HomeMy WebLinkAbout05-12-2008 - Supplemental MaterialsLOT COVERAGE BONUS ` PROPOSAL PLAN B' MY NAME IS VANCE MYLROIE. I'VE LIVED IN MEDINA FOR 58 YEARS NOW. FIRST OFF, I'D LIKE TO THANK THE MEDINA CITY COUNCIL FOR THIS NEWLY DEMONSTRATED ABILITY TO GET THINGS DONE MORE EXPEDICIOUSLY AND MORE REASONABLY THAN HAS SOMETIMES BEEN THE CASE IN THE PAST. YOU'RE SERVING US WELL. OUR NEWLY ELECTED MEMBERS HAVE HELPED A LOT AND THE CITIZENS WHO ELECTED YOU SINCERELY APPRECIATE YOUR ACTIONS. THIS IS EXACTLY WHY YOU WERE ELECTED. ONE THING FOR EXAMPLE ... IT ACTUALLY LOOKS LIKE WE'LL FINALLY, ONCE AGAIN, HAVE OUR "LITTLE GREEN STORE" TO ENJOY ( BEFORE WE'RE ALL DISEASED!). I WOULD LIKE TO VOICE MY SUPPORT AND THAT OF OUR NEIGHBORS AND FRIENDS IN FAVOR OF THIS COUNCIL APPROVING AND QUICKLY PUTTING INTO EFFECT THE GRADUATED LOT BONUS "PROPOSAL PLAN B" FOR SMALLER LOTS THAN R-16 ... LOTS LIKE OURS WHICH IS 12,000 SQUARE FEET. THIS PROPOSAL WOULD GIVE US THE ABILITY TO INCREASE OUR PARTICULAR LOT COVERAGE BY JUST 3.3%, OR ABOUT 400 SQUARE FEET, BUT EVEN THAT SMALL AMOUNT WOULD SIGNIFICANTLY BENEFIT US LITTLE GUYS IN OUR HOME INVESTMENTS AND IN ITS FUTURE VALUE. THAT'S IT. WE'D VERY MUCH APPRECIATE THIS SMALL ACCOMODATION ... ONE THAT WOULD HELP OUT A GREAT MAJORITY OF MEDINA RESIDENTS LIKE US.

Process: In an informal workshop format involving City Council Members and the Interim City Manager and facilitated by Waldron staff the group will be asked to focus on the positive, the times when they have been particularly successful in working together and with the community. From these experiences will come an outline of the protocols or desired conduct so those successful experiences will become the norm for conducting the City's business. Given the limitation of time there are three proposed areas of focus, (1) City Council Meetings, (2) City Council Staff Relations, and (3) City Council Community Relations. Each area will be addressed separately with each member of the group answering each question for themselves then sharing it with the group followed by a group discussion and hopefully consensus. Waldron staff will record the results at the time and prepare a written follow on report. 1. Area of Focus - City Council Meetings: Think about one or more of your most effective council meetings, one(s) you felt good about the process, how you worked together, etc. and answer the following questions individually. We will then discuss as a group. a. What was the subject? b. What kind of meeting was it? E.g. Regular meeting, work session, executive session, etc.? c. Why was it effective or what made it effective? Why was it a good meeting? d. What were Council Members and Mayor doing/not doing? e. What was the city manager & staff doing/not doing? £ What was the public doing/not doing? g. What role was played, if any, by an advisory board? h. If you could change one thing what would it have been? 2. Area of Focus - Council Staff Relations: Think about a (or more) time, subject, or issue where the City Council and the City Manager/City Staff worked particularly well together. Answer the following questions and then we'll discuss as a group. a. What was the subject or issue? b. What was the outcome? c. What made it so successful? d. What were Council Members and the Mayor doing/not doing? e. What was the city manager and staff doing/not doing? f. What was the public doing/not doing? g. What role was played, if any, by an advisory board? h. If you could change one thing what would it have been? 3. Area of Focus - Council Community Relations: Think about a time or issue when the City Council and staff worked particularly well with the Community. Answer the following questions then we'll discuss as a group. a. What was the subject or issue? b. What was the outcome? c. What made it so successful? d. What were Council Members and the Mayor doing/not doing? e. What was the city manager and staff doing/not doing? f. What was the public doing/not doing? g. What role was played, if any, by as advisory board? h. If you could change one thing what would it have been? City of Bellevue's Tolling Policy Statewide Tolling Policy Bellevue supports a comprehensive and thoughtful approach to tolling and pricing, but only as part of a systematic program for improving mobility. The state is to start a pilot project for congestion pricing on SR 167, with results to follow. If tolling and congestion pricing are to be considered for Washington's highways in the future, Bellevue urges the Legislature to provide specific policy direction for how, when and why tolling and congestion pricing will be implemented within Washington to ensure a consistent and equitable policy basis for possible deployment throughout the Puget Sound Region. Statewide tolling and pricing policy legislation should at a minimum address the following: Authorizing authority The Legislature should retain final authority to determine when tolling and pricing is used on state highways and interstate facilities. Policy goals for tolling and pricing: The state should clearly define tolling and pricing and the transportation policy goals to be achieved in pursuing them. Specifically, tolling and pricing decisions should meet the following policy goals: • Equity — tolling and pricing should be implemented in a manner that assures geographic, economic and social equity are achieved within regions; • Performance — tolling and pricing decisions should be based upon sound financial and transportation performance analyses to assure that the most optimal approaches are used for achieving the desired purposes of providing supplemental revenue and improved efficiency of the system; • Corridor benefit - Corridor specific toll revenue should be used to benefit that corridor. The application of system -wide tolls and pricing should be considered for systematic improvements; • Impacts — tolling and pricing decisions and programs should consider and address systematic impacts to other transportation facilities and services including local streets and roads; • Public outreach — comprehensive and sustained public input opportunities and communications should be conducted prior to decision -making and implementation. Regular monitoring of public use and response to tolling and pricing should be required. Assurance of a systematic approach: The State should require the development of an integrated approach to managing and paying for the transportation system prior to making tolling or pricing decisions and before allowing any local or regional governments to implement tolling programs. Bellevue supports the development of a "tolling plan" for the Puget Sound Region that articulates why, how, where and when tolling and pricing will be implemented, how it will affect the transportation system and the relationship of tolling to other transportation funding sources and regional mobility investments. Local governments should play a direct and integral role in the development of the regional tolling plan. r x IV91 'R3*F`S dye f t s UM ate" �. this a v w fG WS* k1 F AM a a � a P AT e' ( I r f i I I I I 1 I 7 [� I I I O I I I I I ' � �3�m o9 O to +�C14Q C ?14 I cD 'rJ f _ C ul'C, d c, 0Cad N 1. v?
