the information here about our awardees.

61
00:01:55,640 --> 00:01:59,640
Uh tonight I have the honor of

62
00:01:57,120 --> 00:02:01,840
recognizing two very special volunteers

63
00:01:59,640 --> 00:02:05,200
from the Buckley Senior Center with the

64
00:02:01,840 --> 00:02:07,120
K Skogan Volunteer of the Year Award.

65
00:02:05,200 --> 00:02:09,520
This award was established in

66
00:02:07,120 --> 00:02:11,240
remembrance of K Skogan, a long-time

67
00:02:09,520 --> 00:02:14,520
coordinator of the Buckley Senior

68
00:02:11,240 --> 00:02:16,760
Center, and recognizes a volunteer who

69
00:02:14,520 --> 00:02:19,240
demonstrates exceptional dedication,

70
00:02:16,760 --> 00:02:21,480
leadership, and service to our senior

71
00:02:19,240 --> 00:02:23,880
center and its members.

72
00:02:21,480 --> 00:02:25,440
For our inaugural year, the review

73
00:02:23,880 --> 00:02:28,480
committee had a large stack of

74
00:02:25,440 --> 00:02:31,360
nominations to review, and after careful

75
00:02:28,480 --> 00:02:34,800
consideration, it was decided that two

76
00:02:31,360 --> 00:02:36,040
volunteers were exceptionally deserving.

77
00:02:34,800 --> 00:02:38,720
Our first

78
00:02:36,040 --> 00:02:40,880
recipient is Maria Zaffi.

79
00:02:38,720 --> 00:02:43,160
Maria is someone who puts her heart into

80
00:02:40,880 --> 00:02:45,840
the Senior Center and its members day in

81
00:02:43,160 --> 00:02:48,320
and day out. She is always there to

82
00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:51,240
help, to listen, and to make people feel

83
00:02:48,320 --> 00:02:53,400
welcome and cared for. Her kindness and

84
00:02:51,240 --> 00:02:55,400
genuine care for others are exactly what

85
00:02:53,400 --> 00:02:57,000
makes the Senior Center such a special

86
00:02:55,400 --> 00:03:00,040
place.

87
00:02:57,000 --> 00:03:02,600
Our second recipient is Nancy Moriarty.

88
00:03:00,040 --> 00:03:04,680
Nancy has demonstrated extraordinary

89
00:03:02,600 --> 00:03:06,160
administrative leadership, both at the

90
00:03:04,680 --> 00:03:09,160
Senior Center and throughout our

91
00:03:06,160 --> 00:03:11,680
community. She is someone who steps up,

92
00:03:09,160 --> 00:03:13,400
gets things done, and is always willing

93
00:03:11,680 --> 00:03:15,160
to use her time and talents to make

94
00:03:13,400 --> 00:03:18,000
things better for others.

95
00:03:15,160 --> 00:03:20,320
Maria and Nancy represent our city and

96
00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:21,840
the Senior Center so well, both using

97
00:03:20,320 --> 00:03:24,200
their times and talents because they

98
00:03:21,840 --> 00:03:26,440
care deeply about the people and the

99
00:03:24,200 --> 00:03:29,000
community that they serve.

100
00:03:26,440 --> 00:03:31,160
On behalf of the city, the Senior

101
00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:33,800
Center, and our community,

102
00:03:31,160 --> 00:03:36,800

103
00:03:33,800 --> 00:03:39,640
Moriarty on being our first recipients

104
00:03:36,800 --> 00:03:42,200

105
00:03:39,640 --> 00:03:42,200

106
00:03:53,720 --> 00:03:56,920
Um.

107
00:03:54,440 --> 00:03:56,920
Hahaha.

108
00:03:58,160 --> 00:04:00,360
» Yes, who's guilty?

109
00:04:00,120 --> 00:04:00,960
Ready?

00:04:01,520 --> 00:04:03,920
» Go ahead, right up. Oh, we'll take your

113
00:04:03,360 --> 00:04:04,920
picture.

114
00:04:03,920 --> 00:04:06,000
» Picture of the mayor.

115
00:04:04,920 --> 00:04:08,240
» So, that way it's

116
00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:09,840
» Yep, so you can hand it to the mayor.

117
00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:10,920
» These are for me.

118
00:04:09,840 --> 00:04:13,280
» Thank you.

119
00:04:10,920 --> 00:04:16,680
» These are for you.

120
00:04:13,280 --> 00:04:19,760
These are for you.

121
00:04:16,680 --> 00:04:19,760
And these are for you.

122
00:04:20,120 --> 00:04:23,400
» No, that's all right.

123
00:04:21,440 --> 00:04:24,680
» Thank you.

124
00:04:23,400 --> 00:04:25,440
» Okay.

125
00:04:24,680 --> 00:04:29,240
» Good job, team.

126
00:04:25,440 --> 00:04:29,240
» Thank you, ladies. Thank you.

127
00:04:33,520 --> 00:04:37,760
» Hey, thank you so much.

128
00:04:35,640 --> 00:04:39,520
And I love to see you so much in the

129
00:04:37,760 --> 00:04:41,640
meeting.

130
00:04:39,520 --> 00:04:45,160
This is for you. Bless your house and

131
00:04:41,640 --> 00:04:46,560
anybody that's in your house. And I

132
00:04:45,160 --> 00:04:47,840
appreciate it.

133
00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:50,560
Thank you so much.

134
00:04:47,840 --> 00:04:50,560
» Thank you. Good night.

135
00:04:54,800 --> 00:05:01,160
» Okay, moving on to public comments.

136
00:04:58,200 --> 00:05:03,800
Uh tonight we have three opportunities

137
00:05:01,160 --> 00:05:06,080
for public comment. The first is the

138
00:05:03,800 --> 00:05:08,880
normal public comment period, and then

139
00:05:06,080 --> 00:05:11,640
also the one at the end. Thank you. But

140
00:05:08,880 --> 00:05:15,120
in the middle, we will have a public

141
00:05:11,640 --> 00:05:15,840
hearing on the PSE energy

142
00:05:15,120 --> 00:05:19,840
uh

143
00:05:15,840 --> 00:05:21,960
moratorium. So, I will ask you when you

144
00:05:19,840 --> 00:05:23,680
um when you signed up here, did you plan

145
00:05:21,960 --> 00:05:25,280
to testify?

146
00:05:23,680 --> 00:05:28,360
It looks like the only person I have

147
00:05:25,280 --> 00:05:31,120
planning to testify is Christine from

148
00:05:28,360 --> 00:05:32,880
PSE. And so, she I know wants to be

149
00:05:31,120 --> 00:05:35,800
during the public hearing. So, I will

150
00:05:32,880 --> 00:05:38,240
just move on from that unless there is

151
00:05:35,800 --> 00:05:40,440
someone who's decided

152
00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:44,080
um that did not sign up that would like

153
00:05:40,440 --> 00:05:47,000
to do public comment tonight.

154
00:05:44,080 --> 00:05:50,800
Seeing none, I'm going to move forward.

155
00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:52,600
Uh, mayor's report for tonight. Uh, the

156
00:05:50,800 --> 00:05:55,320

that council member Mazzoni and I

158
00:05:55,320 --> 00:06:00,480

uh, community values regarding

191
00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:01,320
homelessness and camping in public

192
00:07:00,240 --> 00:07:03,720
areas.

193
00:07:01,320 --> 00:07:06,160
Um, Miller Park update. So,

194
00:07:03,720 --> 00:07:07,960
uh, see, we heard recently about the

195
00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:09,919
cultural resource survey that was kind

196
00:07:07,960 --> 00:07:11,560
of taking a while. Seems like the review

197
00:07:09,919 --> 00:07:14,120
is uh, been sent was sent for

198
00:07:11,560 --> 00:07:16,680
consultation. Uh, the tribal consulting

199
00:07:14,120 --> 00:07:18,680
party a request that additional field

200
00:07:16,680 --> 00:07:21,400
work be completed. Uh, there's there was

201
00:07:18,680 --> 00:07:23,240
an issue with standing water in the

202
00:07:21,400 --> 00:07:25,840
shovel probing process that doesn't

203
00:07:23,240 --> 00:07:28,120
allow them to fully assess uh, any

204
00:07:25,840 --> 00:07:29,560
impacts. Um, so, there's unclear

205
00:07:28,120 --> 00:07:33,520
results. Uh, some might say it was clear

206
00:07:29,560 --> 00:07:35,680
as mud. Shush. Um,

207
00:07:33,520 --> 00:07:38,400
uh, youth center update. So, uh, we

208
00:07:35,680 --> 00:07:40,680
heard that recently heard that like the

209
00:07:38,400 --> 00:07:43,800
the YPV grant funding, we did not get it

210
00:07:40,680 --> 00:07:47,080
this year, which was anticipated $45,000

211
00:07:43,800 --> 00:07:49,880
$45,000 revenue that we were expecting

212
00:07:47,080 --> 00:07:51,200
and was in our our finances here.

213
00:07:49,880 --> 00:07:52,760
So, we didn't get that. So, we heard

214
00:07:51,200 --> 00:07:54,800
about um

215
00:07:52,760 --> 00:07:56,840
what kind of offsets were

216
00:07:54,800 --> 00:07:58,440
the city's looking at. There's a $7,500

217
00:07:56,840 --> 00:07:59,720
allocation that we got from Council

218
00:07:58,440 --> 00:08:01,000
member Morell.

219
00:07:59,720 --> 00:08:04,760
Uh

220
00:08:01,000 --> 00:08:07,160
$4,000 above budget for the TPCHD

221
00:08:04,760 --> 00:08:08,440
donations small grant awards at

222
00:08:07,160 --> 00:08:11,720
our 70

223
00:08:08,440 --> 00:08:13,320
7,000 but almost $8,000 above budget.

224
00:08:11,720 --> 00:08:16,680
But, there's still a big gap, almost

225
00:08:13,320 --> 00:08:18,640
$26,000 because of that missing $45,000

226
00:08:16,680 --> 00:08:20,520
grant that we didn't get. So, city's

227
00:08:18,640 --> 00:08:23,320
looking at different ways to reduce

228
00:08:20,520 --> 00:08:24,800
costs and also looking at a lot of

229
00:08:23,320 --> 00:08:27,080
different applications for grant

230
00:08:24,800 --> 00:08:29,720
funding. Some notable ones is Northcliff

231
00:08:27,080 --> 00:08:32,680
Foundation for $40,000. So, that's

232
00:08:29,720 --> 00:08:34,479
pending. Hopefully, that goes through.

233
00:08:32,680 --> 00:08:36,039
Another one is Names Foundation for

234
00:08:34,479 --> 00:08:37,560
$20,000.

235
00:08:36,039 --> 00:08:38,719
And so, there's a lot of great work and

236
00:08:37,560 --> 00:08:41,120
there's some other ones here, too, that

237
00:08:38,719 --> 00:08:42,880
don't have exact dollar figures tied to

238
00:08:41,120 --> 00:08:44,880
them, but a lot of great work being done

239
00:08:42,880 --> 00:08:47,080
by the city to to try to bridge this

240
00:08:44,880 --> 00:08:48,440
gap. We also heard about three mural

241
00:08:47,080 --> 00:08:50,440
applications that have been received and

242
00:08:48,440 --> 00:08:52,240
are under review.

243
00:08:50,440 --> 00:08:53,320
» Thank you, Council member Grave.

members represented.

260
00:09:29,120 --> 00:09:36,040
Uh their local is escaping me, but they

261
00:09:32,960 --> 00:09:38,280
um their contract is coming up. So, he's

262
00:09:36,040 --> 00:09:40,920
we will have this on our August 25th

263
00:09:38,280 --> 00:09:42,960
agenda. Share the terms of what is

264
00:09:40,920 --> 00:09:45,440

265
00:09:42,960 --> 00:09:46,520
Municipal Court, Mrs. Cash advised that

266
00:09:45,440 --> 00:09:48,200
the office is working through the

267
00:09:46,520 --> 00:09:50,320
budgeting process. It's that time of the

268
00:09:48,200 --> 00:09:52,360
year, and they're preparing for the

269
00:09:50,320 --> 00:09:57,600
implementation of new court management

270
00:09:52,360 --> 00:09:59,800
system known as Enterprise Justice.

271
00:09:57,600 --> 00:10:02,320

00:09:59,800 --> 00:10:04,160
that he has pulled the Civil Service

273
00:10:02,320 --> 00:10:06,720
list

274
00:10:04,160 --> 00:10:11,280
for entry-level police officers. So, if

275
00:10:06,720 --> 00:10:13,640
anybody doesn't know, when you apply

276
00:10:11,280 --> 00:10:16,480

So, those officers or potential officers

281
00:10:24,320 --> 00:10:28,760

» Motion carries.

327
00:12:03,480 --> 00:12:08,320
» Mayor, can I say something real quick?

328
00:12:06,240 --> 00:12:10,440
Do we should

329
00:12:08,320 --> 00:12:12,840
let Council and the audience know that

330
00:12:10,440 --> 00:12:15,600
there are some documents related to code

331
00:12:12,840 --> 00:12:17,840
updates that were stapled or as part of

332
00:12:15,600 --> 00:12:19,400
the best hearing. It's not part of the

333
00:12:17,840 --> 00:12:21,600
best hearing. Those documents are

334
00:12:19,400 --> 00:12:24,080
related to a staff report later in the

335
00:12:21,600 --> 00:12:24,080
meeting.

336
00:12:28,760 --> 00:12:34,520
» Thank you.

337
00:12:31,120 --> 00:12:36,480
Okay, so let's move on to

338
00:12:34,520 --> 00:12:39,800
public hearings.

339
00:12:36,480 --> 00:12:43,800
So tonight we have a moratorium on the

340
00:12:39,800 --> 00:12:43,800
development of a uh

341
00:12:44,480 --> 00:12:49,240
batter, is that correct? Battery.

342
00:12:46,880 --> 00:12:51,480
Oh, battery. It's just missing a Y. My

343
00:12:49,240 --> 00:12:55,760
» Sorry. That's not the right word.

344
00:12:51,480 --> 00:12:58,040
» Battery energy storage system, BESS.

345
00:12:55,760 --> 00:13:00,800
So we are going to recess the City

346
00:12:58,040 --> 00:13:03,360
Council meeting at 6:14 to

347
00:13:00,800 --> 00:13:05,280
enter into that public hearing.

348
00:13:03,360 --> 00:13:07,080
And uh

349
00:13:05,280 --> 00:13:10,680
Senior Planner Farnsworth, if you would

350
00:13:07,080 --> 00:13:10,680
come up and do your presentation.

351
00:13:13,080 --> 00:13:16,040
» Good evening, Mayor, City Council

352
00:13:14,360 --> 00:13:17,680
members. Um so I just wanted to do

353
00:13:16,040 --> 00:13:19,440
elaborate on the work that the Planning

354
00:13:17,680 --> 00:13:21,560
Commission has been doing over the month

355
00:13:19,440 --> 00:13:23,839
of July regarding the battery energy

356
00:13:21,560 --> 00:13:26,080
storage system moratorium.

357
00:13:23,839 --> 00:13:27,960
Um so on June 23rd, Council approved a

358
00:13:26,080 --> 00:13:30,200
moratorium on these battery energy

359
00:13:27,960 --> 00:13:32,400
storage systems and part of that is we

360
00:13:30,200 --> 00:13:35,280
need to have a public hearing within 60

361
00:13:32,400 --> 00:13:37,520
days of adopting that initial ordinance.

362
00:13:35,280 --> 00:13:39,720
So we we have the opportunity to spend

363
00:13:37,520 --> 00:13:41,600
two full meetings kind of

364
00:13:39,720 --> 00:13:44,040
just trying to gain an understanding of

365
00:13:41,600 --> 00:13:46,080
what these energy systems are, how they

366
00:13:44,040 --> 00:13:49,000
function and potential implications of

367
00:13:46,080 --> 00:13:51,040
for the community at large. And so after

368
00:13:49,000 --> 00:13:53,320
our initial review, we are the planning

369
00:13:51,040 --> 00:13:56,200
commission is recommending it to extend

370
00:13:53,320 --> 00:13:57,840
the moratorium for 1 year while we have

371
00:13:56,200 --> 00:14:00,160
an additional opportunity to review

372
00:13:57,840 --> 00:14:01,760
materials. And the way I've been

373
00:14:00,160 --> 00:14:03,680
thinking of it is we'll break it into

374
00:14:01,760 --> 00:14:05,840
three different sections, environmental

375
00:14:03,680 --> 00:14:07,520
concerns, emergency response and

376
00:14:05,840 --> 00:14:09,560
preparedness, and then the final one

377
00:14:07,520 --> 00:14:11,080
will be project siting.

378
00:14:09,560 --> 00:14:12,760
Which is a more a little bit more of a

379
00:14:11,080 --> 00:14:15,360
hands-on what does this actually look

380
00:14:12,760 --> 00:14:17,520
like in the community. And my goal would

381
00:14:15,360 --> 00:14:19,240
be to provide Council with quarterly

382
00:14:17,520 --> 00:14:22,760
updates so you can kind of track our

383
00:14:19,240 --> 00:14:23,760
progress while we work through it.

384
00:14:22,760 --> 00:14:26,080
» Okay.

385
00:14:23,760 --> 00:14:27,800
Thank you, Chris.

386
00:14:26,080 --> 00:14:31,000
And I believe we have a representative

387
00:14:27,800 --> 00:14:32,880
here tonight from PSE, Christine Rompa,

388
00:14:31,000 --> 00:14:35,160
who wanted to testify during the the

389
00:14:32,880 --> 00:14:36,800
hearing. So please come on up.

390
00:14:35,160 --> 00:14:38,160
» Thank you.

391
00:14:36,800 --> 00:14:40,080
Good evening, Council and esteemed

392
00:14:38,160 --> 00:14:42,040
Mayor. My name is Christine Rompa and I

393
00:14:40,080 --> 00:14:44,320
work for Puget Sound Energy as a local

394
00:14:42,040 --> 00:14:47,120
government affairs representative.

395
00:14:44,320 --> 00:14:49,360
For over 150 years, PSE has served the

396
00:14:47,120 --> 00:14:52,000
region by providing safe, reliable

397
00:14:49,360 --> 00:14:55,000
energy for our customers. Due to a

398
00:14:52,000 --> 00:14:57,160
variety of factors, including population

399
00:14:55,000 --> 00:14:59,520
growth, electrification,

400
00:14:57,160 --> 00:15:01,520
and changes in state law, we are now

401
00:14:59,520 --> 00:15:04,000
going through the most transformational

402
00:15:01,520 --> 00:15:06,520
time in our history and battery energy

403
00:15:04,000 --> 00:15:09,520
storage systems will play a critical

404
00:15:06,520 --> 00:15:12,160
role in helping PSE successfully meet

405
00:15:09,520 --> 00:15:14,360
this challenge. Demand for electricity

406
00:15:12,160 --> 00:15:17,400
is growing, especially during summer

407
00:15:14,360 --> 00:15:19,960
heat waves and in winter cold snaps.

408
00:15:17,400 --> 00:15:22,600
During those peak times, PSE can use the

409
00:15:19,960 --> 00:15:24,600
energy stored in batteries to continue

410
00:15:22,600 --> 00:15:27,800
serving our customers instead of buying

411
00:15:24,600 --> 00:15:30,160
expensive power on the market. BESs are

412
00:15:27,800 --> 00:15:32,960
an important part of PSE's plans to

413
00:15:30,160 --> 00:15:34,680
provide the reliable power our customers

414
00:15:32,960 --> 00:15:37,520
expect while delivering more of the

415
00:15:34,680 --> 00:15:39,840
clean energy required by Washington's

416
00:15:37,520 --> 00:15:41,920
aggressive clean energy laws.

417
00:15:39,840 --> 00:15:44,400
Batteries have the potential to solve

418
00:15:41,920 --> 00:15:46,680
energy challenges we all care about,

419
00:15:44,400 --> 00:15:48,720
like providing temporary backup power

420
00:15:46,680 --> 00:15:50,720
when you experience an outage, to

421
00:15:48,720 --> 00:15:53,480
helping businesses manage their power

422
00:15:50,720 --> 00:15:55,320
use. Installing BESs helps employ men

423
00:15:53,480 --> 00:15:57,200
and women in the building trades who

424
00:15:55,320 --> 00:15:58,480
live here in Buckley and throughout our

425
00:15:57,200 --> 00:16:00,720
region.

426
00:15:58,480 --> 00:16:03,240
PSE has always been a safety-first

427
00:16:00,720 --> 00:16:06,360
company. Safety for our customers,

428
00:16:03,240 --> 00:16:07,880
employees, and our systems is paramount

429
00:16:06,360 --> 00:16:09,760
to PSE.

430
00:16:07,880 --> 00:16:12,120
Our state's energy code has safety

431
00:16:09,760 --> 00:16:14,280
regulations for these systems that were

432
00:16:12,120 --> 00:16:16,760
developed by first responders,

433
00:16:14,280 --> 00:16:19,200
electrical and chemical engineers, and

434
00:16:16,760 --> 00:16:20,880
other key subject matter experts in the

435
00:16:19,200 --> 00:16:23,560
energy industry.

436
00:16:20,880 --> 00:16:25,880
PSE requires any type of BESs facility

437
00:16:23,560 --> 00:16:27,880
connected to our system to meet

438
00:16:25,880 --> 00:16:30,800
stringent multi-layered safety

439
00:16:27,880 --> 00:16:32,839
standards. We'd like to partner with you

440
00:16:30,800 --> 00:16:34,640
to create an ordinance that addresses

441
00:16:32,839 --> 00:16:36,520
your concerns and aligns with your

442
00:16:34,640 --> 00:16:39,680
comprehensive plan.

443
00:16:36,520 --> 00:16:42,200
CF policy 5.2 calls for the use of

444
00:16:39,680 --> 00:16:46,040
renewable energy resources to meet the

445
00:16:42,200 --> 00:16:48,440
region's energy needs. CF 5.3 promotes

446
00:16:46,040 --> 00:16:51,160
energy consumption through conservation

447
00:16:48,440 --> 00:16:53,920
and alternative energy forms to extend

448
00:16:51,160 --> 00:16:55,400
the life of existing facilities and

449
00:16:53,920 --> 00:16:57,226
infrastructure.

450
00:16:55,400 --> 00:16:59,240
BESs infrastructure can eliminate

451
00:16:57,226 --> 00:17:02,200
[clears throat] the need to build costly

452
00:16:59,240 --> 00:17:04,400
new overhead transmissions lines, which

453
00:17:02,200 --> 00:17:05,800
can cost two to three million dollars

454
00:17:04,400 --> 00:17:09,040
per mile.

455
00:17:05,800 --> 00:17:11,680
CF 5.4 supports investments in

456
00:17:09,040 --> 00:17:13,720
low-carbon energy sources.

457
00:17:11,680 --> 00:17:15,760
Buckley's BESs moratorium provides an

458
00:17:13,720 --> 00:17:18,319
opportunity to address community

459
00:17:15,760 --> 00:17:20,760
concerns through a thoughtful, thorough,

460
00:17:18,319 --> 00:17:23,160
and fact-based review of current best

461
00:17:20,760 --> 00:17:25,120
technology. We believe that you will

462
00:17:23,160 --> 00:17:27,520
find that best systems provide

463
00:17:25,120 --> 00:17:29,920
compelling benefits for grid reliability

464
00:17:27,520 --> 00:17:32,200
in Buckley, and that best safety has

465
00:17:29,920 --> 00:17:34,240
dramatically improved over the past

466
00:17:32,200 --> 00:17:36,240
several years. We are hopeful your

467
00:17:34,240 --> 00:17:39,520
deliberations will provide a permitting

468
00:17:36,240 --> 00:17:42,160
pathway for residential, commercial, and

469
00:17:39,520 --> 00:17:44,640
utility-scale bests so we can continue

470
00:17:42,160 --> 00:17:46,240
providing safe, reliable, and clean

471
00:17:44,640 --> 00:17:48,840
energies

472
00:17:46,240 --> 00:17:50,760
to customers in Buckley. PSE looks

473
00:17:48,840 --> 00:17:51,720
forward to working with you. Thank you

474
00:17:50,760 --> 00:17:52,280
very much.

475
00:17:51,720 --> 00:17:54,760
» Thank you.

476
00:17:52,280 --> 00:17:54,760
» Thank you.

477
00:17:55,080 --> 00:17:58,920
» Is there anyone else who did not sign up

478
00:17:56,960 --> 00:18:02,840
that wants to speak during the public

479
00:17:58,920 --> 00:18:04,200
hearing related to this moratorium?

480
00:18:02,840 --> 00:18:06,520
Seeing none,

481
00:18:04,200 --> 00:18:09,720
I will then uh

482
00:18:06,520 --> 00:18:12,360
reconvene the

reconvene Excuse me. I will close the

484
00:18:12,360 --> 00:18:18,360
public hearing at 6:19 and reconvene the

485
00:18:15,520 --> 00:18:18,360
council meeting.

486
00:18:19,080 --> 00:18:22,520
Okay. So,

487
00:18:20,520 --> 00:18:25,480
ready for ordinances when you are.

488
00:18:22,520 --> 00:18:28,200
» Ordinance number 08-26

Uh so, what I what we'll do at this

499
00:18:51,720 --> 00:18:57,120
point is then ask Director Hines to come

500
00:18:54,480 --> 00:19:02,480
up and and answer any questions that you

501
00:18:57,120 --> 00:19:02,480
may have of her related to this.

502
00:19:05,680 --> 00:19:07,760
Now, I'm Councilmember Woodbury.

503
00:19:07,400 --> 00:19:08,560
» No.

504
00:19:07,760 --> 00:19:11,160
» No.

» I just there's no question. I just like

513
00:19:24,360 --> 00:19:28,240
to state that this happens every year.

514
00:19:26,120 --> 00:19:29,520
We go to the mid

515
00:19:28,240 --> 00:19:31,840
part of the budget and we have to

516
00:19:29,520 --> 00:19:34,760
adjust. We have to

517
00:19:31,840 --> 00:19:36,920
This is we cannot run a deficit or a

518
00:19:34,760 --> 00:19:38,000
debt like the federal government

519
00:19:36,920 --> 00:19:40,440
or like

520
00:19:38,000 --> 00:19:43,560
other places. We have to live within our

521
00:19:40,440 --> 00:19:45,840
means and this was this is a

Okay, so it has been moved and seconded.

529
00:19:58,000 --> 00:20:00,040
All those in favor?

530
00:19:58,640 --> 00:20:01,440

» Okay.

553
00:20:30,640 --> 00:20:34,480
Good evening everybody. Um

We are

555
00:20:36,880 --> 00:20:39,929
Let's first I'll give you some

556
00:20:38,280 --> 00:20:40,680
background. Um

557

» [clears throat]

558
00:20:40,680 --> 00:20:48,920
» Back in April of 2025

559
00:20:44,280 --> 00:20:51,880
um the city initiated a intersection

560
00:20:48,920 --> 00:20:54,080
evaluation for the intersection of Main

561
00:20:51,880 --> 00:20:56,520
Street and A Street. And the intent of

562
00:20:54,080 --> 00:20:59,880
the evaluation was to determine whether

563
00:20:56,520 --> 00:21:01,960
it was warranted to convert it from the

564
00:20:59,880 --> 00:21:03,080
existing two-way stop to a four-way

565
00:21:01,960 --> 00:21:06,560
stop.

566
00:21:03,080 --> 00:21:09,480
And there are there is a warrant

567
00:21:06,560 --> 00:21:11,560
analysis. There are five criteria that

568
00:21:09,480 --> 00:21:13,400
you go through on these

569
00:21:11,560 --> 00:21:15,560
um

570
00:21:13,400 --> 00:21:18,320
evaluations, and I won't go through

571
00:21:15,560 --> 00:21:20,400
every one, but two of the five warrants

572
00:21:18,320 --> 00:21:22,600
were met, meaning

573
00:21:20,400 --> 00:21:25,400
um that

574
00:21:22,600 --> 00:21:28,480
the recommendation is yes to convert it

575
00:21:25,400 --> 00:21:31,640
to a four-way stop. Um the significant

576
00:21:28,480 --> 00:21:34,760
issues, one was for southbound traffic

577
00:21:31,640 --> 00:21:37,480
on A Street. There is a sight distance

578
00:21:34,760 --> 00:21:39,880
issue looking east.

579
00:21:37,480 --> 00:21:42,480
So, as you approach

580
00:21:39,880 --> 00:21:44,920
from the north, and you are looking to

581
00:21:42,480 --> 00:21:46,240
your left, there's a building right

582
00:21:44,920 --> 00:21:47,760
there.

583
00:21:46,240 --> 00:21:51,240
And it's hard to see.

584
00:21:47,760 --> 00:21:52,720
So, the um official

585
00:21:51,240 --> 00:21:57,440
um

586
00:21:52,720 --> 00:22:01,000
sight distance required there is 250 ft.

587
00:21:57,440 --> 00:22:02,960
What is available is 160 ft.

588
00:22:01,000 --> 00:22:06,040
So, it's not available.

589
00:22:02,960 --> 00:22:08,480
Um and what drivers do is they stop at

590
00:22:06,040 --> 00:22:11,040
the stop bar, some of them, and then

591
00:22:08,480 --> 00:22:12,760
they creep forward in order to see

592
00:22:11,040 --> 00:22:14,760
before they go.

593
00:22:12,760 --> 00:22:17,600
And when you creep forward, they enter

594
00:22:14,760 --> 00:22:20,960
into a crosswalk, which is where people

595
00:22:17,600 --> 00:22:24,520
walk. So, it's an unsafe situation. And

596
00:22:20,960 --> 00:22:26,600
then the second major um

597
00:22:24,520 --> 00:22:28,160
item pointed out in the analysis that

598
00:22:26,600 --> 00:22:30,760
was conducted

599
00:22:28,160 --> 00:22:32,640
is that um the presence of heavy

600
00:22:30,760 --> 00:22:34,640
pedestrian traffic, just cuz of the

601
00:22:32,640 --> 00:22:37,920
proximity of the schools.

602
00:22:34,640 --> 00:22:40,960
Um it talked about uh account of 71

603
00:22:37,920 --> 00:22:42,440
pedestrians during a peak hour period,

604
00:22:40,960 --> 00:22:45,480
which

605
00:22:42,440 --> 00:22:47,160
um is significant.

606
00:22:45,480 --> 00:22:49,760
And um

607
00:22:47,160 --> 00:22:51,640
so, the recommendation is to convert it

608
00:22:49,760 --> 00:22:53,520
to a four-way stop.

609
00:22:51,640 --> 00:22:56,840
Um

610
00:22:53,520 --> 00:23:00,120
there are some drawbacks that I want you

611
00:22:56,840 --> 00:23:02,440
guys to know about. And what the

612
00:23:00,120 --> 00:23:04,480
negative impact of making it a four-way

613
00:23:02,440 --> 00:23:09,840
stop is that

614
00:23:04,480 --> 00:23:12,280
um there will be queuing and um backups

615
00:23:09,840 --> 00:23:16,680
on Main Street because everybody's used

616
00:23:12,280 --> 00:23:16,680
to going straight. So, when

617
00:23:17,200 --> 00:23:19,720
uh

618
00:23:17,880 --> 00:23:22,240
during the I think it's more in the PM

619
00:23:19,720 --> 00:23:25,760
peak hour or well, it it's usually

620
00:23:22,240 --> 00:23:28,680
during um after-school pickup. They're

621
00:23:25,760 --> 00:23:31,840
going to be coming west on Main

622
00:23:28,680 --> 00:23:36,720
and they're going to have to stop now.

623
00:23:31,840 --> 00:23:38,800
So, the backup that's anticipated

624
00:23:36,720 --> 00:23:40,680
is not as long as the backup that's

625
00:23:38,800 --> 00:23:42,880
currently on Main Street for people

626
00:23:40,680 --> 00:23:45,040
coming south, but

627
00:23:42,880 --> 00:23:49,320
it's like a lot of things. It's not a

628
00:23:45,040 --> 00:23:51,680
perfect solution, but um it is um our

629
00:23:49,320 --> 00:23:54,800
recommendation that the city go forward

630
00:23:51,680 --> 00:23:57,960
with it and because the safety of the

631
00:23:54,800 --> 00:23:59,480
pedestrians and the um the overall uh

632
00:23:57,960 --> 00:24:01,280
it's called level of service, the

633
00:23:59,480 --> 00:24:03,400
operation of the intersection is

634
00:24:01,280 --> 00:24:04,800
enhanced by switching it to a four-way

635
00:24:03,400 --> 00:24:07,320
stop.

636
00:24:04,800 --> 00:24:09,920
Um so,

637
00:24:07,320 --> 00:24:13,480
if you have any questions,

638
00:24:09,920 --> 00:24:13,480
I can try to answer them.

639
00:24:14,560 --> 00:24:21,000
» This This just for you guys to know,

640
00:24:17,600 --> 00:24:23,560
this isn't a like a

641
00:24:21,000 --> 00:24:25,320
formal voting deal, but it's looking for

642
00:24:23,560 --> 00:24:27,200
a head nod from council on which

643
00:24:25,320 --> 00:24:30,800
direction we should

644
00:24:27,200 --> 00:24:33,880
move forward with. Um there is Dom, if

645
00:24:30,800 --> 00:24:36,400
you correct me if I'm wrong, but once we

646
00:24:33,880 --> 00:24:39,760
do these evaluations

647
00:24:36,400 --> 00:24:41,400
and there is a

648
00:24:39,760 --> 00:24:44,680
recommendation,

649
00:24:41,400 --> 00:24:46,280
we do carry a certain liability moving

650
00:24:44,680 --> 00:24:47,840
forward by not taking that

651
00:24:46,280 --> 00:24:51,360
recommendation.

652
00:24:47,840 --> 00:24:53,720
Meaning if we leave it as is and

653
00:24:51,360 --> 00:24:56,080
we have a

654
00:24:53,720 --> 00:24:57,400
a recommendation and somebody gets hit

655
00:24:56,080 --> 00:24:59,440
there, there is a certain amount of

656
00:24:57,400 --> 00:25:01,640
liability to the city.

657
00:24:59,440 --> 00:25:01,640
» Yeah.

658
00:25:02,160 --> 00:25:07,172
» For the record, uh Engineer Miller is

659
00:25:04,520 --> 00:25:07,840
nodding his head yes.

660
00:25:07,172 --> 00:25:10,720
» [laughter]

661
00:25:07,840 --> 00:25:10,720
» Yes. I

662
00:25:11,800 --> 00:25:16,360
» Councilmember Smith.

663
00:25:13,920 --> 00:25:17,920
» This was brought up by me

664
00:25:16,360 --> 00:25:19,400
from a lot of

665
00:25:17,920 --> 00:25:22,400
uh

666
00:25:19,400 --> 00:25:22,400
information.

667
00:25:22,920 --> 00:25:28,440
People already try to treat that as a

668
00:25:25,040 --> 00:25:30,440
four-way stop. Sometimes it's it's

669
00:25:28,440 --> 00:25:32,480
but there's a lot of stuff going there.

670
00:25:30,440 --> 00:25:35,920
City Hall,

671
00:25:32,480 --> 00:25:39,000
the hair salon, Scoop,

672
00:25:35,920 --> 00:25:41,600
Anchor House, kids walking to school,

673
00:25:39,000 --> 00:25:43,280
and the back up has to be the trade-off

674
00:25:41,600 --> 00:25:45,640
for the people who've been screaming

675
00:25:43,280 --> 00:25:48,480
about this intersection.

676
00:25:45,640 --> 00:25:51,880
And uh just my um

677
00:25:48,480 --> 00:25:53,360
educated guess is there's about 300

678
00:25:51,880 --> 00:25:57,280
pickups

679
00:25:53,360 --> 00:26:00,600
and drop-offs in the morning and

680
00:25:57,280 --> 00:26:03,840
drop-offs and pickups in the afternoon

681
00:26:00,600 --> 00:26:05,600
from there. Not everybody's going

682
00:26:03,840 --> 00:26:08,640
west.

683
00:26:05,600 --> 00:26:10,880
However, to make that safer, this is

684
00:26:08,640 --> 00:26:12,960
what they've been asking for, and this

685
00:26:10,880 --> 00:26:14,360
is what it's going to have to be.

686
00:26:12,960 --> 00:26:15,520
And I think it's going to be safer for

687
00:26:14,360 --> 00:26:17,320
everyone,

688
00:26:15,520 --> 00:26:19,200
especially

689
00:26:17,320 --> 00:26:21,200
with all the other challenges we have

690
00:26:19,200 --> 00:26:22,960
with the e-scooters and all this other

691
00:26:21,200 --> 00:26:24,840
stuff.

692
00:26:22,960 --> 00:26:26,600
Four-way stop,

693
00:26:24,840 --> 00:26:28,720
everybody takes a

694
00:26:26,600 --> 00:26:32,920
left and right and go. And let's hope

695
00:26:28,720 --> 00:26:34,320
that there's we can eliminate issues.

696
00:26:32,920 --> 00:26:37,080
» I will say too, on behalf of the

697
00:26:34,320 --> 00:26:38,920
business community, I did reach out to

698
00:26:37,080 --> 00:26:40,640
uh President Taylor Stark, who said he

699
00:26:38,920 --> 00:26:43,920
could not be here tonight, but wanted

700
00:26:40,640 --> 00:26:46,280
Council to know that that he is fully in

701
00:26:43,920 --> 00:26:49,280
support of this. I also spoke to Bill

702
00:26:46,280 --> 00:26:52,080
and April Ratray at the Scoop. They said

703
00:26:49,280 --> 00:26:54,440
there's been numerous times uh that they

704
00:26:52,080 --> 00:26:56,600
have picked up car parts in their

705
00:26:54,440 --> 00:26:58,840
parking area there because people get

706
00:26:56,600 --> 00:27:00,840
into accidents and one day he said it

707
00:26:58,840 --> 00:27:02,880
was a bumper, another was another car

708
00:27:00,840 --> 00:27:05,240
part in their parking lot when they came

709
00:27:02,880 --> 00:27:06,960
in on the following day. So, he's very

710
00:27:05,240 --> 00:27:09,640
also supportive of this and he's right

711
00:27:06,960 --> 00:27:11,360
there on that.

712
00:27:09,640 --> 00:27:14,600
» There's two quick things I'd add. One, I

713
00:27:11,360 --> 00:27:17,800
believe Okay. I believe the timing is

714
00:27:14,600 --> 00:27:20,040
intended if there's the head nod

715
00:27:17,800 --> 00:27:22,440
to be done toward the end of the month,

716
00:27:20,040 --> 00:27:26,600
so before school starts.

717
00:27:22,440 --> 00:27:26,600
And the second thing I would say is

718
00:27:27,040 --> 00:27:33,960
there is the potential for other effects

719
00:27:30,000 --> 00:27:36,200
besides right here at A and Main. So, we

720
00:27:33,960 --> 00:27:39,640
are going to have our eye on two

721
00:27:36,200 --> 00:27:40,800
specific other intersections being C and

722
00:27:39,640 --> 00:27:43,200
Main

723
00:27:40,800 --> 00:27:44,600
and C and Mason.

724
00:27:43,200 --> 00:27:47,200
Um

725
00:27:44,600 --> 00:27:50,080
you haven't authorized

726
00:27:47,200 --> 00:27:53,000
those formal studies to happen,

727
00:27:50,080 --> 00:27:55,560
but we didn't think it was a fair

728
00:27:53,000 --> 00:27:58,240
representation to

729
00:27:55,560 --> 00:28:01,120
evaluate those intersections now because

730
00:27:58,240 --> 00:28:03,800
they will be very much affected by this

731
00:28:01,120 --> 00:28:08,400
conversion if it happens. So, it's

732
00:28:03,800 --> 00:28:10,640
better data to figure out um

733
00:28:08,400 --> 00:28:12,880
because human nature is

734
00:28:10,640 --> 00:28:16,480
if I'm stopping too long on Main,

735
00:28:12,880 --> 00:28:19,160
I'm finding another way. And so

736
00:28:16,480 --> 00:28:21,560
that can have ripple effects, which

737
00:28:19,160 --> 00:28:23,440
we're sensitive to and want to

738
00:28:21,560 --> 00:28:26,200
to make sure um

739
00:28:23,440 --> 00:28:28,600
that that is accommodated as well. So,

740
00:28:26,200 --> 00:28:31,640
that will be our Keep our eyes out for

741
00:28:28,600 --> 00:28:34,400
that as well. So, just I don't

742
00:28:31,640 --> 00:28:35,680
Let me step on your toes for that.

743
00:28:34,400 --> 00:28:36,560
» That's what I was going to ask, but one

744
00:28:35,680 --> 00:28:38,440
of the

745
00:28:36,560 --> 00:28:39,480
since I've been on the council and on

746
00:28:38,440 --> 00:28:42,120
the

747
00:28:39,480 --> 00:28:44,760
the utility commission, the biggest

748
00:28:42,120 --> 00:28:46,120
complaint I've gotten is A Street

749
00:28:44,760 --> 00:28:48,200
that intersection. Every time someone

750
00:28:46,120 --> 00:28:50,560
gets in a wreck, they send it

751
00:28:48,200 --> 00:28:52,080
send it to us about the what can we do

752
00:28:50,560 --> 00:28:54,560
to make it a four-way stop? And that's

753
00:28:52,080 --> 00:28:57,440
what initiated the

754
00:28:54,560 --> 00:28:59,080
study in 2025 for part of it.

755
00:28:57,440 --> 00:29:00,720
So, I mean, I really don't think there's

756
00:28:59,080 --> 00:29:03,400
much of an option not to put a four-way

757
00:29:00,720 --> 00:29:03,400
stop there.

758
00:29:03,720 --> 00:29:08,160
» So, I'm hearing council support.

759
00:29:06,120 --> 00:29:09,680
So, we will reach out to

760
00:29:08,160 --> 00:29:12,120
» We will reach out Yeah, we'll reach out

761
00:29:09,680 --> 00:29:15,360
to the school district. We'll get stuff

762
00:29:12,120 --> 00:29:17,280
out on social media, website.

763
00:29:15,360 --> 00:29:18,040
Plenty of advanced warning that this

764
00:29:17,280 --> 00:29:20,800
will happen.

765
00:29:18,040 --> 00:29:23,440
» Right. And Chris, you mentioned to me

766
00:29:20,800 --> 00:29:25,840
today that there is a process for we put

767
00:29:23,440 --> 00:29:28,480
this in that there will be signage up

768
00:29:25,840 --> 00:29:29,080
that says there's a a change in

769
00:29:28,480 --> 00:29:30,360
» Traffic or

770
00:29:29,080 --> 00:29:31,040
» Yeah, John, do you want to speak to

771
00:29:30,360 --> 00:29:32,600
that?

772
00:29:31,040 --> 00:29:33,160
» Speak with Speak to what that looks

773
00:29:32,600 --> 00:29:35,280
like.

774
00:29:33,160 --> 00:29:37,040
» Yep, that's that's an advanced sign.

775
00:29:35,280 --> 00:29:39,360
It's approximately 100 ft in advance.

776
00:29:37,040 --> 00:29:42,000
They are orange signs, so they they look

777
00:29:39,360 --> 00:29:44,040
like construction signs, but it is a

778
00:29:42,000 --> 00:29:44,800
traffic modification.

779
00:29:44,040 --> 00:29:47,200
Um

780
00:29:44,800 --> 00:29:49,840
The requirement is that stays up for a

781
00:29:47,200 --> 00:29:53,200
month, but cities municipalities can

782
00:29:49,840 --> 00:29:54,680
decide to keep it longer if

783
00:29:53,200 --> 00:29:57,640
I don't know, people don't get the hint.

784
00:29:54,680 --> 00:29:59,680
You can leave it up for 2 months, but um

785
00:29:57,640 --> 00:30:02,840
And then, our recommendation is that be

786
00:29:59,680 --> 00:30:05,960
done in all four directions even though

787
00:30:02,840 --> 00:30:07,720
the stop sign's not changing for A,

788
00:30:05,960 --> 00:30:10,800
it's still is notifying them that, "Hey,

789
00:30:07,720 --> 00:30:11,920
this intersection's changing." So,

790
00:30:10,800 --> 00:30:13,200
Go ahead. Oh.

791
00:30:11,920 --> 00:30:16,120
» No, I was just going to ask you, does

792
00:30:13,200 --> 00:30:17,560
that impact leaving cars? If we put a

793
00:30:16,120 --> 00:30:19,520
stop sign there, does that impact our

794
00:30:17,560 --> 00:30:21,320
handicap stalls?

795
00:30:19,520 --> 00:30:22,520
That was the only thing I seen that.

796
00:30:21,320 --> 00:30:24,080
» Uh

797
00:30:22,520 --> 00:30:25,440
» Because you can't park within 25 ft of

798
00:30:24,080 --> 00:30:27,600
the stop sign, right?

799
00:30:25,440 --> 00:30:29,600
» We may have to move it.

800
00:30:27,600 --> 00:30:31,520
They act They handicap stall.

801
00:30:29,600 --> 00:30:33,720
» They may have to shift the handicap

802
00:30:31,520 --> 00:30:33,720
» Yeah.

803
00:30:35,240 --> 00:30:40,880
» Council member Bergerson.

804
00:30:37,080 --> 00:30:42,200
So, the stop signs that we have on

805
00:30:40,880 --> 00:30:43,800
Brandy Street

806
00:30:42,200 --> 00:30:46,280
» Sure, flashing lights.

807
00:30:43,800 --> 00:30:48,600
» Are those much more expensive than just

808
00:30:46,280 --> 00:30:51,640
a regular stop sign? Would it be

809
00:30:48,600 --> 00:30:52,760
» So, those run

810
00:30:51,640 --> 00:30:54,280
I I

811
00:30:52,760 --> 00:30:55,680
they're going to be between $800 and

812
00:30:54,280 --> 00:30:57,520
$1,000.

813
00:30:55,680 --> 00:30:58,240
» Compared to

814
00:30:57,520 --> 00:30:59,880
» Uh

815
00:30:58,240 --> 00:31:02,200
Councilmember Arsenao might have a

816
00:30:59,880 --> 00:31:04,400
better idea what a normal stop sign

817
00:31:02,200 --> 00:31:05,640
costs, but couple hundred bucks, 300

818
00:31:04,400 --> 00:31:08,080
bucks, 400 bucks.

819
00:31:05,640 --> 00:31:10,200
» Just I'm just thinking that

820
00:31:08,080 --> 00:31:11,880
with the big change

821
00:31:10,200 --> 00:31:14,080
never having a four-way stop there

822
00:31:11,880 --> 00:31:16,040
before, those with the lights might be

823
00:31:14,080 --> 00:31:18,560
» You you can see them from a long ways

824
00:31:16,040 --> 00:31:19,960
away. It might be worth the extra money

825
00:31:18,560 --> 00:31:23,080
to

826
00:31:19,960 --> 00:31:23,080
make them flash.

827
00:31:28,000 --> 00:31:34,480
» Councilmember Wohlfeil?

828
00:31:31,280 --> 00:31:36,600
Councilmember Messina? Thumbs up. Okay.

829
00:31:34,480 --> 00:31:38,880
Flashing lights, four-way stop it is. We

830
00:31:36,600 --> 00:31:39,840
will move forward. We'll note that.

831
00:31:38,880 --> 00:31:41,640
» Thank you.

832
00:31:39,840 --> 00:31:44,040
» This real quick, I don't want to put our

833
00:31:41,640 --> 00:31:45,560
police department on the spot, but do

834
00:31:44,040 --> 00:31:47,320
they have Does the police chief or

835
00:31:45,560 --> 00:31:49,240
assistant chief have any comments to

836
00:31:47,320 --> 00:31:50,560
make?

837
00:31:49,240 --> 00:31:52,080
» No, I I think

838
00:31:50,560 --> 00:31:52,680
» Please come to the microphone. Thank

839
00:31:52,080 --> 00:31:54,480
you.

840
00:31:52,680 --> 00:31:57,200
» I don't mean to put you on the spot, but

841
00:31:54,480 --> 00:31:59,120
» Yeah, no, just the

842
00:31:57,200 --> 00:32:00,720
it's plugging a hole, right? And so,

843
00:31:59,120 --> 00:32:03,480
that's what I wanted Council to be aware

844
00:32:00,720 --> 00:32:05,320
of. You're plugging a hole here, but we

845
00:32:03,480 --> 00:32:06,840
it will likely create problems on our

846
00:32:05,320 --> 00:32:08,840
side streets.

847
00:32:06,840 --> 00:32:11,640
Um there's other intersections, like Don

848
00:32:08,840 --> 00:32:13,000
said, that need to be addressed. Um

849
00:32:11,640 --> 00:32:16,360
and one of them

850
00:32:13,000 --> 00:32:18,720
not even one we talked about is Spiketon

851
00:32:16,360 --> 00:32:21,760
and Ryan Road.

852
00:32:18,720 --> 00:32:23,160
That intersection in the last 2 months,

853
00:32:21,760 --> 00:32:25,600
we've had four accidents at

854
00:32:23,160 --> 00:32:28,000
intersection, where we've had zero at A

855
00:32:25,600 --> 00:32:29,640
and Main. And so,

856
00:32:28,000 --> 00:32:31,120
um we can attribute that to probably

857
00:32:29,640 --> 00:32:32,800
speed

858
00:32:31,120 --> 00:32:34,920
coming down Ryan Road.

859
00:32:32,800 --> 00:32:37,400
So, a shift in speed limit from Ryan

860
00:32:34,920 --> 00:32:39,480
Road could help that intersection. But

861
00:32:37,400 --> 00:32:41,680
also a four-way stop. And so, if the

862
00:32:39,480 --> 00:32:43,760
council wants to do an evaluation,

863
00:32:41,680 --> 00:32:45,320
that's my suggestion there. So, cuz

864
00:32:43,760 --> 00:32:46,640
we're getting a lot of accidents there.

865
00:32:45,320 --> 00:32:48,960
But, you will have we will have other

866
00:32:46,640 --> 00:32:51,960
issues that will we'll need to address.

867
00:32:48,960 --> 00:32:54,800
And And Dom was very clear in that, you

868
00:32:51,960 --> 00:32:56,920
know, it's going to impact side streets.

869
00:32:54,800 --> 00:32:58,840
Uh specifically, there's a lot of kids

870
00:32:56,920 --> 00:33:00,800
that walk down Mason and those things.

871
00:32:58,840 --> 00:33:04,080
And so,

872
00:33:00,800 --> 00:33:06,000
cars are going to skirt Main Street, so

873
00:33:04,080 --> 00:33:08,280
they don't have to stop.

874
00:33:06,000 --> 00:33:09,480
And they might head down Mason or C

875
00:33:08,280 --> 00:33:11,040
Street.

876
00:33:09,480 --> 00:33:13,760
That could turn into a raceway. So,

877
00:33:11,040 --> 00:33:15,160
that's going to be a big big impact is C

878
00:33:13,760 --> 00:33:18,400
and Mason is going to need to be

879
00:33:15,160 --> 00:33:20,920
addressed next, I would believe.

880
00:33:18,400 --> 00:33:22,720
» Chief, you brought to my attention what

881
00:33:20,920 --> 00:33:26,240
you alluded to today, which I think is a

882
00:33:22,720 --> 00:33:28,920
very valid point and no cost involved

883
00:33:26,240 --> 00:33:30,880
other than us preparing an ordinance,

884
00:33:28,920 --> 00:33:35,040
which would be, as I understand it,

885
00:33:30,880 --> 00:33:35,640
changing the speed limit on Ryan to 25.

886
00:33:35,040 --> 00:33:37,840
» All the way down.

887
00:33:35,640 --> 00:33:38,360
» All the way around. Love that. Collins,

888
00:33:37,840 --> 00:33:39,960
the whole list.

889
00:33:38,360 --> 00:33:43,760
» So, right now, it I think it adjusts

890
00:33:39,960 --> 00:33:45,800
right at Belvins. So, so, we probably

891
00:33:43,760 --> 00:33:48,320
Dom should weigh in on the cost of that.

892
00:33:45,800 --> 00:33:49,320
I don't know if we have to evaluate that

893
00:33:48,320 --> 00:33:51,080
or

894
00:33:49,320 --> 00:33:52,800
» Yeah. We have to do a study.

895
00:33:51,080 --> 00:33:54,640
» You do.

896
00:33:52,800 --> 00:33:54,920
So, there is some cost associated with

897
00:33:54,640 --> 00:33:57,040
it.

898
00:33:54,920 --> 00:33:59,160
» Okay. Well, we'll get more information

899
00:33:57,040 --> 00:34:01,120
on that and the cost associated and then

900
00:33:59,160 --> 00:34:03,480
we will bring that probably to

901
00:34:01,120 --> 00:34:05,480
Transportation Committee

902
00:34:03,480 --> 00:34:08,040
and see what we think.

903
00:34:05,480 --> 00:34:10,520
Thank you, Chief.

904
00:34:08,040 --> 00:34:13,360
Okay. So, yes.

905
00:34:10,520 --> 00:34:14,679
» Um I I believe um

906
00:34:13,360 --> 00:34:17,800
the

907
00:34:14,679 --> 00:34:20,679
uh speed study on Ryan and the

908
00:34:17,800 --> 00:34:23,480
intersection evaluation of Ryan and

909
00:34:20,679 --> 00:34:25,520
Spiketon can be the same study. It's

910
00:34:23,480 --> 00:34:26,879
collecting similar information. So, it

911
00:34:25,520 --> 00:34:28,513
can be a

912
00:34:26,879 --> 00:34:29,760
a twofer evaluation.

913
00:34:28,513 --> 00:34:32,360
» [laughter]

914
00:34:29,760 --> 00:34:36,159
» Well, feel feel free to use the accident

915
00:34:32,360 --> 00:34:37,120
report from the mayor's uh uh

916
00:34:36,159 --> 00:34:39,320
» Earlier this year

917
00:34:37,120 --> 00:34:41,480
» Earlier today. Get Yes, traffic

918
00:34:39,320 --> 00:34:43,080
accident. I was not at fault, for the

919
00:34:41,480 --> 00:34:45,544
record.

920
00:34:43,080 --> 00:34:45,840
» We'll see, for the record.

921
00:34:45,544 --> 00:34:48,440
» [laughter]

922
00:34:45,840 --> 00:34:52,280
» That's to be determined.

923
00:34:48,440 --> 00:34:54,639
» Well, Officer Frazier has it on camera.

924
00:34:52,280 --> 00:34:57,160
Okay, so moving on, I think we're going

925
00:34:54,639 --> 00:34:58,640
to move on to um Senior Planner

926
00:34:57,160 --> 00:35:00,360
Farnsworth

927
00:34:58,640 --> 00:35:02,920
and we're going to talk about code

928
00:35:00,360 --> 00:35:04,800
updates.

929
00:35:02,920 --> 00:35:06,920
» Okay.

930
00:35:04,800 --> 00:35:09,840
So this is our first uh code update

931
00:35:06,920 --> 00:35:11,640
package for 2026 and

932
00:35:09,840 --> 00:35:13,440
um everything included in this memo, we

933
00:35:11,640 --> 00:35:16,040
are addressing other state law

934
00:35:13,440 --> 00:35:17,880
compliance aspects and so that's really

935
00:35:16,040 --> 00:35:20,520
what this is and I'm just here to answer

936
00:35:17,880 --> 00:35:22,600
any questions you guys might have.

937
00:35:20,520 --> 00:35:24,720
Um one thing that is not in the packet,

938
00:35:22,600 --> 00:35:27,040
but I wanted to verbalize is so when we

939
00:35:24,720 --> 00:35:29,600
did our big rezone and code update in

940
00:35:27,040 --> 00:35:31,720
the first part of 2026, there was an

941
00:35:29,600 --> 00:35:35,240
oversight with one of the parcels being

942
00:35:31,720 --> 00:35:36,760
rezoned incorrectly. So 720 Park Ave,

943
00:35:35,240 --> 00:35:39,560
you guys might be more familiar with as

944
00:35:36,760 --> 00:35:41,480
Bark of the Town. Um it was originally

945
00:35:39,560 --> 00:35:43,400
zoned neighborhood mixed use and so when

946
00:35:41,480 --> 00:35:45,120
that business went in there, that was

947
00:35:43,400 --> 00:35:47,560
absolutely permitted. That's an allowed

948
00:35:45,120 --> 00:35:50,360
use. Um it was an oversight, but it was

949
00:35:47,560 --> 00:35:52,600
changed to R6000.

950
00:35:50,360 --> 00:35:54,320
And so as part of this initial update

951
00:35:52,600 --> 00:35:56,760
package, I would like to include that

952
00:35:54,320 --> 00:35:58,840
rezone to bring it into uh central mixed

953
00:35:56,760 --> 00:36:02,120
use, which will allow the business to

954
00:35:58,840 --> 00:36:02,120
continue to operate.

955
00:36:02,480 --> 00:36:07,040
» And Chris, if I understand correctly,

956
00:36:04,560 --> 00:36:09,640
NMU, when we updated the comp plan,

957
00:36:07,040 --> 00:36:11,960
everything that was NMU went to CMU.

958
00:36:09,640 --> 00:36:13,840
» Yes, went to CMU. There were a couple of

959
00:36:11,960 --> 00:36:15,560
parcels farther south that are still

960
00:36:13,840 --> 00:36:17,920
residential and will most likely

961
00:36:15,560 --> 00:36:20,440
continue to be residential. Um

962
00:36:17,920 --> 00:36:22,720
and you know, we re we rezoned

963
00:36:20,440 --> 00:36:24,000
over a hundred parcels and so we just

964
00:36:22,720 --> 00:36:26,960
did have an oversight with this

965
00:36:24,000 --> 00:36:26,960
particular one.

966
00:36:27,960 --> 00:36:33,000
» Questions? Council Member Smith.

967
00:36:29,720 --> 00:36:34,320
» I can say that uh I live close to 720

968
00:36:33,000 --> 00:36:36,160
Park

969
00:36:34,320 --> 00:36:37,440
and 760 Park.

970
00:36:36,160 --> 00:36:39,560
Um

971
00:36:37,440 --> 00:36:41,800
they have been whatever the city's

972
00:36:39,560 --> 00:36:44,720
asking them to do, they seem to be doing

973
00:36:41,800 --> 00:36:45,880
it. And I've been watching I see it

974
00:36:44,720 --> 00:36:48,760
every day.

975
00:36:45,880 --> 00:36:50,280
And I don't I don't believe

976
00:36:48,760 --> 00:36:52,680
I think they want to be in compliance.

977
00:36:50,280 --> 00:36:52,680
» Yep.

978
00:36:55,200 --> 00:37:00,200
» Chris, just for

979
00:36:58,120 --> 00:37:01,760
edification, to make sure I understand

980
00:37:00,200 --> 00:37:03,600
this correctly,

981
00:37:01,760 --> 00:37:07,400
in your update, one of the things you

982
00:37:03,600 --> 00:37:09,800
quote uh in that floor area ratio

983
00:37:07,400 --> 00:37:10,880
discussion is code from the city of

984
00:37:09,800 --> 00:37:11,320
Issaquah.

985
00:37:10,880 --> 00:37:14,040
» Yep.

986
00:37:11,320 --> 00:37:16,600
» And what would they consider the green

987
00:37:14,040 --> 00:37:19,320
necklace amenity

988
00:37:16,600 --> 00:37:21,880
that they reference?

989
00:37:19,320 --> 00:37:25,200
Item C.

990
00:37:21,880 --> 00:37:25,200
I've never heard that before.

991
00:37:32,200 --> 00:37:34,040
If you're not sure, we you can follow up

992
00:37:33,760 --> 00:37:35,760
with me.

993
00:37:34,040 --> 00:37:36,280
» Yeah, I'll I'll follow up with you about

994
00:37:35,760 --> 00:37:38,521
that.

995
00:37:36,280 --> 00:37:38,521
» Before. [clears throat]

996
00:37:40,720 --> 00:37:44,520
» Yeah, I I can follow up. Green necklace

997
00:37:42,880 --> 00:37:45,840
My My assumption would be it would be

998
00:37:44,520 --> 00:37:46,280
like a green belt.

999
00:37:45,840 --> 00:37:47,960
» Okay.

1000
00:37:46,280 --> 00:37:50,320
» Something similar to that.

1001
00:37:47,960 --> 00:37:50,320
» Okay.

1002
00:37:53,600 --> 00:37:57,600
And as Chris stated, these are

1003
00:37:55,680 --> 00:37:59,720
requirements from state law that we are

1004
00:37:57,600 --> 00:38:02,440
having to move into with unit lot

1005
00:37:59,720 --> 00:38:04,840
subdivisions and the

1006
00:38:02,440 --> 00:38:08,560
church property

1007
00:38:04,840 --> 00:38:11,080
allowances for housing on sites.

1008
00:38:08,560 --> 00:38:11,080
So.

1009
00:38:11,560 --> 00:38:15,480
That That did not come from us. That

1010
00:38:13,520 --> 00:38:18,360
came from the powers that be.

1011
00:38:15,480 --> 00:38:19,800
» Yep. And even the the ADU code updates,

1012
00:38:18,360 --> 00:38:22,240
those were just it's just tying up some

1013
00:38:19,800 --> 00:38:23,880
odds and ends. Um for example, there's a

1014
00:38:22,240 --> 00:38:26,360
section in here about the impact fee

1015
00:38:23,880 --> 00:38:28,760
reductions for the ADUs we permitted

1016
00:38:26,360 --> 00:38:30,760
since we adopted the updated code. We

1017
00:38:28,760 --> 00:38:32,360
have been following state law, so this

1018
00:38:30,760 --> 00:38:35,360
is just enshrining it in our own

1019
00:38:32,360 --> 00:38:35,360
municipal code.

1020
00:38:37,800 --> 00:38:42,200
» When can council expect to see this

1021
00:38:40,240 --> 00:38:43,080
package of code coming back to them,

1022
00:38:42,200 --> 00:38:44,200
Chris?

1023
00:38:43,080 --> 00:38:45,720
» Well,

1024
00:38:44,200 --> 00:38:47,760
I'm not getting a lot of comments here,

1025
00:38:45,720 --> 00:38:49,480
so I would like to move rather quickly

1026
00:38:47,760 --> 00:38:51,400
with getting it to getting it to the

1027
00:38:49,480 --> 00:38:53,680
Department of Commerce for their 60-day

1028
00:38:51,400 --> 00:38:57,560
review, and hopefully look for an

1029
00:38:53,680 --> 00:38:57,560
adoption sometime in October.

1030
00:38:59,040 --> 00:39:04,840
» Any concerns, council?

1031
00:39:01,760 --> 00:39:06,600
No, I'm not seeing any, Chris. Nice job.

1032
00:39:04,840 --> 00:39:09,080
» Thank you.

1033
00:39:06,600 --> 00:39:11,640
» And then finally, I'm adding Chief

1034
00:39:09,080 --> 00:39:14,200
Skogen with an update for us on a couple

1035
00:39:11,640 --> 00:39:14,200
of items.

1036
00:39:15,440 --> 00:39:19,160
» Good evening, Mayor and Council. Uh,

1037
00:39:17,280 --> 00:39:22,240
just a handful of things here to share

1038
00:39:19,160 --> 00:39:24,440
with each of you. We are in the thick of

1039
00:39:22,240 --> 00:39:26,640
fire season. We currently have a crew

1040
00:39:24,440 --> 00:39:28,200
deployed to the Little Giant fire in

1041
00:39:26,640 --> 00:39:30,080
Chelan County.

1042
00:39:28,200 --> 00:39:32,520
They're doing well. As of this morning,

1043
00:39:30,080 --> 00:39:34,400
they are in the thick of it performing

1044
00:39:32,520 --> 00:39:35,520
structure protection.

1045
00:39:34,400 --> 00:39:38,880
It looks like they'll be staying the

1046
00:39:35,520 --> 00:39:41,360
full 14 days with possibly a a swap of

1047
00:39:38,880 --> 00:39:43,440
crews occurring this Friday.

1048
00:39:41,360 --> 00:39:45,800
Um, so three personnel over there, one

1049
00:39:43,440 --> 00:39:48,120
of our volunteers, uh, is working as a

1050
00:39:45,800 --> 00:39:50,680
contract timber faller assigned to the

1051
00:39:48,120 --> 00:39:53,120
Grasshopper fire in Oregon.

1052
00:39:50,680 --> 00:39:55,320
So, while fire danger remains high here,

1053
00:39:53,120 --> 00:39:56,560
it's not as bad as other parts of the

1054
00:39:55,320 --> 00:39:57,120
state,

1055
00:39:56,560 --> 00:39:59,600
um,

1056
00:39:57,120 --> 00:40:02,560
but we did put out on our social media

1057
00:39:59,600 --> 00:40:04,720
earlier today that because of the

1058
00:40:02,560 --> 00:40:07,720
continued dry pattern,

1059
00:40:04,720 --> 00:40:10,600
a week from or Monday, August 17th,

1060
00:40:07,720 --> 00:40:13,440
we're going to join Pierce County and

1061
00:40:10,600 --> 00:40:14,880
ban all outdoor fires until further

1062
00:40:13,440 --> 00:40:16,240
notice.

1063
00:40:14,880 --> 00:40:17,960
So,

1064
00:40:16,240 --> 00:40:20,400
it's [clears throat] very confusing for

1065
00:40:17,960 --> 00:40:23,080
the public. It's very confusing for

1066
00:40:20,400 --> 00:40:25,560
firefighters when we hear words of

1067
00:40:23,080 --> 00:40:28,240
countywide burn ban or a governor's

1068
00:40:25,560 --> 00:40:31,560
proclamation of a statewide burn ban.

1069
00:40:28,240 --> 00:40:34,440
None of that has affected us at all up

1070
00:40:31,560 --> 00:40:37,320
until this point. So, in any city or

1071
00:40:34,440 --> 00:40:38,920
town in Pierce County,

1072
00:40:37,320 --> 00:40:41,680
um the only fires that are allowed at

1073
00:40:38,920 --> 00:40:43,880
any time of year is a recreational fire.

1074
00:40:41,680 --> 00:40:47,640
So, it has to be firewood,

1075
00:40:43,880 --> 00:40:49,720
3 ft by 3 ft by 2 ft tall contained in a

1076
00:40:47,640 --> 00:40:51,480
fire pit or a fireplace.

1077
00:40:49,720 --> 00:40:53,480
All of the other bans that have been

1078
00:40:51,480 --> 00:40:56,280
implemented at the county or the state

1079
00:40:53,480 --> 00:40:57,840
level up until this point, um have

1080
00:40:56,280 --> 00:41:01,040
banned everything other than

1081
00:40:57,840 --> 00:41:02,520
recreational fires. So, Monday, August

1082
00:41:01,040 --> 00:41:04,040
17th,

1083
00:41:02,520 --> 00:41:05,920
countywide,

1084
00:41:04,040 --> 00:41:07,400
all outdoor fires will be banned until

1085
00:41:05,920 --> 00:41:09,480
further notice.

1086
00:41:07,400 --> 00:41:11,960
Um we anticipate that it'll probably

1087
00:41:09,480 --> 00:41:15,160
remain in place until we get measurable

1088
00:41:11,960 --> 00:41:17,280
rainfall that reduces fire danger.

1089
00:41:15,160 --> 00:41:18,600
I'm not a weather person, but I can

1090
00:41:17,280 --> 00:41:20,880
guess

1091
00:41:18,600 --> 00:41:23,000
probably October sometime.

1092
00:41:20,880 --> 00:41:25,640
Possibly later.

1093
00:41:23,000 --> 00:41:27,200
Um the good news is is at this point

1094
00:41:25,640 --> 00:41:29,680
charcoal, pellet, and gas grills will

1095
00:41:27,200 --> 00:41:32,720
continue to be okay.

1096
00:41:29,680 --> 00:41:35,200
Um so, any questions on burn ban or fire

1097
00:41:32,720 --> 00:41:36,560
danger currently?

1098
00:41:35,200 --> 00:41:37,680
Okay.

1099
00:41:36,560 --> 00:41:39,320
Um

1100
00:41:37,680 --> 00:41:40,600
last piece of really good news that we

1101
00:41:39,320 --> 00:41:43,440
found out this morning, the fire

1102
00:41:40,600 --> 00:41:45,720
department was notified from Department

1103
00:41:43,440 --> 00:41:48,480
of Labor and Industries. For the third

1104
00:41:45,720 --> 00:41:50,200
year in a row, we were awarded a grant,

1105
00:41:48,480 --> 00:41:51,760
and this is for our voluntary

1106
00:41:50,200 --> 00:41:54,960
participation

1107
00:41:51,760 --> 00:41:57,640
in a firefighter injury and illness

1108
00:41:54,960 --> 00:42:00,840
reduction program that we are a part of.

1109
00:41:57,640 --> 00:42:05,560
Our grant award is for five sets of

1110
00:42:00,840 --> 00:42:05,560
turnout gear in the amount of $23,190

1111
00:42:06,040 --> 00:42:10,800
with a 0% match from the city. So, I

1112
00:42:09,320 --> 00:42:12,200
just wanted to say thank you to Captain

1113
00:42:10,800 --> 00:42:14,240
Connor Smith.

It's exciting news. Um

Um they're currently installing sewer.

The natural gas main has been relocated

1151
00:43:45,240 --> 00:43:49,880
by PSE.

1152
00:43:47,080 --> 00:43:53,440
So, they're moving right along.

1153
00:43:49,880 --> 00:43:54,640
Um South Prairie Creek crossing status.

1154
00:43:53,440 --> 00:43:58,160

1158
00:44:02,160 --> 00:44:05,920
a week ago.

1159
00:44:04,520 --> 00:44:07,560
Um so, we're still working through that

1160
00:44:05,920 --> 00:44:11,040
permitting process. Dom has been in

1161
00:44:07,560 --> 00:44:12,920
contact with a contractor that we are

1162
00:44:11,040 --> 00:44:15,280
familiar with that has performed that

1163
00:44:12,920 --> 00:44:17,000
type of work previously up there, so

1164
00:44:15,280 --> 00:44:20,760
they're aware of

1165
00:44:17,000 --> 00:44:22,960
of the obstacles that it presents.

1166
00:44:20,760 --> 00:44:26,160
Um and then lastly, we are starting

00:44:26,160 --> 00:44:31,520

that goes across the for our water

1172
00:44:37,080 --> 00:44:39,640
system.

1173
00:44:37,800 --> 00:44:41,400
» South Prairie Creek crossing. Yeah,

1174
00:44:39,640 --> 00:44:42,640
yeah, it's the water transmission line

1175
00:44:41,400 --> 00:44:44,000
that crosses.

1176
00:44:42,640 --> 00:44:46,280
» Damaged during

00:44:44,000 --> 00:44:48,480
» The flooding events in December of '25.

1178
00:44:46,280 --> 00:44:50,000
» Right. So, we are replacing that and

1179
00:44:48,480 --> 00:44:52,240
getting that up and running and ready to

1180
00:44:50,000 --> 00:44:54,880
go.

1181
00:44:52,240 --> 00:44:57,280
» And if any council member is ever

1182
00:44:54,880 --> 00:45:01,000
wanting to take a tour, I'm more than

1183
00:44:57,280 --> 00:45:01,760
willing to give you a tour.

1184
00:45:01,000 --> 00:45:03,871
» You have [clears throat] to take your

1185
00:45:01,760 --> 00:45:05,320
volume

1186
00:45:03,871 --> 00:45:06,360
» [laughter]

1187
00:45:05,320 --> 00:45:08,760
» Pretty steep.

1188
00:45:06,360 --> 00:45:10,320
» I'll let you know.

1189
00:45:08,760 --> 00:45:10,960
» Okay, that's all of the stuff.

1190
00:45:10,320 --> 00:45:13,360
» I will say.

1191
00:45:10,960 --> 00:45:15,920
» It's okay.

1192
00:45:13,360 --> 00:45:18,080
So, I I have one more option for public

1193
00:45:15,920 --> 00:45:20,040
comments. If anyone that didn't sign up

1194
00:45:18,080 --> 00:45:20,960
or decided they have something to say.

1195
00:45:20,040 --> 00:45:22,720
Also, excuse me.

1196
00:45:20,960 --> 00:45:25,680
» Chamber president.

1197
00:45:22,720 --> 00:45:25,680
» Taylor.

1198
00:45:29,040 --> 00:45:32,840
» Hi there. This is

1199
00:45:30,520 --> 00:45:36,560
Taylor Stark, the president of the

1200
00:45:32,840 --> 00:45:38,640
chamber. Uh I am a Buckley resident

1201
00:45:36,560 --> 00:45:39,600
outside of city limits.

1202
00:45:38,640 --> 00:45:42,040
Uh

1203
00:45:39,600 --> 00:45:44,680
just wanted to say thank you for

1204
00:45:42,040 --> 00:45:47,720
considering the four-way stop and the

1205
00:45:44,680 --> 00:45:51,400
stop signs at A and Main.

1206
00:45:47,720 --> 00:45:53,240
Uh and also the talk of adding flashing

1207
00:45:51,400 --> 00:45:55,200
lights to that. Being a business owner

1208
00:45:53,240 --> 00:45:57,960
for a construction

1209
00:45:55,200 --> 00:46:01,320
company, any chance that we can uh make

1210
00:45:57,960 --> 00:46:03,480
ourselves more visible uh uh, is a heck

1211
00:46:01,320 --> 00:46:04,560
of a lot better for the general public

1212
00:46:03,480 --> 00:46:06,520
and the

1213
00:46:04,560 --> 00:46:08,560
the family members crossing the street

1214
00:46:06,520 --> 00:46:10,400
because seems like everyone has their

1215
00:46:08,560 --> 00:46:12,480
head in their phone and not paying

1216
00:46:10,400 --> 00:46:15,000
attention looking down there.

1217
00:46:12,480 --> 00:46:18,640
Uh, a lot of the businesses have talked

1218
00:46:15,000 --> 00:46:20,800
to me directly about how fast people

1219
00:46:18,640 --> 00:46:22,480
drive down Main Street and it's becoming

1220
00:46:20,800 --> 00:46:24,480
an issue for them,

1221
00:46:22,480 --> 00:46:25,400
their clients, their customers. Uh, and

1222
00:46:24,480 --> 00:46:27,880
so

1223
00:46:25,400 --> 00:46:31,680
adding a stop sign would help them out

1224
00:46:27,880 --> 00:46:34,600
uh, and their clients feel safer. Uh,

1225
00:46:31,680 --> 00:46:37,480
one of our next events is the

1226
00:46:34,600 --> 00:46:38,840
trick-or-treat event down on Main Street

1227
00:46:37,480 --> 00:46:40,520
this fall.

1228
00:46:38,840 --> 00:46:42,680
Uh,

1229
00:46:40,520 --> 00:46:44,920
and keep an eye out for that permit

1230
00:46:42,680 --> 00:46:46,520
which will start. Other than that, thank

1231
00:46:44,920 --> 00:46:48,840
you for being there and and have a good

1232
00:46:46,520 --> 00:46:51,680
night and thanks for your time.

1233
00:46:48,840 --> 00:46:51,680
» Thanks, Taylor.

1234
00:46:53,720 --> 00:46:56,520
Okay, anyone else?

1235
00:46:55,480 --> 00:46:58,320
» I see you.

1236
00:46:56,520 --> 00:47:00,440
» Seeing none,

1237
00:46:58,320 --> 00:47:02,427
uh, council member comments in good of

1238
00:47:00,440 --> 00:47:04,447
the order.

1239
00:47:02,427 --> 00:47:04,447
» [clears throat]

1240
00:47:04,480 --> 00:47:07,360
» Council member Smith.

1241
00:47:07,960 --> 00:47:12,600
» Well, I thought it was quite, uh,

1242
00:47:10,160 --> 00:47:16,680
ironic when

1243
00:47:12,600 --> 00:47:20,560
the gentle lady from PSE, um, presented

1244
00:47:16,680 --> 00:47:22,360
around the best moratorium.

1245
00:47:20,560 --> 00:47:24,760
And one of the things she said is,

1246
00:47:22,360 --> 00:47:26,400
"Washington's aggressive clean energy

1247
00:47:24,760 --> 00:47:29,400
laws."

1248
00:47:26,400 --> 00:47:32,120
So, that people in Olympia

1249
00:47:29,400 --> 00:47:35,360
passed the climate commitment act and

1250
00:47:32,120 --> 00:47:38,440
we're paying 60 some cents a gallon

1251
00:47:35,360 --> 00:47:41,840
at the pump for that.

1252
00:47:38,440 --> 00:47:45,040
For clean energy laws, but here we are

1253
00:47:41,840 --> 00:47:46,480
in a municipality

1254
00:47:45,040 --> 00:47:48,360
within the state of Washington that

1255
00:47:46,480 --> 00:47:51,080
passes laws

1256
00:47:48,360 --> 00:47:53,920
that is asking for a moratorium

1257
00:47:51,080 --> 00:47:57,400
for clean energy stuff.

1258
00:47:53,920 --> 00:47:58,640
I thought that was just ironic.

1259
00:47:57,400 --> 00:48:00,840
And it it

1260
00:47:58,640 --> 00:48:03,520
I ain't appreciated her presentation,

1261
00:48:00,840 --> 00:48:06,760
but here we are.

1262
00:48:03,520 --> 00:48:09,400
It is not just Buckley, it is it over in

1263
00:48:06,760 --> 00:48:10,840
Enumclaw, Maple Valley, everybody

1264
00:48:09,400 --> 00:48:11,960
because

1265
00:48:10,840 --> 00:48:15,160
the

1266
00:48:11,960 --> 00:48:19,560
kings and queens in Olympia and the

1267
00:48:15,160 --> 00:48:19,560
fewer who signs these laws

1268
00:48:19,880 --> 00:48:23,840
then it gets kicked down to

1269
00:48:21,440 --> 00:48:25,600
municipalities and we don't know what to

1270
00:48:23,840 --> 00:48:28,240
do.

1271
00:48:25,600 --> 00:48:30,880
And people don't know what to do.

1272
00:48:28,240 --> 00:48:32,680
And here we are.

1273
00:48:30,880 --> 00:48:34,480
And then at the same time, we've had

1274
00:48:32,680 --> 00:48:37,960
hydroelectric

1275
00:48:34,480 --> 00:48:37,960
on rivers

1276
00:48:38,600 --> 00:48:45,000
creating hydroelectric energy

1277
00:48:41,520 --> 00:48:47,640
that ignored the 1854

1278
00:48:45,000 --> 00:48:50,200
treaties with the tribes

1279
00:48:47,640 --> 00:48:52,520
about their salmon

1280
00:48:50,200 --> 00:48:55,360
what they're entitled to that at Point

1281
00:48:52,520 --> 00:48:58,520
Elliott and the others what was agreed

1282
00:48:55,360 --> 00:49:00,360
to. So, here we are in a conundrum

1283
00:48:58,520 --> 00:49:02,440
about energy.

1284
00:49:00,360 --> 00:49:04,280
I just thought I'd throw that out there.

1285
00:49:02,440 --> 00:49:05,680
If you pay attention, you know what time

1286
00:49:04,280 --> 00:49:08,600
it is.

1287
00:49:05,680 --> 00:49:11,880
Secondly, I would just like to say

1288
00:49:08,600 --> 00:49:14,360
that I was very heartened this afternoon

1289
00:49:11,880 --> 00:49:18,080
to see a post from the owner of Rainier

1290
00:49:14,360 --> 00:49:20,920
Fresh on 410

1291
00:49:18,080 --> 00:49:24,840
right next to Blue Max

1292
00:49:20,920 --> 00:49:26,760
who said that their Good Roots Northwest

1293
00:49:24,840 --> 00:49:30,720
truckers

1294
00:49:26,760 --> 00:49:33,960
served 400 families in July

1295
00:49:30,720 --> 00:49:35,840
with over 1,200

1296
00:49:33,960 --> 00:49:38,360
pounds of food.

1297
00:49:35,840 --> 00:49:39,400
And of course, July is a long month, 31

1298
00:49:38,360 --> 00:49:41,400
days.

1299
00:49:39,400 --> 00:49:43,880
400 families they served them right

1300
00:49:41,400 --> 00:49:46,120
there. They can they can show up

1301
00:49:43,880 --> 00:49:48,760
whenever. I'm sure that there's an app

1302
00:49:46,120 --> 00:49:50,440
and they say that this is here or there

1303
00:49:48,760 --> 00:49:52,120
what time it is

1304
00:49:50,440 --> 00:49:54,400
and they can go get it. I thought that

1305
00:49:52,120 --> 00:49:57,600
was absolutely good news serving the

1306
00:49:54,400 --> 00:49:57,600
community. Thank you.

1307
00:49:58,200 --> 00:50:03,480
» Anyone else?

1308
00:49:59,920 --> 00:50:04,120
Okay. So, if not, I'll accept a motion

1309
00:50:03,480 --> 00:50:05,280
to adjourn.

1310
00:50:04,120 --> 00:50:06,200
» Motion to adjourn.

1311
00:50:05,280 --> 00:50:07,040
» Second.

1312
00:50:06,200 --> 00:50:08,080
» All those in favor?

1313
00:50:07,040 --> 00:50:10,680
» Aye.

1314
00:50:08,080 --> 00:50:13,480
» Motion carried.

1315
00:50:10,680 --> 00:50:13,480
We are adjourned.

1316
00:50:27,440 --> 00:50:33,280
So, you can always send an email.

1317
00:50:30,320 --> 00:50:33,280
» They steal the information.

1318
00:50:34,320 --> 00:50:37,400
» I have no problem with that.
