“And I just have a couple of picky things. On page eight, under 2047-005, description and purpose. The last sentence... Where does it start? Wow, that's a run-on sentence. The FPO overlay... Can we just take out overlay and all of those? There's a few of them in there. ...are intended to allow certain events... Uses are no more disruptive to existing residential uses than is necessary as consistent with the comprehensive... Who decides what's necessary? I'm very... stressed by those kind of vague words. So I don't know if there's a better way to put that. I certainly don't have a suggestion. I…”

“And Commissioner, just so you know, this is in every jurisdiction, every single jurisdiction and specifically like historic districts and things like that have very specific elevation requirements, variations in elevations, how many different materials you have to have on a facade. You know, there are a lot of things that doesn't specifically it's not like an HOA that says you can only paint in these colors, but it definitely provides very clear guidelines when you're designing. Commissioner Crosby. Oh, I'm sorry. Go ahead.”

“Developers also are on the hook for traffic impact fees, and a lot of that goes direct, I mean, all of it goes directly back into the community. And also street improvements, not just the streets, but the entire frontage improvement usually is on the developer as well, putting in curbs, putting in landscape strips, doing all of that lighting, the whole bit is part of that package. So it's not just our budget that's on the hook. And believe me, I don't always agree with the traffic impact fees. I think that they are incredibly prohibitive for small projects. But I mean, there are funds there…”

“Well, and I think also the parking overlay and opening up these lots on items that are not specifically fair adjacent does then, I think as was mentioned already, we're used to the traffic. I mean, I live a block from the fair now. I'm used to it during September. I'm used to it during February and the odd days when graduation is going on or whatever else. I don't want it all year round because all these other parking lots are now open and the fair can be doing other things. So, I mean, I do think that's a concern.”

“I think we're all in agreement then that we would like to add that second meeting. Does it need to be an official motion?”

“Vice Chair? Nothing at this time. And I'm going to take us completely away from all of this. On August 30th, the last Sunday of the month, at Old Town Dock, which is the first dock as you enter Reston Way, from 9.15 until 12.15, there is a dive cleanup, a group of divers from... I believe it's underwater sports in Tacoma as well as some of their other chapters. We'll be diving in the Sound and bringing up a whole bunch of bottles and PVC pipe and anything else that doesn't belong in the Sound. We need volunteers for the ground crew because when they bring that up there's a lot of critters in…”

“I don't think we are allowed to have questions at this point, but we thank you for your time and you definitely came to the right agenda. Thank you. Are there any other folks present that would like to speak this evening? I'm going to take that as a no and we'll move on. Moving on to the public hearing. The next item on the agenda is proposed code amendments. Urban agriculture uses in single family residential zones.

“So I have just a couple of comments and I'm definitely in favor as well. Um, but I just wanted to provide a little, get a little clarification. I was at a, I attended a city council meeting last night at the city of Sammamish and the sort of backwards of what I'm asking now, um, they are granting a one time per owner. remodel and rebuild. But the question was, how do we track an owner? So if they wanted to do a remodel per owner and then the wife wanted to do a remodel, they just do a quick claim and now we have a new owner on the house. So my question is sort of the opposite of that. If we…”

“So basically, though, it would come down to if there's a violation. If there's not a violation, then somebody living outside can continue business as usual.”
