Council to consider eminent domain for Strada Da Valle parcel and approve $22.8M Sound Transit agreement

The Renton City Council will hold a public hearing on acquiring King County Parcel 3023059103 on Strada Da Valle, including through eminent domain. The consent agenda includes a $22.8 million Sound Transit reimbursement agreement for the NE 44th Street Station Park and Ride, a $1 million CHIP grant for Willowcrest Phase II, and several other contracts and purchases. The council will also take final action on an ordinance establishing camping and trespass rules on city property.

✓ Decided: Renton council sends camping ban Ordinance 6199 to committee of the whole

After a public hearing and about 30 audience comments, the council did not adopt Ordinance 6199, which would add a new chapter on public property use, camping and trespass. A motion to adopt it failed for lack of a second, and the council instead referred it to the Committee of the Whole for further review and amendments. The council also closed a public hearing on acquiring King County Parcel 3023059103 (Strada Da Valle) by eminent domain, with staff recommending an authorizing ordinance at the next meeting, and approved a consent agenda and several finance items.
