ORDINANCE NO. 2420
AN ORDINANCE of the City of Port Angeles
reclassifying property located on the
southwest corner of Second and Vine
Streets from RMF to OC.
Councilman Hesla moved to adopt the Ordinance as read by title, citing the
following findings: (1) Given the lack of large parcels of commercial land
and the surrounding uses, the rezone to Office Commercial is an appropriate
use of land in the City; (2) The central location of the parcel will pro-
vide access to clients, including senior citizens; (3) The Office Commer-
cial District is similar to surrounding uses and compatible with adjacent
residential development; and adding Councilman Quast's condition for side-
walk requirements. Councilman Quast seconded and the motion carried.
B. Residential Fire Sprinkler Systems
Fire Chief Glenn spoke to Councilmembers and..statff in support of the
proposed ordinance and cited personal experiences. He stated he had heard
both sides of the issue and respected the feelings of both sides, and urged
passage of the ordinance requiring the installation of automatic fire
sprinkler systems in all new residential construction. He then answered
Councilmembers' questions. Following discussion, Mayor Whidden opened the
public hearing.
Rex Gerberding, 539 West llth Street, spoke in favor of the proposed ordi-
nance but urged Councilmembers to be cautious in having the installation of
the system mandatory. His concern was with possible negative reaction to
such installation being required.
Jerry Jackson, 1905 West Seventh Street, was opposed to the new installa-
tion of sprinkler systems, stating he felt it would add to the cost of
building a home.
John Spiess, 114 East Eighth Street, spoke as executive for the Homeowners'
Association and stated the Association was against the ordinance at this
time due to the effect of increased insurance costs. He stated the Asso-
ciation was also concerned with the costs in relation to affordable hous-
ing. Some discussion followed.
CITY COUNCIL MEETING 6 3 1
December 2, 1986
Jim Reed, Blue Mountain Road, stated he was building a home for a client
and said the cost for materials and installation did not concur with the
quoted cost of 75 a square foot. He was in favor of the sprinkler system
but felt the homeowner should receive a deduction on taxes for having the
system installed.
Mike Lemon, 1026 West llth Street, expressed concerns with looking at older
homes rather than newer homes and also with the mandatory requirement. He
felt the installation of the systems should be on a voluntary basis.
Carl Alexander, 1712 West Fifth Street, stated he lived in an older home
and that the proposed ordinance, if enacted, would be of no benefit to him.
He spoke in support of a new fire station on the west side of town.
Dick Lorentzen, 3707 Park Knoll Drive, inquired of Fire Chief Glenn as to
why the change. Fire Chief Glenn stated it was a change in technology.
Discussion followed.
Fire Prevention Specialist Jeff Abram then addressed the Council. He pre-
sented a sample sprinkler head that would be in actual use if installed in
a home, described its functions, and gave specific details of how it would
work in actual use. He then answered many of the questions the public had
asked, as well as further questions from Councilmembers. Discussion fol-
lowed at some length.
Leo Sunny, 127 West Third Street, inquired about insulating
the sprinkler system to prevent freezing. Fire Chief Glenn
was a method of insulating the pipes to prevent freezing.
Mayor Whidden then closed the public hearing and read the
title, entitled
ORDINANCE NO.
AN ORDINANCE of the City of Port Angeles,
Washington, requiring the installation
of automatic fire sprinklers in all new
residential construction and creating
Chapter 14.26 in the Port Angeles
Municipal Code.
such lines of
stated there
Ordinance by
Councilman Stamon moved that "we consider rather than the enacting of the
Ordinance making it mandatory for single family residences, that they be
sprinklered at this point, that we instead enact codes that allow in-
stallation to be voluntary for a period of one to two years to allow us
more time to further investigate and to work out some of the gliches that
had been pointed out to us tonight, particularly in the area of insurance
"I would, however, include in my motion that we do require mandatory
sprinklering for multi family residences." Councilman Schermer seconded
for discussion. Councilman Schermer expressed his concerns with comparable
values of homes. He felt a sprinklered home would not necessarily have a
higher market value. He also expressed concerns with model home standards.
He felt the concept of considering multi family. as.,,a first step was good.
Councilman Schermer also encouraged the Council to proceed with caution.
Councilman McPhee stated he was in favor of Councilman Stamon's motion
until Councilman Stamon included in her motion that the installation of the
sprinkler system be mandatory for multi family residences. He believed the
reasons people lived in apartment buildings were because they were unable
to afford a house and were saving money; and stated he was concerned about
an increase in rent. Councilman McPhee felt the most probable cause for
fires was not being addressed. He expressed favor toward voluntary instal-
lation instead of mandatory, and said he liked the idea of the sprinkler
system but felt it should not be forced upon the public. Councilman Quast
stated the reason he would favor mandatory installation is that the persons
who could least afford it would not do it but they were often the ones who
most needed it because they had the greatest potential for disaster. He
urged Councilmembers to defeat the motion. Discussion followed. Council-
man Schermer stated his concern with the exact wording of Councilman
Stamon's motion. He also stated he still had some concern with the manda-
tory requirement for multi family residences and felt it should be a one
year voluntary program.
6 3 2 CITY COUNCIL MEETING
December 2, 1986
Councilman Stamon restated her motion: "That rather than enact the ordi-
nance before us tonight, that we instead ask the staff to develop for us an
ordinance for our consideration at the next meeting which would allow for
voluntary installation of the residential sprinkler systems for a period of
one year and with the intent that following that it would become a manda-
tory requirement; that we also enact installation or codes for the instal-
lation for the systems so that even though it were a voluntary installa-
tion, they would have to meet certain code requirements "I am also going
to include the motion for the requirement that installation in multi family
dwellings be mandatory at this point." Additional discussion followed.
On call for the question, the motion carried, with Councilmen Stamon,
Hesla, and Schermer voting "Aye Councilman McPhee voting "No and
Councilman Quast abstaining.

Solid Waste, decriminalization, centralized dispatch, Jail costs, septage,
Traffic Violations Bureau, and municipal court. Also that the Mayor
