AGREEMENT BETWEEN KING COUNTY <br />AND <br />THE CITY OF TUKWILA <br />FOR THE SOUTH 180TH STREET BRIDGE <br />FLOOD WALL EXTENSION <br />This Agreement is made and entered into by King County, Washington ("King County"), by and <br />through its Water and Land Resources Division of the King County Department of Natural <br />Resources and Parks (hereinafter referred to as "WLRD"), and the City of Tukwila (hereinafter <br />referred to as "City"), and collectively referred to as the "Parties." <br />I. Purpose <br />The purpose of this Agreement is for the City to undertake activities in connection with the South <br />180th Street Bridge Flood Wall Extension Project ("Project"), identified in the King County Flood <br />Control District's ("District") annual budget and work program for fiscal year 2018. The Project <br />has been determined by the District to merit funding as consistent with the District's mission and <br />purpose. King County in large measure through WLRD functions as the service provider to the <br />District under the terms of an interlocal agreement ("ILA") between King County and the District <br />and under the ILA implements the District's annual work program and budget. King County by <br />and through the WLRD is entering into this Agreement in its capacity as service provider to the <br />District. This Agreement provides the terms under which the City will provide project <br />management, design and engineering, environmental review and planning, public outreach and <br />construction for the Project, as described in Exhibit One, attached to this Agreement and <br />incorporated herein and made a part hereof, and the WLRD will reimburse the City up to <br />$65,378.00 for Project costs. <br />II. Background <br />The S. 180th St. Bridge Floodwall was constructed incorrectly and angles down under the S. 180th <br />St. Bridge. This leaves a gap in flood protection and may lead to flooding of the Tukwila Urban <br />Center. Project will extend an existing flood wall vertically and tie it into the roadway bridge <br />abutment at the S. 180th St. Bridge Floodwall to provide 100-year flood protection. The project will <br />correct this deficiency. <br />2 <br />
