Date December 12, 2011
To: Mayor and City Council
From: Donna Hanson, City Manager
Subject: City Manager Report
1. Don't forget the 5:30 Executive Session and 6:00 reception for outgoing council members prior to
the Regular Meeting on Monday, December 12, in the Council Chambers.
2. The Giving Tree benefiting Childhaven is decorated in the City Hall lobby. We were given 65
individual gift tags (requests). Donated gifts must be unwrapped and received by 5 pm on
Thursday, December 15. We are also gathering donations for Hopelink Food Drive to be
distributed to eastside food banks. Donations will be accepted at City Hall during regular business
hours through Friday, December 16. Hopelink needs the following non-perishable items: cooking
oil, potatoes, onions, stuffing, juice, olives, flour, sugar, pumpkin, canned tuna fish, peanut butter,
pasta, rice, cereal, soup, canned fruit, canned tomato products, baking items and mixes, baby
food, and store gift cards.
3. The State auditor notified the City regarding the conclusion of its audit for fiscal year 2010. An
exit conference was held on December 5, 2011 to discuss the results of the audit. They reported
a clean audit; there were no Findings, Management Letters, or Exit items. This makes four years
in a row with no findings. They also took the opportunity to extend their appreciation to staff for
their cooperation and assistance. Congratulations to Nancy for her hard work throughout the year
and especially during the actual audit in September when we had so many other major issues
going on at one time.
4. Last month I reported that NORCOM dispatch has been under the direction of a contract
Executive Director for the past three years. That individual submitted their notice to terminate the
contract effective the end of November. I sat on a panel to screen applicants for an Interim
Director. We made a recommendation to the full Board and they accepted our recommendation
to hire Pam Bissonnette as the Interim Director. Pam was the former Assistant City Manager for
City of Bellevue. She was the interim Fire Chief in Bellevue for a year and has been through
implementation of a major technology change similar to NORCOM's current software project.
NORCOM has experienced some difficulty with a new CAD software program, but Medina is back
on the new system along with the cities of Mercer Island and Kirkland.
5. Staff met with Mitch Wasserman and Craig Olson of Clyde Hill and Andrew Merges of KPG to
outline design criteria for the 84th Corridor project. Issues raised during the public open house
were discussed and where applicable were incorporated into the design criteria. Reduction of the
median width to 11 feet, increasing traffic lanes to 11 foot widths, maintaining 6 foot wide bicycle
lanes on each side of the street, a mid-block depressed median curb and concrete textured area
for emergency pull-out/turnaround area, adding asphalt width beyond the traffic lane on the
Medina side of the roadway at the 12th Street and 24th Street intersections for pedestrian pathway,
designing the project for 35 mph posted speed limit, and waiting area accommodation for bus
stops at 20th

Subject: Monthly Development Services Department Report
Planning Commission Meeting Recap:
The Planning Commission approved a motion by Nunn to send the draft minutes from
the October 26 planning commission meeting and the memo on 84th Avenue N.E. that
was presented at the last council meeting to be included in the council's packet for the
December council meeting. (See below.)
The Planning Commission continued its discussion on updating the Medina Shoreline
Master Program. Suzanne Cohen commented about having a mission statement and
about the regulations being the most property owner friendly while respecting "no net
loss" and the environment. There was discussion on whether a minimum waterfront lot
width standard is necessary. The commissioners also discussed in depth the
provisions for allowing intrusions into the shoreline setbacks. Steve Burnstead spoke
in support of a 20 percent allowance for impervious surfaces. He favored the approach
Hunts Point and Yarrow Point are taking. There was a consensus by the
commissioners to retain the approach currently presented in the draft with a couple of
small changes. Discussion also followed on previously discussed revisions from the
last meeting, allowances for pile replacement on nonconforming piers, and about the
timing for the City to seek Ecology comments. Discussion was continued to the
December meeting.
Finally, the Planning Commission discussed its 2012 work program. They decided to
add an item to review the tree code and to drop the lower priority items. There was a
consensus to forward the 2012 work plan to the City Council for their consideration.

MEMORANDUM
To: City Council
From: Planning Commission
Date: October 26, 2011
Subject: 84th Avenue N.E. Improvements
The Planning Commission discussed the 84th Avenue N.E. improvements and
unanimously wishes to express the following:
The Planning Commission has great concerns about the project and believes the
following should be addressed before deciding on the improvements:
Function. 84th Avenue N.E. provides travel for a large amount of traffic and
we are concerned that a median could adversely affect the roadway's function
as an important access into and out of the community. Narrower lanes and
limits on turning around are a cause for concern.
Costs. How is the street improvement going to be paid for? While we
understand this is an issue to be decided by the City Council, as residents,
we are concerned on how additional funds will be raised during a time of tight
budgets.
Safety. While we understand the principle that narrower streets slow traffic
down, drivers still go about 5 miles over the speed limit. With narrower lanes
for vehicles, pedestrians and bicycles, we are concerned that speeds will be
such as to create a safety problem.
We are also concern because the road lacks streetlights on the west side.
When the trees in the median grow enough, they will block the roadway
lighting provided from the streetlights on the east side of the road. With
narrower lanes for traffic, pedestrians and bicycles, plus the lack of street
lighting on the west side, we are concerned a safety problem is being created
where one currently does not exist.
Aesthetics. This appears to be the primary purpose for the project. A new
tree median will have a profound effect on the look and feel of the community.
While this change in look could be good, more community input and public
vetting should take place before making such an important decision.

MEETING MINUTES AS SUBMITTED. APPROVED 7-0 (6:02 PM).
AUDIENCE PARTICIPATION (6:02 PM)
There were no comments from the audience at this time.
OTHER BUSINESS
1) Continued Discussion on Shoreline Master Program Update — Regulations and
Restoration Plan. (6:04 PM)
Grumbach discussed his memo summarizing the changes since the last meeting. He
reported meeting with Charlie Klinge (representing Medina Now), Steve Burnstead
and Suzanne Cohen. Following this meeting he identified formatting changes to the
chapter on shoreline modifications to help make these regulations easier to follow.
There was a consensus by the commissioners to review the SMP discussion draft in
the packet section by section.
DRAFT
Grumbach began with the section on general provisions. He explained that the
provisions were essentially unchanged except that purpose statements were
inserted. He noted that the next update would include reformatting the chapter to
break it down by subsections to make it easier to find specific definitions. He also
said that a new definition on "soft structural" shoreline stabilization was added.
Grumbach next addressed the section on shoreline environmental designations and
noted the addition of a map showing the different environmental designations.
Grumbach continued on to discuss the shoreline use regulations and reported no
changes on the uses. However, he noted that he would like to look at possible
changes regarding certain activities that are listed as requiring a conditional use
permit when that may not be necessary.
The next chapter reviewed was the shoreline general development standards.
Grumbach explained that most of the development standards are based on existing
zoning regulations, except the shoreline height regulation which is based on the
Shoreline Management Act. He explained that the zoning code height standards
would still apply and in most instances the zoning is likely to be more restrictive than
the shoreline standard.
Charlie Klinge, representing Medina Now, commented that if a resident wants the
exemption from the requirement for a substantial development permit that is available
for an owner-occupied single family home, they must adhere to the state's 35 foot
height limit. If they want to go higher than that, they would have to get a substantial
development permit. Klinge suggested revised language that would clarify this, if the
zoning allows a greater height. Grumbach explained that he would check on this, but
that he did not think it was correct that the height is tied to the substantial
development permit process.
Regarding shoreline setbacks, Grumbach noted that he had made some editing
changes since the last document to incorporate improved language that Klinge had
suggested. He added that in the next draft he would incorporate minor clarifications
to the stringline setback section that were suggested by Bob Rudolph.
Klinge again addressed the commission concerning residents' worries about the
creation of nonconformities for hardscape features, such as patios. He opined that
the language on setbacks should be clarified so that it applies only to buildings and
not hardscape.
Discussion followed on nonconformities and shoreline setbacks and where expansion
would be allowed. Also addressed were the character of the waterfront and the issue
of equity among property owners. Grumbach explained that the shoreline setbacks
are basically unchanged with the exception of the mitigation requirements for 30-foot
setbacks. There are existing non-conformities, however new nonconformities will not
be created.
Planning Commission Minutes Page 2 October 27, 2011
DRAFT
Steve Burnstead commented on shoreline setbacks, stating that there should be an
allowance for patios or decks in the setback areas because that is how people live.
He also felt that it was fine to regulate the first 30 feet, but beyond that there should
be some allowance to construct patios.
The commissioners discussed setbacks and nonconformities. Grumbach explained
the current rules of non-conformity under the zoning code. May summarized that the
consensus was to allow people to rebuild what they have. It was decided that
Grumbach would revise the language to add decks and patios consistent with this
concept. Nunn mentioned that it was important to know what the existing
development is on the waterfront. Grumbach explained that the City does not have
the resources to do the study that would be required, but we do have a sampling
analysis that suggests a range of 15% —20% impervious surfaces within shoreline
setbacks.
Chair O'Brien suggested it would be helpful to see examples of what 15% - 20%
looks like. Grumbach agreed to work up examples for the commissioners to review
and discuss at the next meeting.
Grumbach moved on to the next chapter on modifications and discussed the section
on piers and docks. He stated that the language was tightened-up to make it clearer,
but no substantive changes had been made. Regarding the shoreline stabilization
provisions, Grumbach stated that he had done editing but had made no substantive
changes other than removing the requirement for a geotechnical report on the
replacement of existing shoreline stabilization.
Regarding the tree provision, Grumbach explained the changes made to this section
and that it now more closely reflects the current tree code. He stated that he will do
more work in this area to make it clearer.
Burnstead addressed the subject of trees and explained that the language does not
take into account the existing trees that are too large in an urban environment. He
asserted that this section is too restrictive.
On the Restoration Plan, May identified a labeling error. He also pointed out that the
discussion on Fairweather Bay does not mention wave action, but that it can be
verified that there is substantial wave action there from boat activity and from
northwest winds which can cause 2- to 3-foot waves. He was concerned that
eventually the wave action becomes an argument for bulkhead replacement and that
there is no discussion of this in the document.
Amy Summe stated that they do not have studies supporting this but that they can
acknowledge it in the document.
2) Development Permit Provisions (includes Administrative Permit Provisions for the
Shoreline Master Program), (8:25 PM)
Grumbach introduced the development permit provisions and noted that these would
be adopted separately from the Shoreline Master Program. He explained that
Planning Commission Minutes Page 3 October 27, 2011
DRAFT
administrative provisions are not part of the Shoreline Master Program, but must be
reviewed by Ecology for consistency with state requirements. He went on to say that
the Medina code does not contain provisions for shoreline permits so this is new and
will include other permits as well. He also explained that shoreline permits currently
require a hearing before the hearing examiner and he is proposing to introduce a
new shoreline permit that can be approved administratively for projects that are
smaller in scope. He noted that this document will be more complete at the next
meeting.
3) 2012 Planning Commission Work Program (8:32 PM)
Grumbach briefed the commissioners that the City Council would like to review the
commission's 2012 work program at their December meeting if possible. He
explained that there was a request by a couple of residents for changes to the tree
code and the council wanted to know if the Planning Commission would like to work
on this issue next year. Discussion followed relative to the timing of the council's
review of the work plan and the consensus was to place this issue on the
commission's agenda for November.
4) Discussion on Proposed Plan for 84th Avenue N.E. (8:38 PM)
This issue was raised by Commissioner Nunn who expressed dismay that a
consensus at the last meeting to meet jointly with the Park Board was subsequently
overturned through email correspondence. She also communicated disappointment
that the opportunity the commission had to weigh in on an important issue was lost.
Discussion followed on Nunn's concerns.
Commissioners then discussed the proposed plan for 84th Avenue N.E. Price noted
that this item should have been placed on the agenda.
MOTION MAY/ SECOND PRICE TO FORWARD TO THE COUNCIL THE

FOR THE CITY BUT THAT THERE ARE A NUMBER OF CONCERNS ABOUT

UNCERTAINTIES. (8:57 PM)
Discussion followed. Nunn reported on the information she gathered while attending
the City's open house on this issue. Further discussion took place on the fiscal
concerns relative to the project.
May suggested that the Chair attend the council meeting to express the
commissioners' concerns. O'Brien agreed to attend.

FROM: Chief Mark Thomas
RE:Police Department Update
For the month of November, no violent crimes were reported in the City of Medina. Five
non-violent crimes were reported and four of them occurred on November 11 (3 vehicle
prowls and 1 burglary). The trend of increased vehicle prowls during 2011 has continued
with three in November, resulting in a year to date increase of 138% (19 vs. 8). Through the
end of November, the total crimes reported in 2011. are down 9% from 2010. Felony crimes
are down 10% and misdemeanors are up 10%.
The recent increase in burglaries and vehicle prowls in both Medina and Hunts Point have
been the greatest source of community concern, and our department's focus. We continue to
investigate these crimes aggressively and have good leads on the recent cases. The most
recent vehicle prowl on December 5"'resulted in one arrest as our officers were able to get to
the area quickly after being dispatched. We recovered a vehicle that had just been stolen in
Medina, and ended up investigating 4 mail thefts and 3 vehicle prowls the same area. We
continue to prioritize officer visibility and proactive patrols to combat crimes.
The Medina Police Department is on schedule to achieve state law enforcement accreditation
by the end of 2012. We have a draft of our new policy manual which is currently being
reviewed. The policy manual should be finalized and published by the end of the year. A
management review by the Washington Association of Sheriffs and Police Chiefs (WASPC)
will likely occur in February and the initial accreditation visit by June, leaving us sufficient
time to complete the necessary follow-up by the end of the year.

CITY OF MEDINA
Office of the City Manager
December 5, 2011
To: Mayor and City Council
Via: Donna Hanson, City Manager
From: Joe Willis Sr., Director of Public Works
Subject: November 2011 Public Works Report
1. The Public Works crew installed reflective buttons at each end of the NE
12th/Lake Washington Blvd Traffic Safety Improvement Project. Additional
reflectors were installed south of the Lake Washington Blvd median island to
provide advance warning of the center island, and on the north side of the
median island at 86th Ave NE.
The new crosswalk marking across Lake Washington Blvd at 88th was installed
on November 30th. The flashing pedestrian activated light has been ordered
but has not been delivered yet. The PSE street light is expected to be delivered
and installed by PSE this month.
Small Works Roster was used to solicit bids to complete the missing sidewalk
section at 86th Ave NE. The low bidder was Edge Concrete. Clyde Hill has
agreed to participate by contributing $2,547 to the project to install an ADA
ramp at the north end of the new sidewalk. The work will be coordinated with
Puget Sound Energy's removal of the utility box and installation of underground
utility vaults in the new sidewalk area.
2. City streets were swept and most of the leaves removed from the streets and
sidewalks. Removal of the Poplar Trees along
84th at St Thomas Church
begins on December 5th and will take three days.
3. The City Manager and Public Works Director met with Mitch Wasserman and
Craig Olson of Clyde Hill and Andrew Merges of KPG to outline design criteria
for the 84th Corridor project. Issues raised during the public open house were
discussed and where applicable were incorporated into the design criteria.
Reduction of the median width to 11 feet, increasing traffic lanes to 11 foot
widths, maintaining 6 foot wide bicycle lanes on each side of the street, a mid-
block depressed median curb and concrete textured area for emergency pull-
out/turnaround area, adding asphalt width beyond the traffic lane on the
Medina side of the roadway at the 12th Street and 24th Street intersections for
pedestrian pathway, designing the project for 35 mph posted speed limit, and
waiting area accommodation for bus stops at 20th Street. 90% design plans are
expected in mid-January for staff review.

4. The urban design consultants for WSDOT developed a concept plan for the
stairs and seating area at Fairweather Park where the Regional Trail and the
Evergreen lid match to the Park. This concept will be shared with the Park
Board at their next meeting on January 23rd.

Memorandum of Understanding with the City of Bellevue
Subject: Regarding Utility Taxes
Cate or
Consent Ordinance Public Hearinggy:
City Council Business El Resolution Other—Discussion
Prepared By: Bruce Disend, City Attorney
Summary:
Staff has previously brought to Council's attention the Washington Supreme Court's
decision in Lane v. Seattle. In that case, the Court had to decide who would pay for fire
flow (hydrants) in the City of Seattle and its suburbs. The City, through Seattle Public
Utility, had been paying the cost and passing the cost along to its ratepayers. Certain
ratepayers objected to this cost arguing that it was a cost of general government that
should be absorbed by Seattle. Seattle responded by saying that, if it had to pay for
fireflow out of its General Fund, instead of through utility rates, it wanted suburban water
service customers to pay their respective share of fireflow costs. The Court ruled that
the charge imposed by Seattle on ratepayers to pay for fireflow was an illegal tax.
Consequently, Seattle would have to pay such costs out of its general fund.
In light of the Lane decision, Bellevue has transferred the cost of providing fireflow to its
general fund. Bellevue is now seeking payment from the cities it provides fireflow to by
amending the Bellevue utility tax code. Under the MOU, city's utility customers will
become responsible for their respective, proportionate shares of the utility facility costs.
The City Councils of all the other cities receiving fireflow from Bellevue have approved
the MOU. These cities are: Issaquah, Kirkland and the towns of Hunts Point and
Yarrow Point. The attached MOU would establish the same relationship for the City of
Medina.

MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING REGARDING UTILITY TAXES BETWEEN
THE CITIES OF BELLEVUE,MEDINA, ISSAQUAH,
AND KIRKLAND,AND THE TOWNS OF HUNTS POINT AND YARROW POINT
This Memorandum of Understanding is made as of the day of 2011
Between the Cities of Bellevue, Medina, Issaquah and Kirkland all municipal corporations,
which are located in and existing under the laws of the State of Washington and between the
Towns of Hunts Point and Yarrow Point, both municipal corporations located in and existing
under the laws of the State of Washington (which governmental entities may be referred to
collectively as "Parties").
I. RECITALS
WHEREAS, the City of Bellevue Utilities Department (referred to as the "Utility")
provides water utility services to residents and ratepayers of the cities of Issaquah, Kirkland, and
Medina, and to the Towns of Hunts Point and Yarrow Point. Such utility services include the
provision of fire hydrants and fireflow water capacity for the purpose of fire suppression
otherwise referred to as "fireflow capacity");
WHEREAS, the Utility has historically included the costs associated with fireflow
capacity in water utility rates for customers throughout its water utility service area; and
WHEREAS, in October of 2008 the Washington State Supreme Court issued a decision
in Lane v. Seattle Public Utilities, 164 Wn.2d 875, 194 P.3d 977 (2008) holding that the
provision of fireflow capacity is a governmental function separate from the proprietary functions
of a water utility. The Court further held that the costs of providing fireflow capacity must
therefore be paid for out of a local government's general fund and that such costs may not be
charged directly to water utility ratepayers; and
WHEREAS, in compliance with the Court's ruling, the City of Bellevue transferred the
costs of providing fireflow capacity charges to its General Fund as a general governmental
expense; and
WHEREAS, the City of Bellevue, to offset the impact to its General Fund from providing
fireflow capacity to water utility customers outside the City limits, requested payment from the
Parties for their respective proportionate share of the utility facility costs associated with the
Utility's provision of fireflow capacity to each jurisdiction; and
WHEREAS, certain Parties to this Memorandum of Understanding have protested the
City of Bellevue's request for such a payment for various reasons and have requested that
Bellevue amend its Utility Occupation Tax Code to tax the gross receipts from water service
ratepayers outside the City limits to cover Bellevue's costs of providing customers outside the
Bellevue City limits with fireflow capacity; and
WDT929571.DOCX;1/00010.090000/}Memorandum of Understanding—Page 1
ITEM CA-3
WHEREAS, the Parties agree that it is inequitable to require the taxpayers of the City of
Bellevue to subsidize the provision of fireflow capacity to utility customers located outside of the
city limits of Bellevue; and
WHEREAS, the Washington Supreme Court ruled, in Burba v. Vancouver, 113 Wn.2d
800, 783 P.2d 1056 (1989), that a municipality may lawfully impose a tax on revenue generated
by a utility from customers served outside the city limits provided a reasonable relationship
exists between the event taxed and the benefit conferred; and
WHEREAS, the Parties agree that a reasonable relationship exists between the event
taxed and the benefit conferred with respect to the Utility's provision of fireflow capacity; and
NOW, THEREFORE, the Parties agree as follows:
II. PRINCIPALS OF UNDERSTANDING
1. Amendment to Bellevue City Code (BCC). Bellevue shall take all necessary steps,
including any required public notice, to amend BCC 4.10.025 ("Utility Occupation Tax") to
provide for application of its utility tax rate as measured against the gross proceeds of sales from
customers of the utility throughout its entire water service area.
2. Adjustment of Rates or Charges. It is expressly understood and agreed to by the Parties
that the Utility may adjust rates or charges for utility customers located throughout the service
area in order to offset the increase in Utility Occupation Tax imposed on the Utility occasioned
by an amendment to BCC 4.10.025 to allow for collection of utility taxes outside of the City of
Bellevue's municipal boundaries, and further that nothing herein shall be deemed to prohibit
Bellevue from adjusting rates and charges within its lawful authority to recoup costs incurred by
the Utility associated with the Court's ruling in Lane, supra.
3. Agreement to Pay for Costs Associated with Provision of Fireflow Capacity. Should a
successful legal challenge be made by any taxpayer, customer or ratepayer relating to Bellevue's
authority to amend the scope of its Utility Occupation Tax or relating to the Utility's authority to
tax customers located outside of the City of Bellevue's municipal boundaries, or related to any
adjustment in rates or charges to offset the increase in the Utility Occupation Tax imposed on the
Utility, each of the Parties shall remit payment to the City of Bellevue for its proportionate share
of the cost associated with the Utility's provision of fireflow capacity within ninety (90) days of
receipt of a request for payment from the City of Bellevue. PROVIDED, however, that the
Parties retain the right to challenge the amount of the payment requested by Bellevue and the
right of Bellevue to pass the costs of individual elements of fireflow capacity costs on to the
Parties.
4. Term and Termination. This Memorandum of Understanding shall remain in effect so
long as the provision of fireflow capacity is legally characterized as a governmental function of a
WDT929571.DOCX;1/00010.090000/}Memorandum of Understanding—Page 2
ITEM CA-3
water utility or municipality and the costs of that service are required to be paid for out of a local
government's general fund. PROVIDED, however, that any Party to this Memorandum of
Understanding may choose to opt out by giving at least ninety (90) days written notice to the
Utility that it has secured alternative fireflow capacity service. If the Utility chooses to cease
provision of fireflow capacity service to any Party, it shall provide at least 365 days written
notice to the affected Party. If any other binding Agreement or Contract between the Utility and
one or more of the other Parties provides for greater notice of cessation of fireflow capacity
service, that longer period shall apply.
5. Modification and Amendment. No modification or amendment of any of the terms or
provisions of this Memorandum of Understanding shall be binding upon any Party unless made
in writing and signed by all Parties or by a duly authorized representative or agent of such
Parties.
6. Severability. In the event that any court shall find any portion of this Memorandum of
Understanding unenforceable, the remaining portion shall remain in full force and effect.
7. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed in all respects by the law of the State
of Washington.
8. Execution in Counterparts. This Memorandum of Understanding may be executed in
several counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed an original copy and shall
become effective upon all signatures by all Parties upon one or more of such identical
counterparts. It is further agreed that a signature page sent by facsimile or by electronic mail
shall be deemed to be an original.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the PARTIES have executed this Memorandum of
Understanding as of the day and year first written above.

AGENDA BILL
An Ordinance Relating to Requirements for Submission of a Building
Sub-ect: Permit A.plication
Category: Consent Ordinance Public Hearing
City Council Business Resolution Other- Discussion
Prepared By: Robert J. Grumbach, Director of Development Services
Summary:
Building construction projects within Medina are frequently some of the most complex found in
the region. This complexity requires various highly specialized professionals to be involved with
the project, which may then be managed during design and construction by the project architect.
When the more complex projects lack an architect's managerial involvement, the City and the
property owner tend to experience greater difficulties including extended permit review times
and possible construction delays.
At the November 14 council meeting, an ordinance was introduced that in summary would
require an architect to stamp drawings on projects for constructing a single-family dwelling with
a gross floor area of 4,000 square feet or larger (projects below this threshold can be prepared
by a non-licensed designer). The City Council express support conceptually for the change, but
requested that the proposed code language be revised to make the amendment clearer.
Chapter 18.08 RCW sets forth the requirements for the licensing of architects in Washington
state and when a Washington state licensed architect is required. The statute exempts from
licensing requirements those projects such as interior design not affecting public health or
safety, design work for up to four dwellings regardless of size, and design work on non-
residential buildings 4,000 square feet in size or smaller. The City, under its authority to
establish submittal requirements for a building permit application, may require construction
drawings normally exempt to be prepared by a licensed architect in order to be accepted as part
of a complete building permit application.
The revised code amendment makes use of the language found in RCW 18.08.410 (where the
exemptions are found) in order to more clearly identify that the City's submission requirement is
essentially an exception to the state's exemption on licensed architects preparing construction
documents.

Prepared By: Joe Willis, Sr., Public Works Director, and
David Clark, Project Manager
Summary:
The City Council authorized the City Hall construction project in September of 2010 with
award of the contract to Par-Tech Construction. Work commenced in November and
extended through July of 2011 when substantial completion was achieved and City staff
moved into the building. Site work and punch list work has extended into December with
site irrigation restoration work remaining to be completed.
The original ferry terminal building constructed in 1913 and turned into Medina City Hall
in 1955 with less than 6000 square feet of floor area was renovated and expanded to
9,754 square feet and furnished at a total cost of $2,724,941. This total cost includes
architectural design, permits and inspections, construction costs, construction
management, temporary City Hall, furniture, CCTV, and building alarm systems.
David Clark Architects served as the Owner's representative for the City Hall Project.
David worked diligently to resolve design issues and problems, and without his
oversight and expertise, the project most certainly would not have been as successful.
A number of issues arose early in the project, such as, discovery of existing building
framing deficiencies, contaminated soil, moisture problems along the existing concrete
retaining wall fronting on the parking area. All of these items together with others as
they were discovered required additional work and added cost. Each problem as it was
encountered was addressed, communicated to the Council Facilities Committee and
Council, and thanks to the financial commitment of the entire Council were resolved.
The end result of years of planning is an expanded and renovated City Hall that is safe
and code compliant. This building will support public safety and administrative services
for many years to come. The staff and council are proud of the, planning,design, and
final project.

Sub'ect: An Ordinance relatin• to Fire A. •aratus Access Road Re.uirements
Cate or Consent Ordinancegy; 121 Public Hearing
El City Council Business El Resolution Other— Discussion
Prepared By: Robert J. Grumbach, Director of Development Services
When the State Building Code Council adopted the most recent Washington State
Building Code, they amended Section 503 of the International Fire Code to allow local
governments to establish fire apparatus access road requirements that were tailored to
fit local conditions. The outcome is local jurisdictions must adopt their own standards if
they wish to have authority for this fire protection measure.
The City of Medina contracts with the City of Bellevue for fire protective services. It
benefits the community to have consistency, where plausible, between the jurisdictions
so that the fire department is not managing multiple fire code standards. The proposed
ordinance incorporates consistency by matching most of the technical aspects of the
Bellevue fire code. The primary differences are authority for the Medina Building Official
to be involved in some of the decision-making, and the design of emergency vehicle
turnarounds (the City has its design standards in Chapter 17.72 of the Zoning Code and
will update these during the comprehensive zoning code update).
The ordinance also amends Section 17.72.090 of the Zoning Code to update the
language for better consistency with the International Fire Code.

lengthy. The purpose of the guidelines is to centralize information on common issues
related to city government and to identify the role of Council members. In addition, the
City Council has adopted ground rules to guide how the council conducts its business at
council meetings and interacts with city staff.

friendly" and combining them with the ground rules. In response, staff has drafted a
revised set of guidelines that reduces and simplifies the guidelines and incorporates the
most significant parts of the Council ground rules. The Revised Guidelines are brought
forward for Council's review and approval.

ITEM OB-5
INTRODUCTION
The City Council Guidelines are intended to centralize information on common
issues related to local government and your role as a member of the Medina City
Council. Much of the content has been based upon state law. All Council
members are expected to follow these guidelines and be bound by them unless
excused by a vote of the City Council.
There are many other resources available to Council members in addition to the
information set forth in these Guidelines. Two principal sources of information
are:
A. Municipal Research & Services Center of Washington and
Association of Washington Cities
The Municipal Research and Services Center (MRSC) is a private, non-profit
organization based in Seattle, Washington. MRSC's mission is to promote
excellence in Washington local government through professional consultation,
research and information services. All of the information and research services
described below are available free of charge to elected officials and staff of
Washington city and county governments MRSC serves Washington local
governments by providing: (1) Dependable advice from a multidisciplinary team
of professional consultants; (2) A comprehensive Web site; (3) Access to
thousands of sample documents; (4) Timely and informative print and electronic
publications; and (5) Access to the largest local government library collection in
the Northwest.
MRSC produces a number of useful guides and handbooks for Council
members, including the following:
Councilmember's Handbook. Report No. 48 Revised, December2009.
A brief overview of the structure of municipal government in Washington
State and the role of the Councilmember in that structure. The primary
focus is on the Council meeting.
Local Government Policy-Making Process. Report No. 45, February
1999. The purposes of this publication are to describe the local
government policy-making process, outline effective roles for local
officials, and to provide practical tips to make the local policy-making
process for satisfying and productive.
Knowing the Territory- Basic Legal Guidelines for Washington City,
County, and Special District Officials. Report No. 47 Revised,
November 2009. Describes the nature, powers and duties of municipal
officials for "keeping out of trouble," discusses limitations, regulations, and
admonitions regarding the exercise of governmental powers, including
5
ITEM OB-5
conflicts of interest law, the open public meetings act, appearance of
fairness doctrine and similar laws. It also points out immunities and
protections.
B. The Association of Washington Cities
The Association of Washington Cities (AWC), founded in 1933, is a private, non-
profit, non-partisan corporation that represents Washington's cities and towns
before the state legislature, the state executive branch and with regulatory
agencies. Membership is voluntary. However, AWC consistently maintains 100%
participation from Washington's 281 cities and towns. A 24-member Board of
Directors oversees the association's activities.
What does AWC do? AWC's staff focuses its work in five service areas:
Legislative representation
Educational training
Publications and resources
Technical assistance in personnel and labor relations, energy,
transportation, budgeting, planning, risk management and employee
wellness
Member programs, such as municipal liability and property insurance,
employee drug and alcohol testing, and employee benefits

ITEM OB-5
Chapter 1
GENERAL OVERVIEW
As a City Council member, you not only establish important and often critical
policies for the community, you are also a board member of a public corporation
having an annual budget of several million dollars. The scope of services and
issues addressed by the city organization go well beyond those frequently
reported in the newspaper or discussed at City Council meetings.
Basic City Documents
This manual provides a summary of important aspects of City Council activities.
However, it cannot incorporate all material and information necessary for
undertaking the business of the City Council. Many other laws, plans, and
documents exist which bind the City Council to certain courses of action and
practices. The following is a summary of some of the most notable documents,
which establish City Council direction.
A. Medina Municipal Code
The municipal code contains local laws and regulations adopted by ordinances.
Title 2 of the code addresses the role of the City Council, describes the
organization of City Council meetings and responsibilities and appointment of
certain city staff positions and advisory boards and commissions. In addition to
these administrative matters, the municipal code contains a variety of laws
including, but not limited to, zoning standards, health and safety issues, traffic
regulations, building standards, and revenue and finance issues.
B. Revised Code of Washington
The Revised Code of Washington (RCW) is the compilation of all permanent
state laws now in force. It is a collection of laws enacted by the Legislature, and
signed by the Governor, or enacted via the initiative process. The state laws
contain many requirements for the operation of city government and
administration of meetings of City Councils throughout the state.
Medina is an "optional code city," which means it operates under the general
laws of the state. As an optional code city of the State of Washington, Medina is
vested with all the powers of incorporated cities as set forth in the Revised Code
of Washington (RCW), Constitution of the State of Washington, and Medina
Municipal Code.
7
ITEM OB-5
C. Annual Budget
The annual budget is the primary tool and road map for accomplishing the goals
of the City. The budget document is the result of one of the most important
processes the City undertakes. By adopting the annual budget, the City Council
makes policy decisions, sets priorities, allocates resources, and provides the
framework for government operations.
D. Comprehensive Plan
The Washington Legislature enacted the Growth Management Act (GMA) in
1990. The GMA was enacted in response to rapid population growth and
concerns with suburban sprawl, environmental protection, quality of life, and
related issues. The GMA is codified primarily in Chapter 36.70A RCW.
The GMA provides a framework for regional coordination. Counties and cities
planning under the GMA are required to formally adopt planning policies to guide
their respective planning activities. This is carried out via the adoption of
documents known as "comprehensive plans."
The City's comprehensive plan is the starting point for any planning process and
the centerpiece of local planning. Development regulations (zoning, subdivision,
and other controls) must be consistent with comprehensive plan.
The City's comprehensive plan is reviewed on an ongoing basis. Apart from
certain narrow exceptions provided by state law, the City's plan may only be
revised once per year.
Chapter 2
MEDINA CITY GOVERNMENT: POWERS AND RESPONSIBILITIES
2.01 Council-Manager Form of Government (See, also, Section 7.02)
The City operates under the Council-manager form of government. This
approach consists of an elected City Council which is responsible for policy
making, and a professional City Manager, appointed by the Council, who is
responsible for administration. The City Manager provides policy advice, directs
the daily operations of city government, handles personnel functions (including
the power to appoint and remove employees) and is responsible for preparation
of a budget. Under the Council-manager enabling law, the City Council is
prohibited from interfering with the manager's administration. The City Manager,
however, is directly accountable to, and can be removed by the Council at any
time.
The Mayor in Council-manager cities is selected by the City Council from among
its members. The Mayor generally presides at Council meetings and is
8
ITEM OB-5
recognized as the head of the City for ceremonial purposes, but has no regular
administrative duties.
State law recognizes the separation of powers between the legislative and
administrative branches of government. Under state law, members of the City
Council may not become directly involved in the administrative affairs of the City.
RCW 35A.13.120 specifically prohibits interference by Council members in the
City's administrative service, including the hiring, firing, and work of city staff, with
the exception of the City Manager.
2.02 City Council
The City Council is the policy making and law making body of the City. State law
and local ordinances grant the powers and responsibilities of the Council. It is
important to note that the Council acts as a body. No member has any
extraordinary powers beyond those of other members. While the Mayor has
some additional ceremonial responsibilities, when it comes to establishing
policies, voting, and other matters, all members are equal. It is also important to
note that policy is established by at least a majority vote of the Council.
Although individual members may disagree with decisions of the majority, a
decision of the majority does bind the Council to a course of action. Council
members should respect adopted Council policy. In turn, it is staff's responsibility
to ensure the policy of the Council is carried out.
The City Council is responsible for appointing one position within the city
organization—the City Manager. The City Manager serves at the pleasure of the
Council. The City Manager is responsible for all personnel within the city
organization, including the city attorney, hearing examiner, municipal court judge,
municipal prosecutor, and public defender. The City Manager's appointment of
the municipal court judge is subject to confirmation by the City Council.
Except for the purpose of inquiry, the Council and its members must deal with the
administrative personnel solely through the City Manager or the manager's
designee. Neither the Council nor any member of the Council may give orders to
any subordinate of the City Manager.
2.03 Advisory Bodies
A. Appointments Made by the Mayor and Confirmed by Council
Boards, commissions and citizen committees provide a great deal of assistance
to the Medina City Council when formulating public policy and transforming policy
decisions into action. The City has several standing boards and commissions. In
addition, special purpose committees and task forces are often appointed by the
mayor and City Council to address issues of interest or to conduct background
9
ITEM OB-5
work on technical or politically sensitive issues. Special or ad hoc committees will
be dissolved upon completion of the intended task.
The City Council is specifically empowered to create all advisory boards and
commissions pursuant to the provisions of Chapter 35A (Optional Municipal
Code), or such advisory boards or commissions not specifically enumerated, as
the Council deems necessary or advisable. In the exercise of this power, it is the
desire of the City Council to establish a consistent policy in its decision-making
role to fairly and equitably evaluate those citizens of the community who
demonstrate a desire to serve on such boards or commissions.
B. Qualifications, Terms of Service, Forms
Persons wishing to be considered for appointment or reappointment will submit
to the city clerk's office an application on a form provided by that office. It is the
policy of the City Council for each applicant to be evaluated on an objective
basis, utilizing the following criteria:
1. Residency - Residency requirements for advisory boards and
commissions are noted in applicable sections of the Medina Municipal
Code, and summarized on the Membership and Qualification Matrix
appended hereto.
2. Sectional Composition - Normally, consideration should be given toward
maintaining an equitable balance of community representation on all
boards and commissions. Multiple members from the same family or
household will not be appointed to a single board or commission, in order
to avoid the reality or appearance of improper influence or favor.
3. Occupation - A broad mix of occupational backgrounds on all boards and
commissions will be attempted as appointments are considered.
4. Knowledge of Municipal and Planning Process - When ranking equally
qualified applicants, consideration shall be given to background
experience and knowledge of the municipal process as appropriate to the
position, in reaching a decision.
5. Contributive Potential — Consideration will be given to the potential
contribution that each applicant may make if appointed to a board or
commission. Criteria to guide this evaluation may include:
a. Ability to communicate
b. Desire to perform public service
c. Ability to express ideas, concepts, or philosophies
d. Desire to participate in decision-making process
10
ITEM OB-5
6. Leadership Potential - Since each appointee may be called upon to serve
as a chair, consideration will be given to the applicant's leadership abilities,
such as:
a. Past or present leadership experience (current employment, special
interests, etc.)
b. Past or present participation in community services
c. Expressed interest in a leadership role
No person shall be appointed to serve as a member of more than one
board or commission at the same time; however, persons serving on a
board or commission who have requested appointment to another board
or commission position may be appointed to such position if they,
concurrent with the appointment, resign from the board or commission
position they are holding at the time of the new appointment.
D. Appointment Process
1. Council Personnel Committee. The mayor, together with two other
Council members designated by the mayor, shall constitute a
personnel committee to perform the interviews and recommendations
for appointments to the planning commission and park board. The
personnel committee shall interview the applicants, although the
committee reserves the right to make recommendations after reviewing
applications and without conducting interviews. Subsequent to the
personnel committee's review, the personnel committee shall make a
recommendation of appointment to the Council.
2. After the personnel committee has forwarded it's recommendation for
appointment to the Council, the City Council will be given copies of all
applications. The City Council will be given at least ten days to review
the applicants' and the committee's recommendation prior to the
meeting at which the Council will be asked to confirm the appointment.
3. Decision and Announcement. Each applicant will be notified by mail of
the decision after Council confirmation has been made. The city clerk
will also notify the chair of the affected board or commission of its
decision.
E. Council Members' Role and Relationship with City Advisory Bodies
Council members, in their capacity as private citizens, should refrain from
providing testimony in legislative or administrative matters pending before
any advisory board that will receive, or could potentially receive, future
review or other action before the Council. Where a Council member elects
to provide such testimony, the following rules shall apply:
11
ITEM OB-5
1. The Council member shall declare at the outset and upon the record that
the Council member is present in his or her private capacity as an
interested citizen, and not on behalf or at the request of the City Council.
2. The Council member shall refrain from stating or implying that the Council
member's position or opinion is that of the City Council.
3. The Council member shall refrain from directing city staff or the advisory
body to take any action on behalf of the Council member.
4. The Council member shall observe any rules of procedure or protocol that
apply to any other private citizen testifying before the advisory board.
Chapter 3
TRAVEL POLICY
Members of the City Council, City boards and commissions are subject to the
following travel policy:
A. Travel Involving an Overnight Stay
All reasonable transportation expenses for approved travel (as defined in the
following paragraphs) will be reimbursed. Any travel involving an overnight stay
should have the prior approval of the City Manager.
Elected and appointed officials should endeavor to attend training and
conferences in the state whenever possible, if such training or conference is of
comparable value to that offered out of state.
Anyone traveling on city business on a trip that involves an overnight stay shall
submit a travel authorization form to the finance department. The travel
authorization form will include a complete estimate of the costs of the trip,
including conference registration, transportation, lodging, meals, vehicle rentals,
and incidentals. The travel authorization form will also include the purpose of the
trip, the dates of travel, and other pertinent details.
The completed travel authorization form, including the appropriate authorizing
signatures, must be submitted to the finance department before departure. The
City Manager will authorize travel expenses within the legislative budget
approved by the Council. The City Manager will authorize:
a. Overnight travel by elected or appointed officials
b. Use of a rental vehicle by elected or appointed officials
c. Out-of-state travel by elected or appointed officials
d. Any interpretations to the policies stated herein
12
ITEM OB-5
B. Reimbursement of Travel Expenses
A fully itemized claim for expense reimbursement, along with any unexpended
portion of the advance, must be submitted to the finance department within 15
calendar days of the close of the authorized travel period for which expenses
have been advanced. Any amounts not accounted for within the 15-day period
shall bear interest at the rate of 10 percent per annum from the date of default
until paid (RCW 42.24.150).
1. Transportation Costs - Reimbursement costs for transportation will be
at the cost of the most reasonable means of transport. For example,
airline costs will be reimbursed at a coach rate. If an elected or
appointed official chooses to fly first class, the City will reimburse only
at the coach rate and the official must pay for the difference. Efforts
should be made to book air travel at least two weeks or more in
advance to take advantage of lower rates. Frequent flyer miles earned
accrue to the individual and not the City, but should not be the criteria
for selecting a flight if lower-cost alternatives are available.
2. Hotel/Motel Accommodations —Actual and necessary hotel/motel
accommodations will be reimbursed or paid in advance, limited to the
maximum single-room rate of the specific hotel or motel. A vendor's
receipt is required for all accommodations. In the event the receipt
includes non-reimbursable expenses, the claimant shall be responsible
for such expenses. Government or discount rates should be obtained
wherever possible.
3. Individual Meals - Same Day Travel - Reasonable costs of necessary
meals while conducting city business are reimbursable, to the following
maximum amounts*, including tip:
Breakfast - $ 10.00 Lunch - $20.00 Dinner - $30.00
These amounts are reviewed annually by the finance director and may be
adjusted from time to time by resolution of the City Council. For travel to high-
expense areas, i.e., Washington, DC, meals may be reimbursed at a higher
rate than the amounts listed above, subject to prior approval of the City
Manager.
Receipts must accompany all reimbursement claims.
The cost of meals for official functions (political or professional
organizations - usually include speaker and/or room rental) will
be paid at full actual cost, even if the cost exceeds the rates
above.
13
ITEM OB-5
Tips are allowable up to 15% and should be considered as a
part of the maximum allowable amount.
Reimbursement will not be paid for alcoholic beverages.
Reimbursement will not be paid for expenses for spouses,
guests, non-employees, or other persons not authorized to
receive reimbursement under this policy or state regulations.
Reimbursement may be claimed by one person for several
employees or officials eating together, as long as all the names
are listed on the reimbursement claim.
4. Per Diem for Out-of-Town, Overnight Meals. When traveling out of
town overnight, officials will receive a per diem allowance for meals
rather than submitting a request for individual meal reimbursements.
The daily per diem rates for meals shall be sixty dollars, tip included. If
meals are provided as part of the registration fee, no per diem will be
paid for those meals. Officials can claim the daily per diem rates only
for those meals they pay for directly.
5. Incidental Expenses - Reasonable costs for parking, taxis, buses,
rental cars (if necessary), etc., will be paid if itemized on the claim form
and accompanied by a receipt. Use of rental cars must have prior
approval via the travel authorization form. The cost of long distance
telephone calls to the City for city business will be reimbursed, and one
telephone call home per day of reasonable length (i.e., 15 minutes) will
be reimbursed.
6. Personal Vehicles - Mileage for the pre-approved use of personal
vehicles will be reimbursed at the IRS allowable mileage rate. City
officials using their personal vehicle from home to a destination
different from their usual work site are reimbursed for miles driven in
excess of their usual commute to and from work. The IRS rate will be
published by the finance director by memo at the beginning of each
calendar year. All officials using their personal vehicles for city
business must file proof of liability insurance with the finance director.
7. Reporting of Actual Expenses - All actual eligible expenses should be
reported on an expense reimbursement request form to be filled out by
the official within 15 calendar days after completion of travel. Receipts
must be attached for all expenses claimed. Expense reimbursement
requests should be signed by the same party originally approving the
travel and filed with the finance department for processing.
14
ITEM OB-5
Chapter 4
CONFLICTS OF INTEREST
The conflict of interest law is one of the most complicated laws on the books. It is
intended to ensure citizens that the judgment of public officers and employees is
not compromised or affected by inappropriate conflicts. Violation is a criminal
offense. To keep standards of conduct uniform throughout the State, no local
government may regulate conflict of interest more strictly than the Revised Code
of Washington. In basic interpretation, the law requires all Council members to:
Disclose financial interests each year.
Refrain from contracting for business with the local government.
Abstain from voting on items of personal interest that apply solely to the
Council member or that prevent impartial voting.
Not engage in unethical conduct, such as accepting anything of value or
disclosing confidential information.
To understand its effect on a Council member's actions, it is suggested that
members discuss the law and potential conflicts with a private attorney or, the
city attorney.
Chapter 5
INTERACTION WITH CITY STAFF/OFFICIALS
5.01 Overview
City Council policy is implemented through dedicated and professional staff.
Therefore, it is critical that the relationship between Council and staff be well
understood by all parties so policies and programs may be implemented
successfully. To support effective relationships, it is important that roles are
clearly recognized.
5.02 City Council/City Manager Relationship
The employment relationship between the City Council and City Manager honors
the fact that the City Manager is the chief executive of the City. All dealings with
the City Manager, whether in public or private, should respect the authority of the
City Manager in administrative matters. Disagreements should be expressed in
policy terms, rather than in terms that question satisfaction with or support of the
City Manager.
15
ITEM OB-5
The City Council will evaluate the City Manager on an annual basis to ensure
that both the City Council and City Manager are in agreement about performance
and goals based upon mutual trust and common objectives. The City Manager's
performance shall be evaluated in the following areas: leadership, teamwork, job
knowledge, attitude, accountability, communication, problem-solving skills,
quality of service, safety/risk-taking, implementation and administration of
adopted Council policy.
5.03 City CounciVCity Staff Relationship
City Council member contact with city staff members, inclusive of the City
Manager, will be during regular business hours, except in the case of an
emergency. The City Council is to work through the City Manager when dealing
with administrative services of the City. In no manner, either directly or indirectly,
shall a Council member attempt to influence personnel matters that are under the
direction of the City Manager.
5.04 City Attorney
Pursuant to recommendation of the City Manager, the City Council shall make
provision for obtaining legal counsel for the City, either by appointment of a city
attorney on a full-time or part-time basis, or by any reasonable contractual
arrangement for such professional services. At present, the city attorney is a
contract employee appointed by the City Manager; such contract is confirmed by
the City Council. The city attorney is the legal advisor for the Council, its
committees, commissions and boards, the City Manager, and all city officers and
employees with respect to any legal question involving an official duty or any
legal matter pertaining to the affairs of the City.
It is important to note that the city attorney does not represent individual
members of Council, but rather the City as a corporate entity.
Chapter 6
CITY COUNCIL MEETINGS
The City Council's collective policy and law-making powers are put into action at
the Council meetings. It is here that the Council conducts its business. The
opportunity for citizens to be heard, the availability of local officials to the
citizenry, and the openness of Council meetings all lend themselves to the
essential democratic nature of local government.
6.01 Meeting Schedule
Regular meetings are held the second Monday of each month at 6:30 p.m., in
the Council chambers, 501 Evergreen Point Road, Medina, as provided in
16
ITEM OB-5
MMC 2.04. Should these days happen to be designated as a legal holiday;
the council meeting will be held the next business day.
6.02 Special Meetings
Special meetings may be called by the Mayor or by a majority of the members
of the Council by delivering written notice personally, by mail, by fax, or by
electronic mail to each member of the governing body; and to each local
newspaper of general circulation and to each local radio or television station
which has on file with the Council a written request to be notified of such
special meeting or of all special meetings.
6.03 Study Sessions
The City Council may meet informally in a study session. The study session is
the forum used by Council to review forthcoming programs of the City, to
receive progress reports on current issues, or to receive similar information
from the City Manager and others. All discussions and conclusions held
during a workshop are of an informal nature. Generally, final action is not
taken while in a study session unless delayed action may result in adverse
consequences.
6.04 Agenda
The City Manager and Mayor will review the agenda prior to the regular
meeting.
A Council member may request an item be considered on a future agenda
either by making a motion at a City Council meeting. The item shall then
be placed on the agenda as a "motion for consideration" of the item at said
meeting or at a later meeting. The motion shall then be discussed and
voted upon by the Council.
6.05 Council Meeting Rules for Council Members
A. Council members shall act in a courteous, professional and respectful
manner toward each other, the staff and the public.
B. Council members shall use their best efforts to maintain a balanced
perspective and a sense of humor in conducting the public's business.
Council members shall not surprise one another or staff at a public
meeting with anything that could be discussed beforehand so that
17
ITEM OB-5
Councilmembers and staff can be prepared to respond in a reasonable
manner.
Council members speak with one voice once a vote has been taken and
do not work to undermine the decision of the Council. The Council moves
forward expeditiously without rehashing previously discussed information
or engaging in conversation with the public during the business meeting.
6.06 Council Meeting Rules for Members of the Public
A. Written Communications. All persons may address the Council by written
communications, including via e-mail. Written communications pertaining
to items subject to a public hearing will be made a part of the public
record.
B. Oral Communications. City Council meetings are recorded. Each person
addressing the Council at a regular meeting will do so from the podium
and will speak in an audible tone of voice.
1. Prior to making comments each speaker shall first give his/her
name and address.
2. Comments shall be limited to three minutes unless a greater
length of time is requested and approved by the Mayor.
3. All remarks will be addressed to the Council as a body and not
to any member thereof. No comments shall be directed to staff.
4. All remarks shall be courteous and respectful.
5. Comments or questions requiring a response shall be referred
to the City Manager, if appropriate.
6. 07 Council Rules for Interacting with Staff
