The City took the bold step of adopting an urban renewal district in the blocks adjacent to the S. 144th and <br />TIB intersection. It then spent $7.5 million and a significant amount of staff time to assemble land into a <br />development parcel that would be big enough for a signature development that would catalyze and <br />demonstrate the intensity and quality of development envisioned for the area. <br />Actions by the Tukwila Police Department have resulted in a decrease in crime. With the seizure of the <br />motels along TIB, the Police Department notes that one year later, crime has dropped 30% on TIB, <br />violent crime has declined 40 %, and there has been a 30% decrease in calls for service4. The periodic <br />implementation of a neighborhood resource center and bicycle patrols has also had an impact on crime, <br />and the installation of video cameras have been an asset for officers. <br />Police Chief Mike Villa, Tukwila Police Department presentation to the Tukwila City Council, September <br />15, 2014 <br />TUKWILA COMPREHENSIVE PLAN UP[ DATED.
