1 ONE CLUB HOUSE LANE - SECTOR 12 HOA SUMMARY-ANNUAL MEMBER MEETING ENDEAVOUR E.S. OCTOBER 20,2004 President Geigel opened the meeting at 7:35 pm and introduced the invited speakers: Don Doran, Mayor City of Mukilteo Cathy Reese, Council Member City of Mukilteo Dave Waggoner, Airport Director Paine Field Mayor Doran discussed the Tank Farm development-22 acres of waterfront in Old Town Mukilteo. He said it is a case of "40 acres of need in a 20 acre spot". A five member group lead by the Port of Everett ryva. St Ferries, Sound Transit, Cities of Everett and Mukilteo) now control and are planning the future use of the site. A recent consultant study done for the Port of the economics of several development options found only one that would return a small profit-a residential intensive one that would require major increases in building height limits. Most of the Council are opposed to this increase. Cathy Reese said the City will continue searching for a feasible alternative that incorporates Lighthouse Park. She also said that the lead agency, the Port of Everett, has assured Mukilteo that no development would proceed without its meeting Mukilteo's approval. Both she and the Mayor encouraged Mukiliteo residents to stay informed and involved in this issue. Dave Waggoner described the airport's new museum and tour center project. He said the County is also looking at possible commercial air service from Paine Field as one of the ways to jump-start the local economy. He said the County had recently received a consultant's market study report about commercial air use. The next study phase will consider costs - including noise impacts, ground transportation, and,impact on home values. He asked for other items that should be considered and impact on schools and capital costs for needed infrastructure were suggested. Dave summarized the findings of the air service use market study: the Paine Field catchment basin population is 1.1. million people; from this population there are 7,000 airplane boardings each day; Las Vegas, NV is the most popular destination. He said he and County officials are very aware of the concerns of home owners about excess noise and reduction of home values. He also said that if the County supports the use of Paine Field for regional air service, the County would have little or no say about the number of flights per day-that would be up to the airlines and the FAA. Mayor Doran and Council Member Reese both expressed strong opposition to the use of Paine Field for commercial air service and felt it was a violation of the Mediated Role Determination [agreements between the County and the City made in that encourages general aviation and, aircraft development and maintenance, while discouraging commercial air service]. t.

Wbither the Tank Farm? The City of Mukilteo is one of several State and local governn1ent entities that form a consortium under the lead of the Port of Everett that controls the 22-acre former Tank Fann site in old town Mukilteo. The City has been looking at this site as a Multimodal Transportation Terminal (WS ferry, commuter rail, bus, park & ride). A recent study by the Port looked at five development concepts for the site. Four concepts resulted in a negative land value ($6-37 million). One concept requiring major height limitations changes resulted in a positive value of $2.1 million. There are significant up-front costs that would be borne by the consortium for providing infrastructure, such as demolition, roads, water, power, sewers and public park/pedestrian promenade facilities. Boeing's need of a large pier at the site and the question of new road access in Japanese Gulch further complicate the outcome. The Port of Everett will present an update on its' site planning to the Mukilteo City Council on Monday, October 18,2004, at 7:00 p.m. at the Fire Station #3 (across from the Library). Mayor Doran will. discuss this topic at our Homeowners meeting October 20, '04. (see meeting notice) Paine Field Passenger Service? Snohomish County government is looking for ways to expand economic activity. One target of study is Paine Field's role in achieving the County's goal. The County, in July, received consultant studies that analyzed the passenger service potential for Paine Field. The study concludes that" - -there is a market for regionaljet service from Paine Field". "Tb.e most viable service is regional jet service to San Francisco". The Mukilteo Beacon reported (August 11,'04) that "The FAA won't allow the County to reject commercial air service". David Waggoner, Airport Director of Paine Field, will be at our Homeowners meeting October 20, '04 to discuss this topic_ e see meeting notice) Motorized Scooter Regulations: Proposed regulations for motorized foot scooters are being developed by the City of Mukilteo.
