CALL TO ORDER The meeting was called to order at 5:35 pm by Chairman Phil Watkins. 2. APPROVAL OF MINUTES The minutes of the June 16, 1997, meeting were approved as presented. 3. PUBLIC COMMENT There was no public comment on items other than those included in the agenda. 4. BUSINESS ITEMS A. Non-Conformin~ Provision (code amendment) - A draft framework for bandling the non-conforming code provision has continued to evolve as a result of meetings with members of the development community, downtown property owners, Chairman Watkins and Mayor Priest. The Committee wants any negative connotation removed from code language in hopes of increasing incentive for development and redevelopment. The Committee's goal is to reward development for doing a better job than required and to encourage development without being onerous. For non-conforming water quality facilities, the Committee encouraged a "phased" schedule of compliance over, for example, a period of five years for larger projects with multiple surface water systems. A schedule of "phased" improvements for projects over an acre is recommended. Projects less than an acre would not be phased. Patrick Hughes of PageNet commented that compliance with water quality standards does not apply to telecommunications services. Joe McCarthy of Seattle added that water quality standards are pro1n"bitively expensive and unreasonable requirements may curtail very desirable redevelopment. Improving water quality at the source and clarifying the DOE definitions may assist the City in achieving its development goals. Staff will draft revised language on"non-conforming codes for review at the September meeting. B. Final Acceptance of 6th Avenue SW & C8ß\PUs Drive Construction Contract - The Committee m/s/c recommendation of approval to Council of acceptance of 6th Avenue SW and SW Campus Drive construction project as complete. The final cost for the project is $515,936.24, which is $31,308.42 below the approved construction contract budget of $547,244.66, including the 10% contingency. C. 1997 Asphalt Overlay Chan¡:e Orders - At the March 4, 1997, City Council meeting, staff presented Council with a proposed list of projects for the 1997 Asphalt Overlay program, which consisted of 13 schedules. Four of those schedules were deleted at the cost estimating stage to keep the project within budget. Staff has received the bids for the two deleted schedules based on contract unit prices from Lakeside Industries as follows: $43,414.77 was bid for Southwest 348th Street and $75,972.75 was bid for the Rainier Manor project. The Committee m/s/c recommendation to Council at the to approve adding schedules "J" and " K" into Lakeside Industries' contract for the 1997 Asphalt Overlay Project in the amount of $119,387.52 and approve a 10%contingency of $11,938.75. 5.

ADJOURN The meeting was adjourned at 8:50 pm . I: \LU- TRANS\1U1.21LUT.SUM DATE: July 29, 1997 TO: Phil Watkins, Chair Land Use/Transportation Committee FROM: Marwan Salloum, Acting Surface Water Manager David Renstrom, Water Quality Program Coordinator r SUBJECT: West Fork Hylebos Creek Rehabilitation Bid Award BACKGROUND As part of its 1997 Minor Capital Improvement Program, the Surface Water Management Division invited 29 small works roster contractors to bid on the above referenced project, as authorized by the City Council on June 17, 1997. On July 28, 1997, the City received one bid from Roadway Construction, Inc. for a total bid amount of $60,255.63. This bid amount is $10,502.63 more than the engineer's estimated construction cost of $49,753.00 for this project. Three other contractors responded that they were not able meet the time requirements of the project. Roadway Construction, Inc. is qualified to perform this project, having successfully performed a similar project on-time and under bid (Olympic View Park Stream Channel Stabilization) for the Surface Water Management Division in 1996. During the bid process, a permit for the work was obtained from the Washington State Department of Wildlife, a condition of which requires a full diversion of the stream for the duration of the project. The cost of this diversion was not considered in the engineer's estimate. The bidding contractor was aware of the diversion condition and structured his bid accordingly. The project corrects stream stability problems in some 830 feet of the West Hylebos by placement of rock and log weirs, cascades and deflectors, and installation of vegetative bank stabilization measures. The project will include cooperative work by the King Conservation District and World Conservation Corp, who will provide labor for noxious weed removal and control, revegetation, and hand placement of some stream features, and by the Natural Resources Conservation Service who prepared the revegetation plan. Despite the increased cost of this project, budgeted funds for 1997 within the Small Capital Improvement portion of the Surface Water Management Capital Project Fund are adequate to complete this and other planned projects. RECOMMRNDA TION Place the following item on the August 5, 1997 Council Business Agenda for approval: 1. Award the project to the lowest responsive, responsible bidder, RĊ“dway Construction Inc. in the amount of $60,255.63; approve a 10% construction contingency in the amount of $6,025.56, for a total approved construction budget amount of $66,281.19; authorize the City Manager to execute the contract.
