodic
plan
update
is
due
to
be
done.
I
think
it's
mid-june
of
2024,
so.
X
X
So
it's
it's
the
mobilization
and
clearly
re-engagement
with
the
community
and
just
starting
up
any
process
has
a
has
a
bit
of
you
know
additional
staff
time
and
rework
that
we
would
need
to
do.
There's
also,
I
think,
as
was
mentioned
a
number
of
times,
there
is
a
lot
of
things
that
are
so-called
in
in
alignment
in
these
plans
with
even
the
the
broad
community.
X
So
I
think
it
does
not
have
kind
of
the
new
fresh
plan
in
place
even
over
these
next
couple
years,
so
it
kind
of
delays
the
new
plan
to
replace
the
the
somewhat
aged
plans
in
this
even
near
term
window
here.
So
so
that's
another
con
against
it.
Some
of
the
some
of
the
pros.
Clearly,
if
the
council
wanted
us
to
undertake
a
significant
rework
of
the
plan,
it
does
allow
that
time
to
go.
X
Do
that
work
so
whether
it's
with
the
the
planning,
commission
or
directly
with
council,
you
know
it
does
allow
that
that
to
occur
at
a
at
a
future
date
would
probably
be
the
the
biggest
pro
to
that.
So
that's
that's
about
as
much
as
we
thought
about
that.
That
kind
of
toggle
of
pushing
that
out
a
couple
more
years.
Okay,.
F
Great
and
and
during
the
the
engagement
process,
was
it
because
I
think
maybe
some
of
the
confusion
with
some
of
the
residents
might
be
because
of
the
language
being
used.
You
know
the
lack
of
specifics,
sometimes
around
some
of
these.
I
guess
amendments
for,
for
example,
we're
talking
about
exploring
duplex,
et
cetera,
et
cetera,
so
there's
there's
still
time
correct
a
meal
for
residents
who
want
to
engage
in
that
process
to
weigh
in
at
another
time
on
their
neighborhood.
F
If
they
believe
that
those
types
of
housing
options
should
be
available
in
their
neighborhood
is
that
would
that
be
accurate?.
X
Yeah,
the
term
the
term
explore
was
specifically
put
in
there
and
it's
it's
the
idea
that,
as
elizabeth
described
these
these
are.
These
are
complicated
issues
that
have
significant
community
concern
about
it,
so
that
that
is
crystal
clear
even
from
the
outreach
we've
done.
So
something
like
talking
about
detached
adus
or
duplexes
or
triplexes
in
our
in
our
neighborhoods
does
necessitate.
You
know
broad
outreach
and
thinking
about
all
the
facets
that
might
make
them
fit
in
as
appropriate.
X
So
still
a
lot
of
work
to
do
to
actually
guide
that,
so
that
that's
in
a
nutshell,
how
we
describe
it.
Okay,
thank.
F
P
Council
members
on
yes,
thank
you
mayor,
so
I
would
say
that
for
me,
I
want
to
highlight
the
fact
that
I
appreciate
the
fact
that
we've
been
using
the
cultural
outreach
assistance,
because
I
would
like
to
make
sure
that
we
continue
to
do
that
as
we
move
forward.
This.
P
The
cpa
is
really
the
the
umbrella
for
exploration,
and
so
things
are
not
locked
in
and
there
will
be
multiple
engagements
and
touch
points
moving
forward,
but
I
think
the
community
deserves,
after
40
years
of
an
old
plan
to
for
us
to
adopt
this
plan
and,
at
the
same
time,
move
forward
with
the
engagement
on
the
different
options
that
our
dad
used
most
and
all
the
other
options
that
might
be
explored
as
the
mayor
and
council
member
bartsdale
talked
about.
P
I
also
think
that
you
know
we
had
also
talked
about
looking
at
the
tree
canopy
next
year
and
that's
another
place
where
we
didn't
have
a
lot
of
conversation
here,
but
I
think
certainly
that
could
also
be
done.
The
other
reason
I'm
recommending
that
we
adopt
this
plan
is
because
we
have
a
lot
of
things
in
our
work
plan
and,
if
we're
going
to
work
on
our
tree
canopy
and
a
number
of
other
things,
then
I
think
we
need
to
make
sure
that
we're
also
giving
that
the
due
diligence
that
the
community
is
looking
for.
P
P
P
R
Okay
mayor,
you
challenged
me,
I
so,
and
I
would
remind
the
council
that,
even
if
we
move
this
forward
tonight,
we're
not
adopting
it
until
december
13th,
that's
right,
email,
correct,
correct,
correct,
okay,
so
so
there's
time
to
to
fiddle
with
it
so
in
it
for
northeast,
I'm
just
going
to
lay
them
out
for
northeast.
In
addition
to
removing
the
dadu
term
from
sne
20,
I
would
inc
and
and
mayor
the
aging
in
place
issue
the
policies
in
northwest
that
are
21
to
23.
R
R
I
would
rewrite
that
and
I'll
read
the
part
that
what
it
says
and
tell
you
what's:
new
collaborate
with
neighboring
jurisdictions
to
promote
welcoming
experience
when
crossing
jurisdictional
boundaries,
that's
old
and
I
would
add-
and
work
with
neighboring
jurisdictions
to
ensure
that
development
impacts
are
mitigated.
Okay
on
the
sense
of
community.
R
In
the
paragraph
description
of
that-
and
this
is,
I
would
add,
this
to
northwest
and
northeast
both
on
page
10
and
11
of
both
plans.
I
would
add
a
new
paragraph,
probably
at
the
bottom
that
says
northeast
or
in
the
case
of
northwest
northwest
bellevue
residents,
value
living
in
a
safe
and
inclusive
community.
R
That
brings
safety
more
into
the
description
and,
I
would
add,
a
new
policy
to
both
that
says:
create
a
safe
community,
including
safe
places,
to
gather,
walk
and
play,
and
that
kind
of
focuses
on
the
safety
in
the
streets
in
the
environment.
On
both,
I
would
add,
not
a
new
policy,
but
in
the
description
that
just
says
northeast
or
northwest
bellevue
residents
value
having
a
clean
and
healthy
environment.
We
heard
that
a
lot,
but
that's
not
expressed
in
either
and
then
in
northwest
bellevue.
R
R
Finally,
on
the
general
housing
topology
discussion,
I
definitely
want
to
talk
about
putting
that
in
our
work
plan
when
we
get
our
planning
work
plan
brought
forward
first
quarter
of
2022
and
in
addition
to
talking
about
adus
and
dadus,
I
I
think
we
should
think
about
slotting
in
a
discussion
about
mcmansions
housing
types
and
mcmansions
versus
smaller
lot
size,
because
if
you
really
the
value
of
land,
you
can
either
have
a
redevelopment's,
either
going
to
be
a
max
housing
development
or
they
need
to
have
multiple
units
like
two
you
know,
so
I
think
that's
something
that
we're
going
to
need
to
grapple
with
some
point
on
housing
work
plan.
R
B
B
Okay,
thank
you.
Councilmember
stokes,.
N
N
I'm
just
having
fun
watching
the
introvert
talk
and
talk
and
talk
and
and
everything
else.
I
I
like
a
lot
of
what
you
said
on
this
going
forward.
I
didn't
catch,
I
mean
all
of
it,
it's
kind
of
in
there,
so
it
would
be
good
to
bring
this
back
the
the
only
and
I
do
like
a
lot
of
things
you're
talking
about
adding
in
there
and
thinking
about
them.
I
do
want
to
raise
the
question
about
it's.
N
It's
you
know
saying,
keep
everything
safe
and
all
I
mean
everybody
wants
that,
but
it
I
just
want
to
make
sure
we're
not
talking
any
code
words.
I
think
that's
something
we
really
need
to
explore.
What
do
we
really
mean
by
that?
Because
that
that
that's
one,
that
is
it's
a
tough
one
to
deal
with?
Does
it
mean
keeping
out
weird
people?
Does
it
mean
you
know
having
making
sure
your
sidewalks
are
repaired?
All
those
things
I
would
like
to
explore?
N
I'm
not
saying
kick
it
out,
but
I
I'm
not
sure
just
throwing
it
out.
There
really
says
a
whole
lot
and
it's
something
that
does
get
is
used
a
lot
by
people
who
do
unsafe
things
in
the
name
of
safety.
So
that's
the
only
one.
N
I
had
a
question
about
I
I
I
would
like
for
us
to
go
forward
on,
as
as
the
staff
on
on
north
east,
as
the
staff
has
recommended,
and
I
think
that,
because
waiting
waiting
to
see,
that's
just
delaying
things-
and
I
think
this
gives
us
an
opportunity-
as
I
said
before,
to
really
take
a
look
at
these
things
and
get
some
advanced
work
on
this
and
then
that
will
make
it.
I
think
better,
going
down
getting
to
the
rest
of
it
and
again
that
old
thing
of
not
to
decide
is
to
decide.
N
If
we
don't
decide
to
do
this
now
we're
kind
of
putting
this
off
and
then
it'll
be
so
easy.
Two
years
from
now
or
a
year
from
now
to
say.
Well,
you
know
we're
not
quite
ready.
Yet
we
need
to
move
on
this
and
I
think
it
has
enough
flexibility,
and
I
think
that
planning
commission
is
done
and
staff
working
together
done
an
outstanding
job
of
setting
this
up
so
that
it
really
gives
us
a
framework
to
work
with
and
and
things
to
look
at
and
something
that
will
be
beneficial.
N
For
I
don't
know
this
neighborhood
with
the
others,
and
you
know
remember
also
every
neighborhood
is
the
same
and
every
neighborhood
it's
different.
It's
so
we're
looking
at
both
those
at
attributes
is
what
is
what
is
common
and
what
is
different
in
their
neighborhood,
and
how
do
you
make
these
work
and
also
last
thing?
N
I
want
to
say
about
the
adus
and
all
that
is
I
you
know
growing
up
in
in
the
houston
area
and
then
in
dallas
living
in
dallas
and
all
you
know,
people
had
garages
that
were
not
connected
and
they
had
a
place.
You
know
their
va,
adus
or
dadus
and
nobody
worried
about
it.
I
mean
it's,
it's
a
concept
that
gets
stuck
into
a
kind
of
upper-class
neighborhoods
and
people
don't
want
to
do
them
and
there
are
a
lot
of
other
places
that
are
actually
have
those.
N
So
it's
not
a
new
concept,
so
I
hope
we
explore
those-
and
I
agree
the
mayor's
talking
about
that
too.
Let's,
let's
explore
it,
but
let's
keep
it
in
here
now
and
move
forward,
and
I
really
think
that
the
way
it's
been
set
up
by
staff
gives
us
the
opportunity
to
have
the
statements
made
and
I
think
that
it's
well
represented
by
the
community,
obviously
you're
going
to
get
some
people
who
don't
want
it
and
some
people
who
do-
and
I
think
they
made
a
a
choice
based
on
the
con.
That's
consensus
of
that.
N
So
I'm
I'm
ready
to
you
know
have
it
brought
back
to
us
and-
and
you
know,
certainly
look
at
anybody's
comments
or
changes,
but
I
think
they've
done
a
great
job
and
I
I'd
like
to
move
it
forward.
O
Yeah
every
neighborhood
is
different
and
they
are
individual
and
you
know
I
don't
presume
that
we
can
make
recommendations
the
same
to
everybody
every
neighborhood
the
same.
I
appreciate
councilman
roberts
and
come
up
with
some
real
good
suggestions,
but
you
know
I
don't
know
whether
it
covers
everything,
but
it
may
be
covered
too
much
for
certain
neighborhoods.
O
We've
been
waiting
for
this
neighborhood
planning
process
for
a
long
time.
You
know
we
haven't,
got
the
time
and
work
into
it.
Now
it's
happening,
so
I
think
it's
a
good
thing
we're
doing
that,
but
I
just
want
to
be
sure
that
when
you
have
the
separate
city,
white
vision
from
individual
neighborhoods
and
then
talk
to
the
neighborhoods,
have
them
see
what
they
see
what's
important
to
them.
What's
appropriate.
You
know,
I
support
all
those
things
I
support
aging
in
place.
O
You
know
some
places
are
very
well
done.
Some
people
will
like
that
would
appreciate
it.
Some
people
will
not.
You
know
you
cannot
force
builders
that
might
only
have
one
choice:
one
option:
we
need
to
provide
options
choices,
but
in
the
right
places,
right,
opportu,
right
kind
of
a
fit,
and
all
that
is
the
thing
that
we
want
to
put
my
people
with.
Is
you
know,
and
so
I
think
it's
important
another
thing
that
people
have
talked
about
is
this
new
development
with
the
big
big
big
mega
homes?
O
You
know
in
some
places:
yes,
it's
not
appropriate
in
most
places,
not
people
don't
see
that
as
a
right
character,
characteristics.
But
who
knows
you
know
new
buildings,
some
places.
You
know
it
depends
on
what
what
neighborhood
you're
talking
about,
but
in
general
I
think,
that's
what
we
need
to
talk
to
people
about.
We
need
to
communicate
with
them.
We
need
to
hear
from
them
each
individual
neighborhood
and
I'm
you
know
again.
O
AA
We
have,
I
think
we
started
our
work.
We
at
least
have
four
study
sessions
and
one
public
hearing,
and
I
think
we
started
receiving
stuff
from
staff
like
in
early
january
october
last
year,
so
yeah
long
time
we
are
involved,
but
I'm
sure
that
city
of
the
staff
has
been
done
their
homework
even
before
that,
because
there
are
many
interviews,
there
are
many
outfits
and
all
of
those
zoom
and
breakouts
room
that
we
were
talking
about
happened
before.
Even
it
come
to
us.
B
Yeah.
Okay,
thank
you.
Well,
so
I
think
that
there's
a
majority
council
that
would
like
to
direct
staff
to
return
with
the
ordinances
for
the
northeast
neighborhoods
propos
and
the
the
proposed
amendments
and
bring
back
some
some
different
language
about
what
we
talked
about.
Please,
so
that
we
might
address
that
at
that
next
meeting
and
decide
whether
we
want
to
include
some
of
the
additions
or
omissions
that
we
talked
about.
C
I
always
I
was
kind
of
going
where
you
were
going
there.
I
was
going
to
ask
emil
if
it
was
clear
in
terms
of
what
we
are
required
to
return
with
and
if
you
have
clarity.
X
Yeah,
I
think,
based
on
the
discussion,
the
actual
policy
amendments
that
were
discussed
came
primarily
from
council
member
robertson
that
she
kind
of
articulated
a
half
dozen
or
so
different
amendments
for
for
north
east,
and
I
think
we
do
understand
those
topical
areas.
X
My
understanding
she's
also
going
to
bring
some
up
for
northwest.
So,
let's
we'll
cross
that
bridge
when
we
get
there.
There
is
also
the
discussion
of
the
the
da
do
in
the
policy
that
that
is
replicated
in
council
member
robertson's
discussion.
So
with
that
will
be
included
in
that
option,
and
I
don't
I
don't
have
any
more
edits
from
any
more
council
members
who
were
supportive
of
bringing
it
forward
in
an
ordinance
in
mid-december.
B
P
P
Okay
and
then
any
14,
I
would
like
to
add
the
words
it
talks
about
creating
new
gathering
places
for
families
and
community
members
and
I'd
like
to
add
the
words
so
create
new,
publicly
accessible
gathering
places
so
add
the
words
publicly
accessible.
P
R
R
B
I
was
a
little
concerned
that
whatever
we
decide
for
northeast
and
northwest
bellevue
might
be
totally
different
for
another
neighborhood
and
so
by
keeping
it
in
a
neighborhood
plan.
You
invite
that
opportunity,
whereas
if
you
pull
it
out
of
the
neighborhood
plan
and
deal
with
it
as
a
city-wide
thing,
then
it's
a
policy
that
would
apply
to
the
entire
city
and
would
be
done.
D
Yeah,
thank
you
mayor,
so
my
thinking
was
that,
because
it's
already
in
as
explore,
introducing-
and
I
think
council
member
stokes
also
spoke
to
this
and
maybe
email
as
well-
it's
work.
That
would
happen
anyway,
once
we
say
carry
it
forward
as
a
city-wide.
If
that's
the
direction
we
went
in
so
the
idea
here
is
to
to
keep
it
in
the
current
policy
into
the
into
the
neighborhood
area
plans
and
it
doesn't
preclude
us
from
going
city-wide,
but
it
also
keeps
the
ball
moving
in
terms
of
staff
being
able
to
start
the
like.
B
So
emil
does
that:
do
you
risk
having
different
policies
for
different
neighborhoods?
If
you
do
it
in
the
neighborhood
plans,.
X
I
think
when
we
bring
it
back
to
council
to
to
talk
about
our
work
plan
for
2022
we'll
be
going
through
the
provisions
that
would
actually
be
included
in
a
potential
launch
of
the
dadoo
work.
So
we
would
talk
about
all
the
different
facets
of
daddoos
and
how
much
flexibility
might
be
warranted
from
a
neighborhood
to
neighborhood
approach.
So
we've
thought
a
bit
about
that,
but
have
been
focused
primarily
on
the
policy
and
clearly
not
the
code
work.
Yet.
B
X
I
guess
we
haven't.
We
haven't
contemplated
a
scenario
yet
for
other
neighborhoods
beyond
these
two,
so
I
think
it's
we're
working
with
the
information
we
have
to
date.
For,
for
these,
two
neighborhoods.
B
Well
that
that
is
why
I
think
I
still
think
we
should
consider
taking
it
out
and
just
doing
it
city-wide,
but
that's
you
know.
I
just
need
to
ponder
that
a
little
more
okay,
so
we've
given
staff
direction
and
we'll
have
a
little
more
work
to
do
when
it
comes
back
to
us.
So
thank
you
all
right.
Let's
take
we're
gonna,
be
here
all
night,
just.
B
I
know
there
is
okay,
all
right
good,
just
want
to
make
sure
I'm
aware
I'm
just
thinking.
Maybe
we
should
take
a
break,
but
now
I
realize
what
time
it
is,
and
we
probably
don't
have
time
for
breaks.
So
let's
go
ahead
into
the
northwest
section,
please
so
your
staff
are
you
going
to
do
a
separate
presentation
on
the
northwest?
Am
I
right.
Z
It
was
this
we're
just
going
to
hand
it
right
back
to
the
chair
to
go
through
the
same
kind
of
high
level
pieces
for
northwest
and
then
we'll
be
able
to
wrap
it
up
quite
quickly.
There
are
not
very
many
slides
as
part
of
this,
so
maybe
just
kind
of
highlight
the
pieces
that
are
different
and
that
will
help
add
to
your
discussion.
So
with
that
share
mel
kitchen,
can
you
take
it
away.
AA
Yeah,
of
course,
just
just
completely
give
you
an
overview
and
addressing
their
questions.
The
city
staff
started
their
journey
from
on
may
20
on
may
of
2020,
and
then,
after
all
of
those
community
outreach
meeting,
the
planning
commissioner
started
their
journey
of
april
of
2021,
so
it's
a
long
long
way
off
work.
But
let's
just
talk
about
northwest
bellevue
similar
to
northeast
bellevue.
AA
The
image
that
you
are
seeing
right
now
is
the
cover
of
the
recommended
plan
for
northwest
w,
which
is
attachment
f
in
your
tonight's
packet.
The
recommended
plan
include
very
similar,
the
five
topics
area
that
we
that
we
showed
you
before
with
policies
numbers
as
listed
on
this
slide
next
slide.
AA
Northwest
bellevue
wraps
around
downtown
bellevue
and
has
a
large
variety
of
land
uses,
including
commercial
industrial,
multi-family
and
single-family
uses
after
hearings,
residents
of
northwest
world
views
concerns
recommended
plan,
includes
policies
encouraging
buffering
or
transitioning
to
downtown,
maintaining
the
variety
of
sub
neighborhoods
and
prioritizing
pedestrian
improvements.
AA
The
planning
commissioner
staff
confirmed
consistently
of
this
plan
with
the
downtown
liability
project
at
our
direction.
Staff
also
added
language
emphasizing
the
importance
of
safety
along
transit
access
routes,
other
pedestrian
improvement
changes
were
discussed,
but
eventually
we
found
that
would
be
redundant
with
safety
and
pedestrian
improvement
policies
found
in
transportation
element
of
volume.
One
of
the
comprehensive
cloud
residents
of
northwest
bellevue
are
also
concerned
about
the
affordability
of
housing
policies
in
this
plan
encourage
new
housing
options
throughout
our
review.
This
language
was
modified
to
clarify
the
range
of
housing
types
needed
at
different
affordability
levels.
AA
After
several
discussions
on
this
topic,
we
recommended
staff's
proposed
language
to
explore
the
and
encourage
other
housing
choices
at
a
variety
of
scales
similar
to
northeast.
This
conversation
should
include
land
use
code
regulations
to
determine
what
is
appropriate
for
northwest
these
regulations,
which
would
ultimately
lead
in
the
land
use
code
are
not
proper
for
the
comprehensive
plan
next
slide.
Please.
AA
AA
In
addition,
the
commission
wanted
to
particularly
emphasize
the
importance
of
considering
the
affordable,
affordable
housing
strategy
alongside
these
plans
in
the
same
manner
as
for
north
east
of
youth.
Finally,
the
commission's
recommendation
for
the
north
west
beltway
plan
includes
a
request
for
the
council
to
specifically
discuss
safety
issues
in
the
area.
AA
Z
Thank
you
chair,
so
we
just
have
another
slide
or
two
here
and
we'll
wrap
it
up
to
add
a
little
bit
on
to
what
the
chair
just
described
on
this
slide.
The
first
bullet
is
the
same
as
for
the
previous
plans,
I'm
going
to
skip
over
that.
The
second
one
is
unique
to
really
addressing
safety
issues,
and
the
conversation
was
really
focused
on
pedestrian
safety.
Z
In
that
same
questionnaire,
where
we
discussed
the
adus
and
got
hundreds
of
responses
back,
there
was
also
a
question
about
a
prioritizing
improvements
and
which
types
of
mobility
improvements
should
be
prioritized
and
northwest
bellevue
particularly
highlighted
pedestrian
improvements
as
being
very
important.
Both
neighborhoods
did
so,
but
northwest
did
so
even
more
so
so
there
was
definitely
a
lot
of
discussion
about
that.
The
the
plan
does
have
a
lot
of
policies
about
that,
and
the
plan
is
recommended
by
the
planning.
Z
Commission
addresses
that,
but
staff
did
include
in
the
packet
and
attachment
g
that
highlights
a
few
amendments
that
could
be
made
to
strengthen
the
language
related
to
pedestrian
safety.
If
the
council
desired
to
take
those
up,
those
were
discussed
ahead
of
time
and
have
been
provided
for
you
to
take
a
look
at
if
desired.
Z
And
then
similar
to
the
last
plan,
there
were
some
continued
community
comments,
some
of
them
overlapped,
but
some
of
them
did
not,
and
so
we
wanted
to
highlight
those
you'll
you'll,
see
in
the
council
library
materials
that
there
were
three
letters
that
were
included.
The
first
was
from
the
loch
levin,
neighborhood
or
community
association,
and
this
focused
a
lot
on
the
housing
options.
Z
Question
and
provided
support
for
those,
with
the
caveat
that
there
were
11,
specific
code
regulations
that
they
were
interested
in,
seeing
so
very
in
line
with
what
we
described
about
the
codes
being
very
important,
this
conversation,
and
then
there
was
a
letter
from
three
residents
or
two
residents
and
a
recent
resident
who
wanted
to
to
follow
up
on
a
few
different
topics,
including
the
housing
concerns
and
their
concerns
about
what
the
adus
might
do
to
their
neighborhood
character.
Z
They
also
had
concerns
about
aging
in
place
and
those
are
definitely
addressed
in
a
few
different
places.
I
think
you
all
discussed
a
number
of
them,
but
it
is
important
to
consider
that
there's
sort
of
three
ways
that
the
plan
addresses
it.
The
first
is
in
making
sure
that
that
neighbors
come
together
and
help
each
other
out.
Z
The
second
is
about
the
physical
accessibility
of
public
spaces,
and
then
the
third
is
about
providing
a
range
of
options,
whether
it's
someone
continuing
to
live
in
their
same
home
or
downsizing
to
a
different
space
within
the
same
neighborhood.
All
of
those
are
kind
of
provided
for
by
a
variety
of
policies
in
the
plan,
and
then
the
final
one
is
this
first
discussion.
You
all
have
discussed
this
a
little
bit
the
the
potential
tear
downs
and
scale
of
housing
going
into
the
kind
of
mega
mansion
mcmansion
issue.
Z
We
wanted
to
highlight
that
northwest
bellevue,
as
we
highlight
in
the
state
of
our
neighborhoods,
is
a
neighborhood
that
has
had
17
percent
of
their
single
family
homes
torn
down
and
rebuilt
in
the
last
10
years,
and
that
is
by
far
the
the
neighborhood
that
has
had
the
most
of
that
activity.
So
we
wanted
to
highlight
that
as
an
important
issue
for
this
particular
neighborhood,
but
that
there
was
also
a
lot
of
discussion
about
that.
How
that
overlaps
with
issues
around
tree
canopy
and
housing
options
and
how
those
might
come
together?
Z
I
think
some
of
the
council
members
already
made
that
illusion
so
moving
forward.
You
can
see
the
same.
I'm
not
going
to
go
into
detail
on
this.
It's
very
very
similar
to
the
to
the
questionnaire
responses.
It's
just
slightly
different
numbers,
but
again
we
had
almost
stranded
responses
from
northwest
bellevue
and
it
was
very
split
in
a
very
similar
way
to
northeast
bellevue.
So
we
kind
of
covered
that
so
I'm
going
to
skip
right
on
and
just
kind
of
have
a
reminder
about
the
many
policies
that
are
included.
Z
Z
B
So
it's
the
same
question.
It's
just
about
northwest
bellevue!
You
have
in
front
of
you
a
bunch
of
proposed
amendments
recommended
by
the
planning,
commission
and
the
question
is:
are
you
good
with
directing
staff
to
return
with
them
or
do
you
have
any
changes
you
want
to
make?
So
we
will
start
with
councilmember
barksdale.
D
All
right,
thank
you,
mayor,
no
further
comments.
Beyond
what
I
made,
I
would
just
say
in
terms
of
the
potential
for
conflict
between
the
neighborhood
and
city-wide,
I
mean
again
we're
talking
about
exploring,
so
I
think
whatever
we
explore
and
learn
what
we
explore
will
feed
into
the
the
city-wide.
So
I
don't
think
there's
a
conflict
there.
Thank
you.
B
I
really
I
really
like
what
this
says
so
encourage
a
mix
of
housing
topologies
within
both
lower
and
higher
density
districts,
to
allow
for
a
range
of
affordability
options
with
a
variety
of
sizes
of
housing
units
ease
of
movement
for
the
physically
disabled
and
visual
styles.
I
think
that
says
it
all.
F
Thank
you,
mayor
yeah.
I
think
a
lot
of
my
comments
and
questions
were
already
addressed
during
the
the
northeast.
You
know.
I
think
this
is
when
I
want
some
more
time
to
think
about
the
the
city-wide
versus
the
specific
neighborhood
actions
or
ordinances
could
be
interesting
to
discuss
a
little
bit
further
and
yeah.
I
think
that's
it
for
for
me
for
right
now.
P
Yes,
thank
you.
I
want
to
say
that
I
support
the
attachment
g
that
talks
about
the
staff
recommended
beefing
up
that
language,
because
I
do
believe
that
seeing
that
one
third
or
two
one
third
of
the
residents
don't
drive
alone,
so
they
are
walking
biking
taking
transit
that
it
is
really
important
to
incorporate
the
recommended
attachment
g
language
to
strengthen
the
transportation
elements
in
northwest
bellevue.
P
I
think
that
will
be
a
really
important
piece
and
then
I
would
just
say
that
I
want
to
highlight
the
importance
of
actually
looking
at
neighborhoods,
because,
unlike
north
north
east
bellevue,
what
we
saw
in
the
demographics
of
north
west
bellevue
is
that
only
58
are
owner.
Occupied
and
half
for
single
family
and
half
are
multi-family,
so
that
is
certainly
a
different
outlook
than
in
northwest
bellevue,
where
80
were
owner
occupied.
P
So
as
we
really
look
at
the
different
housing
options,
I
think
that
the
character
of
those
sub
neighborhoods
is
going
to
be
important
to
look
at
and
especially
since,
as
you
said,
17
tear-downs
means
that
the
neighborhood
is
already
changing
and
so
to
the
degree
we
can
give
housing
options
to
northwest
bellevue.
P
R
Robertson,
thank
you.
So
I
already
commented
a
lot
on
this.
I
actually
think
you're
right
mayor
that
northwest
24
says
it
all.
R
I
would
delete
northwest
25
and
I
would
make
the
same
changes
that
I'm
recommending
for
northeast
on
the
sense
of
community,
adding
about
safety
and
the
new
policy
changes
to
the
environment
and
adding
the
policy
about
aging
in
place
to
the
other
three
really
great
policies
about
other
ways
to
age
in
the
neighborhood
and
then
I
would
add,
mobility
and
access
sections
and
policies
that
staff
recommends,
and
I
I'm
going
to
send
an
updated
email
to
the
staff
group
with
all
of
this,
so
it
can
be
included
in
the
packet
for
next
time.
R
N
Yeah,
I
agree
with
the
comments
made
so
far
pretty
much.
I
I'm
you
know
it's
fascinating
again
to
see.
So
what
is
what
is
really
different?
And
I
think
here
because
they're
they're
not
really,
but
there
are
some
things
I
think
that's
what
we
have
to
focus
on
and
the
interesting
one
is
the
tear
downs
and
again
I
like
that.
The
idea
that
we're
starting
to
look
at
a
neighborhood
on
that
issue,
because
this
is
an
issue
that
is
hitting
the
whole
city.
N
N
But
you
know
we're
getting
a
lot
of
pushback
from
a
lot
of
other
parts
of
the
city
about
people
coming
in
and
buying
these
houses
and
the
particularly
the
smaller
you
know,
mid
mid-century
cottages
and
things
and
then
building
these
big
houses,
and
it's
it's
all
across.
So
this
gives
us.
My
point
is
this:
gives
us
the
opportunity
to
look
at
what
is
really
a
more
of
a
region
of
a
city-wide
issue,
but
in
a
smaller
scale
and
one
that
is
really
pushing
an
area
at
this
point.
N
So
again,
I
think
you
know
we
look
at
what's
different
and
a
lot
of
it
is
going
to
be
the
same
as
we
find
in
other
neighborhoods,
and
this
gives
us
an
opportunity
to
get
ahead
of
instead
of
instead
of
waiting.
So
I'm
very
comfortable
with
this,
and
I
appreciate
a
number
of
things
that
council
member
robertson
is
bringing
up
and
I
think
that's
comes
from
her
working
with
with
cities
and
all
and
I'm
you
know
fine
with
it.
N
I
don't,
I
think,
she'll
bring
it
back
and
bring
back
some
of
these
recommendations
and
then
we'll
have
a
you
know
more
detail
and
real
good
discussion.
But
the
planning
commission
did
a
great
job
on
it
and
staff.
O
Thank
you.
My
comment
to
the
northeast
of
bellevue
applies
here
as
well,
but
it's
even
more
magnified
here,
because
this
area
has
a
lot
of
different
individual
neighborhoods.
We
talk
about
apple
valley,
diamonds,
range
view,
crafts,
spring
hills,
neighborhoods
and
all
that
and
they
all
very
different,
and
they
would
like
to
obviously
be
considered
separately
differently.
They
have
different
needs
and
I
think
I
was
wondering
if
there's
any
comment
that
could
be
included
regarding
individual
characters
or
recognizing
or
working
with
that.
I
think.
O
That's,
probably
something
I
don't
know
whether
the
milk
has
already.
B
Asked,
let's
ask
chairmal
cushion
if
he
feels
that
that
was
already
covered
in.
O
O
Okay,
thank
you.
One
last
question
is
about
detached
adus.
There
are
rules
and
regulations.
You
know
the
lockhaven
community
actually
talked
to
us
early
on
in
the
communication
with
the
council.
There
are
requirements.
All
those
I
assume
will
be
considered
when
you
know
we
do
you
know
it
is
compatible,
that's
it.
So
I
assume
that's
in
some
way.
X
The
the
issues
that
were
brought
up
in
the
two
correspondents
are
the
types
of
things
that
would
be
discussed
in
an
actual
land
use
code.
Amendment
process.
Okay,
thank
you.
B
Yes,
okay,
thank
you
very
much
and
thank
you
chairmal
cushion
for
sticking
with
us
tonight
and
for
the
good
work
on
the
planning,
commission
and
youtube
council
member
barksdale.
Thank
you.
So
I'd
like
a
motion
to
extend
the
meeting.
I
think
we're
going
to
have
to
go
to
11.
I
hate
to
tell
you
that,
but.
AB
B
B
Okay,
we
are
on
to
our
next
study
session
item
our
last
study
session
item.
Mr
miyake,
would
you
like
to
introduce
this
please.
C
Sure,
mayor
council,
members
yeah,
the
last
study
session
item
out
of
three
is
the
best
practices
and
recommendations
relating
to
permanent
support
of
housing.
Just
by
a
way
of
background
on
august,
2nd,
the
council
directed
staff
to
conduct
research
and
provide
recommendations
on
two
topics
related
to
current
support
of
housing,
best
practices.
C
One
was
the
neighborhood
outreach,
engagement
and
relationship
building,
and
the
second
was
evaluating
on-site.
Supportive
services
based
on
population
serve,
but
you
will
hear
a
brief
presentation
from
the
staff
and
after
the
presentation
and
q,
a
staff
does
seek
direction
on
next
steps
regarding
the
evaluation
of
best
practices
with
that
joining
us
this
evening,
again
is
emilio
king
and
tara
johnson.
With
that,
I'm
turning
it
over
to
emil.
X
E
X
X
Okay
mayor,
if
you
just
hold
on
one
second
and
I'll,
go
ahead
and
load
it
up
from
my
machine.
X
Thank
you,
sherman
yep,
okay
staff
are
here
tonight
to
present
our
work
on
permanent
supportive
housing
best
practices.
X
Bellevue
is
incorporating
housing
models
into
the
city,
such
as
supportive
housing,
where
there
has
been
some
recent
questions
about
how
we
can
learn
from
others
and
find
potential
approaches
that
would
benefit
bellevue
moving
forward
for
these
housing
types
next
slide.
Please
share
me.
X
We
are
seeking
direction
from
council
tonight
on
two
specific
topics
relating
to
supportive
housing,
best
practices.
Staff
was
asked
to
conduct
research
back
in
august
and
identify
best
practices
and
how
they
might
be
incorporated
into
either
the
city
code,
funding
agreements
or
other
mechanisms
as
appropriate
and
we're
reporting
back
to
council
tonight.
X
On
the
first
topic
of
best
practices
relating
to
outreach
and
engagement,
the
recommendation
is
for
council
to
direct
staff
to
develop
a
community
engagement
guide
that
would
be
used
by
prospective
supportive
housing
providers
in
developing
a
community
engagement
strategy
for
their
project.
The
community
engagement
guide
would
be
outside
of
the
city's
land
use
code.
X
This
would
allow
for
a
thoughtful
approach
in
looking
at
each
project's
needs
during
the
city's
future
funding
processes
and
also
allow
for
the
variability
and
project
needs
based
on
the
lived
experiences
of
resident
populations
to
be
served
to
go
into
a
little
bit
more
detail.
I'm
going
to
have
things
over
to
tara
she'll,
be
covering
the
background
and
context
for
this
work.
Findings
from
our
research
and
a
little
bit
more
detail
on
our
staff
recommendations.
Y
Thank
you
emil
and
sorry
about
the
technical
issues
charmaine.
If
you
could
go
to
the
next
slide,
so
zamil
indicated
a
little
bit.
I
wanted
to
touch
a
little
bit
on
some
of
the
background.
As
council
may
recall,
when
we
came
before
you
in
august,
council
discussed
whether
to
initiate
staff
work
research
around
best
practices.
Y
The
intent
at
the
time
and
discussion
around
the
deliberations
at
the
august
meeting
was
to
determine
if
any
best
practices
could
be
incorporated
into
the
land,
use,
code
or
city
funding
agreements
for
psh
or
permanent
supportive
housing,
or
whether
there
are
other
mechanisms
that
the
council
should
consider.
Y
Y
So
in
performing
our
research
as
directed
by
city
council,
we
went
through
and
contacted
some
of
our
local,
affordable
housing
partners,
so
we
contacted
arch
also
some
of
the
housing
permanent
support
of
housing
providers
like
plymouth
and
compass
housing
and
then
also
did
an
overall
research
analysis
on
approaches,
both
literatures
research,
academic
research,
as
well
as
approaches
used
by
other
jurisdictions
specific
to
the
topic
areas
directed
by
council.
Y
If
you
could
go
to
the
next
slide.
Thank
you
so
just
to
provide
a
brief
summary
of
what
we
found.
We
found
specific
examples
of
community
engagement,
approaches
for
psh
within
the
cities
of
seattle,
bellingham
and
then
also
the
city
and
county
of
denver.
Y
Seattle
and
bellingham
have
specific
requirements
within
the
land
use
code
for
certain
types
of
supportive
housing
as
part
of
the
overall
permitting
process.
Seattle
requires
notification
to
property
owners
within
500
feet
when
a
psh
project
is
going
to
is
being
proposed.
Bellingham
requires
an
operations
plan
with
a
community
outreach
component.
Y
We
would
like
to
note
that,
in
talking
with
both
seattle
and
bellingham
staff
indicated
that
the
effectiveness
of
these
approaches
has
not
really
been
evaluated
since
they're
fairly
new
requirements
in
looking
at
the
city
and
county
of
denver.
What
we
found
was
a
pretty
comprehensive
community
engagement
guide
that
focuses
specifically
on
interactions
between
neighborhoods
and
psh
developers,
as
well
as
their
providers.
Y
Y
A
little
bit
more
detail
on
the
next
topic
area,
which
relates
to
provision
of
on-site
supportive
services.
If
you
could
go
to
the
next
lecture,
I
mean
thank
you
in
reviewing
in
reviewing
some
of
the
analysis
and
just
approaches
used
by
other
jurisdictions.
Staff
really
focused
on
focused
our
research
on
jurisdictions
of
similar
size
and
scale,
and
at
the
time
the
research
was
conducted,
we
did
not
find
any
specific
land
use
code
requirements
for
on-site
services
within
cities
of
similar
size.
Y
This
is
just
a
chart
of
some
of
the
typical
on-site
services
not
going
to
read
all
of
them
to
you,
but
just
want
to
highlight
a
couple
for
your
review:
independent
life,
skills,
training,
personal
support,
crisis,
intervention,
eviction,
prevention
and
then
also
additional
clinical
support.
Y
If
you
could
go
to
the
next
slide
so
just
to
highlight
our
staff
recommendations,
which
I
think
we
provided
a
little
bit
of
detail
in
our
initial
direction
overview.
Y
Y
We
also
recommend
that
it
remain
outside
of
the
land
use
code,
similar
to
city
of
denver's
approach
and
emphasize
a
community
engagement
strategy.
That's
based
on
population
served
and
a
scale
of
a
project
compared
to
its
surroundings.
Y
Our
second
recommendation
relating
to
on-site
services
relates
to
working
with
psh
providers
when
the
city
is
a
funding
partner
for
these
services
and
as
emil
indicated,
we
feel
like
this.
This
strategy
would
allow
for
a
more
thoughtful
approach
in
looking
at
a
project's
needs.
When
we
go
through
our
future
funding
processes,
which
council
will
be
which
council
will
be
presented,
when,
of
course,
we
come
back
with
our
1590
recommendations
and
also
be
able
to
adjust
best
practices
for
services
over
time.
Y
We
do
not
recommend
at
this
point,
modifying
the
land
use
code
to
require
on-site
services
and
with
that,
if
you
could
go
to
the
next
slide,
and
so
that,
with
that,
I'm
going
to
turn
things
back
to
to
the
mayor
provide
provide
us
with
an
opportunity
to
answer
any
questions
and
for
council
discussion.
Y
R
Thank
you.
I
don't
really
have
any
questions,
because
I
had
my
briefing
last
week.
Thank
you
for
that.
I
will
just
give
my
input.
I
do
think
that
we
should
direct
staff
to
go
ahead
and
move
forward
with
this.
I
like
the
idea
of
a
community
engagement
guide.
R
I
would
go
a
step
further
and
say
and
encourage
that
we
add
a
provision
to
our
grant
funding
application
form
whether
people
have
complied
with
the
guide
or
not,
and
that
when
people
are
trying
to
cite
or
starting
the
process
to
site
this
type
of
facility
in
bellevue
they're.
Given
the
guide
and
told
that
you
know,
if
you
want
to
apply
for
grant
funding,
you
will
be
asked
whether
you've
complied
and
you
will
score
much
better.
If
you
have
gone
through
this
process,
we
highly
encourage
it.
R
I
would
like
to
have
that
approach
to
that.
With
regard
to
the
on-site
services,
I
think
that
slide
eight
says
it
all
that
says
on-site
supportive
services
resulted
in
higher
rates
of
remaining
in
stable
housing,
and
so
again
I
think
that
that's
it's
really
important.
These
services
are
really
important:
supportive
housing.
R
The
first
word
supportive,
meaning
your
support
services,
so
I
would
like
to
make
sure
that
our
grant
application
is
modified
so
that
we
can
ask
about
what
on-site
service,
what
services
will
be
provided,
whether
they
will
be
on-site
and
if
some
or
all
of
the
services
will
not
be
on
site,
whether
there
will
be
transportation
to
take
the
residence
to
the
services.
I
think
that's
it's
not
as
good,
but
it's
certainly
better
than
just
you
can
take
a
bus
down
across
town
to
get
to
the
services.
R
So
I
think
that
we
want
that
kind
of
information
in
the
grant
applications,
and
I
hope
that
when
we
are
scoring
these,
that
is
something
we
look
at
very
seriously,
because
we
don't
just
want
to
warehouse
people.
We
want
to
support
them
into
permanent,
stable
housing
and
that's
where
the
services
absolutely
are
critical.
R
So
thank
you
for
doing
the
work.
Thank
you
for
bringing
it
back.
I
don't
have
any
questions,
but
that's.
I
would
encourage
council
to
follow
the
staff
recommendation
with
the
couple
of
nuanced
nuances.
I've
added
thank
you.
N
Yeah,
I
think
this.
This
is
very
good.
I
and
I'm
glad
we're
approaching
this
from
a
breast
best
practices
approach,
and
I
think
what
this
sets
a
good
bar
for
this
and
a
good
framework.
N
I
think
we'll
find
that,
like
in
plymouth,
housing
and
a
number
of
the
people,
as
I
understand
it,
and
talk
a
lot
of
people
about
it
on
that
people
are
providing
now
kind
of
do
this,
but
this
this
gets
it
more
uniform
and
actually
engages
gives
us
a
framework
to
work
with,
of
course,
some
you're
going
to
have
some
differences.
I
understand
that
too,
but
yes,
obviously,
I'm
glad.
We
all
agree
that
supporting
services
are
very
important
and
that's
that's
built
into
into
this.
N
It's
built
into
the
the
king
county
effort,
and
we
need
to
make
sure
that
in
talking
with,
you
know
other
people
that
they
actually
do
that.
But
from
our
standpoint
I
think
this
really
advances
things
and-
and
we
can
just
continue
to
do
some
more
outreach
to
find
out
other
what
other
people
are
doing.
And
I
know
there
are
a
lot
of
other
or
what
I'm
trying
to
say,
units
that
are
out
there
already.
We
can
find
from
that.
N
So
I
I
like
it
and
I
I
think
it's
something
we
can
get
put
in
place
and
start
working
with
it
right
now,
because
if
we
have
this,
we
are
going
to
get
people
who
will
really
know
what
they're
doing
and
do
the
best
job.
So
great.
That's
what
I'd
hoped
that
we
would
do
when
we
started
talking
about
this.
Thank
you.
I
agree.
Let's
send
it
to
the
staff
to
put
it
together.
Thank.
F
Thank
you,
mayor
actually,
quick
question.
First,
the
city
of
denver
so
was
that,
based
on
best
practices
based
on
third
party
review,
or
is
that
based
off
of
staff's
recommendation
on
staff's
view
of
what
would
be
best
for
the
city
of
bellevue?.
Y
Deputy
mayor,
can
I
can
I
clarify
your
question:
are
you
are
you
asking
if,
if
our
recommendation
is
based
on
conversations
with
the
city
of
denver
staff
or
what
that
process,
or
are
you
asking
what
that
process
was
to
to
develop
the
community
engagement
guide.
F
I'm
asking
how
you
arrived
at
the
city
of
denver
was
that,
due
to
research
based
on
either
awards
or
recognition,
that
denver
is
doing
it
best
or
what
is
that
staff's
analysis
that
the
way
the
city
of
denver
is
doing?
It
would
would
work
well
in
the
city
of
bellevue.
Thus,
do
you
think
that
would
be
a
best
practice
for
bellevue.
Y
Thank
you
for
clarifying,
so
I
think
our
approach
was
just
looking
in
general
across
the
country
and
even
within
canada.
As
to
what
you
know,
what
approaches
there
have
been
for
community
engagement
relating
to
permanent
support
of
housing
and
actually
denver's
was
featured
fairly
prominently.
That
came
up
also
similar.
You
know
a
lot
of
similarities
between
denver
and
bellevue
and
in
terms
of
light
rail
and
tod
planning,
and
so
we
thought
that
was
a
good
comparison
later
on.
Y
We
did
find
that
seattle,
seattle
and
bellingham
also
had
their
their
approaches
to
community
engagement
into
in
looking
through
denver's
compre
community
engagement
guide.
We
found
that
it
was
fairly
comprehensive
and
very
detailed
did
seem
like
they
provided
a
lot
of
different
opportunities.
Y
We
may
not
maybe
going
to
that
level
of
detail,
maybe
not
the
appropriate
fit
for
bellevue.
That's
something
we'll
need
to
look
at
further.
F
Okay,
okay,
great
well,
thank
you
for
answering
that
and
yeah
I'm
absolutely
in
favor
of
directing
staff
to
further
develop
this
engagement
guide.
I
think
it's
going
to
be
a
great
tool.
It's
going
to
ensure
that
we're
using
best
practices
in
our
community.
I
you
know,
I
love
the
the
idea.
You
know
if
you
want
to
have
current
supportive
housing
in
bellevue.
Here's
what
it's
going
to
take
here
here:
here's
kind
of
your
roadmap
and
and
expectations
in
terms
of
outreach,
engagements
and
wrap
around
services,
etc.
F
I
think
it's.
I
think
it's
a
great
thing,
I'm
glad
we're
looking
at
it
now
and,
like
I
said,
happy
to
move
this
forward.
So
thank
you.
P
Yes,
thank
you.
Thank
you
emil
and
thera.
I
I
thought
that
this
was
very
good
work
and
you
know
I
I
want
to
actually
give
thanks
to
council
member
barksdale.
I
believe
it
was
his
idea
that
we
look
at
this
as
the
best
practices
guide,
instead
of
embedding
it
with
a
land
use
code,
and
so
I
think
we
need
to
acknowledge
that
this
was
one
of
the
suggestions
that
he
had
initially
with
this.
P
So,
as
I
understand
it,
the
1590
money
that
we
have
would
be
eligible
to
be
used
for
this,
because
I
I
would
say,
in
addition
to
asking
a
question
about
making
sure
that
they
are
using
our
best
practices,
that
we
need
to
be
willing
to
commit
to
providing
1590
money
to
provide
the
supportive
services.
P
I
wonder
if
it
might
be
worthwhile
to
reach
out
tonight
to
the
national
league
of
cities
of
which
we're
a
member,
and
they
certainly
have
a
lot
of
guides
and
and
best
practices
manuals
that
have
been
developed
over
time,
and
my
understanding
is
that
the
new
incoming
presidents
has
homelessness
as
one
of
his
focus
areas
moving
forward.
So
that
might
be
a
good
area
to
look
for
different
information
and
then
making
sure
that
we
have
a
process
for
updating
the
best
practices.
As
new
information
comes
up.
Thank
you.
B
B
That
shows
that
this
is
what's
important,
and
the
thing
that
I'm
excited
about
is
that
you
kind
of
made
it
that
you
that
on-site
services
is
embedded
into
that.
Well,
that
is
best
practices.
On-Site
services
is
the
best
you
can
do,
and
so
I'm
really
pleased
that
that
could
be.
B
You
know
just
the
the
bottom
line
of
of
having
some
permanent
supportive
housing
in
bellevue
includes
on-site
services
as
much
as
possible,
and
I
do
wonder
if
we
can't
just
look
at
what
plymouth
has
done
in
terms
of
their
community
outreach
and
their
community
engagement
that
they've
done
and
and
use
that
as
a
guide,
because
I've
heard
so
many
positive
things
from
a
lot
of
different
people,
what
a
good
job
that
they
are
doing,
and
so
that
might
be
worth
looking
into
as
as
a
template
for
what
we
do
here.
B
Thank
you.
Okay,
councilmember
barksdale,.
D
All
right,
thank
you,
mayor
yeah.
I
just
want
to
thank
tara
and
email
for
the
work
that
they
did
on
pulling
doing
the
research
and
pulling
together
the
recommendations.
D
I
think
it's
the
right
balance
in
terms
of
helping
to
inform
how
what
works
in
bellevue,
while
not
creating
a
barrier
to
being
able
to
open
or
provide
the
type
of
housing
that
we
need
for
our
vulnerable
members
of
our
community.
So,
thank
you
again
and
that's
it.
O
Thank
you.
It's
great
job,
doing
the
two
most
important
thing
and
I
believe
on
you
know:
community
engagement
and
also
the
on-site.
You
know
service
supportive
services
and
you
do
it
through
getting
some
best
practices.
Findings.
I'm
just
curious.
Are
you
looking
for
any
additional
ones?
Besides
seattle,
bellingham
and
denver,
because
you
mentioned
that
they're
still
relatively
new,
they
may
not
have
all
the
necessary
data
for
us
to
to
use
a
satisfactory
theory.
So
that's
my
first
question.
O
O
So
if
you
answer
me,
those
first
question:
first,
in
terms
of
best
practices
and
what
else
are
you
looking
for
or
are
you
going
to
develop
it,
and
I
believe
that
you
know
like
the
councilman
robertson
mentioned,
the
support
of
unsizable
services
definitely
is
critical
to
the
success,
but
in
what
we're
doing
and
you're
doing
great
job
moving
the
thing
along.
I
appreciate
that
so
best
practices.
X
I
can
go
ahead
and
answer
that
one
councilmember
lee
so
the
the
initial
outreach
to
the
cities
of
seattle
and
bellingham.
They
had
a
very
specific
approach
about
additional
notice
requirements
and
an
additional
community
meeting
that
they
were
requiring
and,
as
tara
mentioned,
those
were
relatively
new
things
that
they
had,
that
even
their
staff
weren't
quite
sure
the
outcome,
the
positive
outcomes
that
those
were
delivering.
So
we
as
staff
will
probably
monitor
those
things,
but
I
think
the
based
on
the
direction.
X
It
sounds
like
we're
receiving
from
council
tonight
that
we
would
be
taking
an
alternative
approach
to
do
a
in
a
recommended
community
engagement
guide
that
clearly
we
would
look
at
additional
things
like
national
league
of
cities
if
they
had
any
good
examples
out
there.
X
I
think
the
idea
to
follow
up
with
local
providers
like
plymouth
to
help
inform
the
community
engagement
guide
is
a
great
idea
and
clearly
that
would
be
something
that
we
would
you
know
take
take
some
time
to
make
sure
we
find
the
right
fit
for
that
community
engagement
guide
for
bellevue.
So
thanks
for
the
question
councilmember
lee,
thank
you.
B
Okay,
so
I
think
that
I
see
a
consensus
with
staff's
direction
and
I
appreciate
the
if
this
services
are
going
to
be
off-site
that
there's
a
some
explanation
on
the
transportation
that
will
be
provided
to
get
clients
to
the
services
and
council
member
robertson.
You
said
that
you
had
another
nuance
here:.
R
No,
the
two
nuances
were
we.
Let
people
know
that
we
expect
them
if
they
want
funding
from
the
city.
We
sorry
I'm
getting
very
tired.
B
R
That
they
would
need
to
do
the
outreach
as
a
funding
partner
and
that
our
our
grant
applications
would
include
information
about
the
outreach
there
you
go
and
about
the
support
of
services,
on-site
and
or
off-site
and
transportation.
But
I
just
wanted
that
included
in
the
grant
application.
That's
just
further
work
as
they
developed
that
under
the
1590.
R
right
so-
and
I
really
appreciate
mayor
robinson,
deputy
mayor,
newinghouse
and
councilmember
lee
for
voting
to
initiate
this
work
and
having
so
that
staff
could
bring
it
back
and
bring
us
this
recommendation.
So
thank
you
for
supporting
this.
N
A
N
Some
other
providers
like
that
we
should
check
with,
and
actually
I
do
appreciate
the
fact
that
this
has
been
brought
forward
in
a
different
form
than
original,
and
I
think,
we've
all
come
together
on
a
really
weight
best
way
to
go
with
best
practices.
So
thank
you.
C
AC
Thank
you,
mr
miyaki,
good
evening,
mayor
and
council
members.
The
item
of
business
before
you
now
is
consideration
of
an
application
to
re-zone
a
site
in
the
crossroads
sub-area,
that's
known
as
the
safeguard
self-storage
site,
and
the
request
is
to
rezone
it
from
office
to
community
business.
This
is
the
latest
in
a
series
of
rezone
applications
that
have
come
before
you
to
implement
comprehensive
plan
amendments
that
the
council
approved
a
year
ago.
This
is
a
process,
three
decision,
the
hearing
examiner
made
a
recommendation
and
the
council
will
make
the
final
decision.
AC
AC
The
purpose
of
the
presentation
tonight
is
to
give
a
high-level
overview
of
the
project
and
allow
you
to
ask
questions
based
on
the
record
before
the
hearing
examiner
liz
stead
and
riley
pittman
from
development
services
are
here
tonight
and
they
will
give
you
that
overview
and
then
we
will
plan
on
being
back
on
december
6
to
ask
council
for
final
action
on
this
rezone
application
so
before
I
turn
it
over
to
miss
dead
and
mr
pittman,
because
this
is
quasi-judicial
mayor.
AC
I
recommend
that
we
ask
council
members
to
disclose
any
ex
parte
contacts
that
they
may
have
had
with
either
an
opponent
or
a
supporter
of
this
project
and
council
has
as
usual.
Excuse
me.
Staff
has,
as
usual,
look
already
looked
in
council's
emails,
so
you
just
have
to
disclose
anything.
That's
not
in
your
council
email
boxes.
B
Okay,
so
should
I
go
through
each
council
member
council
members
on
any
exported
communications,
no
councilmember
lee
any
expertise,
communications.
O
O
AD
The
request
is
to
re-zone
a
site
which
is
currently
used
as
a
self-storage
site,
a
currently
zoned
office,
and
the
proposal
is
to
make
that
be
zoned
community
business
to
be
consistent
with
a
prior
amendment
of
the
comprehensive
plan.
This
is
a
site-specific
rezone,
but
there
is
no
proposal
for
development
at
this
time.
AD
Process
briefly
is
this
is
a
quasi-judicial
decision
made
by
city
council,
the
city
hearing
examiner,
held
a
hearing
on
october
21st
and
recommended
approval
of
this
reason
to
council?
No
appeals
were
filed
based
on
the
recommendation
of
the
hearing
examiner
and
any
questions
you
might
have
regarding
that
project
should
be
directed
to
the
city
attorney.
AD
Again,
this
is
following
a
comprehensive
plan
that
was
approved
in
december
of
2020,
that
was
to
change
the
underlying
lane,
use
of
the
property
from
office
to
community
business
and
as
well
a
prior
determination
of
sipa
determination.
Non-Significance
was
issued
in
october
of
2020..
AD
AD
Briefly,
the
site
is
adjacent
to
the
crossroads
park
to
the
west
and
the
south.
The
salvation
army
headquarters
is
directly
to
the
east,
which
is
an
office
building
to
the
north
is
multi-family
housing
and,
as
you
can
see,
to
the
east
on
the
other
side
of
164th
avenue
is
single-family
housing
and
northeast
8th
is
just
the
south
adjacent
to
the
lots
itself.
AD
The
site
and
surrounding
properties
which
include
the
crossroads
park,
our
zone
office
to
the
north
is
r30
and
to
the
east
is
a
single
family.
Zoning,
with
the
crossroads
shopping
and.
AD
Site
currently
is
made
up
of
several
single
story:
storage,
buildings
and
outdoor
storage
parking,
the
site's
primarily
paved
with
minimal
vegetation.
It
is
currently
composed
of
several
lots.
Currently,
it's
it's
one.
Large
lot,
that's
been
combined
for
tax
purposes,
with
two
smaller
lots
that
border
the
private
road
to
the
north
of
the
site.
AD
This
project
was
found
to
be
consistent
with
the
line
use
code.
Any
future
development
that
may
come
in
will
be
subject
to
language
code
in
place.
At
the
time
of
application.
AD
The
project
is
subject
to
design
review
and
isn't
in
transition
area,
so
those
those
codes
would
be
applicable
at
the
time
of
application,
as
well.
AD
So
it's
a
mixed
use
potential,
so
it
could
allow
for
retail
commercial
other
uses
besides
multi-family
residential.
So
that
is
one
aspect
of
the
comp
plan.
There
is
an
update
required
for
that
to
proceed
with
this
site
to
proceed
with
residential
development.
AD
B
Okay-
so
I
I
remember
this
being
before
the
council
before
we're
not
making
any
decision
tonight,
we're
just
answering
questions
anybody
might
have
so
I'll.
Let
you
raise
your
hand
if
you
have
a
question
you'd
like
staff,
to
answer
about
this.
Otherwise
we'll
just
move
on
and
we'll
we'll
expect
to
see
this
back
again.
B
So
I
not
seeing
anybody's
hands
raised,
we
will
move
on
and
thank
you
for
the
presentation.
Okay.
So
now
we're
on
to
our
ordinances.
We
have
four
of
them.
So,
let's
start
with
the
first
one,
mr
bianch.
C
Well
mayor,
thank
you
very
much.
As
you
mentioned,
there
are
three
ordinances
and
sorry,
three
yeah
three
ordinances
and
one
resolution
in
front
of
you
this
evening
related
to
adoption
of
the
21
22
mid
by
budget
action
on
these
ordinances
and
resolution.
Concludes
the
21
22
mid
biennium
process
update.
C
It
includes
a
number
of
adoption
of
development
fees,
property
taxes
and
budget
appropriation.
Adjustments
with
that,
given
the
I'm
going
to
turn
over
to
tony
call
our
you
know,
director
of
our
facilities
and
asset
management,
so
she
could
walk
us
through
the
different
ordinances
for
you
to
take
action
on
tony.
AB
Certainly,
I
will
happy
to
do
that.
It
seems
my
video
is
not
quite
working
this
evening,
so
I'm
just
going
to
turn
the
video
off
and
you're
going
to
just
look
at
my
picture.
I
believe
this
evening.
I
apologize
for
the
the
glitch
because
I'm
not
showing
on
the
screen.
So
before
this
evening,
as
city
manager
miyaki
mentioned,
there
are
four
ordinances.
AB
It
is
the
adoption
of
the
mid-biennium
review.
The
mid-biennium
as
a
reminder
is
substantially
technical
in
nature.
It
includes
inflation
revenue
adjustments.
It
also
includes
correction
of
errors
and
a
variety
of
other
miscellaneous
adjustments.
It
follows
the
adopted
direction
from
the
adopted
budget
from
the
2122
budget.
That
council
adopted
a
year
ago
staff's
been
impr
in
front
of
you
approximately
four
times
over
the
course
of
last
month.
Development
services
was
here
on
october
25th.
AB
We
did
an
overview
of
the
entire
mid-biennium
on
november
8th
and
then
last
week
you
held
a
public
hearing
where
we
received
feedback
primarily
on
environmental
stewardship,
stewardship,
climate
change
and
the
tree.
Canopy
land
use
options
before
you
this
evening
is
four
ordinances,
so
I'll
just
introduce
the
first
one
mayor
and
then
send
it
back
to
you
so
ordinance.
AB
B
Okay,
so
any
comments
or
questions
on
this
I
have-
I
have
one
myself,
I
you
know
we
talk
a
lot
about
affordable
housing,
development
of
affordable
housing
and
trying
to
make
it
more
affordable
to
develop,
affordable
housing
and
and
decreasing
fees
in
any
way
that
we
can.
It's
part
of
our
affordable
housing
strategy.
Q
Thank
you,
tony
mayor.
As
far
as
this
year's
fee
update,
we
did
not
consider
that
and
you're
correct.
There
is,
as
part
of
the
council's
affordable
housing
strategy,
an
item
c5.
I
think
you
heard
a
speaker
earlier
this
evening-
referenced
that
that
talks
about
reducing
the
cost
of
of
buildings
or
building
affordable
housing,
reduced
fees
is
one
option
that
that
is
listed
under
that
that
item.
Q
I
think
one
of
the
challenges
is
that
we
have
a
cost
recovery
objective
in
development
services,
so
we
need
to
figure
out
if
we're
still
providing
permit
review
services,
which
we
would
for
these
projects,
how
we
pay
for
those
services
in
this
particular
circumstance,
also
noting
that
each
affordable
housing
project
offers
a
little
different
set
of
variables,
scale,
number
of
housing,
units
number
of
affordable
housing
units,
etc.
Q
So
it'll
take
a
little
bit
of
work
to
explore
that,
so
I
would
suggest
that
we
bring
it
back
as
part
of
the
work
that
we'll
be
doing
to
kind
of
the
next
things
that
the
council
wants
to
consider
as
far
as
their
affordable
housing
work
plan.
We
can
put
this
one
on
the
list
and
you
can
consider
it
as
part
of
that.
B
I
I
appreciate
that,
and
I
think
that
the
speaker
also
brought
up
a
good
point
of
considering
speed
of
permitting
for
expediting
permitting
in
some
way
for
affordable
housing.
But
I
look
forward
to
that
conversation.
So
no
more
questions
or
comments
for
me
so
not
seeing
anybody's
hands
raised.
Is
there
a
motion.
F
I
moved
to
adopt
ordnance
6620
regarding
development
services
under
the
bellevue
city
code,
fees
for
applications
requiring
construction,
land
use,
fire
survey,
sign
transportation,
utility
and
clearing
and
grading
review
and
inspection
services
providing
for
severability
and
repealing
ordinance
number
six.
Five,
five
one.
E
AB
Mayor
ordinance,
6621
will
establish
the
amount
of
property
taxes
to
be
levied
in
the
year
2022.
It
does
include
the
one
percent
property
tax
adjustment,
as
directed
under
the
adopted
budget
from
21
to
22..
Mayor
back
to
you.
O
Thank
you.
I
heard
the
tony
call.
The
director
of
finance
mentioned
that
we
could
either
you
know,
cut
some
expenditure
or
we
can
find
other
sources
of
funding.
We're
talking
about
what
percent
levies
about
630
000.
I
think
that's
probably
correct
yeah.
You
know.
I
always
feel
that
you
know
we
oftentimes.
You
know
the
ticket
to
for
granted
and
raise
property
taxes,
because
that's
you
know
the
the
most
easy,
the
most
reliable
tax
we
can
raise,
and
so
I've
always
you
know,
voted
against
it.
O
But
this
time
I
think,
through
the
lab
epidemic,
I
recognize
there's
so
many
challenges,
so
many
needs
for
additional
funding
and
we
actually
had
weathered
our
revenue
shortfall
and
I
think
that
under
that
kind
of
circumstance
I
really
appreciate
what
the
city
has
done,
and
so
I
asked
our
director
see
if
there's
any
place
that
we
can
actually
cut
some
money
off
and
she
couldn't
come
up
with
anything
and
I've
been
scratching
my
head
quite
a
bit
too
because
of
the
situation
I
just
described.
O
So
I
would
this
time
I
was
supported
with
great
reluctance,
so
normally
I
would
vote
against
it
and
then
we'll
go
for
the
whole
tax
package.
But
in
this
case,
since
it's
included
in
this
motion,
I
would
you
know
again
very
reluctantly,
vote
for
it.
That's
it.
O
B
F
Q
B
Any
opposed,
oh,
my
goodness,
okay,
go
ahead
with
the
resolution
here.
Please
certainly.
AB
Resolution
one
zero
zero
three
two
provides
for
us
to
bank
our
excess
levy
capacity
under
rcw.
The
bank
capacity
would
be
approximately
8.9
million,
and
that
would
be
reserved
for
future
council
action
as
council
directs.
B
F
E
AB
Currently,
mayor,
the
last
ordinance
before
you
this
evening
is
six
six
two
two.
It
is
actually
what
we
term
commonly
known
as
the
umbrella
ordinance.
It
includes
all
revenues
and
appropriations
by
fund.
It
also
includes
several
administrative
items
such
as
the
city's
pay
plans,
a
list
of
donations
and
grants,
and
it
also
includes
the
effective
date
of
the
budget.
Y
O
B
Can
all
those
in
favor
say
I
he
opposed
okay,
excellent
work
tonight
I
want
to
thank
you
all
for
your
extra
time
and
the
good
conversations
that
we
had.
We
will
not
need
a
meeting
next
week,
so
we
will
be
on
break
until
after
thanksgiving.
I
wish
you
all
a
very
special
thanksgiving
and
I
look
forward
to
seeing
you
then
thank
you
good
night,
happy.
