MAY 18, 1999
7. CONSIDERATION OF REPORT REVIEWING TRAFFIC CALMING DEVICES ON
SCENIC DRIVE
Shelley Willson, Streets and Traffic Operations Manager,
introduced Derik Leavitt, an intern at Public Works.
Mr. Leavitt, who has been working on the Scenic Drive traffic
calming device issue, reported that a survey was recently taken,
which resulted in a two- thirds vote to retain the speed humps
versus having them removed.
Council Members Barnett and Klingele raised some questions and
requested clarification about the traffic count and its impact
to Scenic Drive.
Mayor Puccinelli invited testimony from the audience, and
Council Member Sims requested speakers indicate whether they are
a City or a County resident and the proximity of their residence
to the featured issues.
Helen Riehl, 714 North 56 Avenue, living adjacent to Scenic
Drive; Doug McDonald, 5207 Scenic Drive; and Nancy Booth, 6302
Scenic Drive spoke in favor of keeping the traffic calming
devices. They feel the speed humps have been successful. Rick
Low, 711 Scenic Bluff Drive; Neal Coffey, 7001 Englewood; Dick
Haugen, 7605 North Scenic Drive; Deb Huck, 6103 Scenic Drive,
and Charles Flower, speaking on behalf of Norm Richardson, spoke
against keeping the traffic calming devices. They feel the
speed humps have been a nuisance.
Gary O'Halloran, 710 Scenic Bluff Drive, reported that he did
not participate in the petition process. He noted that he has
improved portions of the side of Scenic Drive adjacent to his
property. He also provided details of incidents with
pedestrians on Scenic Drive not obeying the traffic laws.
Al DeAtley a county property owner, feels people should walk on
the Greenway instead of Scenic Drive. He feels the recent
closing of the left -turn lane on Ackley Road onto Highway 12
will impact the traffic on Scenic Drive.
Bob Hall, 7488 Scenic Drive, suggested leaving the speed humps
on each end and removing the speed humps from the middle. This
would protect the intersection and get the attention of the
drivers without having to increase the law enforcement effort in
the area. Shelley Willson explained that further study needs to
be done to determine what impact the two remaining speed humps
would have on reducing speeding. She also related how the
survey ballots were processed to ensure fairness in the survey.
•

MAY - 18, 1999
She explained that sidewalks and pathways were also considered
in the past, but the costs are too high. Council Member Sims
recollected that this item first came up because of the safety
factors within the area. There was continued discussion among
Council members and staff about the traffic calming measures on
Scenic Drive.
Lynne Kittelson, North 9th Street, feels pedestrians' rights
should be protected and should receive more attention.
Dennis Richardson, whose parents live on Scenic Drive, spoke
against the speed humps. He questioned whether money should be
spent on this issue at all. Shelley Willson explained that 32
neighborhoods have asked for traffic calming devices and
referred to the guidelines and a policy adopted by the Council,
which includes several other types of speed calming devices
besides speed humps. It was MOVED BY PLACE, SECONDED BY
BARNETT, TO ADOPT BOB HALL'S SUGGESTION TO REMOVE THE THREE
CENTER SPEED HUMPS AND LEAVE THE TWO ON EACH END TO PROTECT THE
INTERSECTION. There was continued discussion about the survey
and whether removing three speed humps from the middle would
lose the traffic calming effect of the program. The question
was called for a vote on the motion. The motion carried by a 4-
3 roll call vote; Buchanan, Sims, and Beauchamp voting nay.
8. CONSIDERATION OF RESOLUTION CALLING FOR A SPECIAL ELECTION ON
FLUORIDATING PUBLIC AND PRIVATE DOMESTIC WATER SUPPLIES INSIDE
THE CITY LIMITS
City Manager Zais provided some background information about the
fluoridation ballot measure that may go before the voters on
November 2, 1999. The Council extensively discussed this issue
during a special Study Session on April 6, 1999 that included
presentations from both sides of the issue. On April 20, the
Council-directed staff to prepare the question for a public vote
in conjunction with the General Election. The basic premise of
Council's decision is that the citizens have a right to choose
whether or not to fluoridate the public water supply, and the
proposed resolution specifies why the matter should be put to
the voters to choose.
City Attorney Paolella explained that the ballot title options
for the proposition were written with the assumption to support
the findings of the people. The selected title is what will be
printed in the voters' pamphlet. City Manager Zais noted that
the ballot title could be framed in a variety of formats, but
assured the Council that the following three optional ballot
titles included for Council consideration meet the legal
standard of accuracy, objectivity, and clarity:
4
475
MAY 18 . 1999
OPTION ONE
•
PROPOSITION
Shall all water supply systems that provide drinking water to
fifteen or more service connections within the City of Yakima be
fluoridated according to state standards as a public health and
safety regulation, all as more fully provided in Resolution No.
of the Yakima City Council?
OPTION TWO
PROPOSITION
Shall all public and private potable water supplies within the
City of Yakima be fluoridated according to state standards as a
public health and safety requirement, all as more fully provided
in Resolution No. of the Yakima City Council?
OPTION THREE
PROPOSITION
Shall water rates be increased to fluoridate public and private
potable water supplies within the City of Yakima as a public
health and safety requirement according to state standards, all
as more fully provided in Resolution No. of the Yakima City
Council?
Council Member Klingele pointed out that he was familiar with at
least two community water systems within the city limits that
would be affected by this, and there might be others to
consider.
Jeffrey Hagen, 221 Valley Vista Lane, directed attention to
several typographical errors within the proposed resolution,
indicating the correct figures or words to be used. Mr. Hagen
indicated that potential problems could develop with private
systems with only a few connections because smaller systems are
harder to control from a compliance standpoint. He suggested
that the limitation be 1000 people or more. He feels the first
option is the most reasonable. Ray Paolella, City Attorney,
provided an explanation concerning the Washington Administrative
Code (WAC) inclusion of different Class A and Class B water
systems. Jeff West, City Prosecutor, explained definitions of
Group A designations. Discussion continued about water system
designations, the content of the proposed ordinance as it
relates to the number of service connections, as well as
discussion about the filing deadline for the November election.
Dick Smith, speaking on behalf of Nob Hill Water, reported that
Nob Hill Water is very interested in this issue. Their biggest
concern is the cost if the City requires fluoridation. Since
most of the wells of Nob Hill Water are, for the most part,
5
476
MAY 18, 1999
naturally fluoridated, they will not oppose fluoridation and
will attempt to get along and do what they are required to do.
Mr. Smith indicated that option three is not acceptable, and
there was discussion about the costs associated with
fluoridation.
Council Member Klingele questioned the applicability of
" declaring an emergency" language in the resolution. There
was discussion about the state statute requirement for that
language when a special election is requested in conjunction
with the general election.
Dr. Russell Maier, a family physician in Yakima, spoke in favor
of fluoridation and urged the Council to meet the requirements
of the grant to fluoridate the city's drinking water. He feels
there are some issues that need further clarification, including
using the words " all people" instead of " children," as well
as clarifying other easily confusing issues. He urged the
Council to put the issue on the ballot in the 2000 election.
This would allow more time to complete the research necessary
and gather all the facts. Dr. Maier also questioned the
validity of the statement on osteoporosis, and indicated that
fluoride at 1 PPM does not decrease or increase its natural
affect as far as hip fractures. There was a brief debate about
the validity of the studies and whether a determination can be
made concerning both sides of the issue.
Doran Riehl, DDS, 7909 Englewood Avenue, spoke in favor of
fluoridating the water supply and urged the Council to put the
issue on the ballot during the 2000 election. He also supports
changing the wording in the resolution to include " all people"
instead of " children." Mayor Puccinelli strongly noted the
importance of education for not only dental health, but also
other health issues with negative statistics.
DeLoris Boaz, 102 Gilbert Drive, noted that the proposed
resolution indicates that the addition of hydrofluoric acid into
the City's drinking water supply may provide health benefits to
people who are at risk for dental cavities. She suggested that
instead of fluoridating the drinking supply, the public should
• be encouraged to use less white sugar and practice proper
nutrition to prevent dental decay.
John Vornbrock, 5802 Englewood Avenue, spoke in favor of
fluoridation and urged the Council to take' advantage of the
grant. If that's not possible, he urged the Council to put the
issue on the ballot in 2000, instead 1999.

MAY 1,84 1999
Melvin Carlson, 701 Pickens Road, also noted that the Nob Hill
Water system already has a beneficial amount of natural fluoride
in it. He invited Council Member Place to the Roosevelt School
where children will be given dental examinations. His -point is
that these are the folks to benefit by fluoridation.
Dave Brown, Water and Irrigation Engineer, indicated that there
are a number of Class A water systems within the City. He will
research the location and requirements for those systems and
provide that information to the Council. City Prosecutor West
will also gather additional information to refine the wording in
the proposed resolution. This information will be available for
the June 15, 1999 Business Meeting. For the sake of clarity,
there was continued discussion about the requirement to use
certified operators for systems with 100 connections or more.
It was the general consensus of the Council to further delay
discussion about the ballot measure until the June 15 Business
Meeting when staff will clarify the service connections issue
and refine the proposed resolution calling for a special
election.
9. CONSIDERATION OF AQUATIC OPTIONS FOR EASTSIDE POOLS
Denise Nichols, Parks and Recreation Manager, and Debbie
Wadleigh, Aquatic Program Supervisor, provided samples of single
swim passes to the Council. Those free passes will be issued as
an incentive for good attendance, to reward hard work, and
to encourage good behavior during summer school at Washington
and Barge- Lincoln Schools. The following is a list of the
proposed options to enhance the swimming programs at Miller and
Washington Pools: (1) longer recreational swims in the
afternoon. (2) special swim activity sessions with recreational
leaders. (3) a sponsorship /scholarship program for low - income
youth. (4) swim incentive passes (as mentioned above) for
teachers to use to encourage good work and good behavior. (5)
to consider purchasing a portable, small water slide to rotate
between the two eastside pools and to use at Lions Pool during
the winter season. The first three items have been instituted.
There was discussion among Council members about the water slide
request, with Council Member Place questioning whether Item 5
has been budgeted. Council Member Sims indicated this would be
a good opportunity to determine whether increased attendance can
be achieved with the money probably being made up through more
admissions. It was MOVED BY BUCHANAN, SECONDED BY BEAUCHAMP, TO
APPROVE ITEMS 4 AND 5. The motion carried by 6 -1 voice vote;
Place voting nay.
478
MAY 18, 1999
10. APPROVAL OF REPORT REGARDING REVISIONS TO 1999. PAVING AND STREET
REPAIR PROGRAMS AND STATUS OF STREETS MAINTENANCE ACTIVITIES
Bill Cook, Director of Community and Economic Development, and
Chris Waarvick, Public Works Director, were available to answer
questions about the street improvement program. Council Member
Barnett asked where on the list stands improvements to Mead
Avenue, from 4 to ll Avenues, and from 11 to 16 Avenues.
Mr. Cook referred to 11 to 16 Avenue projects and noted that
it is 36 on the Transportation Improvement Program (TIP)
unfunded project list, and perhaps that priority listing can be
reconsidered in June. Council Member Klingele referred to page
3 of the Dust Abatement list, listing South 17 Street, and
noted that portions of that project have already been asphalted.
It was MOVED BY BARNETT, SECONDED BY BUCHANAN, TO APPROVE THE
REPORT. The motion carried by unanimous voice vote.
