HomeMy WebLinkAbout05/03/1976 Business Meeting 1 90 MAY 3, 1976 The City Council met in session at 1:30 P.M. on this date at Fire Station No. 5, 807 E. Nob Hill Boulevard, Yakima, Washington. Councilmen present at the meeting were Jean Allard, Mayor Betty L. Edmondson, Ralph Holbrook, W. K. "Pete" Moore, Dr. Bill Simmons, Nadine Walker and Gordon Wonder. Fire Chief Ed Carroll and Alarm Supervisor Bruce Belfield reviewed the proposed fire alarm utility concept. As proposed, the alarm utility is directed towards providing selected buildings in the City with automatic extinguishing, early warning direct alarm reporting capabilities. The system would provide a means whereby automatic detection devices such as sprinkler systems, smoke and heat detectors and other similar mechanical detection operations can rapidly and automatically transmit an alarm to the Fire Department. Under this system, buildings would contain additional equipment that connects a fire protection system to a street alarm box. Activation of the sprinkler or detection device would automatically be transmitted to the Fire Department via the street alarm box. Additionally, a malfunction in the system would also be transmitted. The Council was advised that present transmitters in the building and the street alarm box, costs $650 each. Under a new system a different box would be used costing $75 each, which would also provide for notification of other emergencies such as Police and medical. In addition, the new box there permits adding additional signals for other emergency agencies. The type of system currently in use in Yakima is telegraph, which would continue and would be compatible with two-way voice communication. The recommended fire alarm utility program would establish system responsibilities for private users, such as providing maintenance and repair, and a reporting transmitter device; the City would provide inspection and testing and service and maintenance of reporting system devices and circuits. Approximately 100 boxes would be installed in Fire Zones 1 and 2 in the City, covering essentially the east side downtown area. The system further contemplates charges in Fire Alarm Code provisions and establishes user costs. For example, in a sprinkler system there would be a one-time transmitter and installation fee together with monthly service charges for the lines, tests and inspections. Approximately $40,000 of initial capital investment by the City would be required for receiving equipment. Installation may be accomplished with existing personnel. The Chief emphasized that aside from the distinct advantages of the early warning protection system there was a strong potential for reduction in insurance premiums among the buildings converting to this type of system and from this standpoint the Fire Department expects industry support for the concept. The Chief advised the Council that the next step in progressing towards implementation of the concept would be to hold meetings with members of the business community to review the program and obtain their input. Council members expressed general support for the concept and asked that together with contacting the business community, that the insurance community be invited to examine the proposal and assist in its evaluation. The Fire Chief indicated that this would be done. In responding to additional questions on costs, the Chief explained that the average building would be subject to approximately $2,500 in costs including the trans- mitter, installation fees and monthly service charges; balanced against this would be a reduction in insurance premiums. In considering these costs the Mayor expressed the hope that business- men would be informed about the opportunity to prorate installment costs over a specified period of time. Subsequently, after further consideration, it was MOVED by Ralph Holbrook, seconded by Pete Moore that the Fire Alarm Utility Concept be endorsed and the Department be directed to meet with the business and insurance representatives to evaluate the proposal 191 MAY 3, 1976 and that secondly, the Manager be directed to examine the possible funding sources for the $40,000 of initial capital investment that may be required by the City: carried, Allard, Edmondson, Holbrook, Moore, Simmons, Walker and Wonder voting aye by voice vote. Councilman Jean Allard also recommended that in its evaluation, the Department consider one building and make a complete analysis as to the advantages and costs involved in such a conversion. The Fire Chief next reviewed the elements of a proposed Fire Alarm Connection Agreement which would accompany the extension of Fire Alarm Systems of this nature to the users of private alarm connection circuits. Considering this subject, Ralph Holbrook was concerned about the element of the contract relating to the Fire Department's "right of entry" into buildings. The Chief assured the Council that "right of entry" was restricted under the Municipal Fire Code Provisions and that nothing beyond what was allowed would be permissable in the context of this agreement. The Chief also indicated that although there may be some desirability in offering connections of this type to private residences, it would be some years before this would become possible and there was a strong likelihood that such connections would be regulated extensively. After further discussion, it was MOVED by Pete Moore, seconded by Ralph Holbrook that the proposed connection agreement be referred to the Legal Department for analysis and preparation: carried, Allard, Edmondson, Holbrook, Moore, Simmons, Walker and Wonder voting aye by voice vote. Finally the Council informally discussed the proposed surplusing of the Fire Training Center with the Chief explaining that this particular land was no longer suitable for fire training purposes and other arrangements were being developed. The matter was set aside pending further discussion and evaluation at the regular agenda meeting at 3:00 P.M. At 3:00 P.M., the Council members returned to the Council Chambers in City Hall for the balance of the meeting, Mayor Edmondson presiding, Councilmen Allard, Holbrook, Moore, Simmons, Walker and Wonder, City Manager McMicken and City Attorney Andrews present on roll call. The Invocation was given by Councilman Allard. The Minutes of the previous meeting of April 26, 1976 having been duly certified accurate by two Councilmen and no one present wishing to have said minutes read publicly, Mayor Edmondson declared said minutes approved as recorded. At this time, the Council heard a report from the Capitol Theatre Committee regarding funding for reconstruction of the Capitol Theatre. Mr. Frank Bradley, President of the Capitol Theatre Committee, being present, reviewed the written public statement to the Council dated May 3, 1976. He emphasized the need for a performing arts theatre in Yakima with the stage capabilities of the Capitol Theatre. He reviewed the proposal to reconstruct the Capitol Theatre in two Phases, to include first, an elementary theatre building containing stage elements necessary for performing arts and audience comfort, to include expanded basement areas with larger restroom facilities, larger orchestra pit, areas for a "green room", concession facilities, and a continental seating arrangement. The mechanical and electrical systems will also be improved 1_92 MAY 3, 1976 and many inherent problems of the old building will be solved at a reduced cost. Mr. Bradley explained that the second phase includes complete or modified historical restoration with expanded technical capabilities. The estimated cost for Phase One is $2,200,000, with approximately $1,000,000 in insurance proceeds available, requiring a $1,200,000 balance to obtain necessary funds to complete Phase One. Mr. Herb Frank, Capitol Theatre Committee, being present, reviewed the following specific request addressed to the City Council: 1. Call for documents and resolutions for Council consideration and action no later than May 24, 1976. 2. Council formation of a planning committee to facilitate a joint effort in preparing the community to announce a $1,200,000 campaign to reconstruct the Theatre. The organizing committee of the Capitol Theatre Fund proposed the following: 1. A joint effort to mobilize and prepare the community to announce on May 24 a $1,200,000 campaign to reconstruct the Capitol Theatre. 2. The City Council consider at least a $600,000 commitment to the project, subject to the private sector's ability to raise additional funds. 3. Upon the Council's tentative approval, a Capitol Theatre Trust Fund be established and proceed to solicit pledges from private sources. With adequate progress, it is request- ed that a definite resolution be passed by the Council no later than May 24. In response to a question from Councilman Wonder, Mr. Frank indicat- ed that consideration has been given to contacting the County; however, this presentation is felt to be the appropriate first step, since the City owns the building. After discussion, it was MOVED by Moore, seconded by Walker that the Council accept the report of the Capitol Theatre Committee and that the Mayor be directed to appoint a three-member Council committee to pursue this matter and report back, to include an investigation of City sources of funding: carried, Allard, Edmondson, Holbrook, Moore, Simmons, Walker and Wonder voting aye by voice vote. In response to a letter received from Mr. Carl Rizzo, 608 West Lincoln Avenue, it was MOVED by Simmons, that a public hearing on the Pierce-Lincoln Couplet system be referred to staff and that staff proceed and report back as soon as possible to the Council regarding this matter. The Motion lost for want of a second. Mr. Francis Palmer, 707 N. Front Street, submitted a petition from citizens opposed to the traffic dividers located at the corners of N. 7th Avenue, Pierce and West "B" Street, and the corner of West Lincoln and Pierce. Mr. Palmer explained that the traffic is quite bad in the area of these diverters and that pedestrians cannot get across the street as well as handicapped persons, who have to climb over the dividers. He also indicated alot of accidents occur with these dividers, suggesting that traffic should proceed to 5th Avenue on Lincoln and also return Lincoln and "B" to two-way streets. Mr. Palmer explained that the divider forces eastbound traffic to use Pierce Avenue, which involves a 90° turn. Mr. Lynn Buchanan, Buchanan Auto Freight, being present, spoke to the problems with large semi-trucks trying to proceed around this corner, noting it has been necessary to project onto the sidewalk approximately 3 feet, which presents a problem for truck drivers coming down Summitview and Lincoln, since they cannot utilize Yakima Avenue. MAY 3, 1976 He explained that prior to installation of the diverters, truck drivers proceeded down Lincoln to 5th Avenue which idid not pose as much of a problem. Mary Ann Palmer, 115 N. 7th Avenue, explained that she lives on the corner and related several dates on which traffic accidents have occured at this location. After discussion, it was MOVED by Wonder, seconded by Moore that the Council call for a public hearing to discuss the Lincoln-"B" Couplet and the Lincoln-"B" one-way street system, obtain staff input and investigate possible changes: carried, Allard, Edmondson, Holbrook, Moore, Simmons, Walker and Wonder voting aye by voice vote. Councilman Moore indicated opposition I/ to traffic screening devices which necessitates traffic inter- changing lanes. Referring to the letter received from ; Mr. Carl Rizzo, he felt that though Mr. Rizzo's businesses : located at 604, 606 and 608 West Lincoln Avenue are small, their importance to the community cannot be minimized and expressed concern for the problems created by the diverters for persons living in this area. He noted that Lincoln .:from Pierce to 40th is already two-way. Councilman Moore felt that the staff should also consider the alternatives of a 'couplet at 6th Avenue, a couplet at 5th Avenue, leaving as is,-or a return to two-way streets. After due discussion, it was the consensus of the Council that a Hearing be 'held on May 24, 1976 and staff proceed with mailing Hearing notices. This being the time set for a Hearing on Petition No. !815, filed by Jesse M. Moore and Others, requesting annexation of property located south of Tieton Drive and east of South !48th Avenue to South 45th Avenue, Associate Planner Glenn Rice 'reviewed the Planning Staff Report and Planning Commission Minutes on this subject dated April 1 and April 6, 1976, respectively.

Moore and Mr. Lee Campbell request annexation of approximately 30 acres near the western ! fringe of the City at the above location in order to construct la Planned Development and gain the full range of City services. The Planning Staff recommends annexation and zoning of Planned 'Development for the following reasons: 1. The desire of the property owners to annex to the City of Yakima. 2. The logical service area represented by this proposal. 3. The recommendations of the Yakima County Water and Sewer Study, the Yakima County Comprehensive Plan, the Yakima City General Plan and the Yakima City Planning Commission. 4. The need for and availability of the full range of urban services. Councilman Allard questioned whether there was any plan to four-lane Tieton from 42nd to 48th Avenues.

Mr. Haddix explained that the applicant requests a rezone from B-2 to B-1 in order to ,construct an apartment house above his office complex. He explained that although the rezone could technically be considered as spot , zoning, the staff feels that down zoning to a more restrictive use is of benefit to the neighborhood, providing a core support role.
