off-site flows tributary to the site and an infiltration system to handle such flows in accordance
with City standards", and (2) change the existing second sentence to read--"The applicant
proposes to collect all on-site drainage and direct it to the drainage pond at the south of the site
where it will then be piped under the road to an existing culvert".

preliminary plat resolution; second by Councilmember Templeton. Councilmember Gates

During discussion of the proposed minibus bid award under item "1" of the consent agenda,
Council member Gintz said he would like to negotiate with the King County Multi-Service Center
Van-Go program rather than expending City funds for a vehicle, and Deputy Mayor Marks
inquired about the use of CDBG monies for other programs if not specifically used for the
minibus purchase. Mr. McFall explained the vehicle would also be used for senior and other
Parks/Recreation programs, so would not be limited to only Human Services. Councilmember
Priest requested the use of Multi-Service Center's vehicles be thoroughly explored prior to the
Council's bid approval.
Motion by Council member Tomlinson to table item "1", refer it to the Administration/Public
Safety Committee for additional review and bring the committee's recommendation back to the
full Council on September 21st; second by Council member Gintz. Motion to table passed as

Ms. Middlebrooks and Human Services Manager Nita Richardson responded to Councilmember
inquiries and provided additional information on the proposed use of 1994 CDBG funds,
including capital projects, public service projects and planning/administration. Mr. McFall
explained it is necessary to designate the City's proposal in time for the Consortium's October

Recommendation for 1993 Emergency Shelter Services for Homeless Persons
Ms. Middlebrooks said the commission was unaware of the Homestart program's 501 IRS status
until introduced by Mr. Keeton this evening. In response to his request, she explained the
commission is concerned about the recent events involving the program and said the
commissioners are open to the possibility of reviewing and making funding recommendations
for Homestart at a later date, but do not feel comfortable in doing so at this time.
Motion by Councilmember Tomlinson to give $5,000 to the Federal Way Community Caregiving
Network (FWCCN) and $4,600 to the Homestart program, since the FWCCN did not make a
request for the additional available funding; second by Councilmember Gintz for discussion
purposes.
Mayor Stead said the Council's earlier request wasn't specific as to "single homeless men", and
said he would like to identify "single homeless people" in the program description. The Mayor
then presented a friendly amendment to reflect "single homeless people" status for the $5,000
funding recommendation to the FWCCN, and to specify the additional $4,600 funding to the
Homestart program for homeless men at the Carpenter House only shelter; the maker and second
of the main motion accepted the Mayor's friendly amendment.
Councilmember Templeton requested a 3-minute recess. Mayor Stead announced a short recess
at the hour of 8:57 p.m., and reconvened the regular meeting at 9:09 p.m..
