In addition, Oakbrook is in dire need of new road paving, with unsightly patches and potholes making for difficult driving. Many of us have questioned why some areas of Lakewood have been prioritized over Oakbrook for these improvements--when we travel through such areas, there is little or no residential housing around, in some cases; very few cars driving at night; and virtually no one walking down the beautiful new sidewalks! Why were these areas provided new lights, sidewalks, and road paving!? Oakbrook residents make up a good-sized portion of the population of Lakewood. Hardworking, taxpaying people who contribute much to the greater Lakewood community live here! It's time we received a fair share of the budgeted infrastructure improvements! We deserve to live in a safe, secure, and well-maintained neighborhood.

Since we will be out of state and not able to attend, please submit the following in our behalf: We have lived at our current address for the past 32 years. While many improvements have been accomplished, the most important ones to us by far is lack of sidewalks and lighting! The only way to walk our dog/s is either a dirt/mud path (limited areas) or share the road with traffic. I don't know how many council members are familiar with Onyx Drive SW from 87th Ave, but it can be a scary experience to share this 2 lane road with all sorts of heavy car & truck traffic! I feel so sad when I see a young Mother trying to navigate her child stroller in these conditions. The lack of lighting is sad indeed-In these days of high crime and drug trafficking, one would think street lighting would be a top priority-Yet Oakbrook has NONE!! Our family lived in many different parts of the world during my 30 years of service with the US Army-I don't recall any place where we had no side walks or had to walk in the dark in our housing areas. Why was Oakbrook developed without both?? We love our community and would live no place other-Is it too much to ask for safe walking paths and decent lighting? Respectfully Yours, William S & Margarethe Davis 7805 88th Ave SW Lakewood, Washington 98498 (253) 588-0738 028 To: Mayor and City Councilmembers From: John Cunningham, Interim Public Works Director Through: John J. Caulfield, City Manager Date: May 15, 2017 Subject: Draft 6-Year Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) (2018-2023) – Public Hearing Background Information Chapter 35.77.010 RCW requires that each city annually update its Six(6) -Year Transportation Improvement Program (TIP), and file a copy of the adopted TIP with the Secretary of the Washington State Department of Transportation within 30 days after its adoption. The current 6-Year TIP (2017-2022) was amended on February 21, 2017. As the current 2017-2022 TIP was amended recently, the Final Draft 2018-2023 6-Year TIP reflects that numerous projects will be completed in 2017, and as such these projects have been removed from the Final Draft 2018-2023 6- Year TIP. The Final Draft 6-Year TIP (2018-2023) has been presented to the Planning Commission twice, solicitation of comments from interested stake holders, and has been available on the City’s website. At this time no input has been received from either the public or the interested stakeholders regarding the Final Draft 2018-2023 6-Year TIP. Also, the Final Draft 2018-2023 6-Year TIP was presented to the City Council at the May 8th Council Study Session. The changes proposed in the Final Draft 2018-2023 6-Year TIP, not associated with project completion, are minor and consist of funding updates, splitting projects into phases, or project limit changes. These projects are listed below and highlighted in the Final Draft 6-Yr TIP (2018-2023) attached. • Project 1.20: 123rd St. SW – Bridgeport Way to 47th Ave. • Project 1.21: Split into 1.21A and 1.21B • Project 2.73: 112th/111th – Bridgeport Way to Kendrick St. • Project 6.2: New Street Lighting • Project 7.1: Bridge Inspection • Project 9.15: Lakewood Drive – Steilacoom Blvd. to N. City Limits 029 In addition to the projects listed above, staff initially proposed to remove three projects from the Final Draft 6-Yr TIP (2018-2023) based on each projects anticipated 2017 construction start schedule. However, these projects will either be continuing construction into 2018 or project construction will start in the first quarter of 2018. These three projects have been added back into the Final Draft 6-Year TIP (2018-2023) and are listed below. • Project 2.81: Roadway Safety Improvements at 40th Ave. SW and 96th St. SW • Project 3.20: Military Rd. and 112th St. Safety Improvement • Project 5.6A: Gravelly Lake Non-Motorized Trail – Phase 1 The 6-Year TIP is a longer term transportation planning document that is generally used for securing grant funding to help pay for the projects listed on the city’s most recently adopted version of the TIP. Implementation of the TIP occurs with City Council adoption of the city’s Biennial Budget and CIP (Capital Improvement Program/Plan). Finally, the adopted 6-Year TIP may be amended at any time by a majority of the City Council, but only after a public hearing. TIP amendments are generally only needed for the City to accept and utilize newly awarded grants and to modify various TIP project schedules in anticipation of new grants.

X ORDINANCE NO. 669 May 15, 2017 ATTACHMENTS: RESOLUTION Proposed Ordinance REVIEW: __ MOTION May 8, 2017 OTHER SUBMITTED BY: Matthew S. Kaser, Asst. City Attorney RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that the City Council approve revisions to the City’s Aggressive Begging Code and amend Section 10.14.050 relative to Pedestrain Interference. DISCUSSION: Following the consideration (and rejection) of Ordinance 660 relative to revising the City’s Aggressive Begging Code, codified at chapter 9A.04 LMC, the City’s Legal Department met with a representative of the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) to address First Amendment issues they believe were presented in the former Ordinance. Some of the concerns articulated by the ACLU have been addressed by the Washington Supreme Court in the Willis decision, while others are beyond the Court’s ruling. The attached proposed Ordinance addresses the results from the Willis decision, but not every concern expressed by the ACLU. (Cont. on following page). ALTERNATIVE(S): There are several options: 1. Amend the Code strictly in compliance with Willis. 2. Amend the Code beyond what Willis would require either (a) as requested by the ACLU; or (b) in some way other than as requested by the ACLU. FISCAL IMPACT: A direct financial impact is not anticipated. An indirect financial impact associated with criminal case prosecution including likely public defender costs and related Court costs. And, as stated in the study session, there is uncertainty and costs assocated with any court challenge. Matthew S. Kaser Prepared by City Manager Review Department Director 058 Discussion (Cont). This Ordinance does two things. First, it creates an offense of Pedestrian Interference. Second, it amends current LMC 9A.04.020A (Begging in Restrictive Areas) by deleting the two specific code sections which the Washington Supreme Court invalidated in City of Lakewood v. Robert Willis. Follow-Up From Study Session 1. Issues Relative to Intent. Council raised two issues with Section 1 of the draft Ordinance: (1) voluntary intoxication defenses; and (2) language including conduct which is “reasonably calculated,” to cause traffic interruptions. Alternative language was considered following Council’s comments. That language would have revised proposed LMC 10.14.050(B) to read, “No person shall intentionally or engage in such acts which are reasonably calculated to interrupt …” The term “reasonably calculated,” can require consideration of speech (in all of its forms) – which is expressly forbidden under Willis and Reed v. Town of Gilbert. While “reasonably calculated,” language is generally acceptable for many criminal statutes, where First Amendment rights are implicated, a specific mental state is required. “Reasonably calculated,” negates the mental state requirement. Similarly, voluntary intoxication may preclude the individual from forming the necessary intent to commit the crime. Case law establishes several factors before this defense may be employed. A criminal defendant is entitled to a voluntary intoxication instruction only if: (1) the crime charged has as an element a particular mental state, (2) there is substantial evidence of drinking, and (3) the defendant presents evidence that the drinking affected his or her ability to acquire the required mental state. The evidence “must reasonably and logically connect the defendant's intoxication with the asserted inability to form the required level of culpability to commit the crime charged. … Evidence of drinking alone is insufficient to warrant the instruction; instead, there must be ‘substantial evidence of the effects of the alcohol on the defendant's mind or body.’” State v. Gabryschak, 83 Wn.App. 249, 252–53, 921 P.2d 549 (1996) (citations omitted). 2. Follow-Up to “Bus Stop or Train Station,” Langauge. The language “bus stop, train station or in any public parking lot or structure or walkway dedicated to such parking lot or structure,” as a prohibited area was also examined in response to Council’s questions. To highlight a few exemples, the SR 512 Park and Ride and the Lakewood Sounder Station both contain a “bus stop or train station.” Both also contain a “public parking lot or structure,” where individuals can park their vehicles. The Sounder Station it contains a “walkway dedicated to such parking lot or structure,” in the form of a pedestrian overpass. 059 3. Question: What is the Washington Dept. of Transportion doing? Can we adopt anything by reference? WSDOT is covered by a separate sets of statutes. As it relates to freeways, such as Interstate 5, those roads are classified as “limited access highways.” As their name suggests, these roads are “especially designed or designated for through traffic, and over, from, or to which owners or occupants of abutting land, or other persons, have no right or easement,” excepting for a “limited right or easement of access, light, air, or view.” RCW 47.52.010 (Emphasis added). City streets, by contrast, are generally classified as “rights of way,” which contain easement rights and are frequently recognized as traditional public forums. Freeways themselves have been able to avoid being classified as public forums for First Amendment purposes due to their use. This is so because there are not “as compatible with the nature of expressive activity expected at a traditional public or designated public forum, such as assembly, debating, and protesting, as would be, for instance, a public square or park, because [the shoulder] is located on the shoulder of a major freeway with high-speed vehicular traffic.” San Diego Minutemen v. Cal. Bus., Transp. & Hous., 570 F. Supp. 2d 1229, 1250 (S.D. Cal. 2008)(citing, Hopper v. City of Pasco, 241 F.3d 1067, 1078 (9th Cir. 2001)). 4. What are other cities doing? Subsequent research revealed one other city has recently amended their begging/solication codes. The City of Spokane Valley which had a definition of “begging,” identical to Lakewood’s, renamed it “solicitation,” and redefined “solicit,” to mean: a. Either orally or in writing, directly or by implication, to ask, beg, request or plead for employment, goods, services, financial aid, monetary gifts, or any article representing monetary value, for any purpose; b. Either orally or in writing, to sell or offer for immediate sale goods, services, or publications; c. To distribute without remuneration goods, services, or publications; or d. To solicit signatures on a petition or opinions for a survey. Spokane Valley’s Code now prohibits solicaition done with the intent to intimidate another person into giving money or goods complying with the solicited request. This alternative remains to be tested under Reed. 060 ORDINANCE NO. 669 AN ORDINANCE of the City Council of the City of Lakewood, Washington, amending Section 9A.04.020A of the Lakewood Municipal Code; amending Section 10.14.050 related to Pedestrian Interference. WHEREAS, in July 2016, the Washington Supreme Court in City of Lakewood v. Willis, 186 Wn.2d 210, 375 P.3d 1056 (2016) invalidated two provisions of chapter 9A.04 of the City of Lakewood Municipal Code relative to Aggressive Begging as violating the First Amendment of the United States Constitution; and WHEREAS the purpose of streets, highways, and roads is to move people and goods both safely and efficiently, and streets, highways, and roads are not designed for the purpose of soliciting funds. Direct personal solicitation from drivers distracts them from their primary duty to watch the traffic and potential hazards in the road, observe all traffic control signals or warnings, and prepare to move through the intersection; and WHEREAS laws which are narrowly tailored to serve the significant governmental interest in traffic flow and roadway safety have been upheld, including a ruling from the Fifth Circuit of the United States Court of Appeals, which upheld an ordinance that prohibited individuals from soliciting the occupants of vehicles while the individual was in the street or roadway, street or roadway shoulder, or neutral ground of any street or roadway in International Society for Krishna Consciousness of New Orleans, Inc. v. City of Baton Rouge, 876 F.2d 494 (5th Cir. 1989); and WHEREAS legislation which prohibits pedestrians from entering traffic to approach traffic has been held to “serve[] a compelling interest at the heart of the government's function: public safety" in Houston Chronicle Publishing Co. v. City of League City, Texas, 488 F.3d 613 (5th Cir. 2007); and WHEREAS in the City of Lakewood, police documented thirty-four recorded accidents involving pedestrians in 2011. One pedestrian was killed in these accidents. Twenty-seven people were injured in these accidents; and WHEREAS in the City of Lakewood, police documented forty-three recorded accidents involving pedestrians in 2012. Thirty two-people were injured in these accidents; and WHEREAS in the City of Lakewood, police documented forty-three recorded accidents involving pedestrians in 2013. Thirty people were injured in these accidents; and WHEREAS in the City of Lakewood, police documented forty recorded accidents involving pedestrians in 2014, one of which was a fatality. Twenty-six people were injured in these accidents; and 061 WHEREAS in the City of Lakewood, police documented fifty-six recorded accidents involving pedestrians in 2015, one of which was a fatality. Thirty-four people were injured in these accidents; and WHEREAS in the City of Lakewood, police documented fifty-six recorded accidents involving pedestrians through mid-December 2016, one of which was a fatality. Thirty-three people were injured in these accidents; and WHEREAS the Lakewood Police Department received no less than 193 calls for service (CFS) for panhandling in 2011, 130 in 2012, 145 in 2013, 163 in 2014, 176 in 2015 and 83 CFS in 2016; and WHEREAS, a safety hazard has been identified with pedestrians attempting to interact with the drivers and passengers of vehicles at busy intersections within the City of Lakewood, including pedestrians leaving the edge of the curb and actively entering the roadway; and WHEREAS, the practice of pedestrians interacting with the drivers and passengers of vehicles while the pedestrian is in the roadway has been identified as being unsafe for both the pedestrians and for traffic in general; and WHEREAS, the practice of pedestrians interacting with the drivers and passengers of vehicles while the pedestrian is in the roadway constitutes an impediment to the normal and safe flow of traffic in the City of Lakewood; and WHEREAS, the City may impose reasonable time, place and manner restrictions in a traditional public forum that serve the City's significant public safety interests; and WHEREAS, the City finds that limiting the interaction between pedestrians and occupants of vehicles at intersections controlled by traffic signal lights promotes the safety of not only pedestrians but also vehicular traffic and, leaves open ample alternative channels of communication; NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF LAKEWOOD, WASHINGTON, DO ORDAIN as follows: Section 1: Section 10.16.050 LMC entitled “Pedestrian Obstruction of Traffic” is renamed “Pedestrian Obstruction in Roadways,” and amended to read as follows: It shall be unlawful for any pedestrian to walk or be on a public roadway in a manner which unnecessarily or unreasonably interferes with, delays, obstructs or halts the travel of vehicles over and/or across the public roadway. Violation of this section shall constitute a misdemeanor punishable by a fine not to exceed $1,000.00, in addition to other costs and assessments provided by law. A. As used in this section: 062 (1) “Curb” means the lateral lines of a roadway, whether constructed above grade or not, which are not intended for vehicular travel. (2) “Roadway” means that portion of the public street including the vertical airspace above such portion of the public street, which is improved, designed or ordinarily used for vehicular travel, exclusive of the curb, berm or shoulder. B. No person shall intentionally interrupt or obstruct the movement of vehicle or bicycle travel by walking on, standing on or going into any roadway used for vehicle or bicycle travel and contacting any vehicle, bicycle or occupant therein or halting the travel of such vehicle, bicycle or occupant therein. C. Any person who violates any of the provisions of this chapter shall be guilty of a misdemeanor. Section 2: Section 9A.04.020A LMC entitled “Restrictive Areas,” is amended to read as follows: Begging shall be deemed a violation of this section of the municipal code under the following conditions: (1) at on and off ramps leading to and from state intersections from any City roadway or overpass; (2) at intersections of major/principal arterials (or islands on the principal arterials) in the City; (31) within twenty five (25) feet of an ATM machine, or financial institution; (42) within fifteen (15) feet of any (a) occupied handicapped parking space, (b) taxicab stand, or (cb) bus stop, train station or in any public parking lot or structure or walkway dedicated to such parking lot or structure; (53) before sunrise or after sunset at any public transportation facility or on any public transportation vehicle or (64) while a person is under the influence of alcohol or controlled substances. Section 3: Severability. If any section, sentence, clause, or phrase of this ordinance should be held to be invalid or unconstitutional by a court of competent jurisdiction, such invalidity or unconstitutionality shall not affect the validity of any other section, sentence, clause, or phrase of this ordinance. Section 4: Effective Date. This ordinance shall become effective thirty (30) days after its publication or publication of a summary of its intent and contents. 063 ADOPTED by the City Council this 15th day of May, 2017.

X MOTION NO. 2017-25 May 15, 2017 ATTACHMENTS: “Lotus Blossom” conceptual design OTHER SUBMITTED BY: Dennis Higashiyama, Arts Commission Staff Liaison RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that the City Council authorize the City Manager to enter into an agreement with the artist Karsten Boysen in the amount of $80,000 for the construction of the “Lotus Blossom” sculpture for the intersection of Gravelly Lake Drive SW and Washington Blvd. SW. DISCUSSION: Through this project, the artist will construct the 8 foot tall sculpture and will assist in the design and construction of the circular concrete foundation upon which this sculpture will be mounted. In addition, the artist will also assist with lighting design for the site. ALTERNATIVE(S): This proposed sculpture was one of four recommended for consideration by the selection panel to the City Council. The sculpture was the top scoring proposal of the four recommended and was also the consensus selection of the City Council. It is especially well suited for this site because of it’s floral theme and proximity to Lakewold Gardens. FISCAL IMPACT: This project is funded from the public art fund which receives revenues from City rental days at the Sharon McGavick Conference Center. The staff liaison to the Arts Commission will serve as the point of contact for this project and will coordinate all aspects of construction and installation of the artwork. Prepared by City Manager Review Department Director 066 067 068 069 070 071 City of Lakewood Special Session Legislative Update May 15, 2017 The 2017 Legislative “regular” 105-day session ended on Sunday, April 23rd. However, the Legislature did not reach agreement on an Operating & Capital Budget, and a dozen other policy issues. The Governor called a special session which began on Monday, April 24th and is scheduled to last 30 days, or until the Legislature reaches an agreement on the budget and adjourns – whichever is sooner. If the Legislature does not finish its work within 30 days, the Governor would need to call a second special session. The Legislature needs to adopt a budget by June 30th in order to avoid a state government shut down. During most of special session, the majority of legislators are back in district while key budget writers remain in Olympia. The House Republicans and Democrats have agreed to an approach on who will be in the budget writing room. Under their agreement, there will be two legislators from each of the 4 caucuses that will participate in all the budget meetings. In addition to this group, the committee chair and ranking member from each subject area will join the meetings that cover relevant sections of the budget. In addition to budget negotiations, dozens of policy issues are likely to remain under consideration. In previous special sessions, a narrowed list of issues continued to be worked on. This year, that list is quite lengthy. Senate Capital Budget Committee Chair, Sen. Jim Honeyford (R-Yakima), indicated that he will not negotiate a Capital Budget until there is agreement on legislation that responds to the Hirst and Foster Supreme Court decisions regarding permit exempt wells and water availability. This issue and many other significant policies that were not resolved during the “regular” legislative session will be considered during special session. In the final week of the regular session, the Legislature adopted the final Transportation budget. The budget continues with the implementation of projects funded in the Connecting Washington package and is objectively non-controversial. Through the Safe Routes to School grant program, the City is scheduled to receive $535,000 for improvements to Gravelly Lake Drive. To view the final budget documents, click here. Update on Legislative Priorities Full Funding of Community Policing Program Both the House and Senate budget proposals include $621,000 for the Lakewood Community Policing Program at Western State Hospital! This is not a guarantee, but is a good indicator that full funding of the program will be included in the final budget. The House version of the budget includes some language requiring the Department of Social & Health Services (DSHS) to report on the number of calls from Western State responded to by the program. We are in the process of working with the City’s delegation to have the language amended so the report will be provided to DSHS by the City and encompass all the services provided by the program, not just response to calls. 1201 Pacific Ave, Suite 2100 203 Maryland Ave., NE Tacoma, WA 98401 www.gth-gov.com Washington, DC 20002 Phone: (253) 620-6500 Phone: (202) 544-2681 Fax: (253) 620-6565 Fax: (202) 544-5763 072 Fort Steilacoom Park Land Transfer Leading up to the 2017 Legislative Session GTHGA routinely followed up with the Governor’s staff and DSHS representatives to ensure all their concerns were addressed so that the request for transfer of ownership would be supported by the Governor’s office and the Department. The extensive pre-session coordination and support from the City’s legislative delegation was successful. Both House and Senate budget proposals direct DSHS to transfer Fort Steilacoom Park to the City and Pierce College by June 30, 2019. Since this language is included in both budgets, there is a high likelihood it will be included in the final budget. Capital Budget Requests: Fort Steilacoom Park, Motor Ave, and WWRP Over the past 5 years, the City has received over $900,000 from the State Capital budget for local & community projects. Capital budget requests often require several years of advocacy before being funding. This year we raised awareness of the City’s long term plans for improvements at Fort Steilacoom Park and the new community gathering area envisioned for Motor Ave. While funding is not likely to be included in this year’s budget for these projects, there is greater potential for funding in the coming years as a result of this year’s efforts. In addition to these individual capital budget projects, the City supported funding of the WA Wildlife and Recreation Program (WWRP). The City applied for a competitive grant through WWRP and was highly ranked in the Water Access category for Improvements at Harry Todd Waterfront Park. In the House budget proposal, the City stands to receive $600,000 for this project. In the Senate budget proposal, the City would receive $476,000. Although budget negotiations are still ongoing, it appears the final budget will adopt the House’s approach to WWRP funding, meaning the City is likely to receive the $600,000. Both the Youth Athletic Facilities (YAF) and Aquatic Lands Enhancement Account (ALEA) grant programs are not likely to be funded at a level below where the City’s projects would receive funding.

The Senate’s budget proposed to eliminate the state contribution to LEOFF 2 pension contributions dedicated to helping pay a portion of police and fire personnel pension costs. The House budget maintains this funding. Elimination of this long-standing commitment to share the funding of these pension costs would shift at least $70 million in additional costs to cities starting in the 2017-19 biennium with immediate impacts on cities’ current fiscal year budgets. The estimated impact to the City of Lakewood would be $332,933. Basic Law Enforcement Academy The House’s budget funds 6 additional BLEA classes with 25% of the cost falling on the employing agencies. Additionally, funding is provided in the 2017 Supplemental budget for the necessary classes prior to the start of the new biennium. The Senate’s budget funds 8 additional BLEA classes with 25% of the cost falling on the employing agencies but does not fund the necessary BLEA classes for 2017. Infrastructure Funding For the first time in several years, both the House and Senate budgets include full funding for the Public Works Board recommended project list. $97.1 million from the Public Works Assistance Account is provided for loans to 25 cities, counties and special purpose districts. However, both budget proposals also include redirection of loan repayment funds from the PWAA to the State General Fund and the Education Legacy Trust Account. House Bill 1677, sponsored by Rep. Strom Peterson (D-Edmonds), is part of the budget negotiation process and makes several changes to the Public Works Assistance Account. In its current form, the bill aims to help smaller jurisdictions (less than 50,000 rate payers) access the bond market. Jurisdictions with greater than 50,000 rate payers have access to an interest rate based on the average daily market interest rate for tax- exempt municipal bonds with a 50% discount for a repayment period of 5 to 20 years and a 75% discount for a repayment period of less than 5 years. The bill also changes the approval process from a Board recommended list approved by the Legislature to a Board approved list, with input from 4 legislators. This change is anticipated to expedite the loan disbursement process from 18 months to roughly 6 months. Prior to the end of the regular session, this bill, under the title of Senate Bill 5033, passed the House 95-2. Other major issues still under consideration 5G/Telecommunications The Governor’s Office staff has continued to meet with city representatives, PUDs, and the industry to discuss potential legislation on the deployment of 5G technology. Briahna Murray has continued to attend these meetings and has emphasized the importance that Lakewood and other cities maintain local control and have the ability to respond to community concerns about the use of the right of way. Affordable Housing Tools House Bill 1797, sponsored by Rep. Joan McBride (D-Kirkland), provides cities with funding tools for affordable housing. The bill allows existing REET revenues to be used for affordable housing development through 2022, allows cities to apply for a one-time remittance of 4.37 percent of the state sales and use tax on an affordable housing development, and allows only King County cities to councilmatically impose the .1 percent local sales and use tax for affordable housing currently only allowed with voter approval. This bill previously contained Gordon Thomas Honeywell Governmental Affairs City of Lakewood Legislative Report 3 074 the authority for cities to impose a third quarter REET for affordable housing; however, that provision was removed in the House committee. This bill, along with House Bill 1570, related to extending the sunset of the document recording fee, are still be negotiated and a version of the bills or mix of the two is likely to pass during the special session.
