THE FAMILY THAT ONCE OWNED THE
LAND IN WHICH THEY LIVED.
HAYASHI FARM THERE HAD IN THE
1980s AND THEY WERE AS FAR AS
THE RESEARCH COULD TELL
CIVICALLY AIMED AND A GENEROUS
FAMILY.
THEY DONATED TREES.
TRAGICALLY MR. AND MRS. TAYASHI
WERE REMOVED FROM THEIR LAND,
HOME AND BUSINESS IN THE EARLY
1940s RELOCATED TO AN
INTERNMENT CAMP TO OUR
GOVERNMENT'S RESPONSE TO WORLD
WAR II.
MY OWN TPAPL FAMILY WAS MOVING
INTO THE AREA.
LIKELY ENJOYING THE SHADE AND
BEAUTY OF THE TREES THAT THE
TAYASHI'S DONATED.
I FOUND SOMETHING PERSONALLY
AND HISTORICALLY POETIC THAT
THE TAYASHI FARM WHERE OUR
FARMERS MARKET NOW STANDS.
IN ORDER TO BEGIN A PROJECT TO
HONOR THE TAYASHI'S I REACHED
OUT TO MARK MENDEZ WITH THE
CULTURE AND ARTS INITIATIVE AND
WE FORMED A ECONOMY THAT
INCLUDED MOLLY HUMPREY.
ONE OF OUR FIRST ATTEMPTS WAS
TO FIND ANY DESCENDANTS OF THE
TAYASHI'S.

FLOREZ.

HE'S CALLING IN NOW IS WHAT I
UNDERSTAND HE IS DOING.
BUT COUNCIL BILL 119869, I WILL
FILL THE TIME WAS HEARD IN MY
COMMITTEE ON FRIDAY SEPTEMBER
11th THIS PAST FRIDAY.
WE HAD AN OPPORTUNITY TO BE
BRIEFED BY KORENA AS YOU HEARD
COUNCIL MEMBER INFORM US THIS
MORNING.
THIS ALLOWS THE CITY TO
ACTUALLY CREATE A SYSTEM BY
WHICH TO ENFORCE ANY POTENTIAL
VIOLATIONS OF CIVIL EMERGENCY
ORDERS THAT HAVE BEEN OR WILL
BE ISSUED NOW OR IN THE FUTURE.
AS WE KNOW DURING THIS COVID-19
ECONOMIC CRISIS, AND PUBLIC
HEALTH CRISIS WE'VE HAD AN
OPPORTUNITY TO CONSIDER SEVERAL
CIVIL EMERGENCY ORDERS
ATTEMPTING TO REGULATE PRIVATE
INDUSTRIES THIS IS AN
OPPORTUNITY FOR US TO CREATE
CIVIL MECHANISMS TO CREATE
ENFORCEMENT OF THOSE ORDERS.
AND TODAY WE HAVE AN
OPPORTUNITY TO CONSIDER THIS.
IT DID PASS UNANIMOUSLY.
SORRY IT WAS NOT CONSIDERED IN
MY COMMITTEE FOR VOTE SINCE IT
WAS REFERRED TO FULL COUNCIL
BUT WE HAD AN OPPORTUNITY TO

MUNICIPAL CODE.

OTHER COMMENTS ON THE BILL.
COUNCIL MEMBER HERBOLT, SORRY,
GO AHEAD.
>> THANK YOU, THIS IS MORE OF A
QUESTION.
SO GIVEN THAT WE HAVE PASSED A
NUMBER OF EMERGENCY ORDERS
ALREADY, AND WE'RE UPDATING THE
CODE TO SAY, THAT THERE'S A
CIVIL, THERE'S AN ABILITY TO
ISSUE OR PURSUE CIVIL
INFRACTIONS FOR VIOLATIONS OF
EMERGENCY ORDERS.
WILL WE NEED TO GO BACK AND
UPDATE THE PREVIOUSLY ENACTED
EMERGENCY ORDER TO REFLECT THIS
NEW AUTHORITY?
>> I AM CURRENTLY WORKING ON
THAT COUNCIL MEMBER HERBOLT
WITH THE MAYOR'S OFFICE.
WE PROBABLY DON'T NEED TO, I
MEAN IT GOES WITHOUT SAYING AND
I DON'T KNOW IF THIS IS THE
BASIS OF YOUR QUESTION.
BUT THE LAW CANNOT APPLY
RETROACTIVELY TO VIOLATIONS
THAT HAD ALREADY OCCURRED IF
THEY HAD.
SO I THINK GOING FORWARD, ONCE
THESE GO INTO EFFECT, FOLKS
WILL BE ON NOTICE THIS IS A
POTENTIAL IMPACT BUT, YOU KNOW
WE'RE SEEING IF MAYBE IT MAKES
SENSE TO REISSUE THE ORDERS OR
TO SOMEHOW MODIFY THEM TO BE IN
COMPLIANCE.
BUT IT IS, IT MAY NOT BE
NECESSARY BUT THAT MIGHT BE A
QUESTION FOR THE CITY
ATTORNEY'S OFFICE AND CENTRAL
STAFF AS WELL.

THIS LEGISLATION AS YOU'VE

FOR ALL YOUR INFORMATION AND
YOUR PUBLIC COMMENT TODAY
REGARDING THE HAYASHI FAMILY
THAT THEY ONCE OWNED THE
PROPERTY BETWEEN 28th AVENUE
AND 127th AVENUE EAST WHERE THE
BANK OF AMERICA BUILDING
STANDS.
YOU RECEIVED BACKGROUND
INFORMATION AND I'M GOING SHARE
A FEW MORE DETAILS.
THIS LAND WAS THEIR HOME AND
THIS WAS ALSO THEIR FAMILY FARM
WHERE THEY GREW AND SOLD
PRODUCE AND VEGETABLES TO THE
COMMUNITY.
AS YOU HEARD THEY ALSO DONATED
DECORATIVE TREES WHETHER THERE
WAS A NEW SCHOOL OR OTHER CIVIC
ACTIVITY.
UNFORTUNATELY THE HAYASHI
FAMILY LOST THEIR FARM WHEN
THEY WERE INTERNED AFTER WORLD
WAR II.
SO HAYDEN BROUGHT THIS HISTORY
TO THE COMMUNITY TO THE
ATTENTION OF THE COMMUNITY, THE
LAKE CITY COMMUNITY AND
PROVIDED US WITH THE BACKGROUND
INFORMATION ABOUT THE HAYASHI
FAMILY, THEIR LAND, THEIR HOME
AND THEIR FARM AND THEIR
CONTRIBUTIONS TO THE GREATER
NORTH SEATTLE COMMUNITY.
THEREFOR, AND AFTER, COMMUNITY
LEADERS FORMED AN EXPLORATORY
COMMITTEE TO ATTEMPT TO
RECOGNIZE THE HAYASHI FAMILY
USING S DOT HONORARY STREET
NAMED PROGRAM, THANK YOU SDOT.
COMMUNITY MEMBER REACHED OUT TO
AN ORGANIZATION COMMITTED TO
PRESERVING AMERICAN-CHINESE
COMMUNITY IN THE REGION.
THEY WERE ABLE TO FIND AYI THE
YOUNGEST DAUGHTER OF THE
FAMILY.
THEY RECEIVED THE BLESSING FROM
THE FAMILY TO MOVE FORWARD AND
THEY STARTED TO REACH OUT TO
THE COMMUNITY MEMBERS TO BUILD
SUPPORT FOR THE PROJECT AND
WE'RE HAPPY THAT OVER 14 LAKE
CITY ORGANIZATIONS SUPPORTED
THE STREET RENAMING.
ANOTHER COMMUNITY LEADER OUR
FRIEND CHRIS LEVERSON, LET'S
BUILD LAKE CITY TOGETHER, BEGAN
ASKING FOR FINANCIAL SUPPORT
FROM LOCAL BUSINESSES AND THE
COMMITTEE STARTED A GO FUND ME
FOR THE MANUFACTURING COSTS FOR
THE PROJECT.
IN JUST UNDER A 24 HOURS AS I
SHARED THIS MORNING, THEY

GOALS THE GENEROSITY OVER 30
CONTRIBUTIONS.
SO THE COMMUNITY WE HOPED WILL
BE HOLDING UNVEILING CEREMONY
AND THE PUBLIC IS ENCOURAGED TO
JOIN WHILE FOLLOWING THE PUBLIC
HEALTH SAFETY PROTOCOLS OF
COURSE.
I'VE BEEN TOLD THAT THE
GRANDDAUGHTER BONNIE OF THE
HAYASHI FAMILY WILL BE IN

THAT.
WE'RE WORKING WITH THE
COMMUNITY TO FIND A DATE TO
HONOR THE HAYASHI FAMILY.
YOU HEARD ME SAY WE'RE HOPING
IT MIGHT BE THE 25th OF THIS
MONTH BUT I'LL LET YOU KNOW.
JUST AS A SIDE NOTE AS WE'VE
TALKED ABOUT THIS FOR YEARS AND
PARTICULARLY IN THIS COUNCIL

COMMITTEE, THIS IS AN EXAMPLE
OF WHEN YOU RECOGNIZE THE PAST

ADDRESS THE TRUTH AND THE
HISTORY AND YOU OFFER JUST A
SIMPLE HUMANE GESTURE
RECOGNIZING OF A FAMILY, THE
HAYASHI FAMILY AND JUST
CHANGING THE STREET NAME TO

FACILITATE THE DEVELOPMENT.
THE TWO REZONED AREAS ARE
WITHIN A QUARTER MILE ALONG
RAINIER AVENUE SOUTH UNTIL 2.27
ACRES.
ONE AREA IS NEAR THE
INTERSECTION OF SOUTH ROW
STREET AND THE OTHER ON SOUTH
CLOVER DALE.
SPLIT ZONED AND THIS PROPOSED
REZONE WOULD CHANGE A PORTION
OF IT TO LOW RISE 3, AND
ANOTHER PORTION TO NEIGHBORHOOD
COMMERCIAL TWO.
ALLOWING FOR THE OFFICES OF
SERVICES THAT NEED TO
ACCOMMODATE AFFORDABLE HOUSING
TO BE PRESENT ON-SITE.
HOUSING IS SEEKING TO CONSTRUCT
THE AFFORDABLE BUILDING WITH
FAMILY SIZE TWO TO THREE
BEDROOM SERVING 50 TO 60% OF
THE AREA NEEDING INCOME.
THE SOUTH CLOVERDALE STREET
AREA IS CURRENTLY ZONED
NEIGHBORHOOD COMMERCIAL TWO AND
WOULD BE REZONED TO
NEIGHBORHOOD COMMERCIAL 265-
FOOT RATHER THAN 55-FOOT
HIGHLAND.
SEEKING TO CONSTRUCT A MIXED
USE BUILDING.
FAMILY SIZED UNITS AFFORDABLE
ALSO TO 60% OF AREA MEETING
INCOME.
THEIR PROPOSAL INCLUDES GROUND
FLOOR SPACE FOR THE RAINIER
FOOD CENTER OPERATED BY THE
RAINIER FOOD BANK.
THE LAND USE IN NEIGHBORHOODS
COMMITTEE DID HOLD A PUBLIC
HEARING ON THIS PROPOSAL IN
AUGUST.
AND WE DID NOT RECEIVE ANY
OPPOSITION TO THESE REZONES AS
WELL AS OPCD HAS PROVIDED FOR
THE RECORD AND THE RECORD
REFLECTING HOW AND WHY THESE
REZONES NEEDED TO COME THROUGH
OUR COMMITTEE AT THIS TIME AND
THROUGH THIS MANNER.
THANK YOU.
>> THANK YOU COUNCIL MEMBER
STRAUSS FOR THAT REPORT.
ARE THERE ANY ADDITIONAL
COMMENTS ON THE BILL?
COUNCIL MEMBER MORALES PLEASE.
>> THANK YOU, I JUST WANT TO
THANK THE LAND USE COMMITTEE
AND COUNCIL MEMBER STRAUSS FOR
ALLOWING ME TO PARTICIPATE IN
THE COMMITTEE MEETING LAST WEEK
AND JUST SHARE MY THOUGHTS.
THIS IS A LEGISLATIVE REZONE
THAT COORDINATES THAT SERVING
THE STRATEGIC PURPOSE OF THE
CITY IN TERMS OF MEETING OUR
GOALS FOR RACIAL EQUITY IN THE
PLAN.
AND ALSO PROVIDING REALLY
IMPORTANT SERVICES IN THE AREA
OF LOW ECONOMIC OPPORTUNITY AND
HIGH RISK OF THIS PLACEMENT.
SO THESE ARE IMPORTANT PROJECTS
THAT ARE UNDER WAY AND WILL BE
REALLY CRITICAL TO THE
NEIGHBORHOOD.
IN ADDITIONAL TO PROVIDING
HOUSING THEY WILL ALSO PROVIDE
COMMUNITY FOOD CENTER WITH A
COMMERCIAL KITCHEN PROVIDE MORE
DIGNIFIED SHOPPING EXPERIENCE
FOR THE COMMUNITY.
AND THE HOUSING PROJECT COULD
ALSO IS SLATED TO PROVIDE CHILD
CHAIR WHICH WE KNOW IS
DESPERATELY NEEDED IN THE
COMMUNITY.
A CHILD CARE FACILITY.
SO HERE TO SUPPORT THIS.
AND I WANT TO THANK THE LAND
USE COMMITTEE FOR THE WORK THEY
DID ON THIS.
>> THANK YOU COUNCIL MEMBER
MORALES FOR THOSE REMARKS.
COUNCIL MEMBER STRAUSS ANYTHING
ELSE TO ADD.
>> NOTHING FURTHER TO ADD AT
THIS TIME.
THANK YOU COUNCIL PRESIDENT.
>> THANK YOU SO MUCH.
OKAY.
SEEING AND OH LOOKS, I'M SORRY
I DIDN'T REALIZE THERE WAS
OTHER COUNCIL MEMBERS WITH
COMMENTS, I APOLOGIZE.
COUNCIL MEMBER MOSQUE DA.
>> JUST A QUICK NOTE TO SAY HOW
EXCITED I AM TO SUPPORTING
THESE PROJECTS.
FEATURES LIKE SMALL BUSINESSES
INCUBATION AND COMMUNITY SPACE.
WE TALKED ABOUT THERE A LOT
DURING THE LAST COMMUNITY
MEETING.
COUNCIL MEMBER MORALES AND
STRAUSS ALREADY MENTIONED IT.
TO PLACE THESE AMENITIES NEXT
TO TRANSIT.
IT'S A REALLY GREAT OPPORTUNITY
FOR US TO HIGHLIGHT ALL OF THE
WORK THAT I THINK WE ENVISION
WHEN WE TALK ABOUT DEVELOPMENT
DONE RIGHT AND THROUGH THE
COMMUNITY LENS.
AND IT IS POSSIBLE BECAUSE THE
RAINIER BEACH COMMUNITY HAS
SPENT SO MANY YEARS ADVOCATING
TO ADVANCE FOR EXAMPLE AS
COUNCIL MEMBER MORALES SAID THE
FOOD CENTER IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD
WHILE ALSO INVESTING IN
AFFORDABLE HOUSING AND WE'RE
DOING THIS THROUGH THE
EQUITABLE DEVELOPMENT LENS TO
ENSURE GOOD JOBS FOR COMMUNITY
MEMBERS.
I AM HOPEFUL THOUGH THAT IN THE
FUTURE, IT DOESN'T TAKE AS LONG
AS IT DID TO GET THIS PROJECT
UNDER WAY.
AND THAT WE CONTINUE TO DO
EVERYTHING WE CAN AS THIS
COUNCIL CONTINUES TO LIFT UP
THE PRIORITIES LIKE THIS TO
MAKE SURE WE'RE INVESTING IN
WHAT COMMUNITY HAS IDENTIFIED
AS PRIORITIES TO PREVENT
AGAINST DISPLACEMENT AND TO
CREATE ECONOMIC RESILIENCY.
THIS IS A GREAT EXAMPLE OF THAT
AND WE WANT TO UNDER SCORE MY
APPRECIATE TO IT.
TOOK A LONG TIME TO GET HERE
AND NEXT TIME HOPING IT WON'T
TAKE SO LONG.
THANK YOU SO MUCH AND COUNCIL
MEMBER STRAUSS EXCITED THAT YOU
GET IT TO THE FINISH LINE.
APPRECIATE IT.
HAPPY TO SUPPORT.
>> THANK YOU SO MUCH COUNCIL
MEMBER MOSQUEDA.
