PRESENTATIONS <br />II. BUSINESSAGENDA <br />A. Presentation on Carbon Reduction Action Agenda <br />Ms. Willmott of Climate Solutions presented the Committee with a summary of the New Energy <br />Cities' Energy Map and Carbon Wedge analysis as well as potential near -term carbon reduction <br />strategies for the City to explore. These strategies were identified in collaboration with City <br />staff in fall of 2015, and are organized by themes of energy efficiency, transportation, and <br />renewable energy. The Committee asked that the presentation materials be delivered to the <br />full Council. INFORMATION ONLY. <br />B. Ordinance: Updating Wireless Communication Facilities Regulations <br />Staff is seeking Council approval of an ordinance that would amend Tukwila Municipal Code <br />18.58, Wireless Communication Facilities, to conform to new Federal Communication <br />Commission (FCC) rules. The Middle Class Tax Relief and Job Creation Act of 2012 (Spectrum <br />Act) requires cities to approve qualified applications within 60 days, allow limited expansion <br />and clarifies other rules. The primary effect to Tukwila's code will be to ensure the City issues <br />permit decisions with 60 days rather than the current 120 day period. The draft ordinance <br />includes other housekeeping edits and will have no financial impact. It was made available to <br />wireless industry representatives for feedback and will next go to the Planning Commission, <br />then return to Community Affairs and Parks. Councilmember Hougardy requested a map and <br />list of wireless facilities in the City. UNANIMOUS APPROVAL. FORWARD TO PLANNING <br />COMMISSION. <br />23 <br />
