INFORMATIONAL MEMORANDUM
TO: City Council
FROM: Rachel Bianchi, Government Affairs and Communications Manager
BY: Brandon Miles, Business Relations Manager
CC: Mayor Ekberg
DATE: March 20, 2017
SUBJECT: Requested State Legislative Update
ISSUE
Should the City take a position on House Bill (HB) 1999, other legislation that pertains to the
Port and SB?
BACKGROUND
Below is a discussion of the three issues that have been requested to be reviewed by the
Community Development and Neighborhoods Committee.
HB 1999
Representative Mia Gregerson approached the City's lobbyist asking for City support for HB
1999, currently being considered in the State House of Representatives. HB 1999 concerns the
makeup and composition of the Port of Seattle's Board of Commissioners. Staff brought the
issue to Committee of the Whole in February, but was asked to bring it to the Community
Development and Neighborhoods committee for further review. Because of agendas and timing
this is the first opportunity for the Committee to review.
Currently, the Port's Commission consists of five commission members elected at large in King
County. HB 1999 restructures the Port Commission to resemble the composition of the King
County Council. The number of Port Commissioners will increase to nine and each
commissioner would represent a specific district. The nine Port Commission districts would have
the same boundaries as the King County Council districts. Under this legislation,
Commissioners must reside in the district he or she represents. Voting is similarly limited by
districts and all at-large positions are eliminated.
HB 1999 was not moved out of the House and is effectively dead.
Studies on Sea-Tac Airport
Air Quality Study
Representative Tina Orwall sponsored HB 1171 that would direct the Washington Department
of Commerce to complete a study regarding "air quality implications of air traffic at the
international airport in this state with the highest number of total annual departures and arrivals."
While the bill itself is dead, it is expected that the budget proviso will move forward. The Port of
Seattle has committed $75,000 to the air quality study. Burien has committed $30,000, which
could be split between the air quality study and impact mitigation study discussed below. The
draft study would need to be presented to the legislature by 2019 and the final by 2021. While
the Senate did not include the proviso in the budget released today, it is expected in the House
budget next week.
INFORMATIONAL MEMO
Page 2
Impact Mitigation Study
The City of SeaTac has been pushing a budget proviso for funding for an Airport Impact Study,
like the one done in 1997. The text of the draft proviso language reads:
"$500, 000 of the general fund is provided solely for distribution to the Department of
Commerce to contract with a consultant to conduct an analysis of the current and ongoing
impacts of the Sea-Tac International Airport. The analysis will include, but not be limited
to the impacts that current airport operations and expansion will have on public health
transportation, parking, public safety property values and economic development in the
cities of Sea Tac, Burien, Des Moines, Tukwila, Federal Way and Normandy Park."
The City of SeaTac has allocated $250,000 to update the study and has asked other
neighboring cities to contribute funding. As of this writing, staff is not aware of other cities
agreeing to such funding, with the exception of Burien's $30,000 that could be split between this
and the air quality study. This proviso was not included in the Senate Transportation budget but
may be in the House Transportation budget.
On a related note, it is possible that an airport capacity study will move this session and may be
included in the Senate budget. The airport capacity study would review long-term capacity
issues as it relates to passenger air travel in Western Washington. This proviso was not
included in the Senate Transportation budget but may be in the House Transportation budget.
S13 5388
At the same Council meeting where HB 1999 was discussed, Council President asked council
for consensus on staff following up on SB 5388, which seeks to provide additional tools for
removal of unauthorized persons from residential foreclosed properties. The bill and Senate Bill
Report are attached to this memo. SB 5388 passed the Senate unanimously and was
scheduled for a public hearing in the House Committee on Judiciary on March 21. It is likely this
bill will pass the Senate as it has enjoyed bi-partisan support.
RECOMMENDATION
HB 1999 is effectively dead, so no need for any action on the request for support. Staff
recommends supporting but not providing funding for the Sea-Tac air quality study and
remaining neutral on the Impact Mitigation Study. Staff further recommends that the City closely
monitor the airport capacity study, and all airport-related planning that affects Western
Washington. Finally, staff recommends that the City support SB 5388.

Staff Summary of Public Testimony:
(In Support) The defini1i000[u port authority is hoVud. In 1960 ayuihv/ay was established in
|ap/ for u five-person commission. Conoouco\m were noudc to the Legislature regarding
governance problems, lack nfprofessional utuU[ and administrative problems. Tile cost o[
moving to uiuc oornnnisoinnu is one-tenth of percent o[the budget. Nine connnuiasiou
districts follows the charter established by the King County Council, Establishing five
districts supports the appearance ofgerrymandering. It iao simple mathematical u/6ustnucot
to support proportional representation, and mirrors legislative representation. Ports need
local representation 10 dcu) with battles over inopuutu at various |cvc|x and uououg
communities. There in u need to move toward o commission that represents 235,000 rather
than 2.1 million people. This bill supports transparency and increases accountability.

�
(Opposed) The majority of commissioners do not support this bill. Districting and
commissioner election conversations have not taken place in maritime labor. There are
concerns about preexisting pressure, balanced representation, equity, and barriers to
employment and job protection. This bill favors SooNu' political uncertainty, and reduces
representation. There io greater diversity within the port than within SooU|c. Commissions
serve not only their district, but the state as vvn|l.
(Other) The Northwest Seaport Alliance effectively generates revenue and supports
Jobs. Changing the governance model would create on imbalance within the alliance.
Prruuox A: (In support) Representative Gregerson, prime sponeor.

Warehouse Union; Eric Johnson, Washington Public Ports Commission; andTom Albro,

SUBJECT: Local Hiring and DBE Participation
Local Hiring and DBE Participation
The Mayor and City Council have expressed a strong interest in pursuing diverse work force on the
Public Safety Plan projects. DBE participation, apprenticeship utilization and local hiring priority are all
objectives the City would like to consider for the projects.
Current Policy
WHAT DOES TUKWILA DO NOW TO ENCOURAGE DBE PARTICIPATION AND APPRENTICESHIPS?
Disadvantaged Business Enterprises (DBEs)
Currently, Tukwila only actively encourages DBEs when federally grant-funded transportation project
have a pre-determined DBE participation goal. VVSDOT provides DBE goals on a case by case goal
depending on the type of project, amount of certain types of work and trades involved, geographic
availability of certain categories of DBE firms. The general guidance for this process can be found atthis
VVSDOT local agency guideline webdte, under Chapter 26DBEs:
These WSDOT DBE Guidelines result in DBE conditions of award for construction contracts and quarterly
tracking of DBE amounts paid to subcontractors.
Apprenticeships
Tukwila City Council approved Resolution No. 1814 on January 21, 2014 requiring guidelines to be
presented and approved by City Council. In March 2014, City Council approved Policy 900-07, (attached)

Local Hiring and DBE Participation

and subsequently, PW Staff began including the new Division 1 General Special Provision for Apprentice
Utilization /attached\on all qualifying construction contracts over $1K8.
Options for expanding City Efforts
Goals for DBE participation and apprenticeship participation have been used in contracting by public
agencies in this region for over 20years. Many contractors, including most contractors with GC/CM
experience are familiar with setting goals and effectively pursing the accomplishment of the goals.
Experience in this area is often used as selection criterion in hiring the GC/CM. Most experienced
GC/[M contractors have Diversity Managers who focus on the diversity elements of their outreach and
work.
In recent years a new tool has been developed to pursue the priority hiring of workers in specific target
areas. The City of Seattle has been put in place a "Community Workforce Agreement" /CVVA\ program
for use in all City projects over $5 million. A copy of this Agreement is attached. Beyond the DBE and
apprenticeship elements, the CVVA includes the targeted hiring of workers from distressed areas with
high unemployment and low incomes (economically distressed areas>.
For the Public Safety Plan Projects, the City has two general approaches for pursuing its
DBE/apprenticeship/workforce objectives:
Option 1: Require the building contractors on the projects to work under a formal community
workforce agreement similar to that in place in Seattle. The framework for such an agreement is
established. Working under that framework will require that Tukwila hire dedicated staff to manage all
of the elements included in the CVVA. In addition, not all contractors, large and small are used to
contracting under this type of agreement. Some may choose not to bid on the projects given the CVVA
requirement.
Option 2: Make D8E/upprenticeshio/vvorkforce experience and performance an important selection
criterion in the selection of contractors for the Public Safety Plan projects. The contractor, City staff and
outreach consultants will work together to effectively pursue the workforce
DBE/apprenticeship/workforce hiring goals in a way specifically tailored to the City of Tukwi|a's
objectives. It is important to note that the geographic area for the program will need to go beyond the
City limits. The number of certified DBE firms and qualified workers in Tukwila will require that the
program goals extend beyond the City limits, much like the B Centro de La Plaza project, which had the
catchment area as the greater King County limits. The selected contractor can hold orientation meetings
for K48E/VVBE subcontractors, reaching out tothe local ones through trade associations. Subsequent
meetings to educate the subcontractors on how tofill out forms, bids and audit appropriate paperwork
for the public works will be necessary aswell.
There are advantages and disadvantages to these two general options. We would like to discuss this
subject with the Council committees before we target one of these approaches.

COMMUNITY WORKFORCE AGREEMENT
City of Seattle
This Community Workforce Agreement (CWA) is entered into April 8, 2015 by and
between the City of Seattle (hereafter referred to as "City"), the Seattle King County
Building and Construction Trades Council, and Northwest National Construction
Alliance 11 acting on their own behalf and on behalf of their respective affiliates and
members whose names are subscribed hereto and who have, through their duly
authorized officers (hereafter referred to collectively as "Unions") executed this
Agreement. The City and Unions are the signatory parties to this Agreement.
All construction contractors and subcontractors of whatever tier engaged in construction
work for projects that are subject to this Agreement, shall sign a letter of assent (see
Attachment A) and are bound by this Agreement as a condition of performing work on
the project. Such Contractors shall be hereafter referred to as "Contractors." When the
Agreement refers to only the prime contractor, the term "Prime Contractor' will be used
alone, which includes primes that serve as a GC/CM, a design-builder, a general or a
prime.
This CWA meets the intent and obligations set forth in Seattle Municipal Code (SMC)
Chapter 20.37, which directs a priority hire program and an agreement executed
between the Director and Labor Unions that represent workers who typically perform on
City public works projects. SMC refers to that as a Project Labor Agreement; for
consistency with other regional agreements of a similar nature, this agreement is
termed and referred to throughout this agreement as a Community Workforce
Agreement (CWA).
This CWA covers every City of Seattle administered public works project estimated to
cost $5 million dollars or more at time of bid when including any contingency budget,
except when a project is exempted by the Director of City Purchasing and Contracting
Services for the Department of Finance and Administrative Services (hereinafter
referred to as "Director") under conditions established by SMC 20.37. Such projects are
hereafter referred to as "Covered Projects."
The parties to this Community Workforce Agreement, and Contractors who assent to
work under this CWA, acknowledge that social equity, workforce diversity, development
of local workers for construction careers as well as the timely completion of projects
without delay, with skilled workers and agreed-upon procedures, is of benefit to the City.
Public Works projects are important to the residents of Seattle and protect critical City
infrastructure. This CWA enhances cooperative efforts towards those principles. This
CWA is intended to establish a spirit of harmony, peace, and stability between labor and
management, to support timely construction of public works projects.
9
25
Timely construction of projects requires substantial numbers of workers from
construction and supporting crafts possessing skills and qualifications vital to its
completion. This CWA supports training and dispatch of local craft workers to construct
Covered Projects.
This CWA seeks to stabilize wages, hours and working conditions for craft workers, to
ensure workers on Covered Projects have the same working conditions, and
encourages close cooperation between the City, Unions and Contractors, for a
satisfactory, continuous and harmonious relationship between all involved on these
projects.
The parties, and Contractors who assent to this CWA, agree to abide by the terms and
conditions in this CWA. This CWA establishes effective and binding methods for
settlement of misunderstandings, disputes or grievances that may arise related to labor
relations on a Covered Project. Such issues will follow the appropriate procedures
described by this CWA in ARTICLE VIII (Disputes and Grievances) and ARTICLE IX
(Jurisdictional Disputes). Unions agree to not engage in any strike, slow-down, or
interruption or other disruption or interference with the work covered by this CWA.
Contractors agree to not engage in any lockout.
This CWA supports SIVIC 20.42, to promote and ensure access for woman and people
of color to meaningful work on City public works projects. This CWA also supports all
Contractor efforts and obligations to utilize women- and minority-owned firms, as
established under the public works project contract between the City and the
Contractor. Nothing in this CWA shall minimize or relieve the Contractor from such
contractual obligations.
This CWA supports development of a skilled construction workforce. This CWA
supports hire of pre-apprentice graduates and apprentices in Washington State
Apprenticeship and Training Council (WSATC) registered training programs, particularly
women, people of color and other individuals facing significant employment barriers.
SIVIC Chapter 20.38 requires Prime Contractors to ensure apprentices perform the rate
of utilization that is directed in the City Public Works contract for each project. Such
required utilization shall never be less than 15% and will not exceed 20% of all craft
project labor hours. The Prime Contractors shall also ensure that they attain the
required placement for pre-apprenticeship program graduates (from qualified
Apprenticeship and Pre-Apprentice programs as defined within this CWA).
The local region has economically distressed areas with high unemployment and low
incomes, as defined in SIVIC 20.37. This CWA instructs dispatch of workers from such
economically distressed ZIP codes (Attachment B) in a manner that will achieve the
requirements established by the City within each project contract, for the share of hours
that will be performed by workers from such distressed areas.
W
This CWA seeks to support dispatch of workers to achieve the aspirational goals for hire
of women and people of color, as established by the City within the contract for each
Covered Project.
ARTICLE I
SCOPE OF AGREEMENT
Section 1. This CWA applies and is limited to the recognized and accepted historical
definition of public works under the direction of and performed by Contractors of every
tier. Public works, also called project work, shall include site preparation and dedicated
off site work. All City of Seattle administered public works projects with a project
construction budget plus contingency of $5 million and over at the time of bid shall be
covered by this CWA, except when exempted by the Director of City Purchasing and
Contracting Services (hereafter referred to as "Director") in accordance with Seattle
Municipal Code Chapter 20.37.
Contractors of every tier who perform project work, must agree to accept and be bound
by all CWA terms and conditions, and sign a Letter of Assent (Attachment A) before
commencing work. The Prime Contractor shall assure all sub-tier contractors who
perform project work will comply with this CWA.
If the CWA is silent on any issue, the local Collective Bargaining Agreement(s) that are
currently in force at the time such issue emerges shall prevail; where there is a conflict,
the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall supersede and override terms and
conditions of any and all other national, area, or local collective bargaining agreements,
except for all work performed under the NTL Articles of Agreement, the National
Stack/Chimney Agreement, the National Cooling Tower Agreement, all instrument
calibration work and loop checking shall be performed under the terms of the UA/IBEW
Joint National Agreement for Instrument and Control Systems Technicians, and the
National Agreement of the International Union of Elevator Constructors, with the
exception of ARTICLE VII (Work Stoppages and Lockouts), ARTICLE Vill (Disputes and
Grievances), and ARTICLE IX (Jurisdictional Disputes), which shall apply to such work
on Covered Projects.
This is a self-contained, stand-alone Agreement in that Contractors are not obligated to
sign any other local, area, or national agreement.
This agreement contains Attachments which may be updated from time to time.
Updates to Attachment A (Letter of Assent) and Attachment C (Pre-Job Package and
Pre-Job Waiver Forms) shall be reviewed and mutually agreed upon by the Joint
Administrative Committee. The City has the sole discretion to update Attachment B
(Priority ZIP code list).
Section 2. Nothing herein shall prohibit, restrict or interfere with any operation, work, or
function that may occur at project sites or associated with Covered Projects.
69
27
Section 3. This CWA is binding on the signatory parties hereto and Contractors who
sign a letter of assent; it does not apply to their parents, affiliates or subsidiaries.
Section 4. The City has the absolute right to award responsive and responsible bidders
for project contracts without reference to the existence of any agreements between
such bidder and any party to this Agreement; provided that such bidder is willing, ready
and able to sign a letter of assent to comply with this Agreement, should the bidder be
designated the successful bidder.
Section 5. Any craft or trade identified in RCW Chapter 39.12 (Prevailing Wages) will be
subject to the CWA.
Section 6. This CWA does not apply to City workers and nothing herein shall prohibit or
restrict City workers from performing project work. Once work or portions of work on the
Covered Projects is completed and accepted by the City, the Agreement will have no
further force or effect on such work, except when the Contractors are directed by the
Prime Contractor or the City to engage in repairs, modifications, check-out, and written
warranty by the manufacturer.
Section 7. The City, at its sole option, may terminate, change, delay and/or suspend any
or all portions of the City's contract on a specific Covered Project.
Section 8. The liability of any Contractor and the liability of the separate unions under
this Agreement shall be several and not joint. The Unions agree this Agreement does
not have the effect of creating any joint employer status between or among the City and
any Contractor.
ARTICLE 11
PROJECT CONDITIONS
Section 1. Workers shall be at their place of work at the designated starting time and
shall remain during working hours until their designated quitting time. As practicable
given City contract requirements for the project, parking will be available to workers
within a three (3) block radius of the project, at a location designated by the Prime
Contractor. If the City determines dedicated parking is not possible, then the Prime
Contractor will provide transportation to and from a designated parking location that the
Prime Contractor provides, and the project worksite; in such situations, workers shall
leave their place of work 15 minutes before end of shift for travel. Transportation to such
a designated parking location shall be available to the workers throughout each
scheduled work day. In lieu of compensated time for travel to designated parking, the
Prime Contractor may elect to pay each worker for their parking costs, at an amount
negotiated between the Seattle Building and Construction Trades Council and the Prime
Contractor.

project, such proposed changes shall be discussed at Joint Administrative Committee
meetings prior to implementation.
ARTICLE III

Monday morning and end on the following Monday morning (the workweek for any
particular project may be modified by mutual consent). The Contractor will have the
following options of making payment at the election of the employee in writing at the
time of hire or with ten (10) business days' notice of a change: 1) negotiable check by a
local bank, paid prior to quitting time at the job site; 2) direct deposit, into worker's bank

turnaround explanations available in a timely way to other interested stakeholders,
redacted as appropriate and subject to limitations of law.
Section 5. If the signatory Unions are unable to fill a request for employees within 2
business days, the Contractor shall request a referral from the City Job and Training

slowdowns or other disruptive activity for any reason by the Union, any applicable local
Union or by any worker, and there shall be no lockout by the Contractor. Failure of any
Union, local Union or worker to cross any picket line established at Covered Project
sites violates this Article.
Section 2. The Union and every applicable local Union shall not sanction, aid or abet,
encourage or continue any work stoppage, strike, picketing or other disruptive activity at
the Contractor's project site and shall undertake all reasonable means to prevent or to
terminate any such activity. No worker shall engage in activities that violate this Article.
Any worker who participates in or encourages any activities that interferes with normal
operations on a Covered Project, shall be subject to disciplinary action, including
discharge, and if justifiably discharged shall not be eligible for rehire on the project for a
period of not less than ninety (90) days.
Section 3. Neither the Union nor any applicable Local Union shall be liable for acts of
workers for whom it has no responsibility. The International Union General President or
Presidents will immediately instruct order and use the best efforts of his office to cause
the Local Union or Unions to cease any violations of this Article. An International Union
complying with this obligation shall not be liable for unauthorized acts of its Local Union.
The principal officer or officers of a Local Union will immediately instruct, order and use
12
34
the best efforts of his office to cause the workers the Local Union represents to cease
any violations of this Article. A Local Union complying with this obligation shall not be
liable for unauthorized acts of employees it represents. The failure of the Contractor to
exercise its right in any instance shall not be deemed a waiver of its right in any other
instance.
ARTICLE Vill
DISPUTES AND GRIEVANCES
Section 1. This CWA promotes close cooperation between management and labor.
Each Union will assign a representative to ensure Covered Projects are completed
economically, efficiently, continuously, and without interruptions, delays, or work
stoppages.
Section 2. The Contractors, Unions, and workers, collectively and individually, realize
the importance to all parties to maintain continuous and uninterrupted performance of
project work and agree to resolve disputes under the grievance arbitration provisions
herein.
Section 3. Any dispute on a Covered Project that is specific to labor relationships (other
than jurisdictional disputes) shall be considered a grievance and subject to resolution
under the following. The Prime Contractor and City shall be given copies of all notices
and invited to participate in any meetings or proceedings. Failure of the grieving party to
adhere to the time limits established renders the grievance null and void. The time limits
established may be extended by written mutual consent of the parties at the step where
the extension is agreed.
Step 1. If a worker, Contractor or Union subject to this CWA feels aggrieved by a
labor issue, the worker may give notice to their Union representative. Within ten
(110) business days after becoming aware of the grievance, the Union
representative (which may be the business agent or the Steward) shall give
verbal or written notice to the Contractor's worksite representative. The notice
shall describe the violation(s) and provision violated.
The Union representative and Contractor's work-site representative shall meet or
discuss the dispute within 3 business days after such notice. Each party may
keep meeting minutes and send a copy to the other. If the discussion does not
resolve the issue, either party may escalate the grievance to Step 2.
Step 2. To escalate the grievance into Step 2, the Union may, within two (2)
business days after the discussion, send a written notice to the Contractor setting
forth the alleged violation(s), providing a description, the date on which the
violation(s) provoking the grievance occurred, and the provisions of the CWA that
are alleged to have been violated. The Union will send a copy to the City.
13
35
The local Business Manager and/or their designee and the Prime Contractor and
sub-tier Contractor (if any), shall meet within seven (7) business days after the
written notice was delivered to the Contractor, to arrive at a satisfactory
agreement. The meeting will be scheduled to also include a designee of the
Director on behalf of the City. The City will take meeting minutes and share with
the Prime Contractor, sub-tier Contractor (if applicable), and the Union as soon
as practicable after the meeting, which is intended to be within two (2) business
days.
Step 3. (a) If the grievance has not been resolved within five business days
under Step 2, either party may request that the grievance be submitted to an
Arbitrator mutually agreed upon by them. The Contractor and the involved Union
shall attempt mutually to select an arbitrator, but if they cannot do so, they shall
request the American Arbitration Association to provide them with a list of
arbitrators from which the Arbitrator shall be selected. The rules of the American
Arbitration Association shall govern the conduct of the arbitration hearing. The
decision of the Arbitrator shall be final and binding on all parties. The fee and
expenses of such Arbitration shall be borne equally by the Contractor and the
involved Local Union(s).
(b) The Arbitrator shall have the authority to decide only issues presented to him
or her, and he or she shall not have authority to change, amend, add to or detract
from this Agreement.
ARTICLE IX
JURISDICTIONAL DISPUTES
Section 1. The assignment of work will be solely the responsibility of the Contractor
performing the work involved; such work assignments will be under the Plan for the
Settlement of Jurisdictional Disputes in the Construction Industry (the "Plan") or any
successor Plan.
Section 2. All jurisdictional disputes on a Covered Project, between or among Building
and Construction Trades Unions and Contractors of any tier, shall be settled and
adjusted according to the present Plan established by the Building and Construction
Trades Department or any other plan or method of procedure that may be adopted by
the Building and Construction Trades Department. Decisions rendered shall be final,
binding and conclusive on the Contractors and Unions parties to this Agreement.
Section 3. All jurisdictional disputes shall be resolved without the occurrence of any
strike, work stoppage, or slow-down of any nature and the Contractor's assignment
shall be adhered to until the dispute is resolved. Individuals violating this section shall
be subject to immediate discharge.
W
14
Section 4. Each Contractor will conduct a pre-job conference with the appropriate
Building and Construction Trades Council 2 weeks prior to commencing work. The
Prime Contractor and the City will be advised in advance of all such conferences and
may participate if they wish.
After attending a pre-job conference once, Contractors may submit a waiver request to
the City, waiving the requirement to attend future pre-job meetings when they are
performing the same scope of work (see Pre job Package and Pre-Job Waiver forms in
Attachment C). The City and Unions will mutually agree upon granting any such
waivers.
Should an emergency make it impracticable for a Contractor to attend a pre-job two
weeks prior to placement, the Contractor may give less than two weeks' notice and
request a pre-job meeting by contacting the City.
ARTICLE X
SUBCONTRACTING
Section 1. Every Contractor of any tier agrees that they will not subcontract any
Covered Project work except to a person, firm or corporation who has signed a letter of
assent. Any Contractor working on the Project shall, as a condition to working on said
Project, perform all work exclusively, under this Agreement.
Section 2. If a Union that traditionally represents construction workers in the geographic
area of the Covered Project chooses not to become signatory to this Agreement, the
Contractor and signatory Unions shall utilize one or both of the following options to
ensure that work may be claimed by the non-signatory Union ("claimed work") so the
work is completed without disrupting the Project:
(a) The signatory Unions will provide the Prime Contractor and all other Contractors
who assent to this Agreement with the appropriate workforce to perform the claimed
work.
(b) The Prime Contractor may utilize any Contractor to perform claimed work except
that if such Contractor is party to an agreement with the non-signatory Union, such
Union must agree in writing to abide by ARTICLE IX (Jurisdictional Disputes) for the
contractor to be awarded work under this Agreement. Such Contractor may utilize its
existing workforce and wage and benefit package. Such Contractors shall be
required to agree in writing to be bound to and abide by this Article, ARTICLE V11
(Work Stoppages and Lockouts), and ARTICLE IX (Jurisdictional Disputes). No
other provision shall apply to such contractors unless required by the Contractor.
Section 3. The Prime Contractor, City and the Unions commit to provide outreach, and
train, mentor and support woman and minority contractors on any Covered Project. The
City, Prime Contractor and Unions also will provide training and assistance about
15
rGYA
working under the CWA to any interested contractor and those contractors who may
wish to bid on such work.
Section 4. Any Contractor conducting a bid process for work to be performed for a
Covered Project, shall notify all bidders of the requirement to comply with the terms and
conditions of this CWA.
Section 5. If a Contractor of any tier subcontracts any work covered by this Agreement,
such subcontractors of all tiers, shall sign letter of assent to this CWA, prior to beginning
work on the Project.
ARTICLE XI
CORE WORKERS
Section 1. The parties agree that non-signatory contractors of any tier often have core
workers, also referred to as core employees, that they use commonly on their work and
who contribute to the efficiency and competitiveness of those non-signatory contractors.
The parties seek to remove barriers for non-signatory Contractors so they can compete
effectively on projects covered by the CWA without unnecessarily displacing their own
workers to do so.
The non-signatory contractor may bring as many as five core workers onto the Covered
Project for each contract accordingly.
Section 2. Core Workers are those that have worked on the Contractor payroll a
minimum of one thousand five hundred (1500) hours within the craft classification over
the last two year period from the date of dispatch to the Covered Project and have also
been on the Contractors active payroll for at least sixty (60) out of the ninety (90)
calendar days prior to the execution of the contract for the affected Contractor. All Core
Workers shall meet the minimum journey level qualifications of the craft they are
performing, and shall hold all required licenses and certifications for the work of their
craft.
Section 3. The Contractor shall provide detailed documentation at the pre-job
conference identifying their Core Workers on the project and their scope of work and
submit certified payroll data to verify that the worker meets the required definition,
redacted as appropriate. The City shall monitor Contractor compliance to this Core
Worker definition.
ARTICLE X111
EMPLOYMENT DIVERSITY
Section 1. The Director will set a requirement for each project that directs the Prime
Contractor to utilize workers from economically distressed ZIP codes ("priority workers")
16
W
for a specified share of total hours worked on the project by apprentices and journey-
level workers. Workers that qualify towards those requirements shall be called "Priority
Workers."
Section 2. Unions shall first dispatch Priority Workers, and shall continue to prioritize the
dispatch of such workers even after the required percentages are stabilized and
suggest the Prime Contractor will achieve the requirements.
The Union shall prioritize dispatch of Priority Workers who are residents of Seattle ZIP
codes first, and then dispatch Priority Workers from ZIP codes in King County, and then
Priority Workers from any other economically distressed ZIP code (Attachment B).
Labor hours performed by workers living outside of Washington will be excluded from
priority worker calculations that the City performs when calculating whether required
percentages of total Priority Worker hours were achieved.
The Prime Contractor may receive a credit of up to 10% of the hours performed by
Priority Workers, if they hire workers from the Priority ZIP codes who perform non-
manual work and continue to employ said workers in these positions for the duration of
the Contractor's work on the Covered Project. Such substitutes must be approved by
the Director.
The Union will dispatch women and people of color in a manner that best supports the
aspirational goals for their utilization as agreed upon within the contract for the Covered
Project.
ARTICLE XIII
APPRENTICESHIP UTILIZATION
Section 1. The parties and assenting Contractors agree to utilize apprentices from
Washington State Apprenticeship Training Council (WSATC) programs for total hours
established within the City contract for the Covered Project for no less than 15% and no
more than 20% of total project hours on each project with the exact requirement set by
the Director. The Prime Contractor shall provide a copy of their apprenticeship utilization
plan upon request by the JAC. The Prime Contractors apprenticeship utilization plan
will be reviewed by the JAC and appropriate efforts shall be taken to increase utilization.
Section 2. The parties and assenting Contractors agree to hire and facilitate utilization
of those WSATC apprentices on Covered Projects and to facilitate the participation of
people of color, women and persons from economically distressed areas. The Director
will establish a goal for labor hours performed by female apprentices and people of
color who are apprentices, for each project and may substitute other efforts to meet the
intent. The apprenticeship utilization plan provided by the Prime Contractor at the JAC
shall describe how the Prime Contractor will achieve the goals for utilization of
apprentices who are people of color and women.
IVA
39
ARTICLE XIV
VETERAN EMPLOYMENT
Section 1. This CWA desires to facilitate the entry into the building and construction
trades of veterans interested in careers in the building and construction industry. The
Contractors and Unions agree to utilize the services of the Center for Military
Recruitment, Assessment and Veterans Employment ("Center"), the Centers "Helmets
to Hardhats" program, and other appropriate veteran programs, to serve as resources
for preliminary orientation, assessment of construction aptitude, referral to WSATC
registered apprenticeship programs or hiring halls, counseling and mentoring, support
network, employment opportunities and other needs as identified by the parties.
Section 2. The Unions, Contractors and City Job and Training Coordinator agree to
coordinate with the Center and other appropriate veteran referral sources, to maintain
an integrated database of veterans interested in working on Covered Projects, and of
apprenticeship and employment opportunities for Covered Projects. To the extent
permitted by law, the Unions will give credit to such veterans for bona fide, provable
past experience.
Section 3. This agreement will include Helmets to Hard Hats qualified applicants and
other qualified veteran applicants from within the economically distressed ZIP codes as
defined by the City, as part of the Priority Worker hours that the contract shall require
the Prime Contractor to achieve for the Covered Project.
ARTICLE XV
PREFERRED ENTRY
Section 1. The parties seek to construct and expand pathways to good jobs and lifetime
careers for Priority Workers, women and people of color, through collaborative
workforce development systems that also likely includes community-based training
providers and WSATC registered apprenticeship programs. This facilitates a workforce
reflective of the diversity and needs of Seattle and the local region, supporting goals of
workforce inclusiveness.
Section 2. This CWA establishes a Preferred Entry program that will identify individuals,
especially women, people of color, and those from economically distressed ZIP codes
as defined by the City, who meet entry standards for WSTAC apprenticeship programs
that allow qualified preferred entry applicants into their programs.
Preferred Entry candidates shall be placed with Contractors working on Covered
Projects, subject to an interview if requested by the Contractor. Selected Preferred
Entry candidates who are not already first year apprentices shall become first period
apprentices.
W.
Ex
To give preferred entry apprentices an opportunity to become established in their
apprenticeship training, Contractors must employ Preferred Entry candidates for 700
hours, in order to count that candidate toward the Preferred Entry requirement. The
Director may reduce the number of required hours to a minimum of 350 hours on
Covered Projects that have insufficient total apprentice hours to support placements of
a 700 hour duration.
Section 3. The Prime Contractor shall ensure one (1) of each five (5) apprentices on the
Covered Project is from a recognized Pre-Apprenticeship program. Such programs
include the Apprenticeship and Non-Traditional Employment Program for Women
(ANEW), YouthBuild, Helmets to Hard Hats or other mutually agreed-upon programs
that serve people living in economically distressed ZIP codes, people of color, women
and/or veterans. The list of such programs may be updated by mutual agreement
between the City and the Seattle Building and Construction Trades Council.
Section 4. The Unions and Prime Contractor agree to ensure hiring of Preferred Entry
apprentices during the early start of work on the Covered Projects. The City, Unions and
Contractors recognize Preferred Entry Apprentices that are still completing their first
1500 hours of employment.
Section 5. If a preferred entry apprentice leaves, Contractors will replace that apprentice
with another from the preferred entry program.
Section 6. The hours worked by eligible Preferred Entry qualified applicants hired from
such distressed economic ZIP codes will count towards accomplishment of the Priority
Worker requirements.
Section 7. Identification and selection of qualified applicants shall include the
Contractor(s), where candidates have been proposed by Contractors and the individual
apprenticeship program's designated representative. The final selection decision will be
the responsibility of the Joint Apprenticeship Training Committee (JATC).
ARTICLE XVI
TERM
Section 1. This agreement shall commence upon execution by all parties and shall
continue in full force for a period of five years. The parties may mutually agree to
amendments or modifications of this agreement.
Section 2. The agreement shall continue in full force and effect for each Covered
Project throughout the duration of each project and until the last of the Covered Projects
concludes. Either party desiring to extend this agreement beyond the intended five year
term, shall make such intention known to the other party by written notice as soon as
practical, which may be as early as six months prior to the otherwise effective expiration
date for this agreement.

Re: Letter of Understanding
Article XI
Dear Mr. Anderson,
This letter is intended to clarify the intent of Article XI, Section 1 of the Community Workforce
Agreement (CWA). The provision shall now be clarified to read:
"The City of Seattle seeks to remove barriers for non-signatory Contractors so they can compete
effectively on projects covered by the CWA without unnecessarily displacing their own workers
to do so, provided that workers performing covered employment shall be compensated as
specified in ARTICLE III (Wage Rates and Fringe Benefits) and observe the working conditions
specified in ARTICLE 11 (Project Conditions) and ARTICLE IV (Hours of Work, Overtime and
Shifts)."
Should you have any questions regarding this clarification, please feel free to contact Anna
Pavlik, Labor Equity Program Manager.

Allan Ekberg, Mayor
TO: Community Development and Neighborhoods Committee
FROM: Jack Pace, DCD Director
BY: Lynn Miranda, Senior Planner
CC: Mayor Ekberg
DATE: March 21, 2017
SUBJECT: Update on the Southcenter Subarea Plan Implementation Efforts
The Southcenter Plan was adopted in 2014 and includes a chapter on the specific City actions
and capital improvement projects that should be implemented to act as catalysts for the types of
land uses and more urban form of development envisioned for Southcenter. This memo
provides an update on the actions taken to date.
BACKGROUND
Attached is Table I Summary of Recommended City Actions from the Southcenter Plan. These
actions are prioritized in terms of level of need and timing. Projects are anticipated to be
undertaken as opportunities arise and City resources are available. It is intended that the City
will invest in capital improvements and work jointly with the private sector to create public
spaces, new streets, and streetscape conditions that are supportive of the vision, will enhance
the pedestrian environment, and create an attractive setting for the City's urban setting. These
actions should be viewed as a flexible planning tool that allows re-prioritization of projects based
available resources and changing circumstances, needs and conditions.
The Public Space and Amenity projects are specifically intended to instigate the types of
land use changes in the northern part of the Southcenter area that are envisioned by the
community — attracting housing, stimulating a new level and quality of development within
the area, creating more pedestrian-friendly areas, and strengthening pedestrian connections
between activity areas.
The actions related to Streets, Circulation and Mass Transit are required to support the
goals of the Southcenter Plan for enhancing access for transit, automobiles, and trucks,
breaking up the mega-blocks in the planned pedestrian-oriented areas, improving circulation
within and access to the urban center, improving transit service and facilities, and enhancing
streetscapes.
The Bicycle and Pedestrian Facility projects are intended to extend the network of existing
trails and paths within the Southcenter area, connect activity areas (including Tukwila
Station, the Green River and Tukwila Pond to neighborhoods and shopping areas), and
provide a viable transportation alternative to the car as the area becomes more pedestrian-
friendly.
DISCUSSION
The following projects have been completed or are currently underway:

INFORMATIONAL MEMO

Public Space and Amenities
• Multifamily Housing Incentives — Multifamily Property Tax Exemption (MFTE). From
2014 to 2016 a MFTE program was enacted as an incentive to encourage residential
development of market rate and affordable housing in a portion of the Southcenter area zoned
Transit Oriented Development (TUC-TOD). If a project met certain criteria, the qualified
residential units would be exempt from ad valorem property taxes for eight years; twelve years if
providing affordable housing. The intent was to "prime the pump" for pioneer multifamily
developments. Washington Place was the only project to utilize the program.
Staff has met with a developer who is interested in constructing Class A market rate apartments
at Andover Park E and Baker Boulevard, adjacent to Washington Place. There are no current
comps and Washington Place will not lease up for at least 18 months so they are finding it
challenging to get financing. They have asked that the MFTE program be extended through
2017 to increase the feasibility of their project.
Street/Circulation Facilities
• Pedestrian/Bicycle Bridge over the Green River — connecting the urban center to the
Tukwila Sounder/Amtrak Station. $10M project ($8.4M in grants). Design began in 2008;
anticipated completion later this year. Bridge piers and foundation in place. The offsite
fabrication and painting of the super structure is underway. This project also includes design
and construction of a new public space at the eastern landing point adjacent to West Valley
Highway and re-design of the Green River trail from the western landing point of the bridge to
Christensen Road.
• Breaking up the mega blocks with new streets. Two redevelopment projects -
Southcenter Plaza and Washington Place - have contributed to a finer block and street grid
system by creating half-streets that are consistent with street cross-section standards in the
TUC zoning regulations.
Bicycle and Pedestrian Improvements
• On-street parking and sidewalk improvements — Baker Boulevard. Baker Blvd is the
envisioned as the pedestrian "spine" connecting the Mail/Transit Center to the pedestrian bridge
and the Tukwila Sounder/Amtrak Station. King County is providing $1 M to fund the design and
construction of a "road diet" for Baker Boulevard between Andover Park West and Christensen
Road. The new cross-section will include on-street parking, 2-lanes of travel, left turn pocket
lanes at intersections, and bicycle lanes in each direction. Also funded are the design and
construction of wider sidewalks and access ramps on the east side of Christensen from the
intersection with the Green River Trail to Baker Blvd. This project is anticipated to be completed
this year.
Redevelopment on the north side of Baker Blvd, including the Odin Brewery, 405 Baker Blvd,
and California Pizza Kitchen/LA Fitness projects, have constructed wider sidewalks and
landscaped tree wells consistent with the TUC zoning requirements for public frontage.

* Sidewalk improvements on West Valley Highway — connecting pedestrian bridge to
Longacres Way/Tukwila Station. Federal grants are funding the design and construction of
sidewalk improvements on the west side of W. Valley Hwy between the pedestrian bridge
landing and the intersection with Longacres Way. Funds are anticipated to be released to the
City in 2018/19. The City will be looking for funding to design and construct missing sidewalk
segments on the east side of W. Valley Hwy.
0 Wayfinding Program for bicyclists and pedestrians. Wayfinding signage will be installed
in the vicinity of the pedestrian bridge and at key points on Christensen and Baker Blvd.
Pedestrian bridge and Regional Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality (CMAQ) grants will fund
sign design, construction, and installation.
0 Bicycle Racks. The City is installing bike racks at Tukwila Pond, and bike racks and bicycle
repair stations at Odin Brewery and Bicentennial Park. Funding is from a CMAQ grant.
