Council supported submission of this proposal to King County in September 2007 for 2008.

PRESENTATIONS A Starfire Sports presentation made under Business Agenda Item C. II. BUSINESS AGENDA A. Interlocal Agreement for Minor Home Reoair Program At the May 21, 2007, Regular Council meeting, Council authorized Mayor Mullet to sign an application for a Community Development Block Grant for 2008 Minor Home Repair. If received, this grant would be administered by the City of Tukwila and would serve the communities of Tukwila, SeaTac and Des Moines (also see CAP minutes dated May 15, 2007). Grant monies have been appropriated and staff is now seeking approval to enter into an Interlocal Agreement between the Cities of SeaTac, Des Moines and Tukwila for the planning, funding and implementation of a joint minor home repair program in 2008. In an effort to improve administrative efficiencies and reduce contracts, the granting agency (King County) has required larger financial contracts and use of limited fiscal agent which is why the three cities have submitted the grant together through one fiscal agent (Tukwila). Targeting low and moderate income homeowners, the Minor Home Repair program served 25 unduplicated Tukwila homes in 2007 and a total of 45 unduplicated households within the three cities. A total of 740 hours were spent on repairs including electrical, plumbing, carpentry and roofing. Terms of the interlocal agreement are almost identical to last year, with the exception that the agreement will be self renewing as long as grant funds continue to be received. UNANIMOUS APPROVAL. FORWARD TO JANUARY 28 COW. B. Resolution for Creation of the Sian Code Advisory Committee for Sian Code Update In 2007, a joint meeting of City Council and Planning Commission was held to introduce the Sign Code Update process. Staff is ready to move forward with the formation of the Sign Code Advisory Committee and begin the update /revision process of the Sign Code. It is anticipated that the Advisory Committee will complete its recommendations by September 1, 2008. Staff is seeking full Council approval of a resolution which will create and provide specific functioning of a Sign Code Advisory Committee. Additionally, the resolution calls for public participation in the process of creating a new sign code for the City. UNANIMOUS APPROVAL. FORWARD TO JANUARY 28 COW.
