Permit Activity
Permit applications have started slow in 2023. Based on 2022 a slow start to 2023 was
anticipated. The first quarter of a year is typically when we see inquiries and permit
applications as people prepare to start construction in the Spring. We do have permit
applications from late 2022 which will be issued soon and then translate into field work for
our inspectors. Within the next few weeks we will be issuing permits for four-new homes
(new development projects), and one large alteration with addition to an existing home.
T-Mobile will be completing an application for two small wireless facility sites in Medina with
submittal anticipated. An application to us for permit submitted by T-Mobile recently was
found to be incomplete. Once a complete application is submitted Council will be given more
detailed information.
Following on January’s Development Services staff report are two charts provided for your
interest. Our Development Services Coordinator, Rebecca Bennett researched data found
in various locations to produce the two charts.
Building Permit Valuation 2006 – 2022 Chart
Permit valuation is a relative number used by Development Services for consistency in
determining building permit fees. We were able to find data back to 2006. This chart reflects
“New construction” as you see in the monthly Permits Issued Report you receive. Other
permits are not part of this report. Fortunately for comparison, the method of determining
new construction permit value has not changed since 2006. However, we did discover
during this exercise that the method of determining some of our fees has changed between
department directors (Gellings up to September 2007, Wilcox September 2007 – March
2008, Grumbach March 2008 – April 2018, and Wilcox April 2018 -current). The chart is
generally accurate to the extent that trends are correct. The actual permit values should be
considered approximate, but fairly accurate even so. Rebecca spent quite some time
adjusting the permit values to try to make them more consistent between directors. The
permit values from 2006 have been adjusted to reflect how we currently calculate them.
Here are some highlights within this chart:
2007 was a very busy year for smaller permits, also included is the St. Thomas
School project with permit value of $19,499,000.
2008 was a year of many small, or average projects. “Small or average” by Medina
standards is large in most other jurisdictions.
23
AGENDA ITEM 5.1c

2010 shows the depth of the economic downturn at that time. One project of
$28,000,000 was in the total.
2012 was another year of many small projects with nothing to highlight.
2013 was the year we felt that Medina was out of the economic downturn. We were
busy with many small projects, but also one of $20,000,000 value and another of
$15,000,000.
2017 had one project of $15,374,969, but the others were small.
2019 for the most part was just busy. Only one project involving the St. Thomas
Church was notable at $10,800,000.
2022 saw one project of $6,300,000 and another of $5,000,000 permit value, but the
remainder of Development Services work was smaller.
I have additional detail regarding year to year permit values if you would like for me to
provide it.
New Construction 2006 – 2022
Rebecca Bennett produced this chart for us. The quantities shown are for “New
Construction” as is shown in the monthly Permits Issued Report you receive. Other permits
such as plumbing, mechanical, gas piping, etc. are not shown in the quantities. “New
construction” includes new houses and large projects so this is the primary revenue source
for Development Services and will control the chart trends. Interestingly the quantity trend
generally follows permit valuation. Permit value and permit quantity do not necessarily
follow the same trend.
We will continue to maintain the charts in the future. Adjustments will be needed in the
future if the way permit value is viewed changes.
Planning Commission
By Stephanie Keyser
Over 40 residents participated in the Visioning Workshop that was held on January 26th in
Medina Elementary School’s cafeteria. The feedback from each of the exercises is currently
being organized by the consultant and should be available by the end of February. Once
the city receives this information, we will publish it on the website and send out a notice via
GovDelivery and social media that directs people on where they can find it. This information
will also be included in March’s Council packet.
King County Wastewater Pump Station Maintenance Project
Last summer Development Services was notified that we would be receiving a permit
application for maintenance work at the wastewater pump station located at 633 81st Ave.
NE which is adjacent to Medina Elementary. Please see the “Medina Pump Station” location
map provided. We have again been talking with King County staff regarding their project.
Provided with this report is a PowerPoint (“Medina Pump Station Header Replacement”)
created by King County staff which is intended to give you background on the project.
Unfortunately, some of the PowerPoint is not clear. In the interest of time and simplicity, I
chose to not invite King County staff to make a presentation to you, but rather summarize
24
AGENDA ITEM 5.1c

the project for you myself. If you would prefer, I can ask that King County staff attend a
future Council meeting to answer your questions directly.
Project Summary
As normally occurs with machines and equipment, the King County wastewater treatment
pump station (“Medina Pump Station”) requires maintenance. The maintenance work has
a construction value estimate of $2,250,000. The work is not currently an emergency
requiring work today, but not acting to perform the necessary maintenance within the dates
prescribed by the County will result in failure as early as next Wint er with the result of an
emergency at that time. The County describes the equipment requiring maintenance as
being “paper thin and in imminent threat of failure”. King County is scheduling the
maintenance work to begin in July 2023 and last from 2 to 4 weeks, Generally, the
maintenance work involves replacement of various components which are internal to the
building.
Medina Municipal Code
The Medina Pump Station maintenance work is exempt from a building permit under Section
105.2.2 of the 2018 International Building Code as adopted by MMC 16.040.10.
The maintenance work is exempt from a Construction Activity Permit, and associated
mitigations under MMC 16.75.020.
The maintenance work is exempt from Medina’s Noise ordinance under Section 8.06.130
G.3. and G.4.
Proposed Methods Requiring Mitigations
King County has stated that work for one night for between 6-8 hours is needed. The night
work is necessary due to reduced flows through the pump station at that time. The night
work will involve outdoor workers, power tools, construction of a temporary by-pass system,
and trucking. The trucking is needed to capture and carry flow that normally goes through
the pump station to a King County owned property outside of Medina. The trucking is
needed during the period while the temporary by-pass is being constructed. The work at
night is only needed once. A permanent by-pass connection inside the building will be
installed which alleviates the need for future trucking.
Additionally, the project will require outdoor pumps and standby emergency power
generators during the 2 to 4 week construction period. One pump will always be operating
and a second pump will also operate as flows require. There will be an additional two pumps
on standby for emergency use, An acoustic designer as provided modeling for the exterior
pump noise and found that the level at the nearest receiving residential property boundary
exceeds the maximum limits. Medina requires that sound testing occur during operation of
the equipment (MMC 8.06.170). Modeling is necessary, but testing to prove conformance
with our noise ordinance will be needed.
Mitigations
Reasonable mitigations in the interest of limiting impacts on residents are yet to be
determined and King County understands this. Council is being asked for input into
appropriate mitigations.
The trucking, and outdoors work for one night in July 2023 will have impact on
residents near the Medina Pump Station and on truck routes.
25
AGENDA ITEM 5.1c
4
The operation of the outdoor temporary pump(s) will require code conformance and
proof of compliance through field testing. Modeling will be needed for design
purposes. If the sound level (as modeled and then tested) exceed our noise
ordinance limits, then mitigations as proposed by King County will be needed.
Trucking mitigations may include routes and stagging locations with the least impact
possible, and rules regarding idling and other avoidable noises.
Worker noises including from their vehicles can be reduced to some extent.
Exterior lighting will be needed and how that occurs needs to be investigated.
Tree Code Enforcement
With Sean Dugan on vacation following the January 23rd tree code presentation, little has been
done to complete the 6-bullet point draft code amendments. A focus back onto this has begun.
Please see the Development, and Non-Development tree activity reports for January,
Monthly REET Distribution Report
I believe that Ryan Wagner is discussing this in more detail in his report. The one property sale
in January 2023 will not likely result in a new development project. However, due to specifics
of the home as shown within public records it is possible that Medina could see an alteration
and addition permit for this property.
Permit Tracking and Public Portal
This is a topic that I would prefer to not get back into, but here we are. Sometime in the near
future I will provide Council an in-depth explanation of what we are starting to look at. The
general summary is that Development Services staff, and often the public, are very dissatisfied
with our current permitting products and vendor support. This is associated with our permit
tracking system implemented in 2011, and public portal implemented in 2020 which are both
provided as products known as SmartGov. For various reasons we have felt locked into the
system we have. Changes within the well-liked “My Building Permit” public enterprise have
come up recently where we may have our best opportunity to move on from the vendor we have
now.
Without any authority through direction, budget or otherwise we are now participating in
meetings and intend on becoming a member on a steering committee that is looking at options
for replacing My Building Permit. We are participating to see what involvement we may later
have. More to come as we learn more.

Development Services Fund
At the second Council meeting scheduled for February 27th I will be talking about the
Development Services Fund. The fund was implemented beginning in 2022. During the first
year of use in 2022 it became obvious that the fund will require focus through various means to
make it both transparent and sustainable.
One primary reason that the Development Services Department budget was separated out from
the general fund was to create better transparency considering the levy approval. Assuring that
the city can show that development is not paid for out of general fund money was the thought.
The idea of “development pays for development” is actually a state requirement.
In 2022 we saw what I had not anticipated as a significant decrease in development activity. If
the DS Fund is to remain separate from the general fund then it must be analyzed, amended,
and made to be independently sustainable. If changes are not made, then the DS Fund should
go back to being a part of the general fund as transparency will be difficult to show, and the
fund may not be independently sustainable.
More to come on February 27th.

AGENDA ITEM 5.1c
Project Description
The Medina Pump Station Header Replacement Project is a critical asset
replacement project which will replace key components of the Raw Sewage
Pump (RSP) room.
Due to the age and design of the existing facility, operations and maintenance
is unable to provide proper inspection, maintenance, or repair of the four RSPs
and check valves at the station, because it is not possible to isolate the pumps.
This project will replace the pump room header and install new suction,
discharge and check valves for each RSP, as well as installation of a pipe fitting
to provide permanent bypassing capability to the station.
The design of these new components includes connections and isolation valves
previously used only at treatment plants and will allow for the ability to isolate
and repair sections, rather than entire systems, and without having to drain
the force main to bypass the station for repairs in the future.
The Medina Pump Station Header Replacement Project is scheduled for
construction in the dry season this year, during two to four weeks, in July and
August 2023.
2 35
AGENDA ITEM 5.1c
Project Urgency
The pipes are in critical need of replacement. The wall thickness of the header
pipe inside of the station is “paper thin and in imminent threat of failure.”
King County’s goal is to complete this project as a critical asset replacement
project with the ability to control the level of impact to the local community.
This work needs to be completed during the dry season.
During construction, the work that will be visible to the community includes:
Use of temporary bypass pumps for approximate two weeks, directly outside
of the pump station, and within the footprint of the facility.
To install the permanent bypass, the 1.5-mile force main will be drained
into the wet well at the station and hauled by septage haulers for release at
Wilburton Siphon. This is expected to take 6-8 hours during a single night in
the dry season.
3 36
AGENDA ITEM 5.1c
Project Urgency
If the work is delayed, and an emergency repair becomes necessary, the
ability to control the impacts and duration of the work will be lost.
A failure of pipes or pumps would likely flood the station and require months
of repair and restoration to return the station to operation. In this case, the
result would be a larger, more disruptive project requiring a longer -term
bypass project while the station is restored.
Significant impacts to the community could include:
Wastewater overflows into Lake Washington.
Noise and traffic impacts, due to septage haulers 24/7 until a bypass is
installed.

the time. If there is a significant rain event, a second pump may come on for a short
time. Two pumps will provide full redundancy in the event one or more of the
temporary pumps fail.

the night of the bypass to reduce flows
•Including “no idling” language into the construction contract for
the septage haulers during the installation of the permanent bypass
•Notifying neighbors as soon as possible

legal review before it is brought to Council.

I would like copies of all final permits for
piers/docks previously constructed at property
8345 Overlake Drive, Medina Wa (now known as
111 84th Ave NE, Medina WA). The applicable
date range for this request is 1959 - 2019. By
way of clarification, I do not need copies of permit
B-19-054. It is my understanding piers/docks
were previously constructed at the 8345 Overlake
Drive address, before Charles Simonyi acquired
the property (combining the parcel with his
existing lot) and then relocating the pier/doc
further south on his property located at 111 84th

AGENDA BILL
Monday, February 13, 2023
Subject: Contract Approval with Flock Group, Inc. for City-wide Camera Installation and Lease
Agreement
Category: Consent
Staff Contacts: Jeffrey R. Sass, Chief of Police
Summary
Over the few years, city staff has been looking at options to replace the city’s current outdated
city-wide camera system. The city went out to bid in October and November 2022. The bids were
unsuccessful with no bidders. Staff with the help and support of our city attorneys looked into the
option of leasing.
The proposed lease service will ensure that the city will not have purchase and maintain a camera
system that will become outdated in the future. This lease comes with a maintenance agreement
and future updates to the cameras and software. Lastly, this service with Flock Group, Inc will
provide additional investigative tools for the Medina Police department to solve/deter crime in the
City of Medina.
This proposal meets and supports Council’s priorities 3 and 4.
Council Priorities:
1. Financial Stability and Accountability
2. Quality Infrastructure
3. Efficient and Effective Government
4. Public Safety and Health
5. Neighborhood Character
Attachment
Flock Group, Inc. Services Agreement/Contract (Reviewed and modified by City Attorney Emily
Romanenko and agreed to by Flock).
Budget/Fiscal Impact: This is a leased service with a recuring $42,500.00 fee per year to come
from the current Police Department Budget. There will be an additional $5,950.00 installation fee
added in for the first year (total for first year is $48,450.00).
Recommendation: Approve
City Manager Approval:
Proposed Council Motion: “I move to approve the contract with Flock Group, Inc. to replace the
current camera system which has become outdated and no longer functions efficiently and
authorize the City Manager to sign the contract.”

performing the physical installation of the Flock Hardware, Flock shall advise Agency on the location and
positioning of the Flock Hardware for optimal licen se plate image capture, as conditions and location allow. Flock
may consider input from Agency regarding location, position and angle of the Flock Hardware (“Designated
Location”) and collaborate with Agency to design the Deployment Plan confirming the Des ignated Locations. Flock
shall have final discretion on location of Flock Hardware. Flock shall have no liability to Agency resulting from any
poor performance, functionality, Footage or delay in installation due to Agency’s delay in confirming Designated
Locations, in ordering and/or having the Designated Location ready for installation including having all electrical
work preinstalled and permits ready, if necessary. After installation, any subsequent changes to the Deployment Plan
(“Reinstalls”) will incur a charge for Flock’s then-current list price for Reinstalls, as listed in the then-current
Reinstall policy (available at https://www.flocksafety.com/reinstall-fee-schedule) and any equipment fees. For
clarity, Agency will receive prior notice and provide approval for any such fees. These changes include but are not
limited to re-positioning, adjusting of the mounting, re-angling, removing foliage, replacement, changes to heights
of poles, regardless of whether the need for Reinstalls related to vandalis m, weather, theft, lack of criminal activity
in view, and the like. Flock shall have full discretion on decision to reinstall Flock Hardware.
2.8.2 Agency Installation Obligations. Agency agrees to allow Flock and its agents reasonable access in
and near the Designated Locations at all reasonable times upon reasonable notice for the purpose of performing the
installation work. Although Flock Hardware is designed to utilize solar power, certain Designated Locations may
require a reliable source of 120V or 240V AC power. In the event adequate solar power is not available, Agency is
solely responsible for costs associated with providing a reliable source of 120V or 240V AC power to Flock
Hardware. Flock will provide solar options to supply power at each Design ated Location. If Agency refuses
recommended solar options, Agency waives any reimbursement, tolling, or credit for any suspension period of Flock
Services due to low solar power. Additionally, Agency is solely responsible for (i) any permits or associated costs,
and managing the permitting process of installation of cameras or AC power; (ii) any federal, state, or local taxes
including property, license, privilege, sales, use, excise, gross receipts, or other similar taxes which may now or
hereafter become applicable to, measured by or imposed upon or with respect to the installation of the Flock
Hardware, its use (excluding tax exempt entities), or (iii) any other supplementary cost for services performed in
connection with installation of the Flock Hardware, including but not limited to contractor licensing, engineered
drawings, rental of specialized equipment, or vehicles, third -party personnel (i.e. Traffic Control Officers,
Electricians, State DOT-approved poles, etc., if necessary), such costs to be ap proved by the Agency (“Agency
Installation Obligations”). In the event that a Designated Location for Flock Hardware requires permits, Flock may
provide the Agency with a temporary alternate location for installation pending the permitting process. Once th e
required permits are obtained, Flock will relocate the Flock Hardware from the temporary alternate location to the
permitted location at no additional cost. Without being obligated or taking any responsibility for the foregoing,
112

any acts which would interfere with the retention of title of the Flock Hardware by Flock. Should Agency default on
any payment of the Flock Services, Flock may remove Flock Hardware at Flock’s discretion. Such removal, if made
by Flock, shall not be deemed a waiver of Flock’s rights to any damages Flock may sustain as a result of Agency’s
default and Flock shall have the right to enforce any other legal remedy or right.
2.9 Hazardous Conditions. Unless otherwise stated in the Agreement, Flock’s price for its services under this
Agreement does not contemplate work in any areas that contain hazardous materials, or other hazardous conditions,
including, without limit, asbestos, lead, toxic or flammable substances. In the event any such hazardous materials
are discovered in the designated locations in which Flock is to perform services under this Agreement, Flock shall

ROLE OF THE COMMUNITY
A Comprehensive Plan Update should be driven by the community and guided by
City Council. It is important to retain the public’s interest by making communi-
ty participation as accessible as possible throughout the entire Update. Adopting
an inclusive and robust Program ensures that the Update will be a relfection

pate, provide comment, and learn about the Update. Public participation meth-
ods and tools may vary by phase. This Program may continue to be reviewed
and refined throughout the Update, if needed. While traditional methods (meet-
ings, workshops, presentations, etc.) will remain an important role in public
engagement, the City will also use alternative participation tools more exten-
sively to make it easier for the public to participate. The following websites

Summary
The first Comprehensive Plan survey closed on January 29th. The city received 212 responses:
173 directly filled out the survey online and 39 dropped off a hardcopy at city hall that was
manually entered. The bulk responses are provided for your review. The consultant is working on
compiling the short answers into a more accessible format with comments grouped by themes.
The city anticipates receiving this information at the end of the month and once received, the
results will be posted on the website. The city will also send out a notice via GovDelivery and
social media to let residents know that the results are available.
One of the first tasks cities are required to do during the periodic update is to fill out the GMA
Checklist. This is a document the Department of Commerce creates that identifies components
of comprehensive plans and development regulations that may need updating to reflect the lates
local conditions or to comply with GMA changes since the last periodic update cycle. This forms
the basis of what needs to be amended during this update.

Much of the tree growth is recent (past 75 years). That's not heritage.
Instead of a tree code, there should be a board that makes thoughtful
regulations. Just ban large lawns, that's all. Owners would then plant
the right size of tree.

GROWTH MANAGEMENT SERVICES
Periodic Update Checklist for Fully-Planning Cities
Overview: This checklist is intended to help cities that are fully planning under the Growth
Management Act (GMA) conduct the “periodic review and update” of comprehensive plans and
development regulations required by RCW 36.70A.130 (4). This checklist identifies components of
comprehensive plans and development regulations that may need updating to reflect the latest
local conditions or to comply with GMA changes since the last periodic update cycle (2015-2018).
Statutory changes adopted since 2015 are emphasized in highlighted text to help identify new GMA
requirements that may not have been addressed during the last update or through other amendments outside of the required periodic update
process.
What’s new: For the 2024-2027 update cycle, Commerce has updated and streamlined periodic update resources including checklists, guidebooks
and a webpage to serve you better. A checklist and guidebook for partially-planning jurisdictions will be available prior to their 2026-2027 updates. A
separate checklist is available for counties.
2021-2022 Legislative Session:
HB 1220 substantially amends housing-related provisions of the GMA, RCW 36.70A.070(2). Please refer to the following Commerce housing
webpages for further information about the new requirements: Updating GMA Housing Elements and Planning for Housing.
HB 1241 changes the periodic update cycle described in RCW 36.70A.130. Jurisdictions required to complete their update in 2024 now have until
December 31, 2024 to finalize their review and submit to Commerce. Jurisdictions required to complete their updates in 2025-2027 are still required
to submit prior to June 30th of their respective year. Additionally, jurisdictions that meet the new criteria will be required to submit an
implementation progress report five years after the review and revision of their comprehensive plan.
HB 1717 adds new requirements in RCW 36.70A.040 and RCW 36.70A.190 regarding tribal participation in planning efforts with local and regional
jurisdictions.
SB 5593 adds new elements to RCW 36.70A.130(3) regarding changes to planning and/or modifying urban growth areas.
SB 5818 promotes housing construction in cities through amendments to and limiting appeals under the state environmental policy act (SEPA) and
the GMA, amending RCW 36.70A.070(2).
Local governments should review local comprehensive plan policies, countywide planning policies and multicounty planning policies (where
applicable) to be consistent with the new requirements.

AGENDA ITEM 9.2
PERIODIC UPDATE CHECKLIST FOR FULLY PLANNING CITIES – REVISED OCTOBER 2022 2
Checklist Instructions
With the most recent versions of your comprehensive plan and development regulations in hand, fill out each item in the checklist, answering the
following questions:
Is this item addressed in your current plan or development regulations? If YES, fill in the form with citation(s) to where in the plan or regulation the
item is addressed. Where possible, we recommend citing policy or goal numbers by element rather than page num bers, since these can change. If
you have questions about the requirement, follow the hyperlinks to the relevant statutory provision or rules. If you still ha ve questions, visit the
Commerce Periodic Update webpage or contact the Commerce planner assigned to your region.
Is amendment needed to meet current statute? Check YES to indicate a change to your plan will be
needed. Check NO to indicate that the GMA requirement has already been met. Local updates may not be
needed if the statute hasn’t changed since your previous update, if your jurisdiction has kept current with
required inventories, or if there haven’t been many changes in local circumstances.
Use the “Notes” column to add additional information to note where your city may elect to work on or
amend sections of your plan or development regulations, to call out sections that are not strictly required
by the GMA, or to indicate if the item is not applicable to your jurisdiction.
Submit your checklist! This will be the first deliverable under your periodic update grant.
PlanView system and instructions: Completed checklists can be submitted through Commerce’s
PlanView portal. The PlanView system allows cities and counties to submit and track amendments to
comprehensive plans or development regulations online, with or without a user account. You can also
submit via email: reviewteam@commerce.wa.gov Fill out and attach a cover sheet, a copy of your
submittal and this checklist. Please be advised that Commerce is no longer accepting paper submittals.
For further information about the submittal process please visit Commerce’s Requirements and
procedures for providing notice to the state webpage.

Chapter 2.28 Planning Commission to Allow for Hybrid Meetings and Clarify the
Number of Parks and Recreation Board Meetings
Category: City Business
Staff Contacts: Ryan Osada, Director of Public Works and Dawn Nations, Deputy City Clerk
Summary
City staff reviewed the Parks and Recreation Board meeting dates over a two-year period and
determined the park board could reduce the number of meetings per year from 10 meetings to 6
meetings per calendar year (January, March, May, July, September, and November). This change
would reduce board members and staff time but still allow for Park Board business and events to
be done effectively and efficiently. City staff presented the changes to the Parks and Recreation
Board at the November 21, 2022, and January 17, 2023 meetings. The board members discussed
and approved to take the changes to the City Council for a Code Amendment at the February 13,
2023, Council meeting. The reduction in meetings does not preclude the Parks and Recreation
Board from having additional meetings when needed. Also, included in this Code Amendment is
to allow the Parks and Recreation Board and Planning Commission to conduct Hybrid Meetings
in alignment with the City Council Hybrid Meeting format.
These proposed changes meets and supports Council’s priority number 3.
