We
farm
not
only
for
a
healthy
crop
today,
but
for
a
successful
harvest.
Tomorrow
we
work
with
passion,
tenacity
and
courage
to
overcome
daily
obstacles
and
greet
each
morning
as
a
renewed
opportunity
to
serve
the
city
we
so
love.
Thank
you,
everybody
for
your
great
work
this
year
and
I
am
going
to
ask
councilmember
robertson
before
we
start
this
meeting
to
talk
about
her
work
on
the
regional
transit
committee,
because
it
was
really
quite
something
councilmember,
robertson,.
C
Thank
you
mayor.
Yes,
I
it's
been
a
banner
week
banner
month.
So,
as
many
of
you
know,
I
serve
on
the
regional
transit
committee
for
king
county
and
I
am
just
finishing
a
year
as
the
vice
chair
of
that
committee
and
the
sound
cities
caucus
chair.
The
committee
has
finished
two
years
of
work
in
delivering
three
major
policy
documents
that
will
drive
how
transit
is
grown,
expanded
and
invested
in
in
the
future,
and
those
documents
are
the
strategic
plan.
The
service
guidelines
and
metro
connects,
which
is
the
capital
plan
for
metro.
C
Sound
cities
worked
to
develop
amendments
and
we
collaborated
closely
with
many
members
of
the
county
council,
with
members
of
the
seattle
city
council,
with
metro
transit
and
with
the
county
equity
cabinet.
This
really
rich
collaboration
built
a
very
broad
support
for
the
new
policy
documents
and
these
came.
They
were
unanimously
approved
by
the
regional
transit
committee.
Then
they
were
unanimously
approved
by
the
mobility
and
environment
committee
and
last
week
the
documents
were
unanimously
approved
by
king
county
council.
C
Every
single
amendment
that
sounds
cities
proposed-
and
I
think
there
was
about
11
of
them,
went
through
with
unanimous
support.
So
I
want
to
just
give
you
a
little
outline
of
what
these
do.
The
new
policies
put
equity
front
and
center
by
intentionally
targeting
transit
service
to
historically
marginalized
populations.
C
They
also
significantly
increase
transparency
around
metro
decision-making
process,
so
the
council
and
the
public
have
a
better
understanding
of
how
how
the
transit
system
will
better
better
serve
people
living
in
king
county.
They
also
help
to
ensure
the
network
is
supporting
the
county's
growing
population
and
job
centers,
like
bellevue,
with
a
new
metric
to
track
the
transit
network
alignment
and
residential
and
job
growth.
These
are
only
a
few
of
the
improvements
that
metro
and
rtc
members
made
into
the
policy
documents.
C
Also,
I
want
to
let
you
know
that
sca
caucus
was
widely
acknowledged
to
have
been
a
key
player
in
creating
cohesion
and
widespread
support
for
the
policies
they
worked
really
hard
and
our
staff
worked
really
hard
with
us.
I
wanted
to
particularly
thank
bellevue
staff
members,
lacey,
jane
wolfe
and
kitty
halsey.
They
did
incredible
work
in
bringing
this
all
together.
C
The
staff
met
more
frequently
than
even
the
electeds,
and
we
were
meeting
a
lot
during
the
past
few
months
and
just
as
we
were
starting
the
most
intense
part
of
the
work,
the
sca
staff
member
for
the
committee
left
and
so
katie
and
lacy
jane,
jumped
in
and
played
a
much
larger
support
role
than
I
think
that
any
of
us
could
have
anticipated.
C
But
the
work
was
really
successful
and
I
think
that
the
policy
work
will
serve
the
county
and
bellevue
really
well
in
the
future,
and
I,
like
you,
know,
I've
been
on
a
lot
of
committees.
D
C
The
years
I
have
never
worked
harder
on
a
committee
than
I
have
on
this
one
and
it
really
paid
off,
and
so
I
know
that
as
you're
going
about
the
county
council
was
really
really
grateful.
That
sound
cities
did
such
a
heavy
lift
to
bring
this
home
with
unanimous
support.
So
that's
that's
kind
of
something
to
celebrate
and
something
I'm
grateful
for
all
the
work
of
all
those
electives
and
staff
to
get
this
done.
So
thank
you,
mayor
for
letting
me
talk
about
that.
Thank.
E
B
F
G
H
F
I
B
Deputy
mayor
is
there
a
motion
to
approve
the
agenda.
I.
L
B
Any
any
opposed
okay
city
clerk
who
do
we
have
signed
up
for
oral
communication
tonight.
Thank
you.
A
M
We
believe
the
current
draft
reflects
a
balance
and
measure
approach
to
preserving
the
sense
of
community
and
neighborhood
character,
while
further
defining
the
boundaries
from
downtown
bellevue
and
increasing
emphasis
on
neighborhood
safety
and
ability
for
residents
to
age
in
place.
It
is
important
to
note
that
one
size
does
not
fit
all
and
that
all
parties
need
to
be
aware
of
this.
As
city
as
the
city
looks
to
draft
other
neighborhood
plans,
we
encourage
you
tonight
to
vote
in
support
of
the
draft.
That's
before
you
as
outlined.
In
our
previous
comments.
M
We
believe
there's
a
path
forward
to
embrace
and
implement
a
mix
of
housing
typographies,
including
affordable
housing.
Alternatives
as
outlined
in
policy
nw
24.
lca,
would
welcome
participation,
participation
in
an
advisory
role
towards
evaluating
considerations
and
establishing
guardrails
to
support
this
objective,
while
protecting
the
character
of
our
neighborhoods.
M
Looking
ahead,
we
believe
it's
very
important.
We
remain
steadfast
to
the
principles
and
policies
within
this
plan
and
not
permit
private
parties
and
developers
to
compromise
the
integrity
of
this
work.
As
we
speak
before
you
tonight,
the
city
is
faced
with
a
proposed
amendment
to
the
northwest
comprehensive
plan
for
the
record.
Lca
has
challenged
the
applicant's
legal
standard
and
have
asked
the
city
attorney
to
disqualify
this
application.
M
The
applicant
did
not
own
the
property
on
september,
8th
when
first
engaged
in
the
city
and
as
of
tonight,
still
does
not
own
it.
If
approved.
This
amendment
would
change
the
property
from
a
multi-use
family
high
to
mult
mixed
use,
which
would
allow
retail
commercial
while
increasing
the
height
to
45
feet.
Additionally,
it
would
be
subject
to
a
threshold
review
which
could
expand
this
to
other
properties
within
lockhlavin.
M
N
N
N
N
N
The
plans
still
are
not
perfect.
There
are
still
areas
where
I
think
neighborhood
protection
is
weak,
but
they
are
considerably
improved
and
I
own,
I
am
okay
with
them
tonight.
I
ask
one
thing:
further:
next
year,
the
city
will
undertake
the
major
comprehensive
plan
update
for
bellevue
and
is
discussed
in
a
november
22nd
study
session
additional
study
on
housing
topologies
in
the
neighborhoods.
N
O
Yes,
can
you
hear
me?
Yes,
thank
you.
Your
time
begins
now.
Okay,
great
first
of
all,
I
just
want
to
thank
you,
council
members,
for
your
time.
You
know
I
listened
to
the
study
session
from
november
22nd.
That
meeting
lasted
until
11
p.m.
So
I
really
commend
you
council
members.
Thank
you,
I'm
very
pleased
with
the
amendments
and
I,
along
with
other
residents
in
the
northwest.
O
We
also
support
the
amendments
to
the
northwest
draft
and
I'm
so
happy
to
hear
that
safety
and
environment
is
going
to
be
emphasized
in
the
draft,
and
I
want
to
further
just
make
this
point
about
the
amendment
to
omitting
northwest
24,
which
relates
to
the
dadus.
I
want
to
point
out.
You
know
last
time.
O
In
the
study
session
council
member
lee
mentioned
some
words
of
wisdom
from
the
study
session,
which
was
we
can't
confuse
city
policy
with
community
needs
and
neighborhood
needs,
and
our
neighborhood
is
not
comfortable
with
moving
forward
with
dad
used
to
explore
it
at
this
time.
I
think
if
we
wanted
to
move
forward
to
explore
the
edu's,
it
should
be
in
another
kind
of
survey
or
further
engagement
report.
The
current
engagement
report
shows
that
there
was
only
6.7
percent
of
people
that
returned
mailers
and
0.2
percent
that
came
to
a
policy
focused
event.
O
So
I
would
really
like
to
see
the
staffers
continue
to
commit
to
you
know
accommodating
to
residents
hearing
our
voices,
but
I
would
really
like
to
see
more
engagement
in
moving
forward
with
the
other
neighborhood
plans,
more
engagement
in
the
in
the
surveying,
especially
when
it
relates
to
policies
like
ddus.
So
again,
I
fully
support
all
these
amendments,
especially
to
omit
northwest
24..
I
just
don't
think
we're
ready
for
that,
along
with
many
other
neighbors
that
support
this
as
well.
Thank
you.
J
Thank
you
good
evening.
Thank
you
for
the
opportunity
to
speak
tonight.
My
name
is
victor
bishop
and
I
served
as
the
former
chair
of
your
transportation
commission
and
I'm
currently
the
legislative
chair
of
the
east
side,
transportation
association,
I'm
here
speaking
about
agenda
item
12c,
which
is
ordinance
6633.
J
Eta
sent
a
letter
to
the
council
on
december
1st
this
year
on
on
the
this
issue.
The
four
points
that
we
made
in
that
letter
are
first,
that
the
city
council's
budget
surveys
over
the
last
decade
have
all
identified
traffic
congestion
as
the
number
one
issue
on
the
minds
of
the
residents
of
the
city.
J
Secondly,
in
2016
the
voters
of
the
city
approved
a
a
property
tax
levy
that
specifically
has
congestion
relief
in
the
title
of
the
levy.
It's
a
20-year
levy
that
started
in
2017
and
you're
selling
bonds
to
do
congestion
relief
projects.
J
Third
is
the
typical
loan
that
the
city
negotiated
in
in
2017,
with
the
u.s
federal
government
for
100
million
dollars,
with
200
million
dollars
of
city
money,
matching
the
federal
loan
to
make
traffic
congestion
relief
projects
arterial
streets
in
the
bell
red
corridor,
and
that
is
ongoing
and
we'll,
and
that
loan
is
good
for
35
years.
We've
got
an
obligation
for
that
kind
of
time,
and
the
fourth
item
was
the
development
impact
fees
that
the
city
collects
under
the
growth
management
act
and
the
city.
J
The
developers
are
required
to
mitigate
their
congestion
problems,
but
the
city
has
an
obligation
to
do
the
city's
portion
of
those
projects,
so
it's
incumbent
on
the
city
to
maintain
reduced
congestion
as
a
primary
function
of
the
comprehensive
plan.
So
with
that,
I
will
say
thank
you
and
I
appreciate
the
opportunity
to
speak.
P
Good
evening,
mayor
robinson
and
council
members
and
city
manager
miyake
good
to
see
you
again,
I
I
attended
a
city-hosted
meeting
on
friday.
That
was
quite
uplifting
and
I
think
it's
pretty
relevant
to
your
considerations
after
the
first
of
the
year
and
finding
some
additional
money
for
environmental
stewardship
work.
So
I
just
want
to
briefly
give
you
the
background
that
I
learned
there
because
you
might
otherwise
not
hear
about
it.
P
This
was
the
first
meeting
of
the
residential
energy
efficiency
working
group
or
work
group
and
jennifer
ewing.
Of
course,
the
environmental
stewardship
program
manager
hosted
it,
and
I
can't
tell
you
everything
that
went
on
there,
but
it
was
very
impressive.
It
was
a
90-minute
meeting
and
mostly
speakers
from
different
areas
of
synergy
we're
doing
presentations
in
summary,
jennifer
listed
some
goals
for
next
year.
P
Eventually
it's
going
to
support
low-income
people
and
we
had
participation
from
affordable
housing
groups
at
the
county,
level
and
city
level
and
hope
link
people
were
there.
So
this
has
a
lot
of
promise
to
help
our
our
less
advantaged
folks
in
the
community
do
the
right
thing
and
actually
reduce
their
their
energy
bills.
So
I
think
it
has
a
lot
of
merit
going
forward
and
I
really
have
to
applaud
jennifer
ewing
and
the
city
staff
that
came
together
to
do
this
presentation.
They
did
a
great
job.
P
Of
course.
Now
we
have
to
see
how
this
develops
next
year.
It
took
us
a
whole
year
to
get
here
from
last
december
when
the
environmental
stewardship
plan
was
passed
and
it's
probably
going
to
take
another
year
to
launch
this
somewhat
limited
program.
So
we
really
need
to
think
about
that
as
you
go
forward
into
the
new
year
and
we
know
it
can
be
done.
P
Boulder
colorado
is
one
city,
that's
had
a
program
going
for
10
years
and
over
10
years,
they've
done
retrofits
on
20
000
homes
and
that's
the
kind
of
program
we
need
here.
I
just
hope
we
can
get
it
going
next
year.
So
please
be
thinking
about
that
as
we
go
into
the
new
year
and
meanwhile
happy
holidays
to
you
all
and
thanks
for
tolerating
my
many
speeches
to
you
this
year,.
Q
Good
evening,
council
members,
chris
randalls
2501
148th
avenue
southeast
apartment
c5,
I'm
a
renter
who's
lived
in
lake
hills
neighborhood
for
the
last
seven
years
and
I
frankly
loved
it.
I'm
an
environmental
science
researcher
and
community
organizer.
My
partner
is
a
caregiver
and
we
both
dream
of
settling
down
in
bellevue
the
city
that
we've
made
our
home
to
start
a
family
someday.
Q
However,
what
you
might
notice
about
us
is
that,
even
though
each
of
our
jobs
are
important
and
contributes
to
a
better
community
and
city,
neither
of
us
work
in
particularly
lucrative
careers
phil
we
dream
of
buying
property
and
building
wealth
in
the
city
close
to
our
friends
and
community,
since,
as
far
as
I
know,
all
members
of
the
council
currently
own
their
homes.
I
hope
you'll.
Allow
me
to
take
you
through
what
our
experience
looking
for
homes
as
lower
income.
Renters
has
been,
like.
Q
I
checked
zillow.com
this
afternoon
for
homes
in
my
zip
code
of
98007,
and
I
found
four
listings:
one
was
for
a
lot
of
land
at
6.5
million
dollars.
So
that's
definitely
a
no
another
was
for
a
three
bedroom,
two
bath
house
for
1.3
million.
So
that's
also
no
two
condo
listings
we're
just
north
of
500k,
which
okay
definitely
would
still
be
a
little
bit
hard
for
us
on
our
incomes.
We'd
have
to
save
up
for
a
while
and
hope
for
a
couple
of
promotions,
but
that's
definitely
doable
with
time.
Q
Q
And
I
do
say
all
this
not
to
be
overly
defeatist.
But
to
remind
this
body
of
the
power
you
all
have
in
solving
this
solvable
problem.
Our
city
can
and
must
build
not
just
more
housing
but
more
types
of
housing.
Diverse
housing
types
like
datu's
need
to
be
in
all
areas
of
the
city
to
ensure
equitable
impacts,
and
you
can
all
take
actions
to
make
that
happen.
Q
Dadus
are
a
small
step
on
the
way
to
solving
the
affordable
housing
problem,
but
they're
an
important
one,
because
they
enable
choice
and
that's
really
the
purpose
of
what
adu's
conserve
in
bellevue.
They
enable
people
to
have
an
additional
option
as
they
make
the
choice
about
the
right
housing
for
their
family.
For
example,
a
small
law
with
a
dadu
would
work
really
well
for
my
family.
Q
If
bellevue
is
a
place
where
people
can
start
a
family
and
diversity
is
our
strength,
then
it's
really
a
time
that
we
have
housing
choices
that
can
suit
the
diversity
in
our
city's
families.
So
I
encourage
councils
to
not
delay
in
taking
the
small
but
important
step
towards
a
better
bellevue
for
all.
Thank
you.
D
D
Thank
you
good
evening
and
happy
holidays
mayor
robinson
and
members
of
the
council.
It's
nice
to
see
you
if,
even
on
zoom
for
the
record,
my
name
is
todd.
Woosley
and
my
address
is
one
zero.
Six

southeast
20th
street
here
in
bellevue,
my
zip
code
is
98004.
D
I
appreciate
the
opportunity
to
provide
public
comment
tonight,
specifically
about
agenda
item
12c,
ordinance
6633,
which
will
amend
the
transportation
element
of
the
comprehensive
plan.
I've
lived
and
worked
in
bellevue
for
decades,
including
serving
as
vice
chair
of
the
transportation
commission,
and
appreciate
what
a
great
city
it
is.
One
of
the
reasons
for
this
is
bellevue
has
strong,
effective
policies.
D
D
Unfortunately,
the
current
draft
changes
this
policy
to
manage
words.
Do
matter
out
of
curiosity,
I
looked
up
the
definitions
of
the
existing
and
proposed
wording
and
would
like
to
share
those
with
you.
Here
are
the
definitions
of
manage
versus,
reduce
according
to
miriam
webster,
dictionary
quote,
manage,
implies
direct
handling
and
manipulating
or
maneuvering
toward
a
desired
result.
D
In
your
memo,
the
fiscal
note
says:
implementation
may
influence
future
decision
making
in
proposed
investments
unless
reducing
congestion
remains
a
comprehensive
plan.
Policy
bellevue
risks
not
making
the
necessary
investments
to
maintain
our
mobility
and,
finally,
also
in
your
agenda
memos
executive
summary.
It
states
that
the
planning
commission
recommended
approval
of
the
transportation
element
amendment
they
did
more
than
this.
They
also
recommended
that
council
retain
the
policy
goal
of
reducing
congestion
after
their
public
hearing
on
this
issue,
and
there
it
was
unanimously
supported
by
the
public
comment.
D
R
Your
time
begins
now.
Thank
you,
alicia
wig.
My
address
is
on
file
honorable
mayor,
deputy
mayor
and
council
members
tonight
before
you,
you
have
the
opportunity
to
approve
the
east,
may
land
use
code
and
to
adopt
an
amendment
that
would
allow
a
grocery
store
to
be
part
of
the
new
east
maine
neighborhood.
R
I
hope
you
adopt
both
tonight.
We
support
the
proposed
amendment
to
allow
a
block
length
and
perimeter
exception
for
grocery
stores.
We
are
eager
to
get
started
both
mon
and
I
would
like
to
convey
our
deep
gratitude
to
each
of
you
and
to
staff
for
over
seven
years
of
hard
work
on
east
main.
It
has
been
a
long
journey,
but
we
cannot
say
thank
you
enough
to
everyone
who
has
been
willing
to
listen
and
engage
with
us.
We
believe
that
by
working
together
through
this
process,
the
final
code
is
that
much
stronger.
R
S
Thank
you
good
evening,
mayor
robinson
council
members
on
commenting
on
behalf
of
the
bellevue
downtown
association
to
advocate
adoption
for
ordinance,
6633
pertaining
to
the
transportation
comprehensive
plan.
Amendment
updating
the
comprehensive
plan
with
these
new
transportation
elements
establishes
the
groundwork
for
the
mobility
implementation
plan,
a
very
important
framework
for
bellevue
and
how
we
support
growth
and
allows
us
to
report
a
full
mobility
picture
to
the
state
ensuring
that
we
meet
the
growth
management
act
requirements.
S
If
you
plan
to
continue
your
discussion
about
whether
this
policy
should
say
manage
or
reduce
congestion,
I
urge
the
council
to
consider
how
vehicle
congestion
can
be
reduced
in
downtown
if
we
expect
more
people
to
be
in
downtown,
and
it's
just
a
thought
and
a
question
that
I
want
to
put
out
there
as
you
continue
to
explore
that
topic.
S
Our
committee
members
review
tr-2-
that
was
a
that,
was
one
element
of
our
focus
and
what
we
came
out
with
was
a
suite
of
recommendations
and
how
we
can
guide
implementation
of
this
new
update
and
make
sure
that
we
have
the
ability,
to
course
correct
when
needed.
We
understand
that
this
is
a
big
policy
update
that
we
from
current
standards
that
we've
long
held
in
down
in
bellevue
and
that
making
the
right
move
is
what's
necessary
as
we
continue
to
address
growth.
S
So,
as
you
work
your
way
through
the
agenda
tonight
consider
how
we
can
support
growth
and,
what's
the
rest,
the
right
way
and
be
sure
to
ask
good
questions
of
city
staff.
I
look
forward
to
their
answers.
Thank
you.
A
T
T
A
Thank
you,
ms
buchanan.
That
is
the
end
of
our
pre-registered
list
of
speakers
this
evening.
At
this
point,
I
would
ask
if
there
is
anyone
connected
to
this
call,
who
would
like
to
make
a
comment
to
the
council?
Please
use
the
raise
hand,
function
or
star9
if
you
are
connected
with
a
phone,
and
I
see
one
raised
hand,
and
that
is
mr
walters.
Can
you
hear
me.
U
Hi,
my
name
is
mark
walters.
I
live
on
97th
avenue
northeast.
I
live
within
the
loch
london
community
and
I
am
on
the
board
of
the
loch
levin
community
association,
the
recent
rezone
application
to
the
comp
comprehensive
plan
that
will
change
the
lock,
loving
community.
This
is
the
one
that
mr
spiesel
mentioned
during
his
presentation
led
me
to
attend
my
very
first
planning
commission
meeting
last
week,
but
I
just
want
the
council
to
know
that.
U
I
was
greatly
impressed
by
how
the
planning
commission
members
conducted
the
meeting,
and
I
was
especially
impressed
by
how
the
planning
commission
staffs
presentations
during
the
meeting-
and
I'm
I'm
new
to
this,
so
I'm
not
going
to
go
much
further,
but
I
just
want
you
to
know
that.
I
want
to
thank
the
planning
commission
and
the
planning
commission
staff
for
the
professionalism
and
I
look
forward
to
working
with
them
in
the
future.
Thank
you.
B
Okay,
thank
you
very
much
everybody.
So
next
we
have
a
report
from
the
city
manager.
I
think
we
have
some
good
news
coming
from
the
city
manager,
mr
miyake.
V
Thank
you
mayor
and
council
members,
and
I
have
two
items
under
the
city
manager's
report
that
I'd
like
to
report
on
both
very
good
news
items.
The
first
one
is
the
2021
digital
cities
award
and
I'm
just
so
pleased
to
bring
this
to
your
attention
that,
for
the
fifth
straight
year
in
a
row,
the
city
has
received
a
digital
cities
award
for
their
creative
use
of
technology.
V
Staff
are
here
tonight
to
highlight
some
of
the
projects
that
want
us.
This
award
so
joining
us
this
evening
are
sabre
schneider,
our
chief
information
officer,
pj
rodriguez
assistant
director,
within
our
rit
department
and
anjuan
wang,
a
senior
manager
with
all
both
all
three
within
the
information
technology
department.
So
with
that
I'll
go
ahead
and
turn
it
over
to
the
I.t
staff.
W
Thank
you
very
much
city
manager,
miyaki
and
good
evening,
mayor
robinson,
deputy
mayor
newinghouse
and
council
members.
I
am
honored
to
be
here
tonight
with
pj
rodriguez
chief
operations
officer
for
the
it
department
and
anjo
wang
senior
I.t
manager,
also
in
the
it
department
discussing
our
2021
digital
cities
award
as
city
manager
miyake
mentioned.
This
is
our
fifth
year
in
a
row
that
bellevue
has
placed
in
the
top
five
in
the
digital
city
survey
and
we
won
third
place
this
year.
W
W
I'm
really
excited
to
be
here
tonight
to
showcase
some
of
the
work
that
has
happened
across
the
city
and
also
talk
a
bit
about
what
this
award
is
given
for,
and
what
they're,
measuring
and
monitoring
when
we
apply
for
it.
So
I
will
turn
it
over
to
pj
to
talk
a
bit
more
about
those
things.
X
Good
evening,
mayor
council,
the
digital
city
survey
is
conducted
annually
typically
summer
time
and
covers
several
areas
of
the
technology
usage
within
local
government
that
enhances
digital
services
delivery
to
the
public.
These
are
services
that
make
a
positive
impact,
and
that
matter
most
to
the
public's
interactions
with
their
local
governments,
as
sabre
has
previously
stated.
X
Awards
are
categorized
with
population
with
bellevue
falling
within
the
125k
to
249
000
population
and
the
following
areas
were
covered
in
2021's,
digital
survey,
data
management,
analytics
networking
and
security,
digital
innovation,
culture
and
leadership,
application,
development,
user-centric
technology
and
the
providing
of
cost-effective
services.
X
X
X
It
is
now
used
by
18
jurisdictions
that
allows
development
services
to
continue
paperless
permitting
through
the
pandemic.
These
also
includes
technology
partnerships
that
the
transportation
department
is
pursuing
through
vision.
Zero
collaboration
is
key
to
bellevue's
innovation
and
operational
excellence.
These
strong
city
partnerships
are
key
to
bellevue's
success
in
advancing
digital
technology.
Y

The
state
or
neighborhood
story
map
leverages
the
power
of
viral
storytelling
and
provides
a
one-stop
shop
for
residents
to
better
understand
all
aspects
of
their
neighborhood.
The
police
data
dashboard
provides
additional
transparency
to
the
public.
Both
the
state
or
neighborhood
story
map
and
the
police
data
dashboard
have
been
visited
thousands
of
times
since
launch.
We
have
even
more
projects
planned
next
year.
We
work
towards
continuing
to
be
a

leader
in
the
future.
Back
to
you,

W
W
B
V
V
E
Thank
you,
city
manager,
miyaki,
mayor
deputy
mayor
and
council
members.
As
always,
it
is
a
pleasure
to
be
with
you
this
evening.
Thank
you
once
again
for
having
myself
this
year
marks
the
24th
resident
performance
survey
conducted
by
the
city
of
bellevue
tonight.
What
we
have
for
you
is
our
key
six
marquee
indicators
of
quality
of
life,
quality
of
city
services,
value
for
the
tax
dollar
direction.
The
city
is
headed
and
bellevue
is
a
place
to
live.
In
addition,
we
also
have
new
data
to
share
with
you
this
evening
regarding
sense
of
belonging.
E
I
assume
that
moved
forward
for
all
of
you.
If
it
did
not,
please
someone.
Let
me
know
we
had
a
total
of
439
respondents
to
the
survey
via
internet
or
phone
and
as
a
reminder
since
2017
the
survey
has
been
conducted
in
five
languages:
english,
chinese,
korean
russian
and
spanish
and
as
city
manager
miyaki
mentioned.
This
is
information
only
this
evening
with
that,
let's
jump
straight
into
the
the
key
marking
indicators.
So
our
first
marking
indicator.
How
would
you
rate
the
overall
quality
of
life
in
the
city
of
bellevue?
E
We
once
again
had
strong
marks
here.
94
of
our
respondents
said
it
either
exceeds
expectation
or
greatly
exceeds
expectation.
We've
had
strong
marks
for
the
past
five
years
and
actually,
if
you
go
back
further
than
that,
you'd
see
longer
history
than
there,
but
again
strong
marks
for
the
quality
of
services
or
the
quality
of
life
in
bellevue.
E
E
Do
you
feel
you're
getting
your
money's
worth
for
your
city,
tax,
dollar,
76
or
almost
three
out
of
four
folks
are
saying
they
definitely
get
their
money's
worth
or
they're
getting
their
money's
worth
for
their
city
tax
dollar.
These
numbers
are
very
comparable
to
what
we've
seen
historically
and
when
we
look
at
other
cities
across
that
do
similar
type
questions.
Maybe
not
this
exact
question
but
similar
questions
are
our
scores
are
much
higher
across
the
board.
So
again,
the
city
of
bellevue
has
strong
marks
here
direction.
E
The
city
is
headed
76,
which
is
up
a
little
bit
from
2019
and
a
little
bit
from
2020
say
that
we're
strongly
headed
right
in
the
right
direction
and
somewhat
right
in
the
right
direction,
and
even
though
we
do
see
a
little
bit
of
uptick
in
2021,
it's
not
statistically
significant,
but
it
is
nice
to
see
a
76
versus
a
73,
just
in
general
towards
the
bottom
of
the
screen.
E
You
can
see
the
most
common
entries
as
to
why
the
right
direction
and
why
the
wrong
direction,
why
the
right
directions,
city
leadership
and
priorities
and
growth,
strong
economy
and
business
climate
in
a
safe
community
and
improving
infrastructures?
The
numbers
you
see
after
the
end,
where
it
says
n
equals
that's
the
number
of
times.
Those
comments
appeared
in
the
answers
to
the
questions
why
the
wrong
direction,
as
with
all
good
things,
there's
always
sometimes
some
negative
things
as
well.
E
Construction
and
growth
are
at
the
top
of
the
list:
cost
of
living
and
expenses,
city,
government
and
crime.
Again
strong
marks
for
the
city
of
bellevue
bellevue
is
a
place
to
live.
97
of
our
respondents
said
it's
a
good
to
an
excellent
place
to
live
again
it's
slightly
higher
than
previous
years,
but
again,
not
statistically
valid,
and
our
last
marquee
indicator
for
you
this
evening
is
overall.
E
How
would
you
describe
your
neighborhood
as
a
place
to
live
again
high
marks,
95,
good
or
excellent
as
a
neighborhood
place
to
live
so
again,
strong
marks
for
the
city
of
bellevue,
with
that
those
are
top
usual
six
marquee
questions
that
we
bring
you
each
time.
We
do
have
some
new
information
for
you
this
evening.
It
is
the
first
time
we've
done
it
in
the
city
of
bellevue,
as
I
mentioned
in
my
opening
comments.
Therefore,
it
is
baseline
data
and
it's
kind
of
exciting
to
be
able
to
present
to
you
some
new
information.
E
I
can
guarantee
you
since
it's
new
we're
not
going
to
have
answers
to
all
the
questions,
but
it
certainly
is
a
place
for
us
to
be
able
to
lean
in
and
provide
a
nuisance,
a
new
item
here,
it's
called
sense
of
belonging
and
it
composed
of
four
categories.
Does
someone
have
an
emotional
connection
to
the
community?
Are
you
influenced
by
or
do
you
have
influence
over
the
community?
Do
you
find
that
you
have
membership
in
the
community
and
are
your
needs
fulfilled
with
community?
E
I
have
a
slide
for
each
of
those
four
categories
following
this,
but
before
I
head
to
those
four
slides,
the
overarching
factor
that
was
impacted
by
all
four
of
those
categories
was
age,
so
the
older,
the
respondent,
was
to
the
questions
that
I'll
show
you
in
a
minute,
the
overall
greater
sense
of
belonging.
The
person
has
in
fact
we
had
a
statistically
significant
difference
when
comparing
responses
from
those
aged
35
and
under
compared
to
those
35
and
older.
Those
who
are
35
and
older
had
a
much
stronger
sense
of
belonging
to
the
community.
E
So
with
that,
let
me
pop
into
these
four
options:
do
you
have
emotional
connection
to
the
community?
The
questions
are.
The
statements
we
ask
folks
to
rank
0
to
10
are
on
the
left-hand
side
of
the
screen.
People
in
my
community
get
along
with
each
other.
It
is
very
important
to
me
to
live
in
my
community.
I
expect
to
live
in
my
community
a
long
time.
Major
factor
here
is
age
and
you
can
see
the
score
75
percent
some
would
agree
or
strongly
agree.
As
you
look
at
the
collection
of
those
three
questions
influence.
E
E
E
If
you
live
in
a
single
family,
home
versus
multi-family
housing,
single-family
dwellers
seem
to
have
a
higher
connection
to
influence
than
multi-family
housers,
and
if
you
had
the
presence
of
children
in
your
in
your
home,
you
also
had
a
stronger
area
of
where
you
found
influence
and
I
think
some
of
that's
fairly
intuitive,
as
we
think
about
how
we
how
we
engage
in
our
community
at
different
stages
in
life.
So
this
is
the
influence.
E
Do
you
have
membership
in
your
community
questions
we
asked.
Are
I
feel
home
in
my
community,
I
feel
at
home
in
my
community.
I
can
recognize
most
of
the
people
who
live
in
my
community.
Many
of
the
people
living
in
my
community
know
me
again.
We
had
those
same
ones.
You
saw
for
influence
age
if
you're
a
single
family
dweller.
If
you
have
the
presence
of
children,
you
had
higher
marks
and
also
from
a
very
intuitive
level
time
spent
in
the
community.
E
So
if
you've
been
in
the
community
less
than
four
years,
you
had
lesser
a
connection
of
membership
than
if
you've
been
in
the
community
longer
than
four
years.
So
again,
new
information
for
us
to
to
put
our
thinking
caps
on
about
the
last
area
of
the
categories
for
a
sense
of
belonging
is,
are
your
needs
being
fulfilled.
E
I
think
my
community
is
a
good
place
for
me
to
live
people
living
in
my
community,
and
I
want
the
same
things
for
the
area.
People
living
in
my
community
and
I
share
the
same
values
biggest
factor
here
was
age,
as
was
very
similar
to
the
emotional
connection.
Eighty
percent
some
would
agree
or
strongly
agree
in
summary
this
evening.
Overall,
for
our
new
area
of
data
that
we
haven't
had
a
chance
to
look
at
before
sense
of
belonging.
E
It
shows
us
that,
for
the
most
part,
folks
have
a
an
emotional
connection
to
our
community
and
our
needs
are
being
fulfilled.
Excuse
me,
in
the
community
to
in
lesser
extents,
they
have
influence
over
the
community
and,
depending
on
how
long
they've
been
here,
whether
or
not
they
feel
they
have
membership
in
our
community.
E
Like
I
said
it's
a
new
area
of
data
that
we're
still
putting
some
thoughts
into
our
final
report
and
full
data
set
should
be
available
in
january
of
2022,
and
that
will
give
us
another
opportunity
to
dig
deeper
into
this
data
overall,
our
key
marquee
indicators
once
again
from
the
city
of
bellevue,
are
very
strong.
Thank
you
for
your
time
this
evening,.
B
Well,
that's
great
feedback
really
appreciate
it
and
I'm.
I
think
we
all
appreciate
those
new
questions
that
we're
asking
and
look
forward
to
digging
deeper
into
how
we
can
address
some
of
those
issues.
So
thank
you
so
much
tony,
mr
miyake,
is
that
the
end
of
your
report.
V
Yes,
those
are
the
that's
the
end
of
my
manager's
report
mayor.
Thank
you.
B
Thank
you,
okay,
so
under
council
business
at
the
first
meeting
of
next
year
we
will
be
selecting
a
mayor
and
deputy
mayor,
and
so
we
need
to
discuss
the
process
of
that.
Mr
miyaki,
would
you
like
to
introduce
this
topic.
V
A
Option
number
one
is
what's
referred
to
as
simultaneous
voting
and
for
the
past
four
elections
the
council
has
used
this
particular
method
of
voting.
Nominees
are
called
for
and
then
nominees
are
voted
on
simultaneously
via
a
roll
call
vote
or
by
a
ballot
vote.
It's
worth
noting
that
historically,
the
council
has
used
a
paper
ballot
for
voting.
A
A
A
So
if
the
council
elects
this
method,
nominees
are
called
for
and
then
are
voted
on
in
order
of
nomination.
This
method
requires
council
members
to
vote
no
on
a
candidate
until
their
preferred
candidate
is
being
voted
on.
There's
three
alternatives
on
how
the
council
could
take
that
vote.
One
is
a
voice
vote,
saying
I
or
no
a
roll
call
vote,
which
is
like
I
discussed
before,
calling
out
council
members
individually
to
vote,
and
then
the
third
would
be
the
electronic
or
email
ballot.
A
As
soon
as
the
nominee
receives
a
majority
vote,
he
or
she
is
declared
elected
and
no
votes
are
taken
on
the
remaining
candidates.
That
method
would
just
require
a
simple
majority
tonight
to
proceed.
So
at
this
time,
mayor
I'll
turn
it
back
to
you.
That's
high
level
overview
of
the
two
options.
If
you
need
more
detail,
I'm
happy
to
answer
questions,
but
I'd
look
for
council
direction
on
which
method
you
would
like
me
to
facilitate
for
the
january
third
meeting.
B
C
Well,
I've
been
on
the
council
for
a
while
and
we've
been
using.
The
simultaneous
voting
method
for
the
last
eight
years.
Is
that
right,
charmaine?
Yes,
it
is,
and
I
think
it
served
us
really
really
well,
because
no
one
wants
to
vote
no
on
one
of
their
colleagues
in
order
to
vote
yes
for
another.
So
I
support
that
method.
Given
the
virtual
environment.
C
From
my
perspective,
a
roll
call
vote
where
the
person
states
say
john
doe
and
and
jane
rowe
are
both
nominated
when
the
person's
roll
call
is
going,
they
could
say
jane,
doe
or
john
rowe
or
whatever,
and-
and
I
think
that
that
would
be
the
good
way
to
handle
it
rather
than
trying
to
email
or
text
or
chat
in
on
ballots.
So
I
would
support
that
method.
Thanks.
L
Has
happened
sometime
with
jennifer
and
I
that's
what
I
was
going
to
say.
I
agree
holy.
I
think
that's
the
best
process
to
go
by
and
the
quickest
and
most,
I
think,
congenial.
F
Yeah
this
way
in
as
well,
I
thought
that
option
one,
the
simultaneous
voting
has
been
working
well
for
us
even
prior
to
being
on
the
council
so
and
doing
it
by
the
roll
call
vote
seems
to
make
the
most
amount
of
sense
at
this
time,
giving
us
the
given
the
the
virtual
proceedings
here
by
zoom.
So
I
would
be
in
favor
of
sticking
with
option
one.
Thank
you.
Okay,.
F
B
Second,
all
those
in
favor
say
I
I
any
opposed.
Okay
pass
that
passes.
Charmaine
you
want
to
go
on
with
the
the
next
one.
A
Perfect,
thank
you
mayor.
So
the
council
has
a
long-standing
practice
of
designating
a
member
to
act
as
the
temporary
chair
for
that
january
third.
2022
meeting,
essentially
to
open
the
meeting
and
preside
over
the
election
of
the
mayor
once
the
mayor
is
elected.
The
temporary
chair
turns
the
gavel
over
to
the
mayor
and
then
the
election
for
the
deputy
mayor
would
proceed.
A
B
So,
first
of
all
ours
does
anybody
have
any
questions
about
this?
Not
seeing
any
are
there
any
nominations?
Councilmember
stokes.
B
Okay,
all
those
in
favor
say
aye
any
opposed
all
right.
Thank
you.
So
next
on
our
list,
we
have
a
recommendation
for
an
appointment
to
the
human
services
commission
and
deputy
mayor.
Is
the
council
liaison
to
human
services?
Would
you
like
to
recommend
your
nomination
deputy
mayor.
N
F
F
Angela's
diverse
background,
coupled
with
her
experience
serving
on
the
city
of
bellevue's
youth
link
board,
will
make
her
an
excellent
commissioner,
currently
serving
her
second
term
on
the
board
and
first
year
as
the
adult
co-chair
she's,
also
on
the
diversity,
equity
and
inclusion
subcommittee
on
the
youth
link
board
and
is
also
working
on
a
mentorship
program
with
the
most
at
risk
latinx
and
hispanic
children
at
highland
middle
school.
Lastly,
she
recently
joined
the
bellevue
school
district,
ptsa
and
volunteers
for
backpacks
for
kids,
which
helps
deliver
weekend
backpacks
to
kids
throughout
the
bellevue
school
district.
B
Okay,
we'll
take
that
as
a
motion,
any
questions
or
comments.
B
Last
before
we
take
a
break,
is
the
consent
calendar?
Is
there
a
motion
to
approve.
J
B
Yeah,
okay,
I
think
we
got
everybody
but
the
deputy
mayor
who
may
be
lurking
there.
You
go
okay,
so
we
have
a
public
hearing
to
do
right
now.
Mr
miyaki,
would
you
like
to
introduce
this.
Z
V
Is
a
scheduled
public
hearing
necessary
to
extend
the
interim
interim
official
control
under
ordinance
number
6585,
which
was
adopted
in
july
of
july
12th
of
this
year?
This
interim
official
control
is
related
to
the
allowing
allowance
of
permanent
support
of
housing
and
transitional
housing
in
all
land
use.
Districts
for
residential
uses
in
hotel
motels
are
allowed,
as
well
as
it
allows
homeless.
V
Services
uses
in
all
the
same
land
use
districts
joining
us
this
evening
to
provide
a
brief
report
for
the
council
before
opening
up
the
public
hearing
are
mike
brennan
our
director,
as
well
as
trishness
hannah's,
consulting
attorney
and
caleb
miller,
our
senior
planner
all
from
the
development
services
department,
so
that
I'm
going
to
go
ahead
and
hand
it
over
to
the
development
services
staff.
AA
Thank
you,
mr
miyaki
good
evening,
I'm
here
robinson
deputy
mayor
newman
house
and
council
members.
I
thank
you
for
that
introduction.
Mr
miyaki,
the
since
july
staff
have
been
working
with
the
planning,
commission
and
stakeholders
to
develop
the
permanent
regulations,
but
additional
time
is
necessary
to
complete
that
work.
Tonight
we
are
asking
the
council
to
hold
the
public
hearing
and
then
adopt
an
ordinance
that
would
extend
that
in
from
official
control
or
the
ioc
to
allow
that
work
to
be
completed.
AA
So
this
evening,
tris
nathanas
and
kayla
miller
have
a
brief
staff
report
and
then
we'll
ask
the
council
to
hold
the
public
hearing
tristan.
H
Thank
you
mike
good
evening,
mayor
robinson,
deputy
mayor,
new
house
and
council
members.
Next
slide.
Please,
as
mike
noted,
we
are
asking
council
tonight
to
hold
the
public
hearing
on
ordinance
number
6637,
which
will
extend
the
official
control
that
council
had
adopted
back
in
july
and
following
the
public
hearing
to
adopt
this
ordinance
next
slide.
H
So
in
the
past
legislative
session,
just
as
a
reminder
the
state
legislature
did
pass
and
the
governor
signed
into
law
house
bill
1220.,
it
became
effective
on
july
25th.
In
essence,
this
bill
requires
cities
to
allow
permanent,
supportive
housing
and
transitional
housing
in
orlando's
districts,
where
residential
and
hotels
and
hotels
uses
are
allowed
and
emergency
housing
and
emergency
shelter
in
all
land
use
districts
where
hotels
and
hotels
are
allowed.
H
The
ioc
that
council
adopted
on
july
12
was
really
designed
to
quickly
and
narrowly
bring
the
city's
regulations
into
immediate
compliance
with
these
new
state
mandates
and
as
part
of
that
adoption
council,
I'm
sure
recalls
council
did
direct
staff
to
develop
the
permanent
luca,
which
has
been
developed
over
this
past
number
of
months.
We
are
in
the
middle
of
processing
this
luca
with
the
planning
commission,
but
we
need
a
bit
more
time
to
fully
complete
our
effort
with
the
planning
commission.
H
So
with
that
next
slide,
please,
I
am
going
to
turn
the
presentation
over
to
caleb
miller
for.
D
I
Great
thank
you
tristana
and
good
evening,
mayor
deputy
mayor
and
council
members.
So
next
here's
an
overview
of
the
four
types
of
housing
described
under
house
bill
1220,
the
two
on
the
left,
permanent,
supportive
housing
and
transitional
housing
are
both
intended
for
longer
term
occupancy
and
are
typically
paired
with
more
comprehensive
wraparound
services
in
the
case
of
permanent
supportive
housing.
I
These
services
are
meant
for
the
resident
to
maintain
their
tenancy
for
either
an
indefinite
period
of
time
or
just
permanently
permanently,
and
then
transitional
housing,
on
the
other
hand,
is
intended
to
eventually
transition
the
residents
into
a
more
independent
living
arrangement
for
state
law.
This
transition
period
is
up
to
two
years
on.
The
right
are
the
typically
shorter
term
interventions.
I
These
may
either
provide
more
basic
services
addressing
immediate
needs,
but
they
can
also
connect
people
to
more
comprehensive
services
offline
for
emergency
housing.
The
duration
of
stay
can
vary
widely
from
a
few
days
to
a
few
months,
but
it
is
mainly
intended
to
act
as
a
transition
between
homelessness
and
a
more
stable
living
situation,
such
as
those
seen
on
the
left.
I
Emergency
shelter
is
really
short
term,
with
stays.
Typically,
under
24
hours
and
again
have
more
basic
services
such
as
food,
clothing,
hygiene,
etc,
as
we'll
get
into
a
little
bit
more
later,
both
of
the
uses
on
the
right
are
consistent
with
the
existing
definitions
for
homeless
services
uses
in
the
land
use
code,
and
so
that's
how
they've
been
organized
for
the
ioc
and
so
next
are
the
specific
amendments
included
in
the
interim
official
control,
and
these
can
be
arranged
to
two
major
categories.
I
The
first
category
are
the
amendments
to
the
land
use
tables
in
the
code
consistent
with
house
bill
1220,
the
ioc
inserts
a
note
where
residential
or
hotel
and
motel
uses
are
shown
which
states
that
permanent,
supportive
housing
and
transitional
housing
are
both
allowed
in
all
districts
where
those
uses
were
hotels
and
motels
and
residential
uses
are
allowed
subject
to
any
applicable
requirements
and
approvals
for
those
uses.
I
This
affects
the
neighborhood
mixed
use
and
office,
limited
business,
open
space
districts
I'll
just
note
that
no
other
changes
to
homeless
services
uses
regulations
were
included
in
the
ioc.
These
are
still
subject
to
conditional
use,
permit
approval,
as
well
as
other
additional
supplemental
submittal
requirements
and
others
specific
for
that
use.
I
The
other
category
of
amendments
is
related
to
the
definitions
for
homeless
services
uses,
which
I
noted,
the
emergency
housing
and
shelter
definitions
were
both
consistent
with
what
was
under
the
land
use
code
for
homeless
services
uses,
so
the
ioc
just
includes
references
to
those
two
uses
as
they
refer
to
in
the
rcw
and
house
bill.
1220.
I
next
is
just
a
quick
overview
of
the
ioc
and
luca
process.
If
extended
tonight,
the
ioc
will
expire
on
july
12th
of
2022
and
may
be
extended
again
if
necessary,
provided
another
public
hearing
is
held
once
the
permanent
regulations
are
adopted
under
the
luca
process.
Those
will
replace
the
ioc,
and,
finally,
the
planning
commission,
at
their
december
8th
meeting
last
week,
directed
staff
to
bring
the
lucca
to
a
public
hearing
in
front
of
them.
This
will
take
place
in
january
and
following
that,
assuming
no
other
planning
commission
work
is
needed.
I
The
luca
will
advance
to
the
city,
council
and
ebcc
for
their
review.
Afterward
staff
anticipate
this
process
to
be
completed
by
around
april
of
next
year,
but
again,
additional
time
may
be
needed
and
we
have,
until
july
of
2022
for
the
ioc
and
so
to
wrap
it
up.
Staff
are
seeking
council
action
to
hold
the
public
hearing
on
ordinance
number
6637
and
following
the
public
hearing,
adopt
the
ordinance
and
I
will
pass
it
back
to
the
mayor.
B
Okay,
thank
you
very
much,
so
this
is
basically
a
temporary
ordinance
that
will
bring
us
into
compliance
with
state
law
until
we're
able
to
adopt
the
permanent
ordinance
so
we're
going
to
you
know.
Sometimes
we
do
a
public
hearing
and
we
just
leave
it
at
that,
but
tonight
we're
actually
going
to
ask
for
a
vote
on
this
after
the
public
hearing.
So
I
ask
that
we
have
a
motion
to
open
the
public
hearing.
I.
B
A
Mayor
there
are
no
pre-registered
speakers
for
the
public
hearing
this
evening,
so
at
this
time
I
would
ask
if
there
is
anyone
connected
to
this
meeting?
Who
would
like
to
make
a
comment
during
this
public
hearing?
Please
use
the
raised
hand,
function
or
star9
connected
with
a
phone.
B
All
right,
thank
you.
Can
I
have
a
motion
to
close
the
public
hearing,
please
I.
B
All
those
in
favor
say
I
I
any
opposed
okay.
So
if
there
are
any
questions
or
comments,
if
not
we'll
just
move
to
a
vote
to
extend
this,
is
there
a
motion?
Please.
F
B
B
I'm
excited
to
see
the
first
one.
So,
mr
miyaki,
would
you
like
to
introduce
that
first,
one
first,
and
only
one.
V
Sorry
yeah,
I'm
sorry,
I
just
had
a
new
my
computer.
Yes,
thank
you.
As
you
mentioned,
there
is
only
one
item
under
your
study
session
agenda
this
evening,
and
this
is
the
parkour
recommendation
for
the
new
newport
hills
park
and
just
by
way
of
background
in
may
of
this
year,
the
council
provided
supplemental
park,
naming
guidance
to
the
parks
and
community
services
board,
and
since
then
the
board
has
solicited
further
community
feedback
pursuant
to
the
council
direction.
V
So
tonight's
staff
is
seeking
council
direction
regarding
selection
of
the
name
for
the
new
park
in
the
newport
hills,
neighborhood
and
and
how
to
bring
that
back
and
joining
us.
This
evening
are
michael
shihasaki,
the
director,
as
well
as
pam
furman
planning,
a
commun
planning
and
development
manager,
both
from
the
parks
and
community
services
department
and
we're
also
joined
by
dave
hamilton,
the
chair
of
the
parks
and
community
services
board.
With
that,
I'm
going
to
go
ahead
and
turn
it
over
to
you,
michael.
AB
Thank
you,
city
manager,
miyake
good
evening,
mayor
robinson,
deputy
mayor
newman
house
and
members
of
the
city
council,
I'm
michael
shiasaki,
and
tonight
we
return
regarding
a
name
for
the
new
park
in
the
newport
hills
neighborhood,
and
I'm
going
to
ask
pam
fairman
to
pull
up
that
powerpoint.
Thank
you.
Pam.
AB
There
we
go
so
next
slide,
please
thank
you.
So
staff
in
the
park
board
seek
the
city
council's
name
recommendation
for
the
new
park
and
direct
and
direction
for
the
staff
to
return
with
a
resolution
adopting
the
council's
preferred
park
day.
So
next
slide,
please.
AB
So
at
the
meeting
tonight
we'll
provide
a
bit
of
background
on
the
city's
newest
park
in
the
newport
hills,
neighborhood
and
the
naming
process.
AB
We
will
review
the
park,
naming
policy
and
the
more
recent
council
guidance
on
names,
for
this
part
then
provide
the
updated
community
outreach
and
name
preferences,
as
well
as
the
park
board's
name
recommendation
and
then
conclude
with
the
council's
discussion.
Next
slide,
please
and
again,
so
the
planning
process
for
the
new
park
began
in
may
of
2019
and
concluded
eight
months
later,
with
a
parks
and
community
services
board
recommendation
and
a
council-supported
preferred
design
for
the
13-acre
park.
AB
AB
203
survey
responses
were
received
and
they
identified
several
preferred
names.
Those
names
were:
newport
hills,
neighborhood
park,
ringdahl
park,
newport
hills,
sunset
park
and
newport
woods
park
after
thorough
deliberation.
The
parks
and
community
services
board
passed
a
motion
to
recommend
the
name
board,
killed,
ringdahl
neighborhood
park
to
the
city,
council
and
I'll
return
to
that
name
in
just
a
moment.
AB
So
next,
just
a
quick
refresher
on
the
park's
naming
resolution
number
8229
and
that
is
in
your
council
packet.
It.
It
sets
forth
the
policy
and
procedures
for
naming
public
parks
and
recreation
facilities.
AB
So
at
the
council's
may
3rd
meeting
the
council
opted
to
not
adopt
the
park
board's,
recommended
name
for
the
new
park
and
provided
supplemental
park,
naming
guidance.
The
council
directed
the
park
board
to
reconsider
the
park
name
recommendation
and
this
time
directed
that
the
park
not
be
named
after
a
person
not
duplicate
existing
park.
Names
include
newport
or
newport.
Hills
include
glenn
or
meadow,
in
name
in
a
name
option
and
that
the
preferences
be
informed
by
the
newport
hills.
Neighborhood.
AC
Thank
you
good
evening,
mayor
robinson
and
deputy
mayor,
newinghouse
and
council
members.
It's
a
pleasure
to
be
with
you
all
right.
We
will
move
to
the
next
slide
please.
After
our
june,
8th
parks
and
community
services
board
meeting
the
board
moved
forward
with
the
next
steps
of
the
community
outreach
process
and
selected
the
five
name
options
to
move
forward
based
on
council's
updated
naming
guidance
and
the
community's
preferences.
AC
AC
Just
a
quick
aside
here
too,
regarding
the
outreach
effort,
parks,
department,
director,
michael
shiosaki
and
planning
development
manager,
pam
fairman
and
the
rest
of
their
team
really
did
an
outstanding
job
of
making
sure
that
all
community
voices
were
heard
and
next
slide.
Please
so
one
survey
per
household
was
sent
in
the
newport
hills
neighborhood
and
we
had
a
tremendous
community
response
that
was
indicative
of
the
high
level
of
engagement
and
enthusiasm
for
the
park.
AC
The
survey
respondents
were
allowed
to
select
one
preferred
name
and
community
feedback
for
the
new
neighborhood
park,
name
in
order
of
preference
were
newport
hills,
woodlawn
park
at
29
percent,
meadow
at
newport
hills
park
at
24
percent,
newport
hills,
traffic,
happy
trails
park
at
22
percent,
newport
glenn
neighborhood
park
at
16
and
forest
haven
at
newport
hills
park
at
nine
percent.
AC
B
Thank
you,
chair
hamilton,
thank
you
for
joining
us
here
tonight
and
thank
you
and
the
parks
board
for
doing
that
extra
work.
For
us.
We
appreciate
it.
I'm
going
to
start
off
our
discussion
with
council
members
on
because
she's,
the
liaison
for
the
parks
and
community
services
board
council.
AD
AD
And
so
I'm
happy
that
the
the
community's
preferred
name
is
also
the
the
name
that
the
parks
board
also
like,
which
is
the
newport
hills
woodlawn
park
and
with
the
construction
underway.
I
think
it's
an
exciting
to
have
a
name
picked
out.
It's
almost
like
you
know:
you're
gonna
have
a
new
baby,
and
do
we
have
a
new
name
before
its
birth.
AD
So
it's
an
exciting
time
that
we're
gonna
have
this
new
park
complete
and
it's
gonna
have
its
new
name
and
it'll,
be
an
amazing
facility
for
the
community
that
hasn't
had
a
new
park
up
there
for
a
number
of
years.
So
thank
you
great.
B
Any
comments
or
or
questions
councilmember
barksdale.
I
G
I
would
like
to
also
add,
on
the
a
compliment
to
the
staff
and
to
the
parks
board,
you
can
tell
by
the
number
of
people
who
increase
almost
double
actually
from
200,
something
to
390.
G
B
All
right
I'll
say
that
if
I
did
my
math
right
that
there
were
98
people
who
wanted
the
newport,
woodlawn
hills,
new
woodlawn
park
and
81
who
chose
the
second
one,
so
you
know
that's
a
pretty
significant
difference,
I'm
all
for
the
top
choice,
any
other
comments
or
questions.
If
not
I'll,
take
a
motion
from
deputy
mayor,
oh
councilmember,
stokes
yeah.
I.
L
Just
wanted
to
wanted
to
say,
as
a
former
member
of
the
parks
board
and
along
with
mayor
robinson,
this
is
continuation
of
the
great
work
it
does
and
I'm
really
pleased
with
the
outcome.
I
think
it's
the
most
melodious
and
and
kind
of
fits
the
newport
hills
area.
So
it's
great
thank
you.
AE
F
B
V
So
good
evening,
mayor
robinson
and
council
members,
we
have
two
major
topics
under
the
other
ordinances
and
resolutions
this
evening
on,
one
is
the
comprehensive
plan
amendments
and
the
second
is
the
east
main
land
use
coast,
land
use
code,
amendment
starting
off
with
items
12
a
through
12
f.
They
represent
the
five
comprehensive
plan,
amendments
which
council
discussed
in
october
as
well
as
in
november,
and
gave
direction
to
staff
to
return
for
a
final
adoption.
V
This
evening,
at
the
november
meeting,
a
series
of
amendments
were
raised
with
respect
to
the
neighborhood
plans
and,
more
recently
there
has
been
some
discussion
regarding
a
possible
amendment
to
the
transportation
comp
plan
amendment
so
joining
us.
This
evening,
our
emil
king
assistant,
director,
tara
johnson,
comprehensive
planning
manager
and
elizabeth
duret
senior
planner
to
present
the
five
comprehensive
plan
ordinances
for
your
consideration,
as
well
as
any
proposed
amendments
with
that,
I'm
going
to
go
ahead
and
turn
over
to
emile
king
to
kick
off
the
presentation.
B
Mr
miyake,
I'm
going
to
just
say
something
in
advance
of
this.
This
is
gonna,
as
we
start
out
seem
confusing,
but
we're
gonna
stop
and
look
at
exactly
what
we're
voting
on.
Take
a
vote
move
on
to
the
next
one.
So
just
hang
in
there
we'll
get
through
this.
It
will
get
more
clear
as
we
go
through.
Okay,
go
ahead,
emil.
AF
This
year's
batch
of
amendments
are
noteworthy
and
really
show
the
range
of
issues
housed
in
the
comprehensive
plan.
They
include
a
site-specific
amendment
to
property
on
northeast
8th
street
in
wilberton
for
affordable
housing,
multimodal
concurrency
policies
that
speak
to
mobility
options
in
the
city
and
the
first
two
plans
to
come
out
of
the
neighborhood
area
planning
program.
AF
Z
Thank
you
emil
good
evening,
mia
robinson
deputy
me
and
your
in-house
council
members.
So
we
have
a
number
of
staff
here
that
are
going
to
be
part
of
the
presentation,
so
we're
going
to
tag
team
a
little
bit
but
as
both
the
mayor
and
emil
have
indicated
we're
going
to
pause
through
the
presentation
after
each
proposed
amendment
and
wait
for
council
questions
and
then
following
that
council
action.
Z
So
a
little
bit
of
an
overview.
As
you
know,
we
came
before
city
council
earlier
this
year,
first
to
establish
the
2021
work
program
and
then,
following
that,
moving
forward
with
the
final
review
process
for
both
city-initiated
amendments
and
then
the
one
privately
initiated
amendment
per
our
comprehensive
plan.
There's
certain
final
review
criteria
that
the
planning
commission
reviews
each
of
the
amendments
against
and
we
were.
We
made
that
presentation
with
a
planning
commission
chair
both
in
october
and
november
with
city
council.
Z
So
you
heard
directly
from
planning
commission
what
their
deliberations
and
discussions
entailed
this
evening
where,
before
you
for
and
requesting
a
council,
take
final
action
on
five
separate
ordinances
which
I'll
be
walking
through
shortly,
as
well
as
one
general
ordinance
which
adopts
the
2021
annual
comprehensive
plan
amendment.
So
that's
just
a
little
bit
about
our
structure
for
this
evening.
Z
So,
as
I
said,
we
have
five
amendments
that
are
part
of
the
2021
comprehensive
plan,
amendment
work
program,
we're
going
to
walk
through
each
one,
sequentially
and,
as
we
said
earlier,
pause
for
council
questions
and
action.
The
first
first
amendment
is
the
privately
initiated
amendment,
which
you
heard
some
public
testimony
about
dash
glendale
and
evergreen
court.
It
went
through
our
two-step
process,
a
threshold
review
earlier
this
year
and
then
final
review.
Z
It's
a
map
amendment
on
two
parcels
that
approximate
seven
and
a
half
acres.
The
proposal
is
to
go
from
multi-family
medium
to
neighborhood,
mixed
use,
with
the
intent
of
accommodating
additional
density
on-site
to
provide
for
affordable
housing.
Z
The
rest
of
the
four
amendments
that
are
before
council
tonight
are
all
city
initiated
amendments.
We
have
the
two
transportation
related
amendments,
the
first
of
wish,
which
proposes
to
repeal
the
ctpl
or
comprehensive
transportation
project
list
from
the
comprehensive
plan
to
provide
for
more
of
a
streamlined
process.
Z
The
next
transportation
amendment
amends
the
transportation
element
of
the
comprehensive
plan
and
adds
policies
in
support
of
multimodal
concurrency
council
spent
some
time
in
october,
discussing
policy
language
surrounding
these
amendments
and
then
the
last
two
amendments
are
in
support
of
adopting
neighborhood
area
plans
for
northeast
and
northwest
bellevue.
Z
Z
So
with
that
no
walk
through
the
first
amendment,
which
is,
of
course,
the
privately
initiated
amendment
and
to
provide
some
context
for
where
it's
located.
These
are
the
two
subject:
parcels
that
are
part
of
the
land
use.
Designation
change
are
requested,
change
to
go
from
multi-family,
medium
to
neighborhood,
mixed
use,
they're
located
in
the
wilburton
northeast,
8th
street,
sub-area
and
and
we're
part
of
this
year's
process.
Z
So
with
that,
I'm
going
to
pause
and
see
if
council
has
any
questions
in
advance
of
action
on
ordnance,
6631,
okay,.
B
G
AG
Z
Now
I'm
going
to
turn
things
over
to
transportation
staff
to
walk
us
through
the
next
amendment.
AH
AH
The
proposal
before
you
tonight
is
to
repeal
the
comprehensive
transportation
project
list
from
the
comprehensive
plan
in
in
the
2015
update
of
the
major
comprehensive
plan
that
the
city
council
created
the
comprehensive
transportation
list
on
recommendation
from
the
transportation
commission
and
that
that
list
consolidated
all
of
the
separate
projects
that
were
scattered
throughout
the
comprehensive
plan
in
sub-area
plans
and
separate
modal
plans.
The
comprehensive
plan
we
found
out
since
that
time
to
to
amend
it
takes
an
amendment
to
the
comprehensive
plan.
AH
Whether
a
new
policy
or
a
new
project
is
to
be
added
or
a
project
that
is
completed
is
taken
off
the
list.
So
staff
recommends
repealing
the
comprehensive
transportation
plan
in
this
ordinance
and
instead
using
the
transportation
improvement
program
to
be
the
single
inventory
of
planned
transportation
projects
for
the
city.
AH
B
Sorry
just
a
minute.
While
I
change
my
screen
here,
are
there
any
comments
or
questions?
I
see
council
members
on
yeah
thank.
AD
L
G
Yeah
I
yes.
B
AH
Thank
you
mayor
with
kevin
again.
The
the
proposal
before
you
tonight
is
a
recommendation
from
both
the
planning
commission
and
the
transportation
commission
with
regard
to
policies
and
the
comprehensive
plan
in
the
transportation
element
that
specifically
express
the
intent
to
move
towards
a
multimodal
approach
to
concurrency
there.
AH
There
are
a
number
of
policies
in
the
transportation
element
that
currently
describe
the
city's
approach
to
concurrency,
which
is
exclusively
a
vehicle-only
approach
to
discussing
mobility
within
the
city.
The
transportation
commission
spent
many
months
looking
at
the
existing
policies,
made
a
recommendation
to
repeal
some
of
those
that
were
outdated
to
amend
the
existing
policy
language
to
more
fully
embrace
the
notion
of
multimodal
concurrency,
the
commission
recommended
to
add
one
goal
and
two
new
policies
and
to
to
accompany
that
policy.
AH
Work
explanatory
narrative
is,
is
amended
in
the
comprehensive
plan
as
well
and
in
in
october
25th.
When
staff
brought
these
policy
recommendations
to
the
council,
the
council
had
a
discussion
about
one
particular
policy
tr2,
which
was
the
subject
of
a
couple
public
comments.
Earlier
in
the
evening,
the
council
recommended,
on
a
vote
of
seven
to
zero
for
the
policy
tr-2
to
be
expressed,
as
you
see
on
your
screen
today,
to
improve
the
multimodal
transportation
system
and
strive
to
manage
congestion
and
improve
the
quality
of
the
travel
experience
for
all
users
and
tara.
B
Okay,
thank
you
very
much.
Are
there
any
comments
or
questions
deputy
mayor.
F
All
right,
thank
you,
mayor
yeah.
After
hearing
from
different
community
members,
businesses
et
cetera,
I
wanted
to
bring
back
up
the
the
issue
of
the
change
to
the
tr2
language.
For
my
colleagues
so
first,
my
understanding
is
that
retaining
the
existing
language
strive
to
reduce
congestion
is
consistent
with
the
proposed
multimodal
level
of
service,
the
the
mmlos
and
also
with
the
transportation
information
plans
and
the
other
proposed
comprehensive
language
changes.
F
Additionally,
you
know
the
council's
biannual
budget
surveys.
I
think
this
was
mentioned
previously
as
well
by
maybe
one
of
our
speakers
during
oral
communications
traffic
trips
from
new
development
congestion
have
consistently
been
by
our
residents
as
the
biggest
concerns
voice
to
this
council,
especially
during
the
last
several
budget
surveys.
F
Thirdly,
the
neighborhood
safety
connectivity
and
congestion
libby,
the
you
know:
the
voters
approved
that
property
tax
levy
and
back
in
2016
to
sell
bonds
to
construct
impart,
but
in
large
part
congestion
to
relief
projects,
congestion
relief
projects
over
the
next
20
years
and
then
also
mentioned
by
one
of
our
speakers
this
evening
was
it
was
a
tiffy
alone.
I
won't
go
and
belabor
that,
but
again
projects
that
would
help
reduce
congestion
and
then,
lastly,
you
know
the
development
impact
fees.
F
You
know
the
state
growth
management
act
requires
that
bellevue
have
adequate
capacity
in
the
city's
transportation
system
to
accommodate
growth
in
accordance
with
bellevue's
concurrency
standard,
so
the
city
has
required
and
received
significant
revenue
from
impact
fees
specifically
to
reduce
congestion
from
new
development.
F
So,
lastly,
this
this
this
type
of
this
type
of
language,
the
the
manage
you
know
it's
it's
a
small
thing,
but
it's
a
big
thing-
and
I
think
someone
mentioned
before
that-
maybe
a
former
commissioner
on
the
transportation
committee
talked
about
you,
know
language
matters
and
and
in
addition
to
that,
it
just
doesn't
feel
like
like
bellevue.
You
know.
I
think
this
this
council
is
known,
for
you
know,
going
big
and
tackling
big
problems,
and
you
know
I.
F
I
would
never,
as
a
council
expect
that
we'd
ever
suggest
language
that
stated
that
we're
going
to
you
know
manage
greenhouse
gases,
gas
emissions.
No,
we
want
to
reduce
them.
We
would
never
suggest
language.
That
said,
we
want
to
manage
affordable
housing.
No,
we
want
to
increase
the
number
of
affordable
housing
units
in
our
community,
so
I
would
argue
that
we
keep
that
aspirational
language
that
we
aspire
to
reduce
congestion
and
that
we
that
we
continue
to
seek
that
in
in
our
city.
F
So,
look
forward
to
hearing
my
my
colleagues,
thoughts
and
comments
on
that.
L
We
can
argue
over
what
words
mean.
I
do
appreciate
the
recognition,
which
has
not
always
been
there,
that
congestion
is
something
that
can
be
addressed
by
multimodal
and
we're
getting
away
from
the
focus,
only
on
building
more
roads,
more
streets,
exits
and
entrances,
and
all
that.
So
that's
that's
a
big
step
forward,
and
that
is
going
bigger.
I
don't,
I
think
manage
is
also
a
very
important
thing.
We
we
always.
We
want
good
management.
We
appreciate
management.
L
In
fact,
a
lot
of
us
are
in
management,
and
I
don't
think
we
you
know,
pull
back
at
that
word
as
much
as
as
is
being
said
here,
and
I
just
I
I
think
we're
getting
lost
in
in
this.
I
would
add
some
language
in
terms
of
to
aggressively
plan,
manage
and
expand
transportation
investments
to
reduce
a
congestion
in
a
multi-modal
and
comprehensive
manner.
I
think
that
says
it.
In
fact,
I
would
offer
that
as
a
as
an
amendment.
Okay,.
B
I,
like
that
council
members
on
followed
by
councilmember
lee.
AD
Yes,
thank
you
mayor.
You
know
I
was
reading
the
packet
and
I
believe
that,
actually
earlier
in
the
packet
on
page
four,
we
have
amendments
to
them
for
the
multimodal
concurrency
policy
that
I
believe
already
addresses
what
we're
talking
about
so
under
mobility
options.
In
the
second
sentence,
words
were
added
that
talks
about
will
address
vehicle
congestion,
so
the
full
sentence
says
transportation
system
investments
will
address
vehicle
congestion
and
will
build
projects
for
all
mode
types
that
will
incorporate
design
for
safety,
accessibility,
connectivity
and
preservation
of
neighborhood
character.
AD
So
I
would
just
say
that
I
don't
believe
any
other
changes
are
needed
because
both
the
managed
congestion
in
the
tr-2,
as
well
as
this
sentence
in
mobility
options
where
will
address
vehicle
congestion,
is
actually
one
of
the
words
that
are
added
in
in
this
section.
So,
okay,
that's
my
recommendation.
G
Thank
you.
I
don't
want
to
repeat
everything
deputy
mayor
has
said,
but
I
just
want
to
bring
some
my
own
experience.
You
know
in
transportation,
I
started
trust.
Medicine
commission
became
council
members,
I've
always
been
interested
involved
with
it,
and
I've
been
liaison
to
the
commission
and
I
knew
the
people
the
members
have
come
through
to
commission
us
and
I
believe
the
staff
as
well,
you
know
historically,
and
I
think
we
all
recognize
transportation
condition
is
what
we
are
always
concerned
about.
G
We
want
to
address
and
which
is
the
solution
we
want
to
come
up
with.
We
want
to
reduce
it,
you
know,
let's
be
focused
less
language.
Words
means
a
lot.
You
know,
I'm
no
lawyer,
but
I
know
the
lawyers
believe
that
is
very
important,
especially
we
have
no
confusion.
G
You
know,
I
appreciate
what
councilmember
zhang
was
talking
about
and
if
it's
confusion,
let's
be
clear,
you
know,
because
we
are
making
policies
for
the
long
term,
and
we
heard
a
lot
about
you
know
the
former
commission
members
and
so
on
and
other
transportation
interest
groups
and
experts,
and
why
not
make
it
clear
and
it
doesn't
hurt
it.
I
think
we
heard
absolutely
we
want
it
to
be
more
efficient,
how
we
do
it,
that's
why
we
adopted
the
previous
ordinance.
G
You
know
make
it
make
it
straightforward,
don't
get
all
confused,
and
so
this
one
another
thing
is:
we
all
have
to
be
looking
for
funding
from
elsewhere.
We
know
the
federal
government
is
coming
up
with
lots
of
money
for
infrastructure
and
if
we
are
not
clear
ourselves,
if
we
have
confusions,
people
are
going
to
know
what
we're
looking
at.
You
know
we
don't
have
time
to
explain.
We
got
to
be
able
to
be
clear
straight
to
the
point,
so
I
don't
see
any
harm
in
saying
reduced
conditions.
G
That's
what
you
mean
say
it,
I'm
glad
that
there's
other
places
that
cover,
we
believe,
that's
the
case.
So
let's
say
we
want
to
use
multimodal
methods
to
reduce
congestion,
because
but
the
reduction
the
word's
got
to
be
there.
Okay.
So
I
before
that-
and
I
strongly
think
that
there's
no
downside,
except
just
for
clarification
from
voicing
articulating
what
we
believe
thank
you.
C
So
you
know
this
is
a
tough
one,
because
I
think
that,
no
matter
what
this
says
we're
going
to
keep
implementing
the
neighborhood
transportation
levy,
which
has
a
congestion
reduction,
we're
going
to
keep
spending
impact
fees
on
expanded
capacity,
because
legally
we're
required
to
do
so.
We
can't
just
we
have
to
spend
them
on
expanding
capacity
and
we're
going
to
continue
to
try
to
serve
the
growth
that
we
know
is
coming
faster
than
we
ever
expected
by
making
our
transportation
system
get
more
throughput,
be
more
efficient
and
work
better
for
all
users.
C
So,
but
I
I'm
supportive
of
of
doing
the
reduce
because
congestion
isn't
just
about
sovs
it's
about
the
bus,
getting
stuck
in
the
road
in
stuck
in
the
traffic.
It's
about
people
not
being
able
to
cross
the
street
because
of
what's
happening
on
the
street.
It's
about
bikes,
maybe
not
having
places
to
go
as
more
and
more
bike
commuters
come
to
downtown.
C
So
I
know
we're
gonna.
All
we're
gonna
do
all
this
and
I
think
that
aspirational
is
good,
and
so
I
would
support
making
that
modest
change.
Also,
when
I
sometimes
when
I
come
down
to
these
hard
decisions,
where
you
know
the
language,
the
language
may
or
may
not
really
matter,
but
it
matters
so
much
to
some
people.
C
I
think
about
what
the
advisors
aka
our
boards
and
commissions
who
grappled
with
this
have
said,
and
the
transportation
commission
was
very
much
on
the
fence
about
this
planning
commission
supported
putting
the
reduced
congestion
back
in
there,
and
so,
while
I'm
I'm
balancing
it,
knowing
that
we're
going
to
continue
to
work
on
getting
more
throughput
and
getting
more
congestion,
the
transport
or
the
planning
commission
recommended
that
we
put
it
in
there.
C
You
know
if
in
doubt,
I'm
going
to
try
to
swing
with
what
we've
had
public
comment
about
and
what
our
boards
and
commissions
have
said.
So
I'm
supportive
if
deputy
mayor,
makes
a
motion
to
change
that
word.
I
will
vote
yes.
Thank
you.
B
Did
you
want
to
comment
on
councilmember
stokes.
C
L
L
C
That
would
be
great
what
we're
achieving
yeah.
I
would
be
supportive
of
that,
especially
if
we
continue
to
have
and
improve
the
quality
of
travel
experience
for
all
users
at
the
end,
yeah
that
seems
to
capture
it.
I
think
that
that
encounters
what
deputy
mayor
is
saying
captures
what
you're
saying
pushes
them
together.
You
get
a
strong
say
it
again,
council.
L
L
And
expand
transportation
investments
to
reduce
congestion
and
expand
opportunities
in
a
multi-tool
multi-modal
and
comprehensive
manner.
And
what
did
you
say.
L
T
B
AE
B
I
All
right,
thank
you,
mayor
wow,
that's
a
mouthful.
I
guess
I
would,
I
would
say
a
question
that
a
concern
that
I
have
with
having
reduced
congestion
is
from
a
measure
perspective.
It
really
focuses
or
indexes
staff
on
reducing
congestion
instead
of
really
focusing
on
multimodal
transportation,
and
so
I'm
gonna
say
something
that
that
you
know,
I
think
people
having
options.
I
That's
not
full,
I'm
not
I,
I
would
maybe
suggest
simplifying
it,
but
I
guess
I'm
saying
I
I
guess
I
don't
know
what
reduced
congestion
means
in
this
context.
I,
if
that
makes
sense
sorry.
B
I
I
would
like
to
ask
staff
about
that
versus
keeping
it
the
impact
of
that
versus
keeping
it
as
it
is.
AI
AI
The
multimodal
concurrency
is
going
to
come
back
to
you
as
an
ordinance
and
you'll
be
able
to
to
act
on
it.
Then,
along
with
the
mobility
implementation
plan,
and
if
you
use
the
word
congestion
or
I
mean
reducing
congestion
or
managing
it,
it
really
doesn't
make
a
difference
on
the
ground,
because
what
will
actually
implement
the
ordinances
or
implement
the
policies
are
the
ordinances
that
are
going
to
be
forthcoming
in
the
mobility
implementation
plan
as
well,
which
will
be
seeing
both
of
those
next
year.
AI
You
know
it's
aspirational
and
it
it's
fine,
it
would
work
it.
Wouldn't
it
wouldn't
result
in
any
changes
for
the
ordinances
moving
forward
and
we
did
check
with
the
city
attorney's
office
as
well,
just
with
regard
to
the
word
reduce
and
it
wouldn't
make
that
difference.
B
Okay,
well
I'll
I'll,
take
a
turn
here,
commenting
and
then
we'll
go
back
around
I'm.
I
like
council
member
stoke's
proposal.
I
think
it
strikes
a
balance,
I'm
very
concerned
about
losing
a
primary
focus
of
the
transportation
levy
that
we
propose
to
taxpayers.
So
I
think
we
need
to
keep
reducing
congestion
in
there.
B
I
think
you
know
it
is
hard
to
manage
with
an
increasing
population,
but
when
I
look
at
our
neighborhoods
and
I
see
when
we
don't
manage
transportation,
how
the
cut
through
traffic
increases
and
causes
congestion
in
small
streets
that
just
can't
aren't
designed
to
handle
that
much
traffic,
I
do
think
we
need
to
reduce
congestion
in
certain
areas
and
manage
it
in
others.
So
I
think
councilmember
stokes
proposal
is
hits
it
right
right
for
me.
So
I
I
would
like
to
support
that
deputy
mayor.
F
Thank
you
yeah.
I
was
gonna
echo
your
comments
and
I'm
happy
to
support
councilmember
stokes
amendment
as
well.
G
I
do
I'm
a
hand
up
for
quite
a
while
now
yeah
and
I'm
no
lawyer,
but
I've
been
working
with
a
lot
of
lawyers
as
a
council
member
and
still
surrounded
by
quite
a
few.
Why
don't
we
write
get
right
to
it.
AB
G
Think
the
council
member
stokes
had
a
good
good
good
proposal.
Let's
get
right
to
it,
don't
need
to
say
manage
or
this
those
and
that
just
right
get
down
to
it,
reduce
congestion
through
multimodal
system,
including
everything
you
want
the
name.
You
know
that
would
that
would
give
everybody
fair,
equal
chance
and
get
to
the
point.
G
Yeah,
don't
even
manage
to
need
to
do
this
and
that
the
question
we
want
to
do
something
we
do
whatever
we
want
to
what
we
can.
The
staff
said
they
would
do
the
what
they
have
to
do.
B
Here's
what
I'm
going
to
ask
I'm
going
to
ask
that
since
council
member
stokes
put
his
his
amendment
out
there,
that
we
take
a
vote
and
if
we
have
a
majority
support
of
it,
we'll
we'll
move
forward
with
adopting
the
ordinance
with
that
change
on
it.
And
if
we
don't,
then
we'll
go
back
to
discussion
to
find
out
how
we
can
agree
on
this.
So
I
will
read
it
up.
F
G
I
I
would,
I
would
propose
amendment
friendly,
I'm
gonna.
AG
A
I
am
wondering
if
you
would
like
to
put
the
main
motion
on
the
table.
First.
B
I
didn't
really
want
to
do
an
informal
vote
in
this
conversation
and
then
okay
put
the
amended
ordinance
on
the
on
the
table.
If
that's,
okay,
okay,
so
all
those
in
favor
of
council
member
stoke's
proposal
say
I
I
I
any
opposed.
B
Okay,
so
I
think
we
have
a
majority
of
council
members
who
are
comfortable
with
council
member
stoke's
proposal,
which
I've
read
many
times,
and
so
now
we
have
a
motion
before
us
to
adopt
ordinance
6633
with
this
proposed
amendment
in
it
or.
G
G
Yeah
here
you
go,
listen
to
me
will
propose
my
amendment
identical
to
what
council
member
stoke
proposes.
He
just
passed
instead
of
saying
all
that
manage
and
do
the
past
aggressively
just
say,
reduce
congestion,
following
with
all
the
things
that
you
just
said,
you
know
when
you,
when
you
want
to
reduce
you,
got
to
do
everything
you.
You
only
include
a
few
things.
You
know
aggressive
if
you
want
to
do
something
real
you're
not
going
to
be.
G
B
Okay,
there's
no
second,
we've
already
voted
to
go
with
council
member
stokes,
so
I'm
afraid
you're
out
voted
on
this
one.
F
B
K
Good
evening,
everyone,
but
we're
going
to
move
on
to
the
neighborhood
area
planning.
Next,
as
you
know,
there
are
two
plans
associated
with
this
section,
and
so
we
will
take
one
after
the
other,
but
before
we
move
on
to
those,
we
wanted
to
just
kind
of
recap,
a
little
bit
of
what
you
discussed
at
the
november
22nd
meeting
and
then
dive
right
into
the
individual
plans,
and
so
just
as
a
reminder.
K
These
two
plans
are
part
of
volume,
2
of
the
comprehensive
plan
and
they
are
part
of
a
new
program
to
update
the
the
neighborhood
plans,
and
so
these
are
the
first
two
in
that
process
and
they
will
go
on
pause
until
after
the
periodic
update
of
the
comprehensive
plan
after
this,
and
these
plans
are
really
the
foundational
policy
documents
for
the
individual
neighborhoods.
They
capture
the
neighborhood
goals
and
they
have
policies
that
really
influence
how
neighborhoods
change
over
time
and
they're
used
to
guide
other
plans
and
capital
spending
regulations
codes.
K
K
They
also
do
not
include
land
use
map
changes
as
part
of
this
effort,
though
the
land
use
maps
do
reside
within
these
plans
and
so
just
to
clarify
some
of
the
attachments
include
those
land
use
maps,
but
there
are
no
changes
to
the
actual
uses,
but
the
boundaries
have
been
updated
for
the
northeast
bellevue
area
to
reflect
the
updates
to
neighborhood
areas
that
were
found
in
the
2015
comp
plan.
So
those
are
just
boundary
changes.
No
land
use
changes
just
to
clarify
that.
So
on
that
note,
why
don't
we
move
on
to
northeast
bellevue?
K
And
so
this
is
ordinance
number
6634
and
you
can
see
on.
The
left
is
an
image
of
the
cover
of
the
proposed
plan,
which
was
attached
to
the
ordinance
number,
and
this
is
the
plan
that
was
recommended
by
the
planning,
commission
and
reviewed
on
november
22nd
by
council,
and
you
can
see
on.
K
The
right
of
this
slide
is
a
series
of
five
sets
of
amendments
that
were
brought
up
in
conversation
on
november
22nd,
but
these
have
not
yet
been
voted
on,
and
so,
as
part
of
today's
discussion,
we
can
take
each
of
these
in
turn.
If
council
decides
to
bring
up
these
amendments
after
bringing
up
the
the
motion
to
take
on
this
ordinance-
and
so
I'm
going
to
just
do
a
quick
overview
of
each
of
these,
and
then
we
do
have
a
separate
slide
for
each
amendment.
K
K
The
third
set
of
amendments
deals
with
the
attached
accessory
dwelling
units,
or
that
is,
and
for
this
one,
this
one's
a
little
bit
more
complicated,
because
there
were
actually
two
separate
amendments
that
were
discussed
on
the
22nd
and
so
staff
have
kind
of
compiled
both
of
those,
and
you
cannot
adopt
both
of
them
because
they
they
sort
of
contradict
one
another,
and
so
it
would
be
one
or
the
other
or
neither,
and
so
we'll
walk
through
what
those
look
like
specifically.
K
It's
really
just
a
matter
of
how
council
would
like
it
to
be
written
into
the
policies
themselves,
and
we
can
go
into
more
detail
on
those
when
you
see
the
actual
language,
but
the
second
one
in
particular
adds
a
new
policy
that
is
similar
to
the
one
in
the
northwest
plan.
That
really
has
a
broader
statement
about
having
a
mix
of
housing
typologies,
and
so
the
idea
that
was
discussed
on
the
22nd,
for
that
was
that
you
know
uses
like
the
adus
are
kind
of
included
in
that
mix
of
housing.
K
Typologies
implicitly,
so,
therefore,
do
not
need
to
be
brought
out
in
a
separate
amendment.
So
that's
the
most
complicated
of
these
in
item
number
three,
the
last
two.
We
can
go
through
pretty
quickly
as
well
here
so
item
number
four.
It
was
an
amendment
that
was
brought
forward
to
bring
three
policies
that
were
in
the
northwest
plan
that
address
aging
in
place
within
your
neighborhood
into
this
plan,
and
so
those
are
also
on
that
side.
K
So
with
that
I
can
hand
it
back
over
to
the
mayor.
We
for
this
item
would
need
to
take
on
an
initial
motion
for
the
ordinance
and
then
each
of
these
amendments
would
be
taken
on
in
turn.
So
thank
you
right.
B
Okay,
so
we
have
a
the
this
we're
going
to
go
to
each
one.
Excuse
me
there's
five,
so
is
there
a
motion
to
adopt
ordinance,
6634.
F
Certainly
mayor
there
is,
let
me
just
pull
that
up
664.,
I
moved
to
adopt
ordinance
6634,
adopting
the
northeast
bellevue
neighborhood
area
plan
comprehensive
plan
amendment
pursuant
to
the
growth
management
act.
Second,.
B
Okay,
so
we're
going
to
discuss
each
amendment
one
by
one.
I
don't
anticipate
discussion
on
any
except
the
third
one,
because
we
already
kind
of
landed
on
these
other
four,
but
we'll
look
at
them
again
so
and
vote
on
them.
So
the
first
one
I
think
is
on
the
next
slide.
B
Okay,
just
a
minute
please
so
here
here
is
the
first
amendment
and
you
can
see
what's
been
added
to
it,
yeah,
so
we're
gonna
councilmember
lee.
Are
you
asking
about
amendment
one
in
particular.
AE
AE
G
G
G
B
L
AE
B
A
F
AE
V
B
Any
opposed
okay,
so
now
we'll
go
on
to
the
second
one.
We
have
five,
so
you
can
see
the
the
what
we
worked
on
last
week.
I
believe
it
was
last
week.
I
don't
remember
these
are
the
changes
that
we
made
is
there
a
motion
to
adopt
is
written
number
two.
F
B
Any
comments
or
questions,
I
have
a
question.
C
AE
B
That's
what
that's,
what
is
on
the
table?
All
those
in
favor
say
I.
I
any
opposed
okay,
this
next
one
is
where
we
didn't
come
to
a
resolution,
and
so
you
will
see
that
there
is
proposed
3a
or
3b
or
andor
or
something
else.
So
can
I
have
a
motion
please
and
then
we'll
discuss
it.
F
There
was
like
a
motion
for
option
a
or
option
b.
D
I
All
right,
thank
you,
mayor
if
I
was
supporting
this
I'll
bring
something
up
later,
but
I
would
like
to
if
we
go
with
option
3b.
I
I
would
like
to
modify
it
to
say
instead
of
encourage
a
mix,
create
opportunities
for
a
mix
of
housing
topologies
to
allow
for
a
range
of
affordability
options
with
a
variety
of
sizes
of
housing
units,
and
then
I
would
move
in
visual
styles
closer
to
that,
because
it
relates
to
variety,
I
suppose,
and
then
ladder
and
ease
of
movement
for
the
physically
disabled.
B
Okay,
I'm
gonna
ask
you
to
I
guess
I
can
I'm
gonna
ask
you
to
repeat
that
and
I'll
type
it
okay.
AE
I
I
I
X
X
B
B
Yeah
I
got
that
and
visual
styles
and
ease
of
movement
for
the
physically
disabled,
yeah.
Okay.
So
I'm
going
to
ask
you
to
make
a
motion
to
amend
it
to
that
and
then
we'll
just
discuss
what
you've
thrown
out.
B
Okay?
So
let's
open
this
up
for
a
discussion,
that's
what
that's
what's
in
front
of
us
here!
Councilmember
stokes
is
your
hand.
L
Up
yeah,
I
just
just
one
minor
thing,
but
I
just
had
a
concern
about
taking.
L
I
know
saying
variety
of
housing
units
kind
of
broadens
it,
but
is
the
sizes,
I
think
that's
something
that's
important
to
people
and
we
talk
a
lot
about
it.
I
just
want
to
think
about
that.
That
probably
is
not
going
to
make
any
difference,
but.
B
B
L
Emil
in
terms
of
taking
that
out
or
with
the
new
language.
AF
I
think
either
approach
is
going
to
be
fine.
If,
whenever
you
say
you
know,
have
a
general
statement
about
variety
and
then
start
mentioning
specific
things,
it
can
become
too
focused.
So
I
think
it
is
it's.
I
think
it's
fine
either
way
it's
just
kind
of
a
council
preference
for
how
you'd
like
to
have
it
worded
in
this
specific
policy.
AF
B
C
C
They
want
options
to
be
able
to
age
in
place.
They
want
options
to
you
know,
be
able
to
live
in
a
multifam.
C
You
know
not
a
multi-generational
home,
they
want,
they
want
options,
and
this,
I
think,
will
help
frame
the
discussion
that
we
need
to
have
next
year,
when
we
start
talking
about
major
housing
policy
way
way
back
when,
when
I
was
first
on
the
planning
commission
we
put
into,
I
think
the
land
use
code
that
people
could
propose
innovative
housing
types
like
cottages
which
are
deregor
now,
but
they
were
innovative
in
2003
and
we
haven't
seen
really
much
come
of
it.
C
So
I
think
we
need
to
look
at
how
we
want
to
balance
the
options
for
mix
of
housing
types,
because
we
need
a
lot
more
housing
and
while
making
sure
that
our
neighborhoods
still
have
stability
still
have
the
infrastructure,
they
need
to
serve
the
people
living
there,
etc.
And
so
I
think
that
this
gets
us
there
and
I
think,
staff
for
creating
3b.
I
think
it
was
staff
that
did
it
and
councilman
barksdale
for
refining
it.
I
will
support
it.
B
And
I
will
say
that
I'm
really
excited
because
I
know
staff
is
promised
in
the
first
quarter
of
next
year
that
we're
going
to
look
at
our
affordable
housing
plan,
and
this
is
included
in
that
is
all
the
different
options
city-wide
of
what
we
can
allow
in
terms
of
creating
a
variety
of
different
types
of
housing,
because
we
have
a
variety
of
different
people
who
want
different
things
and
we
need
more
housing.
Council
members
on
followed
by
council
member
barksdale,
followed
by
councilmember
lee.
AD
Yeah,
thank
you
mayor,
so
I
I
like,
where
we're
going
with
this
language.
AD
The
only
word
that
was
in
3a
that
is
no
longer
in
3b
is
range
of
households,
and
I
like
the
idea
that,
as
we
talk
about
range
of
affordability,
options
and
for
and
household
types,
but
naming
the
fact
that
households
are
changing,
whether
it's
multi-generational
or
whatnot,
so
I
I
would
like
to
see
if
there's
a
friendly
amendment
to
ad
and
household
types
to
the
sentence
where.
B
I
will
just
say
that
think
about
what
staff
just
said
about
when
you
call
out
some
things.
It
opens
the
door
for
what
did
you
not
call
out
the
fact
that
you
reference
one
type,
a
variety,
but
not
other
types
of
variety
sometimes
implies
that
you
didn't
want
the
other
types,
so
just
think
about
that
a
little
bit
and
make
sure
that
that's
what
you
really
what
you
want
to
say.
AF
You
know
again
it's
it's
it's
something
that
it's
probably
going
to
work
either
way.
If
we
do
want
to
to
add
range
of
households
into
it.
I
guess
the
observation,
that's
becoming.
You
know
a
fair,
a
fairly
long,
complicated
policy.
So
you
know
oftentimes
policy
is
kind
of
the
cleaner,
more
concise
the
better,
but
I
don't
think
there's
any
harm
in
putting
it
in
there.
If
we
can
kind
of
figure
out
the
wording
tonight
for
how
it's
going
to
going
to
fit
in
there
and
it
was
contemplated
in
the
3a
option
as
well.
B
AF
I
think
range
of
households
is
better
than
family.
You
know
family
technologies.
I
think
the
range
of
households
is
kind
of
the
correct
term
to
use.
AE
AD
B
B
Okay,
if
you
raise
your
hand,
I'm
going
to
think
you're
opposed
to
it.
AE
B
Any
opposition
to
the
friendly
amendment:
if
not,
then
we
will
stay.
L
L
B
AE
L
Okay,
I
mean,
I
appreciate
the
the
comment
and
all,
but
I
think
I
think
it's
getting
it
too
complex,
and
it
also
just
talking
about.
Where
is
the
wording
in
here.
L
I'm
sorry
missing
that,
but
I
think
the
language
in
here
is
fine,
particularly
when
you
say
a
mix
of
housing
topologies
that
encompasses
the
whole
thing,
bringing
it
down
to
households
or
something
that
indicates
something
where
you
have
a
bunch
of
people
there,
as
opposed
to
an
individual
and
all
that
it
it
kind
of
narrows
it.
It's
not
as
not
as
effective
in
that
sense,
and
I
think
it's
covered
in
there
by
the
broader
term
and
gives.
AE
AF
Yeah,
I
was
a
mayor.
I
was
just
looking
through
our
legislative
drafting
of
this
one
and
we
it
was
intended
that
the
range
of
affordable
affordability
options
when
combined
with
the
sizes
was
meant
to
address
the
range
of
households.
I
think
the
way
that
we
did
originally
draft
3b
was
supposed
to
include
the
range
of
households,
so
it'd
be
fine
with
us
and
probably
more
streamlined.
If
we
didn't
add
that
range
of
households.
B
Okay,
that's
the
kind
of
guidance
we
need
so
we'll
take
that
out.
Council
members
on
I'm
fine
with
that
staff's
recommendation
and
here's
where
we're
back
to
council
member
stokes
create
opportunities
for
a
mix
of
housing
typologies
to
allow
for
a
range
of
affordability
options
with
a
variety
of
housing
units
and
visual
styles
and
ease
of
movement
for
the
physically
disabled.
B
And
so
now
that's
what
we're
discussing
and
let's
see
I
had,
I
think,
council,
member
barksdale
next
and
then
council,
member
lee
and
then
councilman
stokes.
Do
you
want
to
speak
again?
Okay,
so
go
ahead.
Councilmember
barksdale.
I
B
Okay,
councilmember
lee.
G
I
have
a
question:
are
we
just
talking
about
the
one
that
is
being
read
and.
B
Okay,
so
the
policy
ne
21,
22
and
23
are
as
written.
Those
are
in
black.
The
ones
that
we
are
discussing
are.
G
AE
B
L
B
J
B
Okay,
so
if
there
aren't
any
more
comments
or
questions,
we
will
vote
on.
Oh
deputy
mayor:
do
you
have
your
hand
up.
F
B
Okay,
so
the
motion
would
be
to
adopt
this
amendment
as
written
and
to
include
not
the
red
in
front
of
you,
but
the
part
that
councilmember
barksdale
proposed,
which
I
have
read
and
I'm
happy
to
read
it
again,
but
I
think
you
all
have
heard
it
enough.
AE
B
B
Okay-
and
this
is
these-
are
changes
that
we
all
agreed
to
last
time
we
discussed
this,
so
is
there
a
motion
to
approve
this
change.
B
Open
it
for
discussion,
okay,
go
ahead,
councilmember,
robertson,.
C
So
mike,
what
I
was
going
to
suggest
we
do
here
is
just
to
move
the
goal
above
ne
23,
because
the
new
policies-
I
totally
support
it,
but
any
23
talks
about
programs
to
help
older
adults
stay
in
their
homes
as
they
age
and
the
goal
is
to
support
seniors.
Staying
in
the
neighborhood
as
they
age
yeah
seems
to
me
that
the
goal
should
be
reordered
above
23
and
then
the
new
policies
would
be
24,
25
and
26..
I.
B
Any
other
comments
or
questions
on
this
is
proposed,
if
not,
let's
vote
on
it
with
the
edit
revision
that
council
member
robertson
proposed
all
those
in
favor,
say:
aye
aye
any
opposed.
Okay,
thank
you
and
then
we
have
one
more.
B
Again,
this
is
something
we
all
decided
on
last
time
and
you
can
see
where
some
of
the
writing
has
been
taken
out
and
and
the
red
is
what's
been
added
in.
Is
there
a
motion
to
approve
this
is
written
and
then
we'll
open
it
for
discussion
so.
AI
B
Not
seeing
any
all
those
in
favor
say:
aye
aye
any
opposed
all
right,
very
good.
So
now
that
we've
done
that,
I
believe
we
go
back
and
vote
on
our
amended
ordinance.
6634
charmaine.
Am
I
correct?
Yes,
you
absolutely
are
thank
you.
B
AD
I
I
wanted
to
check
in.
I
believe
that
when
we
had
this
last
time,
we
had
gotten
some
comments
about
any
14
and
I
believe
it's
in
one
of
the
previous
pages,
where
there
was
a
request
from
the
community
about
public,
create
new
sorry,
create
new
gathering
places
that
it
was
create
new
public
gathering
places
or
publicly
accessible.
And
I
wondered
if
that
was
something
we
had
considered
or
was
willing
to
consider
as
part
of
the
final
adoption.
B
K
I
thought
I
clicked
that
any
14
is
within
the
next
section,
so
it's
not
shown
on
this
slide,
but
I
would
be
happy
to
read
it
for
council
if
that
would
be
helpful
sure.
So
any
14
reads:
create
new
gathering
places
for
community
members
to
meet
mingle
and
get
to
know
one
another.
AD
I
think
it's
a,
I
think,
it's
important
that
there
are
public
gathering
places
or
publicly
accessible
as
we
look
at
the
north
northeast
bellevue
area,
and
this
this
fits
in
the
sense
of
community
strong
sense
of
community
within
northeast
belby,
where
all
residents
feel
they
belong
and,
having
places
to
gather,
I
think,
is
important.
B
L
Well,
I
mean,
I
don't
think
it
hurts
too
much
in
there.
I
don't
want
to
create
some
expectations
with
this
and
we
do
have
public
spaces,
including
community
centers
and
all
in
and
several
both
in
newport.
I
mean
the
east
gate
in
that
area
and
in
lake
hills.
So
I
guess
the
question
is,
is
this
is,
and
is
this
really
helpful,
or
will
it
create
some
expectations
that
we
will
have
trouble
with.
C
So
I,
like,
I
appreciate
councilmember
stokes
watching
out
for
creating
unreasonable
expectations,
but
I
also
the
what
I
was
reflecting
on
when
I
was
listening
to
councilmembers
on
speak
about.
It
is,
of
course
it
would
include
that,
but
it
would
also
include
private
spaces
and
those
other
third
places
there's
lots
of
places
where
people
gather
that
may
not
necessarily
be
in
public
ownership.
So
I
think,
leaving
it
more
general
is
probably
the
way
to
go,
because
it's
more,
I
think,
it's
more
inclusive,
yeah
yeah
yeah.
AE
AD
I
was
going
to
say
mayor.
I
just
wanted
to
make
sure
that
this
discussion
was
raised,
because
I
think
that
night,
when
we
had
so
many
discussion,
points
that
this
one
might
not
have
actually
had
the
discussion
and
it's
important
for
us
to
have
this
and
get
this
discussion.
Thank
you
right.
Councilmember.
I
B
Right
so
we'll
we'll
now
we
are
back
to
the
main
ordinance
with
all
the
revisions
that
we
voted
in
in
those
five
sections,
and
I
think
councilmember
robertson
has
a
question
before
we
vote
actually.
C
I
had
a
comment
because
this
has
been.
I
just
have
to
give
a
little
love
to
all
of
my
colleagues,
all
the
engaged
people
and
the
staff,
because
this
has
been
one
where
it
was
outreach
during
covenant,
and
this
also
applies
to
northwest
okay,
but
I'll
just
say
it
once,
and
we
had
several
people
in
the
neighborhood
who
were
very
concerned.
C
We
had
other
people
who
were
concerned
about
the
housing
topology
and
every
single
one
of
the
people
who
I
share.
The
title
council
member
with
and
mayor
and
deputy
mayor
of
course,
listened
to
the
public
and
listened
to
what
people
had
to
say.
Listen
to
the
staff
and
together
we
created
a
set
of
amendments
that
that
really
kind
of
just
fine
tune.
C
The
plan
and
we've
gotten
broad
support
for
so
I
think
this
is
really
good
work
and
I'm
I'm
proud
of
the
work
that
staff
and
and
the
neighborhood
folks
and
the
planning
commission
have
done
on
this,
and
I
will
be
happy
to
vote.
Yes.
Thank.
L
Just
real
briefly,
I
want
to
appreciate
councilman
robertson's
comments
on
that
and
also
appreciate
the
you
know.
This
is
going
to
be
really
important
to
have
these
two
done.
We
had
some
people
say.
Why
are
we
doing
this
and
we're
not?
You
know
going
to
do
everything
else.
I
think
this
is
a
a
really
great
thing:
we've
done
with
these
two
communities
and
we
will
work
on
this
and
it
will
make
it
much
better
when
we
start
working
on
things
in
the
in
the
city
as
a
whole
and
with
other
neighborhoods.
L
So
I
think
it's
great
it's
a
good
step
forward.
We
could
have
just
said
well,
we'll
wait
till
we
get
to
everybody
else,
but
agreeing.
I
agree
with
the
councilman
robertson's
comments
and
it's
it's
just
been
a
great
effort.
I'm
very
pleased
have
been
part
of
it.
B
And
thank
you
and
I'd
like
to
call
out
councilmember
barksdale
as
a
liaison
to
the
planning
commission
who
guided
these
conversations
and
has
represented
the
planning
commission
very
well
in
our
council
discussions.
Okay,
any
more
comments
with.
If
not,
we
will
take
a
vote,
all
those
and
yeah.
We
have
the
motion.
Sorry
all.
B
AC
B
There's
there's
our
four.
So
next
we
have
ordinance
6635,
and
this
is
now
talking
about
northwest
bellevue
and
it's
going
to
be
the
same
thing.
Where
we'll
hear
about
the
ordinance
we'll
look
at
the
five
amendments,
we'll
we'll
look
at
them
individually,
vote
on
them
and
we'll
discuss
them
and
vote
on
them,
and
so
staff
go
ahead.
K
Great
thank
you
mayor,
so
this
one
is
very
similar
to
the
one
we
just
went
through,
so
it
should
be
a
familiar
process.
There
are
a
couple
differences
in
the
amendments
that
I'd
like
to
walk
through,
so
we'll
just
walk
through
the
five
of
these
really
quickly
and
then
same
process
as
before.
So
for
the
first
one.
This
is
the
same
policy
and
similar
narrative
to
what
was
brought
forward
is
one
of
the
amendments
on
northeast
that
should
be
pretty
familiar
about
safety.
K
Northeast
number
three
is
about
adding
a
new
policy
which
came
from
the
northeast
plan
about
aging
in
place.
So
that
brings
a
little
bit
of
parity
between
the
the
two
plans.
K
The
fourth
section
we
discussed
on
november
22nd,
because
these
are
the
amendments
that
were
brought
as
an
attachment
there
related
to
pedestrian
safety
in
the
mobility
and
access
section,
so
that
has
both
a
new
policy
and
a
number
of
narrative
changes,
and
then
the
last
bit
is
that
same
narrative.
That
was
number
five
on
the
northeast
plan
as
well.
So
with
that,
I
will
hand
it
back
over
to
the
mayor
to
walk
through
each
of
these.
In
turn,
okay,.
B
Well,
let's
start
with
an
ordinance
to
adopt
6635.
B
B
B
Any
comments
or
questions
on
this,
these
changes
that
we
made
not
seeing
any
all
those
in
favor
say
aye.
F
B
And
you'll
see
that
we
struck
out
specific
reference
to
one
particular
type
of
housing.
Is
there
a
motion
to
and
I'll
let
you
comment
a
second
council
member
barks
sale.
Is
there
a
motion
to
approve
this.
F
I
Comment
or
amendment
so,
in
addition
to
the
number
two
item
there
of
removal,
I
would
also
like
to
amend
s
northwest
24
to
similar
language
that
we
had
in
the
previous
northeast,
so
create
opportunities
for
a
mix
of
housing
topologies
within
both
lower
and
higher
intensity
districts.
To
allow
for
a
range
of
affordability
options
with
a
variety
of
housing
units
and
visual
styles
and
ease
of
movement
for
the
physically
disabled.
B
K
The
this
is
the
same
original
language
that
was
taken
over
to
the
other
policy,
so
it
is,
it
is
the
same
location
in
this
plan.
B
So
we're
just
submitting
nw24
to
read
what
it
we
put
into
the
ne
20
whatever.
If
that
was
242,
I
don't
know
anyway.
So
that's
your
amendment.
Is
there
a
second
for
that?
Second.
C
So
I
just
I
didn't
hear
one
of
the
words
I
want
to
make
sure
it's
exactly
the
same,
because
I
heard
a
variety
of
housing
units,
not
a
variety
of
sizes
of
housing
units
councilmember
barksdale
did
you
mean
to
say
a
variety
of
sizes
of
housing
units
and
visual
styles.
AE
Took
it
out
okay,
either
way,
it
was
consistent
with
what
we
put
in
the
other
one.
I
think
all
right,
I'm
good.
B
G
We
we
eliminated
the
looking
at
doing
all
that,
but
the
policy
as
nw26
still
mentioned
yes
of
the
new
accessory
dwelling
units
and
so
on.
Should
we
include
that
or.
W
B
I'm
okay
with
leaving
it,
but
we
could
we
can
do
whatever
you
wouldn't.
The
council
wants
on
this.
K
See
a
language
in
the
other
neighborhood
plan
is
a
little
bit
different,
but
we've
retained
the
additional
policies
that
gave
some
description
of
what
new
housing
typologies
might
you
know
have
impacts
and
so
kind
of
how
to
handle
that.
So
that's
similar
to
this
policy,
but
this
one
does
explicitly
mention
accessory
dwelling
units
as
opposed
to
the
broader.
K
Make
it
read
similarly,
if,
instead
of
the
term
accessory
dwelling
units,
you
simply
said
new
housing
typologies
so
that
it
it's
rudolph
with
the
policy
that's
being
retained.
G
A
B
I'm
going
to
erase
all
motions
and
start
over
because
I
don't
know
where
we
are
so.
Is
there
a
motion
to
approve
policy
and
w25
as
edit
as
it's
been
removed?
So
is
there
a
motion
to
approve
that
so.
F
AD
B
I
Yeah,
so
thank
you,
councilman
members
on
the
intention
was
to
keep
the
rest
of
it
the
same,
except
for
the
parts
of
like
create
opportunities
for
switching
the
changing
it
to
housing
units
only
and
then
switching
visual
styles,
the
location
of
it
to
closer.
So
the
intention
was
to
keep
it
keep
the
within
both
lower
and
higher
intensity
districts.
In
this
policy,
everything
else
making
everything
else,
the
same.
B
B
Okay,
that
is
there
a
motion
to
amend.
Let's
get
the
motion
on
the
table
first
and
then
we'll
do
questions
or
comments.
Is
there
a
motion
to
amend.
L
Well,
I
I
think
that
we're
going
to
be
working
with
both
of
these,
and
I
think
this
just
introduces
a
little
bit
of
a
difference
that
would
not
be
positive
in
a
sense,
I
don't
understand
what
both
lower
and
higher
density
intensity
districts
means
in
context
here
and
why
that's
not
applied
in
the
north
northeast
area.
I
just
think
this
is.
L
This
is
an
important
overall
piece
on
the
mix
of
housing
topologies,
what
we're
going
to
do
and
there's
nothing
about
northwest
that
I've
seen
or
northeast
that
makes
one
or
the
other
makes
for
any
differences
in
this
particular
one.
So
I
think
it
would
be
better
in
terms
of
the
administration
of
working
on
it
and
working
within
the
city
as
a
whole
to
have
both
of
these
consistent.
B
I
think
it's
representative
of
what
the
community
said
is
why
it's
different,
because
they're
different
communities,
but
I
hear
you,
council,
member
lee.
B
AD
Yeah,
I
was
actually
going
to
say
the
same
thing
as
the
previous
comment
about
the
fact
that
you
know
we
have
heard
from
the
community
that
these
are
their
plans
and
so
to
the
degree
that
there
are
nuances
that
are
specific
to
their
plan.
So
I
would
want
to
honor
language
that
came
from
the
community
as
much
as
we
can,
while
trying
to
create
consistency
as
well,
so
maybe
a
meal.
AF
Yeah,
I
would,
I
think
I
would
keep
that
language
in
the
northwest
plan.
The
two
neighborhoods
do
have
different
land
uses
when
you
kind
of
look
at
the
comp
plan
designations
and
zoning
and
northwest
does
have
more
of
a
variety
of
densities
and
land
uses
from
single
family
all
the
way
up
to
multi-family
in
that
neighborhood.
So
I
would,
if
you
were
going
to
change
it,
to
be
more
consistent
with
the
northeast
policy
as
amended.
I
would
retain
that
language
about,
within
both
lower
and
higher
intensity
districts.
W
B
G
AE
B
All
right,
so
I'm
going
to
open
it
up
for
discussion.
I
know
councilmember
lee
wants
to
speak
to
that.
Who
else
wants
to
speak
to
this
council
member
robertson?
I
see
councilmember
mark
still
with
his
mouth
open
his
mouth
move,
but
no
words
come
out.
G
Thank
you.
Since
we
talked
about
that,
you
know
we
need
to
respect
the
neighborhood
characteristic
and
earlier
we
actually
removed
the
consideration
of
attachment.
You
know
the
dau
and
adu
so
on.
So
here
we're
talking
about
accessory
drawing
to
an
existing
residential
character
of
the
street,
and
I
appreciate
that
you
know
the
people
from
northwest
bellevue
is
supporting
in
general,
the
whole
ordinance
and
but
they
still
have
their
own
suggestion
of
community
involvement
moving
forward
on
any
specific,
you
know,
details
respecting
the
neighborhood
characteristic
and
so
on.
G
So
I
think
this
one
would
definitely
be
something
they
would
be
very
interested
and
concerned
with,
and
it's
consistent
with
what
the
staff
that's
being
very
responsive.
Listening
to
them
and
talking
you
know-
and
I
think
that's
was
when
the
reason
why
the
changes
have
been
made
and
the
amendments
have
been
put
through
and
accepted
and
approved.
So
I
believe
this
is
maybe
this
oversight
for
some
reason,
so
I
move
to
remove
it.
Thank.
C
You
I
I
first,
I
didn't
hear
a
second
on
jared's
motion,
but
I,
but
but
and
I'm
happy
to
make
that.
But
I
think
that
we
made
a
mistake,
because
I
thought
that
the
discussion
before
we
pulled
all
the
motions
off
the
table
and
started
over
on
this
slide
20
was
that
we
would
amend
26
to
track
with
24,
explore
regulations
to
minimize
the
impact
from
new
housing,
technol
type
typologies
to
the
existing
residential
character
of
the
street.
I
thought
that
was
the
motion,
but
well
we.
B
C
The
way
what's
in
black
is
already
part
of
the
main
motion
doesn't
need
to
be
voted
on
separately
unless
we're
going
to
actually
amend.
R
C
B
Okay
and
any
comments
or
questions
about
that
revision
to
the
amendment
to
adopt
it,
as
is
not
seeing
any
all
those
in
favor
say
I
any
opposed
okay.
So
now
nw26
has
voted
in
reads:
councilmember
robertson,
just
so
charmaine
has
this
or
staff.
L
F
B
F
Okay,
I
moved
to
amend
ordinance
635
to
amend
narrative
languages
presented
by
staff,
move
policies,
s
northwest
30-32
and
s
northwest
31
to
the
beginning
of
the
mobility
and
access
section
and
add
a
new
policy
to
follow
these
two
policies.
Reading
quote:
increased
designated
pedestrian
areas
and
sidewalks
within
northwest
bellevue,
prioritizing
the
safety
of
pedestrians
and
determining
locations
of
new
walking
paths.
AD
AD
J
B
B
Yeah,
okay,
so
all
those
in
favor
to
pass
as
written
on
the
screen
say
I
I.
G
F
B
B
Yes,
thank
you.
I
know
I'm
sorry,
I'm
getting
twisted
councilmember
barksdale.
I
All
right,
thank
you,
mayor,
so
having
gone
through
those
and
and
to
your
point
about
that.
The
fact
that
we're
discussing
our
affordable
housing
strategy
in
q1
of
2022
and
the
adu
is
already
a
part
of
that
affordable
housing
strategy
and
given
need,
as
we
heard
from
the
in
terms
of
written
and
oral
communication.
B
So
that
staff
direction
not
something
we'll
vote
on,
but
I'd
like
to
get
a
head
on
to
see
if
the
majority
of
the
council
would
agree
on
that
and
I'm
nodding
my
head
and
I
see
council
member
stokes,
I
see
council
members
on,
I
see
councilmember
barksdale,
so
that's
four
at
least,
and
I
I
can't
see
any
reaction
except
I
know
councilmember
lee
has
a
question
which
I'll
get
to
in
a
minute,
but
that
is
a
majority
providing
that
direction
to
staff
point
of
order.
B
C
C
My
assumption
is
that
when
staff
comes
back
with
the
affordable
housing
work
plan,
this
will
be
something
that's
teed
up
then
for
discussion,
but
we
just
can't
pull
policy
documents
out
at
the
end
of
a
long
discussion
and
say:
hey,
let's
take
a
vote
and
give
staff
direction.
That's
not
how
we
do
actually.
B
Robertson,
the
staff
colleagues-
that's
actually
something
that
staff
had
mentioned
when
we
first
started
discussions
about
this-
that
we
didn't
need
to
include
it
in
here,
because
it
was
going
to
be
brought
up
in
the
first
quarter
next
year
when
we
start
discussing
the
affordable
housing
strategies.
So
this
is
not
new
policy.
This
is
not
new
direction,
but
I
think
it's
an
emphasis
that
this
is
truly
what
we
want
to
do
and
it's
what
staff
has
told
us
they're
already
going
to
do
for
clarification.
C
I
understand
that
and
I
think
it's
fine
if
someone
says
I'm
really
looking
forward
to
discussing
this
next
year,
but
to
try
to
give
council
direction
at
the
end
of
a
discussion.
I
think
that's
really
really
poor
form
and
I
I
don't
think
we
should
do
that.
We
will
discuss
it
next
year.
I
assume
it's
going
to
happen,
but
everyone
would
be
really
angry
if
I
did
that
because
it's
not
appropriate.
G
Oh,
since
jennifer
brought
it
up,
you
know
I
was
going
to
add
something,
but
I
would
keep
quiet
because
I
agree
with
her.
Thank
you.
Okay,.
L
Well,
I
think
that
was
an
unnecessary
attack
on
the
comment.
I
do
agree
that
we're
not
giving
real
direction.
L
It's
just
this
expression
of
a
follow-through
on
all
the
conversations
we've
had
tonight
on
accessory
dwellings
and
we're
going
to
work
on,
and
we
took
them
out
of
this
because
we're
going
to
work
on
them
right
away
and
we're
just
saying,
but
you
know
four
members
of
the
council
just
saying
hey,
we
really
like
this
and
we
want
to
move
this
along
we're
not
and-
and
frankly,
I
think
probably
everybody
on
the
council
over
the
years
has
done
something
like
this.
So
I
think
we've
got
to
temper
that
down
a
little
bit.
B
V
I
was
just
going
to
ask
matt
cummins
our
the
community
development
director.
If
perhaps
he
could
just
comment
on
that
on
this
particular
ask
tonight:
mac.
AG
AG
In
october
we
went
through
a
number
of
potentially
big
move
items
that
you
all
expressed
interest
in
and
asked
us
to
put
together
some
ideas
around
how
those
might
be
prioritized
for
your
consideration
and
then
separate
from
that
tonight,
you're
having
a
discussion
around
potential
implementation
and
timing
of
implementation
around
the
neighborhood
area,
plans,
which
would
be
a
code
and
policy
exercise
that
our
department
would
work
with
mike
brennan's
department
development
services
on
to
create
a
luca,
so
they're
they're
related,
but
not
the
same
thing.
AG
So
as
we
talk
about
bringing
back
the
quote-unquote,
affordable
housing
study
work,
there's
a
number
of
big
things
in
the
affordable
housing.
Strategic
plan
that
have
not
yet
fully
been
implemented
and
council
wants
to
make
sure
that
is
done
as
quickly
as
possible
and
then
some
new
work
that
you've
asked
us
to
look
into
as
well.
AG
So
what
we're
doing
is
putting
that
all
together
and
we're
going
to
be
back
absolutely
for
sure,
with
all
of
these
things
and
help
you
array
them
out
from
a
timing
perspective
going
into
2022,
so
you're
likely
to
see
multiple
work
sessions,
pretty
quick
in
the
new
year,
as
we
start
to
put
that
all
together.
For
you.
B
Thank
you,
okay,
do
you,
council,
member
lee
and
stokes
still
have
your
hands
up
or
is
that
just
yeah.
G
Thank
you.
Thank
you.
In
view
of
that,
you
know
I
have
something
to
add
on
to
what
the
customer
was
they
raised,
because
I
kind
of
agree
with
him.
I
support
him
because
affordable
housing,
spec
topic,
it's
something
that
we've
all
kind
of
expressed
our
support
for
it.
So
it
needs
to
really
be
out
there
educating
the
public.
So
what
I
was
suggesting
would
be
very
simple:
we
need
to
really
come
up
with
a
good
communication
program.
G
I
briefly
kind
of
mentioned
it
once
before.
You
know,
but
I
think
this
is
opportunity
for
us
to
help
educate
the
general
public.
What
affordable
housing
is
what
a
housing
situation
is
and
what
do
we
need
to
do
and
people
need
to
understand
much
better,
because
otherwise
we're
going
to
have
continuing
challenges
and
lots
of
questions
and
so
on.
So
I
think
this
opportunity
to
do
that,
and
I
want
to
put
you
in
my
placenta.
AD
B
Z
Thank
you,
city
manager.
Before
council,
we've
we've
gone
through
the
five
individual
ordinances
for
each
of
the
comprehensive
plan,
amendments
that
were
part
of
the
work
program.
Now
we
have
what
we
call
a
general
ordinance
or
umbrella
ordnance
6636,
which
would
approve
the
entire
package
of
amendments
for
this
year.
F
F
J
B
The
opposed
okay
that
passes
so
now
we're
on
to
the
last
hard
part
of
the
meeting.
It
doesn't
have
to
be
that
hard,
but
this
is
to
do
with
east
main,
and
we
have
one
main
amendment
that
we
are
working
on
last
week
and
staff
bless
their
hearts,
we're
able
to
bring
it
back
before
the
new
year.
So
we
can
try
to
maybe
pass
this
tonight
and
then,
if
we
indeed
we
pass
the
first
one,
then
we
have,
I
believe,
three
more
kind
of
perfunctory
ones
to
pass
after
that.
B
So
would
somebody
staff
do
you
want
to
go
ahead
and
introduce
this
one.
V
Let's
go
ahead
and
turn
this
over.
Yes,
I'm
going
to
go
ahead
and
well,
first
of
all,
it's
12g
through
12j,
and
I'm
going
to
turn
over
to
mike
to
to
frame
this
up
and
talk
a
little
bit
about
what
happened
at
the
last
meeting
of
the
amendment
on
the
table.
AA
Great
thank
you,
mr
miyaki
good
evening
again,
mayor
robinson,
deputy
mayor
of
new
house
and
council
members.
So
also
joining
me
this
evening
are
the
is
the
staff
team.
So
if
there
are
questions
along
the
way,
certainly
they
can
provide
assistance
in
answering
those
questions.
AA
So
this
was
last
before
the
council,
as
the
mayor
noted
last
monday
night,
as
you
were
working
to
move
through
the
ordinances
that
would
adopt
and
put
in
place,
delaney's
code
amendments
and
and
other
code
amendments
to
implement
the
east
main
transit
oriented
development.
Neighborhood
next
slide,
please.
So
those
ordinances
include
the
the
main
or
the
primary
ordinance,
which
is
the
land
use
code
amendment
which
is
66
27.
AA
Adoption
of
that
ordinance
is
necessary
before
you
move
on
to
the
following
ordinances,
which
include
6628,
which
is
the
rezone
that
puts
in
place
the
new
east
main
tod
land
use
districts
in
the
east
main
neighborhood
6629,
which
are
conformance
amendments
that
brings
appropriate
references
to
the
noise
code
for
the
east,
main
land
use
districts
and
then
finally,
6630,
which
are
also
conformance.
Amendments
which
establish
the
sign
code.
Regulations
in
east
maine
that
are
consistent
with
downtown
council
will
again
need
to
act
on
the
primary
ordinance
before
moving
on
to
the
next
ordinances.
AA
So
I
wanted
to
spend
a
few
minutes
tonight
talking
about
the
timeline
and
then
just
a
short
recap
of
the
activities
in
front
of
council
regarding
east
main
and
then
move
to
those
final
actions.
Next
slide,
please.
So
in
council
deliberations,
it
started
back
in
july
of
this
year,
following
the
public
hearing
on
the
complete
draft
of
the
code.
AA
The
council
touched
on
a
number
of
important
topic
areas,
including
you
know,
determining
the
appropriate
building,
height
and
density
and
scale
in
east
maine,
responding
to
housing
and
affordable
housing
needs
in
the
city
by
establishing
a
minimum
housing
requirement
in
east
maine,
promoting
the
development
of
affordable
housing
with
an
incentive
system
that
provides
additional
housing
through
entitlements
for
affordability.
AA
He
created
a
fee
in
lieu
incentive
for
commercial
development
and
he
also
explored
the
alternative
of
a
deed
and
lewd
partnership
with
affordable
housing
developers
and
that
concept
can
be
implemented
through
the
development
agreement
in
east
maine.
But
you
also
expressed
an
interest
in
a
more
structured
approach
that
could
be
explored
in
upcoming
planning
initiatives.
AA
He
also
approved
exceptions
to
allow
expansion
of
the
bellevue
club
and
created
a
broad
development
agreement
that
allows
for
deviations
from
the
code
to
allow
the
flexibility
to
capture
you
know,
opportunities
for
public
benefit
and
value
that
may
require
some
alternative
approaches
at
council's
discretion
and
then,
finally,
last
week
you
were
discussing
a
request
from
wig
properties
to
amend
the
code,
to
allow
for
exceptions,
to
block
requirements,
to
simplify
options
to
site
a
grocery
store.
AA
There
was
an
an
amendment
offered
to
allow
for
minimum
housing
phasing
by
council
member
robertson
that
was
discussed
and
then
finally
approved
by
the
council,
and
then
the
deputy
mayor
offered
a
an
amendment
for
block
size
to
allow
for
more
flexibility
for
sighting
of
uses.
Specifically,
your
grocery
store.
That
motion
was
subsequently
revised
and
in
front
of
the
council.
Now
is
a
motion
that
allows
for
expansion
of
the
exception
for
blocks
from
200
feet,
to
350
feet
from
114th
avenue
and
main
street
for
all
uses.
AA
AA
So
again,
the
council
will
need
to
act
on
the
ordinances
this
evening
to
implement
the
full
amendments
to
the
city
code
to
implement
the
east
main
land
east
coast
amendments.
I
want
to
turn
it
over
to
the
mayor.
We
have
additional
information
if
the
council
needs
to
review
any
of
the
amendment
language
but
again
want
to
turn
back
to
the
mayor
for
your
continued
discussion
and
deliberation
and
action
mayor.
Okay,.
B
C
Yeah,
I
know
that
we
got
our
dust
packet
in
motion
from
deputy
mayor
newinghouse,
so
I'm
going
to
withdraw
my
motion
and
I'm
happy
to
second
his.
B
F
Thank
you
mayor
well,
first,
as
you
alluded
to
a
big
thank
you
to
staff
for
working
so
quickly
on
this
amendment
and
addressing
all
the
various
points
of
view
and
the
excellent
suggestions
and
conversations
by
my
colleagues
last
week.
As
you
recall,
the
amendments
based
on
the
stakeholders
requests
for
a
reasonable
adjustment
to
the
block,
length
and
perimeter
requirements.
F
So
they
could
accommodate
the
unique
requirements
of
a
grocery
store
and
make
the
grocery
store
work,
a
request
that
is
intended
to
keep
the
promise
to
the
surry
downs
neighborhood,
the
residents
of
that
neighborhood
and
the
cac
that
all
agreed
that
a
grocery
store
was
one
of
the
main
priority
amenities
that
they
wanted
to
see
in
east
maine.
So,
as
noted,
the
current
code,
language
could
easily
be
changed
to
keep
the
staff
proposed
block
size
and
the
length
requirement,
but
create
an
exception
to
accommodate
a
grocery
store
with
its
required
parking.
F
The
proposed
amendment
is
narrowly
tailored
to
address
the
requested
needs
of
the
property
owner
stakeholder,
which
is
to
expand
the
portions
of
the
of
east
maine
that
do
not
do
not
need
to
meet
the
block,
size
and
length
requirements
from
200
feet
to
350
feet
from
114th
avenue
southeast
and
then
include
the
exception
for
main
street
as
well.
When
a
grocery
store
is
proposed
as
part
of
the
project,
so
grocery
store
use
is
defined
and
and
more
permanent
they're.
F
An
ongoing
need
in
our
neighborhood
typically
involve
very
much
long-term
leases
and
have
built
strong
relationships
with
the
community
and
with
its
customers.
The
mayor
made
an
excellent
suggestion
during
our
last
meeting
that
I
supported,
but
council
has
already
provided
other
incentives
to
the
code.
F
Council
member
box
also
made
an
excellent
idea
to
address
unmet
retail
needs
in
our
community,
but,
as
I
work
with
staff,
it's
it's
challenging
to
define
and
it
would
be
difficult
to
determine
and
build
consensus
around
what
an
unmet
need
might
be
or
what
might
look
like,
and
it
may
also
change
over
time.
Further.
An
exception
for
an
unmet
need
would
provide
less
predictability
for
staff
developers
and,
of
course,
the
public.
So
I
thank
my
colleagues
for
once
again
considering
this
amendment
and
look
forward
to
your
feedback
and
your
support.
C
So
I've
been
mulling
over.
Thank
you
debbie
mayor.
This
is
excellent.
I've
been
mulling
over
the
language
here
and
I'm
a
little
bit
concerned
that
it
could
be
misread.
I
had
to
read
it
a
few
times.
I
think
what
this
is
trying
to
say
is
that
block
size
and
length
requirements
don't
apply
to
any
block
within
the
project
limit.
C
AA
So
I
yes,
I
believe
that
is
an
accurate
restatement
of
the
exception.
I
could
ask
nick
whipple,
who
was
assisted
in
in
crafting
that
language
to
to
weigh
in
here
too.
As
far
as
the
suggested
change,
it
certainly
didn't
change
the
intended
meeting
that
it
was
in
fact
specific
to
a
grocery
store
within
those
dimensional
areas
of
that
350
feet
from
maine
and
114..
C
When
a
grocery
store
is
proposed
within
the
block
and
then
the
last
sentence
stays
as
amended
in
deputy
mayor's
revision.
Does
that
get?
I
just
think
it's
a
little
bit
clearer
language.
I
just
don't
want
when
this
is
being
evaluated
in
10
years
or
five
years
or
whenever
people
to
not
understand
what
we
were
trying
to
say.
H
If
I,
if
I
can
add
and
answer
council
members
question
there,
that
is
absolutely
correct.
That
is
what
we
intended.
I
think
when
you
read
off
your
proposed
language,
councilman
robertson.
I
just
want
to
make
sure
on
the
second
part
of
that
I
think
you're
intending
to
have
block
instead
of
project
limit
within
the
block.
C
H
Right,
that
is
our
intent,
and
we
will
read
that
over
again
to
make
sure
that's
what
it
reads
and
the
comma
is
placed
appropriately.
AE
Yes,
okay,
thank
you.
Councilmember.
B
L
Just
to
make
sure
I
understand
this,
the
language
it
would
have
been
helpful
to
have
the
actual
language
here.
What
is
what
does
it
mean
when
we
say
when
a
grocery
store
is
proposed
within
the
block?
A
L
You
know
down
the
line,
I
mean
you
can
have
a
proposal.
Yeah
we've
got
a
proposal,
give
us
the
you
know
the
the
size
and
it
doesn't
happen.
How
do
we
I
know
these
things?
Are
you
know
kind
of
iffy
sometimes,
but
how
do
we?
L
How
are
we
assured
that
this
will
actually
be
done
for
a
grocery
store,
that
something
doesn't
happen
down
the
line
and
I'm
not
saying
there
anything
like
that's
going
to
happen,
but
I
just
think,
and
if
we're
really
looking
out
for
the
interest
of
the
community,
you
know
the
city
and
and
and
our
citizens
that
we
need
to
ask
about
this.
That's.
AA
The
challenge
is,
I
think,
after
it's
built
that
if
the
grocery
store
were
to
move
out
or
change
the
whole
configuration
of
how
food
is
retailed
into
the
future,
which
could
happen,
and
then
there
is
a
possibility
that
the
future
would
in
the
future.
We
would
have
another
use
within
that
space.
AA
Again,
that's
the
risk.
I
think
that
comes
with
with
something
like
this
sort
of
an
amendment,
but
again
it
is
to
try
to
encourage
that
upfront,
establishment
of
a
grocery
store
and,
as
the
deputy
mayor
noted
in
his
comments,
grocery
stores
usually
are
there
for
a
long
term,
many
of
them
for
decades
and
anticipate
that
if
they
do
establish
a
grocery
store
and
take
advantage
of
this
amendment,
it
would
most
likely
be
there
for
quite
a
while.
AA
But
that
being
said
that
there
is
also
concern
from
the
property
owners
that
should
that
retail
type
change
considerably
into
the
future,
that
would
they
be
stuck
with
the
space
that
they
couldn't
retain
it
with
something
else.
So
we
don't
want
that
to
occur
either.
So
I
think
this
is
a
balancing
attempt
here
to
ensure
that
the
configuration
supports
that
grocery
store
use
at
the
front,
but
doesn't
mandate
it
over
in
perpetuity
over
time.
Should
the
market
change
for
that
use.
L
Yeah
I
appreciate
that
yeah.
I
think
that
last
part
is
yeah
if
they
have
a
grocery
store
there,
and
something
else
happens,
that's
just
the
way
it
goes,
and
I
think
it's
it's
going
to
be
a
good
amenity,
and
I
agree
with
this.
I
just
want
to
make
sure
that
the
language
is
clear,
that
we're
not
going
to
change
the
benefit
and
then
well
they.
You
know
something
happened,
something
changed
before
it
was
done,
so
it's
at
that
level.
L
AE
B
Thank
you
any
other
comments
or
questions.
Otherwise
we
will
vote
as
amended,
including
the
friendly
amendment,
all
those
in
favor
say
aye
aye
any
opposed.
Okay.
So
that's
the
amend.
That's
one
of
the
amendments
now,
council,
member
barksdale.
Did
you
have
another
amendment
that
you
wanted
to
propose,
or
are
we
good
with
this.
B
All
right,
so
any
other
comments
or
questions
on
the
ordinance
6627,
not
seeing
any
all
those
in
favor
say
aye
any
opposed
so
that
passes
so
now
we
just
have
these
subsequent
amendments.
Mr
miyaki,
would
you
like
to
introduce
those.
V
Mayor
I'm
going
to
go
ahead
and
turn
over
to
mike
to
just
walk
us
through
and
and
let
him
just
describe
the.
AA
AA
F
I
moved
to
adopt
ordnance
6628
amending
the
selected
land
use
designations
in
the
southwest
bellevue
sub-area
for
consistency
with
revisions
of
the
east,
main
transit,
oriented
development,
land
use
designated
in
the
comprehensive
plan
and
repealing
ordinance
number
2961,
which
adopted
competent
zoning
agreement
number
6837
and
where
the
conditions
have
been
met
or
are
no
longer
necessary.
F
F
AA
V
B
Any
opposed,
okay,
we
have
one
more
and
I'm
going
to
tell
you
in
advance
that
after
this
I'm
going
to
give
each
council
member
an
opportunity
to
say
something
about
the
year
or
what,
whatever
you
want
to
say,
a
cheery
good
night.
So
everybody
stay
tuned.
B
F
B
Any
comments
or
questions
all
those
in
favor
say
aye
any
opposed.
Okay,
excellent
work,
excellent!
So
I'm
going
to
close
the
meeting
and
then
I'd
like
to
give
you
each
an
opportunity
to
round
up
the
year
councilmember
robertson.
Let's
start
with
you,.
C
Okay,
thank
you
mayor.
Well,
it's
just
been
it's
been
quite
a
year,
the
with
being
still
on
remote
meetings.
You
would
think
that
we,
both
here
at
council
and
all
the
regional
bodies
that
we
all
serve
on,
would
really
be
slow,
walking
or
being
unable
to
get
a
huge
amount
of
work
done,
but
I
have
found
just
the
opposite
to
be
the
case.
The
the
this
council,
I
mean
look
at
east
main.
We
finally
got
it
done.
Yay
I
mean
started
up
during
I
mean
obama
was
president
when
that
thing
started.
C
Let
me
just
take
a
big
relapse
on
that
right,
but
you
know
the
regional
work.
I've
been
on
I've.
We've
delivered
some
major
from
the
county-wide
planning
policies
to
just
putting
the
transportation
regional
transportation
plan
out
to
for
public
comment
on
my
psrc
committee
to
the
to
the
three
policy
documents
on
the
regional
transit
committee.
C
So
I
mean
the
the
staff
of
bellevue
and
just
has
just
been
doing
a
yeoman's
job,
and
I
just
really
couldn't
be
prouder
of
the
work
that
this
body
bellevue,
the
staff,
the
council
and
an
engaged
public
in
a
time
when
we're
not
meeting
in
person
have
been
doing
so.
C
I
think
that
it's
just
been
really
a
very
reassuring
year
that
we're
continuing
to
get
stuff
done
and
do
it
well,
and
so
I
just
I'm,
really
proud
of
of
the
work
that
we've
all
been
doing,
and
thank
you
all
for
that
and
have
a
very,
very
happy
holiday.
I
mean
can't
believe
2022
is
upon
us.
It's
and
we've
got
a
lot
more
work
to
do.
C
L
Oh
yeah,
it's
been
an
amazing
ride
and
you
know
working
and
the
observations
the
councilmember
just
made
is.
I
agree
with
those.
It
was
interesting
to
go
from
sitting
at
the
diocese
at
this
king
county
with
a
regional
policy
committee
and
looking
at
people
and
all
and
what
we
found
was
getting
with
the
groups
on
zoom
and
everything.
We
actually
had
better
conversations.
In
a
sense
they
weren't
as
formal.
We
got
good
presentations,
so
I
think
it
has
been
amazing.
L
We've
been
able
to
accomplish
as
much
and
the
council
meetings
have
been
fine.
I
think
that's
that's
a
positive.
What
I'm
really
excited
about,
though
I
mean,
in
addition
to
that,
is
that
we
have
taken
a
a
just
that
something
you'd.
L
Never
imagine
happened
to
us
and
really
worked
hard
to
move
forward
and
actually
accomplished
a
lot
of
things
that
people
thought
we
couldn't
do
and
put
our
play
ourselves
in
places
that
maybe
we
wouldn't
have
achieved
had
we
not
had
to
deal
with
all
these
other
things,
so
I
think
all
all
of
seven
of
us
and
the
staff
and
amazing
staff
and
and
community
organizations
and
all
I
have
never
seen
us-
come
together
and
and
have
really
honest,
hard
conversations
and
arguments
sometimes,
but
in
the
long
run,
really
accomplishing
things
that
are
amazing
for
the
city,
and
you
know,
as
I
say,
it's
not
it's
we're
not
in
2017
anymore,
thank
goodness,
and
so
we're
we're
really
in
a
up
opportunist
time
to
really
move
forward
in
bellevue
and
and
what
we
worked
on
tonight
with
the
northeast
northwest
is
a
is
a
preview
of
where
we're
gonna
go.
L
We
also
have
some
tremendous
challenges
ahead
of
us
that
we
are
dealing
with,
but
we
haven't
really
made
the
movements
we
need
to.
So
I
think
we
have
have
set
the
table
for
an
amazing
year
or
two
down
the
line
to
really
really
move
bellevue
forward
in
a
way
that
hasn't
been
done
before,
and
so
I'm
excited
about
and
really
enjoyed
this
this
year,
the
last
two
years
with
the
council
and
working
on
things
and
actually
accomplishing
a
lot.
L
Even
though
we
have
sometimes
some
very
strong
disagreements,
but
we
have
really
come
up
with
moving
forward
on
things
and
working
together
and
we,
I
think,
are
poised
to
continue
doing
that
and
in
the
future,
and
I
look
forward
to
it
so
happy
new
year
and
merry
christmas
and
great
holidays
off
and
we'll
miss
seeing
you
every
monday
for
a
couple
of
days
and
see
you
all
on
on
january.
The
third.
I
guess
it
is
that
come
in
so
great
year,
and
thanks
for
everybody
and
just
love
working
with
everybody
here.
F
Well,
I
don't
want
to
extend
the
meeting
so
I'll,
be
I'll,
be
quick,
okay,
but
thank
you
mayor,
first
of
all
for
the
opportunity
to
say
a
few
words
here
at
the
end
of
the
year,
I'll
probably
say
some
similar
things
in
terms
of
so
proud
of
my
my
colleagues
and
the
amount
of
work
we've
been
able
to
get
done
this
year.
F
Of
course,
there's
so
much
more
work
to
be
done,
which
is
exciting
and
I
think
we're
all
anxious
to
get
going,
and
I
look
forward
to
our
retreat
that
we'll
hopefully
have,
after
the
shortly
after
the
first
of
the
year,
certainly
a
lot
of
topics
to
cover
off
there
as
well.
F
But
I
think
anyone
who
goes
back
and
looks
at
the
breadth
of
work
that
we've
been
able
to
take
on
this
past
year
even
during
the
pandemic,
is
quite
substantial
and
we've
been
able
to
do
it
in
a
way
that,
quite
quite
frankly,
I
think,
surpasses
many
expectations
prior
the
to
the
pandemic,
hitting
it
it's
just
it's
just
it's
just
it's
great
work
and
and
and
yes
as
councilors,
I
think
we've
had
disagreements
at
times,
but
we've
certainly
always
been
able
to
come
together
and
either
come
together
to
amend
something
or
agree
to
disagree.
F
But
you
know
I'm
very
proud
of
the
way
this
this
council
has
been
working
over
the
last
year
and
staff
has
done
such
a
tremendous
job,
and
the
east
main
is
just
an
example
of
that
we
made
our
goal
of
completing
east
maine
before
the
end
of
the
year.
I
was
getting
nervous
about
a
week
ago
or
two
weeks
ago,
but
we
finally
got
there.
F
So
that's
just
so
tremendous
now
on
to
wilburton
and
bell
red
and
look
look
forward
to
getting
those
as
well,
and
I
really
just
work
you
know
look
forward
to.
We
got
a
lot
of
topics
on
hand,
but
certainly
managing
the
growth
is
certainly
top
of
mind
on
every
resident
and
and
business
and
property
owner.
That's
that's
in
the
city
of
bellevue.
How
do
we
manage
the
growth
and
that
encompasses
every
issue
that
we
touch?
F
You
know
from
transportation
to
human
services,
to
you
name
it
so
looking
forward
to
addressing
that
with
with
all
of
you-
and
I
wish
all
of
you
merry
christmas
happy
holidays
happy
new
year,
and
hopefully
everyone
comes
back,
refreshed
and
ready
to
take
on
these
these
big
issues
in
the
new
year.
So
thanks
again.
I
All
right,
thank
you,
mayor,
also
not
going
to
take
a
long
time,
but
do
want
to
spread
the
thanks
to
staff,
who
I
mean
I
stopped
by
city
hall,
quite
a
bit
and
hang
out
in
city
hall,
so
I
see
the
work
that
they're
doing
and
the
energy
that
they're
putting
into
it
so
really
appreciate
all
the
all
the
time
and
attention
that
they're
putting
in
to
supporting
us
and
the
community.
I
I
also
want
to
thank
boards
and
commissions,
because,
despite
the
pandemic
and
and
and
everything
we're
committed
right
as
elected
officials,
but
they
they
are
still
showing
up
and
and
playing
an
active
role,
even
though
I
know
I
know
on
the
planet.
Commission,
some
of
some
of
our
commissioners
are
getting
to.
AC
I
The
end
of
the
rope
in
terms
of
really
could
really
use
this
holiday
break.
So
I
want
to
thank
all
the
boards
and
commissions
for
for
sticking
through
it
with
us
and
then,
of
course
want
to
thank
each
of
you
for
all
the
work
that
we've
been
able
to
achieve
looking
forward
to
next
year
and
getting
getting
back
out
into
the
community
a
bit
more.
Hopefully,
if
omacron
sort
of
stays
away,
fingers
crossed
and
no
more
variants,
but
really
excited
to
at
whatever
pace
we
can
getting
back
out
to
the
community.
I
I
will
put
one
last
plug
in,
and
that
is,
as
we
celebrate
the
holiday
season.
I
Please
do
think
about
our
unhoused
neighbors
and
our
retail
workers,
who
are
supporting
our
community
or
you
know,
hitting
hard
times,
and
you
know
really
just
extending
that
kindness
or
then
we
might
otherwise
to
the
folks
that
yeah
to
all
of
our
residents.
Thank.
G
Thank
you,
madam
mayor.
We
have
to
be
very
thankful.
Everybody
has
already
mentioned
how
much
we
are
blessed
with
the
great
staff.
You
know
who
has
always
done
a
yeoman's
work.
I
mean
they.
We
just
gone
through
this.
You
know
not
gone
through
we're
still
going
through
this
pandemic
and
and
they
really
showed
that
how
much
the
city
the
staff
have
done.
You
know
to
come
through.
You
know
with
flying
colors.
G
G
We
are
even
more
blessed,
you
know
with
the
community,
I
think
jeremy
said
you
know
the
commissions
people
who
volunteer
well,
we
have
so
many
volunteers
that
are
very
engaging
very
involved
and
we
get
our
support
and
our
input
and
communication
through
those
folks.
You
know
tremendously
and
but
more
importantly,
the
fundamental
pieces
that
we
have
a
community.
G
That's
very
involved
very
engaged
and
they're
very,
very
reasonable,
and
they
talk
to
us.
They
communicate
with
us
and
we
all
say
often
that
they
have
a
lot
of
expertise.
You
know
the
situation,
the
problems,
the
challenges
we
face.
We
all
face
together
and
we
are
the
you
know
they.
The
residents
are
the
people
that
can
help
us
to
solve
the
problems,
because
in
order
to
solve
problems,
you
have
to
understand
the
problems
not
just
understand,
but
you
have
to
experience
the
problem.
G
Then
you
can
help
to
solve
the
problem
with
all
the
people
we're
talking
about
which
we're
blessed
to
have,
and
so
we
were
blessed
not
just
for
bellevue.
The
issues
were
facing
it's
very
regional.
Now
you
know
in
nature
all
the
things
talking
about
housing,
transportation,
real
economic
development.
G
You
know
economy
unusually,
is
taking
for
granted,
because
belvedere
seems
to
be
g,
we're
so
lucky
you
always
get.
People
want
to
come
to
belgium,
or
you
know,
amazon's
moving
here
and
but
we
have
to
work
at
it.
G
It's
not
just
doesn't
happen
just
by
itself
and
it's
because
of
the
quality
of
life,
the
things
that
we
pay
attention
to
the
people
that
we
feel
that
we
have
to
you
know,
be
able
to
share
and
be
able
to
appreciate
and
enjoy
not
just
for
ourselves
of
other
people
and
for
our
future
generations.
G
So
I
think
that
we
need
to
keep
that
in
mind.
We
just
went
gone
through
thanksgiving,
so
we
have
received
a
lot
we're
blessed
and
but
we
also
give
a
lot-
and
I
think
the
people
involve
bellevue
do
that.
So
I
appreciate
it
even
today,
when
we
discover
discussed
neighborhoods,
for
example,
that's
important
the
neighborhoods,
you
know
the
city
staff
we
went
back
to
them
and
the
people
northeast
north
west
is
hey.
G
We
have
some
questions
concerns,
but
they
all
have,
you
know,
realized
what
they
can
do
because
of
the
communication
with
the
staff
through
us
to
the
council
members.
We
represent
them,
so
we
actually
are
blessed
that
we
have
the
opportunity
you
know
to
serve
them
to
work
with
them.
So
that's
all
much
up
to
say,
and
so
we'll
continue
to
be
blessed
will
continue
to
give.
G
I
think
that's
the
key,
and
so
I
say
thank
thanks
the
opportunity
to
work
with
all
of
you
and
have
a
great
great
holiday
and
have
a
great
you
know
christmas
and
have
a
happy
new
year
and
we'll
work
hard
and
we'll
continue
and
for
the
new
year
and
work
not
just
locally
or
regionally
and
everyone
that
we
have
impact.
AE
G
B
We're
no
longer
in
our
meeting.
Oh.
AD
Councilmember
yeah,
thank
you
mayor.
You
know
I
really
appreciate
working
with
my
colleagues
and
and
the
staff
and
the
community
as
well,
and
you
guys
make
it
look
easy,
even
though
we
know
it's
not
right,
everyone
is,
is
zoomed
out
trying
to
get
things
done.
So
I
really
appreciate
all
of
the
efforts
and
then
really
shop
local
support,
our
small
business.
AD
I
guess
my
my
thought
for
next
year
is
how
we
look
at
the
lessons
learned
from
this
year
and
the
the
work
products
that
we've
achieved
and
and
how
to
even
move
with
more
urgency,
streamlining
and
kind
of
lessons
learned
and
improvement.
So
thanks
everyone
and
enjoy
your
holiday
and
hopefully
some
some
well-deserved
time
off.
I
know
my
daughter's
coming
home
on
friday,
so
I'm
looking
forward
to
you
know
spending
some
time
and
just
being
with
family.
So
thanks.
B
Well
I'll
just
say
I,
I
love
this
job
and
I
appreciate
the
hard
work
that
this
entire
city
does
and
today
you
know
the
congregations
for
the
homeless
homeless
got
through
their
see.
Is
it
cu
their
conditional
use,
permit
appeal
process
without
any
opposition,
no
appeals,
and
so
their
groundbreaking
is
now
slated
for
january
and
that
just
I
think,
of
all
the
work
we've
done.
B
That's
one
of
the
best
things,
and
that
was
that
took
a
lot
of
work
from
the
council,
the
staff
and
the
community
that
community
process
was
key
getting
us
here.
So
I'm
just
so
grateful,
and
I
I
hope
you
all
have
a
good
holiday
and
I
hope
to
see
you
over
the
holidays
and
best
wishes
to
you
and
your
families.
