Baxter, Shiels Obletz Johnson; Matt Anderson and Matt <br />Hoffman, Heartland; Emma Nowinski, Weinstein A +U <br />CALL TO ORDER: Committee Chair McLeod called the meeting to order at 5:30 p.m. <br />I.

Public Safetv Plan Facilities Siting Criteria <br />Staff is seeking Council approval of a final siting criteria matrix to be used for the Public Safety <br />Plan buildings program. The Committee previously provided input into draft criteria, and this <br />version incorporates additions received at the public Open House in March. Mr. Baxter went <br />over the additions since the Committee last reviewed the criteria. Chair McLeod inquired about <br />next steps after the criteria is approved, and representatives from Heartland, the City's <br />contractor for brokerage services, indicated that they would start with parcel data and run <br />through the essential components of the siting criteria. From there, individual properties would <br />be scored according to the other components.

They also requested that "proximityto schools" be removed from the <br />Public Works facility criteria as that is not realistic.

Staff believes that formal labor agreements such <br />as those in place at Sound Transit and City of Seattle would require dedicated City staff to <br />oversee, monitor and audit. Those large agencies have that capacity, while the City of Tukwila <br />does not have funding for such a position. With these proposed policies, the burden of tracking <br />
