Speaker 1: Agenda Item 11 Council Bill 119009 An ordinance relating to the permission granted to Fremont, accompanied by ordinance 121706 to use and occupy a portion of Fremont Avenue North under the Fremont Bridge North approach, lying north of the Lake Washington ship canal and south of the former Burlington Northern Main Line. Right of way. The committee recommends the bill pass.
Speaker 4: Brian Councilmember Biggs, I just come in there. We're having fun today. Yes. This is some of the exciting parts of the transportation work this relates to if you're familiar with where Adobe in. Google are adjacent to the Fremont Bridge on the north side of the bridge and where the Burkman Trail Press is under the Fremont Bridge. It's a parcel underneath the bridge approach there. As I mentioned earlier, this this same work came before the council a few years back. For some variety of reasons. The council approved it at the time, but the legislation was never or what we authorized never actually was filed in the appropriate way before it expired. I believe it had to do with an attorney that was working for Fremont Company that retired, and it got buried in a piece of paper, in a stack of paper that no one else picked up. What specifically is happening is the city owns the right of way under the approach there. If you go on the Berkman, you'll see that there's actually parking down there, which is operated by Fremont Bridge Company through my company. Fremont DOT Company owns properties adjacent to that and the city requires easement to get to its property. So there was a trade that was made where Fremont, our company, would allow the city to have access to our property through their property in exchange for Fremont, our company being allowed to operate the parking underneath that. As I mentioned, this was agreed to a number of years ago, but it was never finalized. And so this will take this up once again and hopefully will get finalized appropriately.
Speaker 0: Very good. Any questions, please? Got the roll on the passage of the bill.
