IV. Responsibilities of the Parties <br />A. Upon execution of this Agreement, King County will provide the services as described in <br />Section III. above, with 2019 as the first year for billing and collecting of the SWM fee. <br />B. Tukwila: <br />1. Tukwila has adopted legislation establishing an annual SWM service charge rate as <br />set forth in Exhibit One, attached to this Agreement and incorporated herein and <br />made a part of hereof. If the City changes its surface water service charge rate for <br />any given year, it will notify the County of the new rate at least two months prior to <br />the beginning of the calendar year in which the rate change is to become effective, <br />allowing time for the County to make necessary adjustments to the database. <br />2. By October 1 of each year, Tukwila will provide King County, via electronic <br />document such as a spreadsheet, changes in property characteristics affecting SWM <br />service charge accounts (excluding new residential parcels and parcel type changes, <br />such as residential parcels changing to commercial parcels or condominiums), in <br />order for such changes to be reflected in the following year's SWM account billings. <br />3. Tukwila will be responsible for any actions involving a challenge to the validity of the <br />City's SWM service charge, including any defense of the City's SWM service charge <br />raised during any County tax foreclosure proceeding on a Tukwila property. <br />V.

Tukwila will pay a one-time fee estimated to be between $47,413 to $105,624, to <br />convert the King County SWM service charge customer database for Tukwila accounts. <br />C.
