INFORMATIONAL MEMORANDUM
TO: Finance Committee
FROM: Peggy McCarthy, Finance Director
CC: Mayor Ekberg
DATE: April 10, 2018
SUBJECT: Update Fire and Park Impact Fees
Updated Following April 17 Finance Committee Meeting (see underlined text below)
ISSUE
Approve the following impact fee legislation:
1. an ordinance updating the fire impact fees
2.an ordinance updating the park impact fees
3.an ordinance amending the Park, Recreation and Open Space (PROS) Plan
4.a resolution amending the Capital Improvement Plan (CIP)
BACKGROUND
The City of Tukwila enacted Growth Management Act impact fees in 2008 to fund growth -driven needs in
fire and emergency services and recreation, parks, and open space. In 2017, the City engaged BERK
Consulting to update these rates to incorporate current growth projections, to respond to newly adopted fire
and parks capital needs, and to address perceived shortcomings in the 2008 fee structure.
Berk, in coordination with the staff Impact Fee Team, undertook an extensive study of the City's historical,
existing and projected growth in population, housing, and employment; examined capital plans and
facilities, the Park, Recreation and Open Space (PROS) Plan and Fire Master Plan, the level of service
standards and other pertinent information. The data was analyzed, summarized and computed to produce
a maximum allowable impact fee for each property type listed below:
• Residential —
1. single family
2. multifamily
• Commercial/Non-Residential
3. Retail
4. Office
5. Industrial
The preliminary impact fee results were presented to the Finance Committee on November 21, 2017. Staff
was directed to bring the item back to Committee after further analysis, outreach to the business community
and with policy options for consideration. In February 2018, the Council approved an amendment to the
Berk Consulting contract to provide resources should additional work by Berk be required to address policy
issues or other requests. To date, the amendment has not been exercised.
Staff has reviewed the fee model and made modifications as appropriate; the Capital Improvement Program
project pages have been updated for the proposed updates to the fire and park impact fee eligible projects;
the PROS plan has been updated to reflect an additional level of service standard for park and recreation.
The preliminary fees were compared with the fees of neighboring jurisdictions to assess regional
competitiveness and affordability. The proposed fees reflect a 40% reduction from the preliminary fees
bringing them to a level considered competitive in the region. To arrive at this 40% reduction, Finance and
Economic Development staff reviewed the impact fees of several cities and experimented with different
reduction percentages until arriving at a level comparable with other jurisdictions. It should be discussed

INFORMATIONAL MEMO

that impact fees alone would not dictate if a project moves forward or not. There are a variety of factors that
a developer considers when choosing which projects move forward or not. Impact fees are only one part of
the total "cost of building" in a City. Cities have other fees and charges that a developer has to pay, and it
can be difficult to create an "apples to apples" comparison of development fees and charges between cities.
The Council has the ability to further adjust the fees, including varying the percent reduction between uses
as long as the fee for each category does not exceed those calculated through the impact fee study.
Selected developers were invited to review and discuss the proposed fees with City staff. Two meetings
were held, and the feedback included the following:
The fees should ...
• Allow easy and inexpensive change of land use (i.e. from retail to office).
• Be competitive when compared with total development costs of other neighboring jurisdictions.
• Have visible benefits that are easily understood by tenants.
• Be strategic in attracting development that compliments existing businesses. Two suggestions
were to incentivize multifamily development and medical/dental offices in the central business
district to attract foot traffic.
In addition to the draft fire and park impact fee ordinances, the draft amended Recreation and Open Space
Plan and the draft amended Capital Improvement Program resolution, the following documents serve as
attachments to this memorandum
• "Tukwila Fire and Park Impact Fee Rate Study, 2018", prepared by Berk Consulting provides
background information on impact fees in general and specific data, assumptions and methodology
for computing the Tukwila park and fire impact fees.
• "Regional Impact Fee Comparison -Fire", compares proposed fire impact fees with fees charged by
the Puget Sound Regional Fire Authority and the Renton Fire Authority
• "Regional Impact Fee Comparison — Park", compares proposed park impact fees with fees charged
by the City of Renton, Edmonds, Issaquah, Redmond and Bothell.
• "Tukwila Impact Fee Comparison", compares the 2018 proposed fire and park impact fees with fees
from the 2008 study.
• "Selected Fire and Park Impact Fee Data", provides relevant data used in developing the 2018
proposed fees and the 2008 fees.
• "Fire Impact Fee Eligible Project and Capital Improvement Program Pages", lists the proposed fire
projects eligible for impact fees and the corresponding, updated CIP pages.
• "Park Impact Fee Eligible Projects and Capital Improvement Program Pages", lists the proposed
park projects and updated CIP pages.
DISCUSSION
Growth Management Act impact fees are those fees charged by a local government on new development
to recover a portion of the cost of capital facility improvements needed to serve that new development. The
Washington State Legislature outlined the intent of local impact fees in RCW 82.02.050.
Impact fees may be charged to help pay for: public transportation and road facilities; fire protection facilities;
schools; and public parks, open space, and recreation facilities. Local governments are authorized to
charge fees only for system improvements that are reasonably related to the new development, do not
exceed a proportionate share of the costs of necessary system improvements, and are only used for system
improvements that will reasonably benefit the new development (RCW 82.02.050(3)). In addition, cities'
"financing for system improvements to serve new development must provide for a balance between impact
fees and other sources of public funds" — i.e., impact fees cannot be the sole source of funding for system
improvements that address growth impacts.
The proposed fire impact fees are based on the estimated cost of adding capacity to respond to
development driven increases in fire service incidents. The proposed park impact fees are based on the
estimated cost of adding capacity to respond to increased demand for park and recreation facilities, both
growth related and due to changes in population.

INFORMATIONAL MEMO

Following are items for discussion and consideration stemming from questions that arose at the November
17, 2017 Finance Committee meeting and from the staff Impact Fee Committee.
Impact Fee Calculation Questions.
1. Why did the park impact fee for the retail land use category increase by 191% and the industrial land
use category increase by 133% while the other land use categories increased by a lower
percentage?
In the 2018 Impact Fee study, both the existing and the projected retail and industrial development square
footage is less than the 2008 study. With a smaller base in 2018 over which to spread the cost of
maintaining park capacity, the fee increased. Retail development existing square footage was measured
at 3.1 million less than 2008 and projected square footage at 1.38 million less. Industrial development
existing square footage was measured at 2.5 million less than 2008 and projected square footage at 1.8
million less.
2. Why did the fire impact fee for the retail land use category increase by 223% and the office land use
category decrease by 55% while the other land use categories increased by a lower percentage?
In the 2018 Impact Fee study, both the existing and the projected retail development square footage was
less than the 2008 study and both the existing and projected office development square footage was greater
than the 2008 study. For retail, with a smaller base in 2018 over which to spread the cost of maintaining
capacity, the fee increased. For office, with a larger base in 2018 over which to spread the cost of
maintaining capacity, the fee decreased. Additionally, the increase in fire incidents was higher
proportionately for retail than it was for office in the 2018 study. Retail existing square footage was
measured at 3.1 million less than 2008 and projected square footage at 1.38 million less. Office existing
square footage was measured at 5.6 million more than 2008 and projected square footage at 676 thousand
more. Retail fire incidents increased by 40% compared with the 2008 study while office fire incidents
increased by 28%.
3. Which land use classifications have been categorized as retail, office and industrial for impact fee
purposes?
A list of the land use classifications grouped by impact fee categories, "Land Use Classifications Aligned
with Impact Fee Categories" will be provided.
4. In the Capital Improvement Plan, how was the amount of annual impact fee expected to be
collected determined?
The annual expected impact fee collection was calculated based on historical actual collections over the
most recent three years, 2015, 2016 and 2017 of $172 thousand annually on average for fire impact fees
and $182 thousand annually on average for park impact fees. These amounts were then increased by the
total increase from the adopted 2008 fees to the proposed 2018 fees of 43% for fire and 83% for park. The
resulting amounts were rounded up to factor in expected increases in development activity in the next 10
years. The average annual fire impact fee estimate is $300 thousand, and the average annual park impact
fee estimate is $400 thousand.
5. What was the priority for allocating the expected impact fees to the projects?
The expected park impact fees were first allocated to the existing project, Pedestrian Bridge. The expected
fire impact fees were first allocated to the new Fire Station 51 because it is the farthest along in terms of
design, then to the new Fire Station 52 next because its construction is imperative to maintain response
times after Fire Station 51 is relocated.

Impact Fee Policy Questions
6. Should special impact fee rates be established for educational facilities?
In the impact fee study, educational facilities are included in the Office land use category. Since conceivably
most of the students attending K-12 school in Tukwila are also residents of Tukwila and would therefore be
subject to the residential park impact fee, reducing the fee charged to K-12 educational facilities for
additional park capacity due to growth seems reasonable; not reducing the fee might produce a double
counting of park usage by students who are also residents. The proposed park impact fee has been
reduced by 80% on Exhibit B, Park Impact Fee Schedule, accordingly. Since the fire impact fee is based
on the occurrence and cost of fire incidents and several fire incidents occurred at educational facilities within
the analysis period, there is no recommendation to adjust or reduce the fire impact fee for educational
facilities.
7. Should an accessory dwelling unit (ADU) be charged impact fees?
Currently, the City of Tukwila allows only accessory dwelling units that are attached to the primary
residence; an impact fee is not charged on development of these units. Should the City revise its policy
and allow detached accessory dwelling units, the staff Impact Fee Committee recommends these units also
be exempt from impact fees to encourage the development of this modestly sized, affordable housing type
that makes use of existing infrastructure.
8. For fire impact fees, should the commercial/non-residential categories be further defined into more
specific, narrower categories such as the following?
Current Categories
COMMERCIAL/ NON-RESIDENTIAL
Retail
Office
Industrial
Potential Additional Categories
COMMERCIAL/ NON-RESIDENTIAL
Retail
Office
Hotel/Motel/Resort
Restaurant/Lounge/Gambling
Retail other
Leisure
Medical care facility
Office other
Institutional
Church/religious
Education
Special Public Facilities
Industrial/manufacturing
Further defining the categories could add complexity to the administration of the fee. With the use
categories narrower and more defined, changes in land use by the property owners could trigger more
frequent reporting to the City and possibly payment of additional impact fees. To further categorize the
data, the City of Tukwila land parcels and fire incident data would need to be re-evaluated and re -
categorized based on the new categories. For the current study, staff recommends no changes to the five
land use categories used in the 2018 study.
Z:1Council Agenda Items\Finance\ImpactFeeAgendaDocs12018-0417_InfoMemo_ImpactFeesPMc.docx
INFORMATIONAL MEMO
Page 5
9. Should additional adjustments be made to the proposed fire and park impact fees to increase
affordability and regional competitiveness or to encourage development of certain property types?
The proposed residential fire impact fees are comparable with the Puget Sound Fire Authority and are high
compared with the Renton Fire Authority. The commercial/non-residential fire impact fees are comparable
with both Regional Fire Authorities when considering the average fire impact fee charged to commercial
property types by the Renton RFA. The park impact fees are considered comparable with the impact fees
charged by the cities analyzed. Staff has no recommendations for changes.
10. Should an update to the impact fee data and calculations be undertaken periodically?
Both the fire and park impact fee ordinances provide an automatic annual update based on the Construction
Cost Index for Seattle (June -June) published by the Engineering News Record in section 16.28.080.
The maximum fees that can legally be charged are the adjusted fees presented in the Tukwila Fire and
Park Impact Fee Rate Study, 2018, also shown in the impact fee ordinance Exhibits B — Fee Schedule.
The proposed fees represent a 40% reduction to bring them to a level considered competitive in the region.
The City Council can choose to increase the proposed fees to the maximum limit; the proposed fees can
be further reduced using the same reduction rate for all land use categories and for both impact fee types
— fire and park; the fees can be further reduced using a different reduction rate for each land use category
and for each impact fee type -fire and park; or the fees can be considered as presented. The business
community discussions made it clear that the City's fees would be considered in relation to the fees charged
by neighboring jurisdictions when development decisions are made. Strategic fee setting was encouraged
to incentivize desired development.
RECOMMENDATION
The Council is being asked to approve the fire impact fee ordinance, the park impact fee ordinance, the
Parks, Recreation and Open Space Plan amending ordinance, and the 2017-2022 Capital Improvement
Plan amending resolution and consider these items at the April 23, 2018 Committee of the Whole meeting
and subsequent May 7, 2018 Regular Meeting.

Section 5. TMC Section 16.26.020 is hereby reenacted to read as follows:
16.26.020 Findings
The City Council finds and determines that growth and development in the City create
additional demand and need for public fire protection facilities in the City, and the City
Council finds that growth and development should pay its proportionate share of the costs
of the facilities needed to serve the growth and development in the City. Therefore,
pursuant to RCW 36.70A and RCW 82.02.050 through 82.02.100, which authorize the
City to impose and collect impact fees to fund public facilities that serve growth, the City
Council adopts this ordinance to impose fire protection impact fees for fire protection

1 Introduction
1.1 PURPOSE
The City of Tukwila enacted Growth Management Act impact fees in 2008 in order to fund growth -driven
needs in fire and emergency services and recreation, parks, and open space. In 2017, the City engaged
BERK Consulting to update these rates to incorporate current growth projections, to respond to newly
adopted fire and parks capital needs, and to address perceived shortcomings in the 2008 fee structure.
This study outlines the purpose and requirements for impact fees, documents the technical assumptions and
methodology for fee calculation, presents the findings from these calculations, and includes proposed
amendments to planning documents and an updated capital projects list.
1.1.1 Impact Fee Definition
Statutory
Growth Management Act impact fees are those fees charged by a local government on new development
to recover a portion of the cost of capital facility improvements needed to serve that new development.
Specifically, the Washington State Legislature outlined the intent of local impact fees in RCW 82.02.050:
(1) It is the intent of the legislature:
(a) To ensure that adequate facilities are available to serve new growth and development;
(b) To promote orderly growth and development by establishing standards by which counties,
cities, and towns may require, by ordinance, that new growth and development pay a
proportionate share of the cost of new facilities needed to serve new growth and
development; and
(c) To ensure that impact fees are imposed through established procedures and criteria so
that specific developments do not pay arbitrary fees or duplicative fees for the same
impact.
(2) Counties, cities, and towns ... are authorized to impose impact fees on development activity
as part of the financing for public facilities, provided that the financing for system
improvements to serve new development must provide for a balance between impact fees and
other sources of public funds and cannot rely solely on impact fees.
Impact fees may be charged to help pay for: public transportation and road facilities; fire protection
facilities; schools; and public parks, open space, and recreation facilities. Local governments are authorized
to charge fees only for system improvements that are reasonably related to the new development, do not
exceed a proportionate share of the costs of necessary system improvements, and are only used for system
improvements that will reasonably benefit the new development (RCW 82.02.050(3)). In addition, cities'
"financing for system improvements to serve new development must provide for a balance between impact
fees and other sources of public funds" — i.e., impact fees cannot be the sole source of funding for system
improvements that address growth impacts.
•111 Fire and Parks Impact Fees Update Rate Study I Introduction
I 3 25
According to the provisions of RCW 82.02.060, impact fees must be adjusted for other revenue sources
that are paid by development, if such payments are earmarked or proratable to particular system
improvements. Likewise, the City must provide impact fee credit if the developer dedicates land or
improvements identified in the City's adopted Capital Facilities Plan and such construction is required as a
condition of development approval. Collected impact fees may only be spent on public facilities identified
in a capital facilities plan and may only be spent on capital costs; they may not be used to pay for
operating expenses or maintenance activities. (RCW82.02.050(4)).
Potential Deficiencies
Based on RCW 82.02.050(4), the capital facilities plan must identify "[d]eficiencies in public facilities
serving existing development and the means by which existing deficiencies will be eliminated within a
reasonable period of time," and must distinguish such deficiencies from "[a]dditional demands placed on
existing public facilities by new development."
The extent to which deficiencies exist is determined by the level of service (LOS) standard that the City uses
to measure the impact created by development.
Fire
As part of developing the 2016 Public Safety Plan, the City conducted a Facilities Needs Assessment that
considered the state of the City's four fire stations, both in their ability to respond to current needs and
anticipated future growth. That assessment found that all four stations are undersized and three have
significant deficiencies (Investing in Tukwila, 2015-12-14, p 1 1 ).
However, those three stations with deficiencies are being relocated or replaced with facilities that not only
address existing deficiencies but also plan for additional future growth. For example, capacity for
additional apparatus bays were added to the plans for Stations 51 and 54 "to accommodate future
population growth" (City of Tukwila, "Public Safety Plan Fire Station Programming and Budget
Implications", Information Memo, 2017-06-08, p 93 of Council Agenda Synopsis for Tukwila City Council
Meeting of 2017-06-1 2). Only those portions of the plans to relocate and/or replace stations, apparatus,
and equipment were considered in this study.
Parks
In the City of Tukwila's 2014 Parks, Recreation and Open Space Plan, 10 service access gaps were
identified throughout the City (Tukwila PROS Plan: Parks and Recreation Needs Analysis, p 9). These gaps
are based on a Level of Service standard that all residents and visitors should be within 1/4 to 1/2 miles of
a City -owned park (Needs Analysis, p 7). In compliance with RCW 82.02.050, these 10 gaps are not
included in the capital projects used to calculate impact fees in this study. The capital projects used in this
study are described in 2.1.6 Identified Capital Projects on page 11.
Project Eligibility
Impact fee legislation requires that impact fees only be used for system improvements that benefit the new
development and relate to the demand from new development. To the extent these projects extend fire
service and parks capacity, the growth -related portion of capital project costs can be funded by impact
fees. RCW 82.02.050(3) specifies that impact fees:
26 • I
' 1 Fire and Parks Impact Fees Update Rate Study I Introduction
4
(a) Shall only be imposed for system improvements that are reasonably related to the new
development;
(b) Shall not exceed a proportionate share of the costs of system improvements that are
reasonably related to the new development; and
(c) Shall be used for system improvements that will reasonably benefit the new development.
Examples of the types of Tukwila Fire Department and Tukwila Parks and Recreation projects that are
impact -fee eligible include building additional square footage to accommodate future additional bays to
planned fire stations, new fire equipment, development of the Tukwila Pond Trail and Boardwalk, installing
artificial turf to athletic fields to allow increased hours of use. A list of the specific projects that could support
growth is found in Appendix A.
1.1.2 Requirements for Impact Fee Rate Calculation
Impact fee must be assessed in accordance with the requirements of RCW 82.02 subsections 050 through
090. The schedule must be based on a formula or consistent method (RCW 82.02.060(1 )). The fees must
be adjusted for the share of future taxes or other available funding sources. The means by which the
proportionate share reduction is calculated is guided by RCW 82.02.060:
(1) ...In determining proportionate share, the formula or other method of calculating impact fees
shall incorporate, among other things, the following:
(a) The cost of public facilities necessitated by new development;
(b) An adjustment to the cost of the public facilities for past or future payments made or
reasonably anticipated to be made by new development to pay for particular system
improvements in the form of user fees, debt service payments, taxes, or other payments
earmarked for or proratable to the particular system improvement;
(c) The availability of other means of funding public facility improvements;
(d) The cost of existing public facilities improvements; and
(e) The methods by which public facilities improvements were financed.
2 Fee Calculations
2.1 ANTICIPATED GROWTH
Based the available capital project lists, demographic projections, and 10 -year expenditure window for
collected impact fees, this study incorporates growth for the 10 -year period between 2018 and 2027.
Additional consideration was made for the following period within the City's 20 -year planning period of
the Comprehensive Plan, 2028-2031 or later. As the City identifies capital projects in the later part of the
planning period window, the City will update the rate schedule accordingly.
The City of Tukwila provided employment and household growth estimates for 2010-2030 consistent with
the City of Tukwila assumptions for its long-range growth in consultation with PSRC. BERK incorporated
:ill Fire and Parks Impact Fees Update Rate Study I Fee Calculations
I 527
employment, population, household size, and housing unit data from the Office of Financial Management
(OFM), Puget Sound Regional Council (PSRC), U.S. Census Bureau's American Community Survey (ACS), the
King County Countywide Planning Policies, and the City of Tukwila Comprehensive Plan. Using linear
interpolation to adapt the twenty-year City estimates to the 10 -year impact fee timeline, BERK found
annual expected growth in employment and residential figures for population, housing, and household size.
These results are split between commercial employees and residents below.
2.1.1 Residential: Population, Housing, and Household Size
The City of Tukwila provided internal estimates of growth in housing units. BERK calculated City of Tukwila
resident population by applying PSRC household size estimates to the City's housing unit estimates. These
projections assume a linear growth trend, which is different from what the City will actually experience as
projects tend to get built during economic upturns and construction slows during recessions and economic
downturns.
Exhibit 1 shows household size, housing units, and population projections. Both PSRC and the U.S. Census
Bureau's ACS produce average household sizes for the City of Tukwila. The ACS estimates include a greater
level of detail of the estimated population residing in different housing types, but the PSRC figures more
closely align with the OFM population estimates prepared for counties and cities planning under the Growth
Management Act. Generally, the PSRC figures are used in this study except when a greater level of detail
is needed by housing type, in which case ACS estimates are used.
There are some small discrepancies between housing targets. The 201 2 King County Countywide Planning
Policies set growth targets for the City of Tukwila of 4,800 new housing units between 2006 and 2031.
These targets were updated in the King County Buildable Lands Report 2014, where the 2031 housing unit
target was adjusted to 4,773 more units by 2031 based on a base year of 201 2 and accounting for
residential building permits. The City of Tukwila Comprehensive Plan contains a 2031 housing target of
4,800 housing units (p 3-5). This analysis assumes an additional 4,773 units to be added between 201 2
and 2031 given the updated status of the target. Using linear extrapolation between 2017 and 2031
results in a target of 3,108 new units by 2027.

The King County Countywide Planning Policies do not differentiate between housing types in growth targets.
To find the expected breakdown of single family and multifamily, BERK used the historic housing type
estimates from OFM's Postcensal Estimates of Housing Units reports to find the expected change in single
family/multifamily. Exhibit 2 shows projected housing unit growth by type.

2.1.2 Commercial: Employment
The City of Tukwila provided estimates of employment growth for 201 3-2030, which BERK interpolated
using PSRC's most recent 2015 employment estimates to fit the 201 8-2027 impact fee timeline. Employment
projections for 201 8-2027 are shown in Exhibit 3 below.

While not as large of an increase as is estimated for housing, the PSRC estimates suggests a significant
increase in employees of 1 2.5% over a ten-year period.
2.1.3 Funding Other than Impact Fees
BERK used historic budget actuals provided by the City to find the expected share of funding related to
growth — please see 2.1.10 Proportionate Share on page 15.
2.1.4 Level of Service and Methodology
To collect impact fees for parks, the City of Tukwila has identified parks facilities and services necessary
to support growth. By law, these projects must be addressed in a capital facilities plan (RCW
82.02.050(4)). The Growth Management Hearing Board concluded in McVittie 1999 that local
governments need a locally -established minimum standard to provide the basis for objective measurement
.111 Fire and Parks Impact Fees Update Rate Study I Fee Calculations
I 7 29
of need for those projects necessary to support growth (McVittie, 99-3-001�c, FDO, at 25), or a Level of
Service (LOS) standard.
The City of Tukwila created five land use categories for determining Fire and Parks Impact Fees. These five
categories are:
• Residential: Single Family
• Residential: Multi -Family
• Commercial: Retail
Commercial: Office
Commercial: Industrial
Tukwila Fire Department uses a response time approach as a Level of Service standard. A response time
LOS standard is included in both the 2008 Tukwila Fire Department Comprehensive Master Plan and the
2017 City of Tukwila Fire Station Location Study. The existing system investment is what the City has
determined is necessary to maintain their identified LOS standard for the current population.
In order to maintain this standard, the Fire Department needs to add capacity to respond to development
driven increases in fire service incidents. To determine the cost of the additional needed capacity on a per
residential unit and per commercial square foot basis, BERK estimated the 2017 replacement cost of the
Tukwila Fire Department's system divided by the number of incidents per development type. This created
a cost per incident. Combining the average number of incidents per development type with the cost per
incident produced a cost per unit. Each step is described below.
To find the 2017 replacement cost, BERK estimated the cost of the land, facilities, and
equipment/apparatus. The methodology for each is described separately.
Land: To determine the replacement cost of the Tukwila Fire Department's land, BERK used GIS and King
County Assessor data to find the average land value within one-quarter mile of each the four current
Tukwila Fire Department stations. These land values ranged from $8-$15 per square foot; by multiplying
the surrounding aggregate land value per square foot by the fire lot square feet, BERK estimated the land
values for each of the four fire station parcels.
Facilities: The City recently received updated cost estimates for replacing and/or relocating three of the
four fire stations (stations 51, 52, and 54). BERK generated a station -level cost per square foot by dividing
the estimated project cost by the proposed square footage. The existing station sizes were multiplied by
the cost per square foot to find a replacement cost for the stations as they exist today. The cost of the
Tukwila Emergency Operations Center (EOC) was separated from station 51, where it is currently housed,
and brought out as a separate project as part of the planned Tukwila Justice Center, which will include the
EOC.
Equipment and Apparatus: Using a combination of data from the 2008 Tukwila Fire Department
Comprehensive Master Plan, City financial records of fire capital investments from 2008-2017, and the
City's fleet services replacement schedule for fire equipment and apparatus, an estimate of the
replacement costs for the City's fire equipment and apparatus inventory was calculated.
Adding these three figures together, BERK estimates that the 2017 total replacement value of Tukwila
Fire Department System is estimated to be approximately $51.0M; please see Exhibit 4 for a

With the system replacement cost estimate, the number of incidents were needed to create a cost per
incident. Using a 10 -year period of data, BERK analyzed Tukwila Fire Department fire and emergency
responses between 2008 and 2017 (the 2017 data only covered a portion of the year). The 46,475
response incidents from this period were summarized by property type to find the number of response
incidents produced by each of the five impact fee land use categories. The incidents per property type
were analyzed for anomalies and the 2016 incident data, the most recent full data set, was used to project
future incidents. Incidents that could not be directly attributed to one of the five property types were
allocated based on the proportionate share of directly attributable incidents of each property type to the
total.
The Tukwila Fire Department uses the National Fire Incident Reporting System (NFIRS) to categorize all
department responses by address, response type, duration, etc. BERK aligned the NFIRS categories with
the City's five impact fee categories (Single Family, Multifamily, Retail, Office, and Industrial) to create
annual and total incidents per type. The Tukwila Fire Department incidents analysis is summarized in Exhibit
5 below.

Parks
Tukwila Parks and Recreation has two LOS standards, one as outlined in the 2014 PROS Plan based on
access, and one included in the proposed amended version of the 2014 PROS Plan based on the per capita
investment.
• Parks LOS 1: All residents and visitors should be within 1/4 to 1/2 mile of a City -owned park.
• Parks LOS 2: The investment per capita of the City's park systems including land and facilities
commensurate with the current level of investment as growth occurs.
Taken together, these LOS standards direct the City's response to increased demand, both growth related
and due to changes in population.
BERK estimated the replacement value of park investments per capita for the City's park system, including
both land and facilities. This analysis can be used to determine the total new investment that would be
needed to keep the current level of investment per capita accounting for future population and employment
growth.
Land: to determine the replacement cost of Tukwila Parks and Recreation's land, BERK used GIS and King
County Assessor data to find the average land value within one-quarter mile of each of the 22 Tukwila
Parks and Recreation parks. These land value ranged from $5-$21 per square foot; but multiplying the
surrounding aggregate land value per square foot by the parks' square feet, BERK estimated the land
values for each of the 22 parks parcels.
Improvements: to determine the replacement cost of the improvements located on parks parcels, BERK
coordinated with Tukwila Parks and Recreation to generate an inventory of all facility improvements, and
32 I' Ill Fire and Parks Impact Fees Update Rate Study I Fee Calculations
1 10
their respective replacement costs. Facilities inventoried ranged from playgrounds, restrooms, and fields to
trails, lighting, and shelters; improvements that increased the usability and capacity of park land.
Adding these two figures together, BERK estimates that the 2017 total replacement value of Tukwila Parks
and Recreation system is $107.9M; please see Exhibit 6 for a breakdown by investment type.

2.1.5 Capital Plans
The City of Tukwila has developed a capital project list that includes investments to support and facilitate
the increased usage of existing park and recreation assets to meet growing demand as well as strategic
expansions of the system as opportunities arise. This list of projects needed to accommodate future growth
is used to calculate a base LOS Standard for impact fee rate setting, as described below.
2.1.6 Identified Capital Projects
The City of Tukwila adopted the 2017-2022 Financial Planning Model and Capital Improvement Program
(CIP) in December of 201 6. The CIP has the identified capital improvement projects for both Tukwila
Parks and Recreation and the Tukwila Fire Department for the next six years. In addition to a description
of each project, the CIP contains annual cost projections and expected revenues.
As part of the process of updating the fire and parks impact fee rates, the City has proposed to amend
the CIP to reflect updated project cost estimates and recalculated impact fee eligibility based on
updated growth projections.
With these changes, the amended CIP contains the identified capital projects used to update the impact
fee program. Appendix A: List of System Improvements, lists the 13 projects identified by City of Tukwila
staff related to serving new growth and Exhibit 7 provides a summary of those system improvements that
are impact fee eligible.

Sources: City of Tukwila CIP 2017-2022; BERK Consulting, 2017.
Working with City staff, BERK calculated impact fee -eligible costs associated with each project by
estimating the portion of each project that is related to growth, resulting in an estimated impact fee -eligible
need of $42M. This need is based on the projects identified at the time of this memo; as part of the periodic
update of master planning documents, especially the six-year CIP, the City of Tukwila will update the
capital project list and additional value needed. In addition to the periodic review as required by the
Washington State Growth Management Act, the City has included provisions in both impact fees to allow
for automatic inflation adjustments.
Funding Other than Impact Fees
The identified need under the base LOS was also reduced by subtracting other funding sources that have
already been identified to fund these projects. The proposed ordinance includes up to 80% discounts of
the fee for low-income housing as allowed in RCW 82.02. The City identified expected funding for parks
capital facilities in the CIP. The draft impact fee eligible project list included with this memo identifies any
funding other that impact fees by project.
2.1.7 Future Need
Fire: The future need for fire will be determined by the number of incidents produced by new development.
As described in 2.1.4 Level of Service and Methodology on page 7 above, BERK used past incidents
information to estimate typical number of incidents by commercial development type.
Parks: Unlike fire, the City's financial need related to growth for Parks is the lesser of two numbers — the
future needs identified by the LOS standards or the capital projects that the City has identified. Any given
LOS standard may suggest that City will need to invest in capital projects at a level that is not physically
or financially possible. For example, the City's parks access -based LOS standard may suggest a necessary
investment that in an area where there is no land available.
Exhibit 8 below contains the comparison between the expected need using the per capita system investment
LOS service standard and the planned capital projects that the City has identified.

2.1.8 Service Areas
Both the Tukwila Fire Department and the City of Tukwila have one service area that corresponds with the
City's boundaries. The Tukwila Fire Department has service sharing agreements with adjacent fire districts
which result in some responses to incidents outside of City limits and also results in some City incidents
including responses from other fire departments.
2.1.9 Unadjusted Rate Schedules
For both fire and parks impact fees, BERK found the expected fee by development before adjusting for
expected proportionate share.
In keeping with the existing impact fee structure, BERK calculated five fees depending upon the
development type. These five are:
■ Residential: Single Family
■ Residential: Multi -Family [determine how ADUs will be addressed]
• Commercial: Retail
• Commercial: Office
• Commercial: Industrial
For residential development, impact fees are charged per dwelling unit, not per person. To connect
residential units by type to the number of people, this study used information from the U.S. Census Bureau's
ACS 5 -Year Estimates. The single-family dwellings were assumed to have an average of 2.89 people living
in them compared to an average of 2.51 in multi -family dwellings (see Exhibit 2 on page 7 for more
information).
For impact fees collected on commercial developments, fees are charged per 1,000 square feet of
development. The unadjusted rates are as shown in
Exhibit 9 below.

These schedules represent intermediary steps to a final rate schedule; each must be adjusted for the
expected proportion of future funding contributed by growth.
2.1 .1 0 Proportionate Share
As required RCW 82.02.030(1), BERK calculated the proportionate share of future payments reasonably
anticipated to be made by new development users in the form of fees, debt service payments, taxes, and
other payments specific to the identified public facilities.
To project these on-going revenue sources, BERK evaluated financial actuals provided by City staff for
2008-2017 (in the case of 2017, budgeted amounts were used as the year had not been completed at
the time of this study). These revenues were inflation-adjusted to a single year dollar basis using the Puget
Sound -area All Urban Consumer Price Index. In total, 15 revenue sources were projected through the study
period. Revenues were finally converted into per capita estimates for consistency with this study's growth
projection methodology.
The historic portion of general fund used to for fire and parks projects was used and applied to projected
future general fund revenues to find the amount expected to be spent on fire and parks capital projects
from general fund revenues.

2.1 .1 1 Adjusted Rate Schedule
BERK incorporated the proportionate share revenue estimates in the unadjusted rates to create adjusted
rate schedules. The park rate schedule for commercial property types was further adjusted to reflect the
usage differential between employees and residents, referred to as the population coefficient adjustment
(assuming 9 hours x 5 days = 45 hours per week for employees versus 12 hours x 7 days = 84 hours for
residents). These rate schedules represent the final rate study calculation of suggested impact fee rates.

3 Plan Amendments
As part of the process of updating the fire and parks impact fee rates, two City planning documents
were amended to reflect updated information
3.1 FINANCIAL PLANNING MODEL AND CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM
The City amended the 2017-2022 Financial Planning Model and Capital Improvement Program (CIP) to
reflect updated project cost estimates, recalculated impact fee eligibility based on current growth
projections, and adjusted projects.
3.2 TUKWILA PARKS, RECREATION AND OPEN SPACE PLAN
The City amended the 2014 Tukwila Parks, Recreation and Open Space Plan (PROS Plan) to include a
second Level of Service standard of maintaining the system value per capita as growth occurs, to allow
the City to respond to growth in those areas where a park was already within 1/4 to 1/2 mile of
development as well as to respond to growth in newly developing areas.

CHAPTER 2. PARK AND RECREATION NEEDS
• Existing Features: This category
depicts existing site features that would
allow for added site capacity including
access, public parking and restrooms.
• Fills Activity Gap: This category
identifies sites that have new activity
potential and that can improve access
to identified activity gap areas.
• New Activity Potential: Parks with
new activity potential are those that do
not currently accommodate one or more
of the top five close -to -home
recreational activities but have potential
to do so. In some cases, parks may
already feature one of the desired
activities but have the potential to add
more. For example, a site may already
have an internal pathway that could be
expanded to improve opportunities for
walking and biking.
LEVEL OF SERVICE (LOS) STANDARDS.
The LOS standards direct the City's
response to increased demand, both
growth related and due to changes in
population. Tukwila Parks and
Recreation has two LOS standards, one
based on access and one based on the
per capita investment.
Parks LOS 1: All residents and visitors
should be within 1/4 to 1/2 mile of a
City -owned park.
Parks LOS 2: The investment per capita
of the City's park systems including land
and facilities should be commensurate
with the current level of investment as
growth occurs.
The City of Tukwila has developed a
capital project list that includes
investments to support and facilitate the
increased usage of existing park and
recreation assets to meet growing
demand as well as strategic expansions
of the system as opportunities arise.

CHAPTER 4. RECOMMENDATIONS
Physical Planning and
Management
LEVEL OF SERVICE (LOS)
STANDARDS - ACCESS AND
INVESTMENT. The City's LOS
standards are outlined on page 2.6.
Tukwila's approach to park and
recreation services should be based on
providing different park types that serve
specific functions, following the
classifications outlined in this Plan. The
service area distance is based on
providing convenient access and
maximizing benefits to the public by
preventing duplication of services. Use
of this measurement also considers non-
residents, such as workers and visitors.
RANK PARK AND RECREATION
PROJECTS THROUGH THE USE OF
PRIORITIZATION CRITERIA.
The criteria should be used as a starting
point to identify how projects should be
ranked, while factoring changing
conditions and opportunities.
DEVELOP AND IMPLEMENT UPDATED
PARK DESIGN GUIDELINES AND
POLICIES.
Design guidelines for park and
recreation development should be used
as a basis for all future park master
plans and park improvements. These
should reference the guidelines
provided in the Southcenter Subarea
Plan, and outline best practices in
system development, including
parameters for park character and size,
access and compatible amenities and
4-10
108
features. The guidelines should promote
compatibility between uses and
structures adjacent to parks.
REDUCE THE MAINTENANCE NEEDS OF
LOW- FUNCTIONING SMALL PARKS.
Several of the city's smaller parks
should be undergo maintenance
efficiency improvements to better align
with the way these sites are used by the
public. This could include replacing
selected areas of turf with groundcover
or permeable pavers, increasing or
adding to tree groves or replacing park
benches with seat walls.
ADD A DISC GOLF COURSE TO THE
SYSTEM.
Parks with capacity for a disc golf
course offer open areas or fairways
ranging between 20-40 feet wide, and
can accommodate nine tee pads and
baskets, signage and user amenities
such as benches. Southgate Park has
potential for adding a disc golf course.
However, the park currently has no
public access, parking or access to
transit.
IDENTIFY THE PREFERRED LOCATION
FOR AN ADDITIONAL COMMUNITY
GARDEN.
The public has identified Duwamish
Park as having potential for a
community garden. Gardens require at
least six hours of unobstructed sunlight,
access to a reliable water source and
fencing. Duwamish Park is not City -
owned but has good public access,
parking and portable restrooms.

Meeting Minutes
April 17, 2018 - 5:30 p.m. - Hazelnut Conference Room, City Hall
Councilmembers: De'Sean Quinn, Chair; Dennis Robertson, Kate Kruller
Staff: Peggy McCarthy, Vicky Carlsen, Laura Crandall, Jay Wittwer, Brandon Miles, Gail
Labanara, Rachel Bianchi, Bruce Linton, Laurel Humphrey
CALL TO ORDER: Committee Chair Quinn called the meeting to order at 5:30 p.m.
I. PRESENTATIONS
II. BUSINESS AGENDA
A. Ordinance: Limited Tax General Obligation Bonds
Staff is seeking Council approval of an ordinance that would amend Ordinance 2559, which
authorized issuance of up to $20 million of limited tax general obligation (LTGO) bonds for
financing property acquisition for the Public Works shops and to pay for soft costs through mid -
2019. This amendment would allow for bond maturities up to thirty years and set the expiration
date for the Designated Representatives' authority to be December 31, 2018. One financing
option for the Public Safety Plan extends the $20 million LTGO bond payment to thirty years from
the original twenty-year period, which could save the City between $264,000 and $356,000
depending on whether interest only payments are made during the construction period, which
is a common practice. These savings would benefit the City's utility and governmental funds.
Passage of this ordinance would provide the flexibility for either 20 or 30 years. The bond sale is
currently scheduled for May 17, 2018. The Committee indicated support for the flexibility to
choose the term, but agreed that decision is part of the larger recommendation on Public Safety
Plan financing which will not occur until late May or June. Since the May 17, 2018 sale date does
not provide enough time for a holistic decision, the Committee asked staff to work with Bond
Counsel to revise the schedule to show an alternative that accommodates this timeline. Chair
Quinn asked that the memo be updated to call attention that the bond sale is contingent on the
Council decision on Public Safety Plan financing. UNANIMOUS APPROVAL. FORWARD TO APRIL
23, 2018 COMMITTEE OF THE WHOLE.
B. Fire and Parks Impact Fees
*Staff is seeking Council approval of a package of legislation to update Fire and Impact Fees for
the City. The City contracted with Berk Consulting to obtain a comprehensive study of growth,
capital plans and facilities, level of service standards and more to develop a maximum allowable
impact fee for residential and commercial/non-residential properties. These fees were then
compared with the fees of neighboring jurisdictions to assess regional competitiveness and
affordability. Staff recommends reducing the fees proposed by the Berk study by 40% to bring
109
Finance Committee Minutes April 17, 2018
them to a competitive regional level. Pursuant to direction given by the 2017 Finance
Committee, input from the business community was collected and factored into the draft
legislation and fee proposals. The proposed legislation comprises an ordinance updating fire
impact fees, an ordinance updating park impact fees, and ordinance amending the Park,
Recreation and Open Space (PROS) Plan to reflect an additional level of service standard, and a
resolution amending the Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) to update the project pages for the fire
and park impact fee eligible projects. Proposed impact fees are as follows:
Fire Impact Fees
Residential (per dwelling unit)
Single Family $1,671
With fire sprinkler system $1,571
Multi Family $1,925
Commercial/Non-Residential (per 1,000 sf)
Retail $1,872
Office $ 732
Industrial/Manufacturing $ 156
Park Impact Fees
Residential (per dwelling unit)
Single Family
Multi Family
$2,669
$2,325
Commercial/Non-Residential (per 1,000 sf)
Retail $1,221
Office $1,101
K-12 Educational $ 220
Industrial/Manufacturing $ 610
Staff proposes a special rate for park impact fees for K-12 education facilities on the basis that
students are most likely Tukwila residents and therefore would produce a double counting for park
usage. The $220 proposal represents an 80% reduction, and the Committee concurred with this
recommendation. Currently, impact fees are not charged for attached accessory dwelling units
(ADUs). As detached ADUs are currently being considered by the Council, staff recommends they
also be exempt if they are to be allowed in the City. Councilmember Robertson suggested that an
amendment for ADUs be considered in the future that factors in the housing affordability calculation
elsewhere in the ordinance.
Following discussion, the Committee agreed with the proposed fees, but requested that staff amend
the memo to further explain how the 40% reduction was determined. The Committee also requested
that language giving the Fire Chief and Parks and Recreation Director discretionary decision-making
on exemptions relating to low-income housing be removed as follows:

UNANIMOUS APPROVAL AS AMENDED. FORWARD TO APRIL 23, 2018 COMMITTEE OF THE
WHOLE.
C. Business & Occupation Tax
Staff provided the Committee with an overview of Business & Occupation (B&O) tax rates,
implementation, and projected revenues. Tukwila does not currently impose a B&O tax, and 43
of Washington's 281 cities have one in place. Rates and threshold affect the amount of revenue
generated and the number of businesses taxed, and can also be used to shape economic
development by both encouraging and discouraging types of businesses. Although a B&O tax
would increase revenues for City operations, it would also increase workload, personnel costs,
and systems costs. Kent has four FTE for implementation and administration, and Renton and
Shoreline both have one FTE. Councilmembers asked clarifying questions and requested that
further discussions on this item include information about scaling the tax to be higher for larger
commercial businesses as well as how much the personnel cost would be for implementation of
sample rates/thresholds. DISCUSSION ONLY.
D. Sales Tax Revenue Sector Trends
Staff presented the Committee with an overview of sales tax revenue sector trends. Tukwila's
sales tax revenue is under projections and also has the lowest average increase for 2011-2017
compared with Auburn, Burien, Kent, Renton and King County. The presentation included a
regional snapshot, large -sector movement, and small -sector movement. DISCUSSION ONLY.
E. 2017 4th Quarter Sales Tax & Miscellaneous Revenue Report
Staff presented the 2017 4th Quarter Sales Tax and Miscellaneous Revenue Report, including
details on retail sales tax, gambling tax, and admissions tax revenues with sale tax broken out by
industry classifications. Total sales tax collections for 2017 were $98 thousand below 2016 and
$1.2 million below budget. The largest sector decline of ($115,985) occurred in wholesale trade
and the largest sector increase of $105,608 occurred in miscellaneous: unclassifiable
establishments. DISCUSSION ONLY.

INFORMATIONAL MEMORANDUM
TO: Finance Committee
FROM: Peggy McCarthy, Finance Director
CC: Mayor Ekberg
DATE: April 11, 2018
SUBJECT: Ordinance Amending Bond Ordinance 2559, Finance the Public Works
Shops portion of the Public Safety Plan Revised
Updated Following April 17Finance Committee Meeting (see underlined text below)
ISSUE
Approve an ordinance amending bond ordinance 2559, allowing for bond maturities up to thirty years and
setting the expiration date for the Designated Representatives' authority at December 31, 2018.
BACKGROUND
The Public Safety Plan includes the siting and construction of Public Works Shops. On November 6,
2017, the City Council authorized the acquisition of property to site the shops, the justice center, and fire
station 54. On December 4, 2017, the City Council approved bond ordinance 2559 for the issuance of up
to $20 million of limited tax general obligation (LTGO) bonds for financing the acquisition of property for
the Public Works shops and to pay for soft costs through mid -2019. The ordinance specified a final
maturity date for the bonds of no later than December 1, 2038 and granted authority to the Designated
Representatives until one year after the effective date of the ordinance.
DISCUSSION
A financial framework has been developed to model financing options for funding the Public Safety Plan,
including the Public Works shops. One financing option extends the $20 million LTGO bond payment
term to thirty years from the twenty-year period written into bond ordinance 2559. By lengthening the
maturity period, the annual debt service is reduced. Based on the assumptions used by the City's
financial advisor, PFM Financial Advisors LLC, in the attached Overview of Debt Service Scenarios, the
annual debt service savings using a 30 -year term rather than a 20 -year term would be between $264,000
and $356,000 depending on whether interest only payments are made during the construction period.
Half of this annual savings would benefit the City's utility funds and the other half would benefit the City's
governmental funds.
The proposed amendment specifies that the final bond maturity date shall be no later than December 1,
2048 and the authority granted to the Designated Representatives shall expire on December 31, 2018. It
is recommended that the City Council approve the amending ordinance to allow for flexibility in structuring
the bond sale and to reduce the estimated annual debt service payments on the $20 million bonds.
The Council has requested the bond sale take place after the larger decision about the Public
Safety Plan financing has been made. The Committee unanimously approved moving forward
with the amended bond ordinance to provide maximum flexibility in the financing decisions.
RECOMMENDATION
The Council is being asked to approve the ordinance and consider this item at the April 23, 2018
Committee of the Whole meeting and subsequent May 7, 2018 Regular Meeting.

CALL TO ORDER: Committee Chair Quinn called the meeting to order at 5:30 p.m.
I. PRESENTATIONS
II. BUSINESS AGENDA
A. Ordinance: Limited Tax General Obligation Bonds
Staff is seeking Council approval of an ordinance that would amend Ordinance 2559, which
*authorized issuance of up to $20 million of limited tax general obligation (LTGO) bonds for
financing property acquisition for the Public Works shops and to pay for soft costs through mid -
2019. This amendment would allow for bond maturities up to thirty years and set the expiration
date for the Designated Representatives' authority to be December 31, 2018. One financing
option for the Public Safety Plan extends the $20 million LTGO bond payment to thirty years from
the original twenty-year period, which could save the City between $264,000 and $356,000
depending on whether interest only payments are made during the construction period, which
is a common practice. These savings would benefit the City's utility and governmental funds.
Passage of this ordinance would provide the flexibility for either 20 or 30 years. The bond sale is
currently scheduled for May 17, 2018. The Committee indicated support for the flexibility to
choose the term, but agreed that decision is part of the larger recommendation on Public Safety
Plan financing which will not occur until late May or June. Since the May 17, 2018 sale date does
not provide enough time for a holistic decision, the Committee asked staff to work with Bond
Counsel to revise the schedule to show an alternative that accommodates this timeline. Chair
Quinn asked that the memo be updated to call attention that the bond sale is contingent on the
Council decision on Public Safety Plan financing. UNANIMOUS APPROVAL. FORWARD TO APRIL
23, 2018 COMMITTEE OF THE WHOLE.
B. Fire and Parks Impact Fees
Staff is seeking Council approval of a package of legislation to update Fire and Impact Fees for
the City. The City contracted with Berk Consulting to obtain a comprehensive study of growth,
capital plans and facilities, level of service standards and more to develop a maximum allowable
impact fee for residential and commercial/non-residential properties. These fees were then
compared with the fees of neighboring jurisdictions to assess regional competitiveness and
affordability. Staff recommends reducing the fees proposed by the Berk study by 40% to bring

FROM: Scholarship Selection Committee: Mayor Allan Ekberg, Council President
Verna Seal, Mia Navarro, Community Engagement Manager, Cheryl
Thompson, Executive Assistant, Jenni Standard, College and Career
Counselor Foster High School
DATE: April 17, 2018
SUBJECT: Tukwila City of Opportunity Scholarship Recommended Recipients
BACKGROUND
In 2014 the City of Tukwila created the Tukwila City of Opportunity Scholarship program to
provide financial assistance to high school seniors living in Tukwila to assist them in continuing
their education beyond high school. The resolution adopting the Tukwila City of Opportunity
Scholarship allocates $10,000 per calendar year for scholarship awards with each award being
no less than $1,000 and no more than $5,000 each.
Due to the requirement to notify recipients by April 30 each year, this matter has traditionally
been forwarded directly to the full Council at a Committee of the Whole meeting for review.
This year we advertised the scholarship on the City's website, on Channel 21,
TheWashBoard.org, Scholarships.com and informational brochures were provided to Foster
High School, Aviation High School, Tyee Educational Complex and Seattle Christian High
School.
DISCUSSION
A Scholarship Selection Committee comprised of Mayor Allan Ekberg, Council President Verna
Seal, Mia Navarro, Community Engagement Manager, Cheryl Thompson, Executive Assistant,
and Jenni Standard, College and Career Counselor at Foster High School reviewed seven
applications. Each reviewer individually considered the applicant's grade point average,
financial need, educational and professional goals, community involvement (service,
extracurricular activities, and employment experience) and personal essay. The committee then
met to discuss the applications and recommendations. After discussion, the selection committee
is recommending scholarships be awarded to six applicants.
RECOMMENDATION
Based upon review of the applications, consideration of all of the required components,
discussion by the Committee, we are recommending the following scholarship awards be
approved on the consent agenda of the April 23 Special Meeting later this evening:
• $2,500 each to Rodas Negussie and Kristina Te;
• $1,500 each to Jessica Nguyen and Ida Sishu; and
• $1,000 each to Siang Dim and Tasha Hong.
Scholarship recipients will be invited to the June 4 City Council meeting to be recognized by the
Council.

The City of Opportunity, the
Community of Choice Scholarship
Attach a Personal Essay: that shares how you have served your
community and made a positive difference.
The summer after my sophomore year I earned a Summer Search Scholarship. This
organization offers mentorship support that will continue through college. I have met
people and built my social circle through this program; this has allowed me to open up.
This program has played a significant role in my journey by developing relationships
with others and being involved in a volunteer service trip in the Dominican Republic.
The Global Leadership Adventures Summer Trip I chose to attend included a ten day
service excursion to the Dominican Republic to build houses out of plastic bottles. Next,
we used the same plastic bottles we had collected beforehand to build two houses and
one school. The time spent there brought me the insight about who I am as well as how
I want to impact the communities around me. By the end of this experience, that day on
forward, it has inspired me to continue this pattern of change. I learned the impact I was
able to complete in the Dominican Republic and I assure myself that with this drive I
have built from within can go into all big or small series that I plan to contribute to one
day.
1. List your educational and professional goals and objectives for
high school graduation.
I aspire to be a doctor, I plan to go to college exploring my options as a medical student
once I enter a university. Being a doctor and going back to my homeland (Ethiopia)
would be a true pleasure. I plan to help those who didn't have a chance to go to school
by funding the money I make as a doctor to build a school in the rural area where
education has been harder for them to reach due to distance as I've discovered in my
past experiences, especially the orphans because of my similar experiences as an
orphan, it was painful but at least my success would allow me to contribute some

5. Provide a written statement describing your need for financial
assistance. If more space is needed please attach a separate
document.
Based on the FAFSA, I'm currently an independent student. When it comes to my
finances I'm not a dependent student as I am self-supporting. I lost both my parents.
Coming here from thousands of miles away and being apart from anything that was
familiar to me is my daily obstacle. Even though I've been faced with those challenges,
tell myself that nothing will stop me from achieving my goals. Also, there are many
reasons why I'm in need for financial assistance; it is extremely important to me
because I don't make enough on my own. It will help me pay for my education so I can
achieve the career that I've always wanted to do. Without financial aid it I won't be able
to achieve my acquired future education. While higher education costs can seem
prohibitive, the way to achieve my future is by applying to any scholarship that is
available to me.

List your educational and professional goals and objectives for after high school
graduation.
It has always been my aspiration to become a Certified Public Accountant for one of the
Big Four companies, and I am one step closer to achieving this dream after being directly
admitted into the UW Seattle Foster School of Business. Through my studies, I want to gain
valuable knowledge to empower the accounting realm and maximize my contribution to society
by strengthening communities financially. On a larger scale, I hope that with more money in their
pockets and more financial knowledge, they will be able to fund greater investments such as
education. Often times, the cycle of poverty is exacerbated because of the rigged system.
However, I hope that by empowering families financially, they can be uplifted from the cycle of
poverty by enabling children from these families to pursue higher education. The role of
education is significant in the sense that it has the power to enrich the lives of the individual and
the world. It provides empowerment to the individual to be in places and spaces where major
decisions are made. As power being a direct result of education, individuals like myself, will
have the ability to provide for the underserved, and underrepresented communities who deserve
equal opportunities to success. I want to help others pave way to achieve and assume significant
roles for the betterment of society. This concludes why I want to work in areas around money
because its effects emanate in drastic ways.

Provide a written statement describing your need for financial assistance. If more space is
needed please attach a separate document.
As I come from a low-income and first -generation family, it has never been more important for
me to achieve a post -secondary education that will enable me to reach my goals and seek the
changes I hope to see in the world. I have grown to learn that the value of an education is
priceless as it opens many doors to opportunities I would otherwise not have access to. My
mother was deprived of an education, and sold cheap jewelry in the streets of Vietnam, her wares
glistening like hopes for her family. But because of her hard work, her family was able to have a
roof over their head and food on the table. Through my mother's sacrifice for her family, I
became driven by a perpetual goal to turn her hardships into something promising. However,
college is expensive and it is difficult to fund my education as I come from a low-income family.
I am persistent in my search for scholarships and am taking advantage of every opportunity I am
eligible for, including this Tukwila City of Opportunity of Scholarship. The University of
Washington's cost of attendance is about $27,000 a year, and this is a hardship for my family to
pay. I have an older sister who is currently at the University of Washington as an undergraduate
Biology major, and she hopes to attend graduate school for pharmacy; one year is roughly about
$30,000 at the University of Washington Pharmacy School. I also have a younger sister who
intends on pursuing higher education, and this adds further stress to accommodate for the three
of us who have passion for education. I also have a family back in Vietnam who does not have
consistent employment due to lack of opportunities and education, and my mom can't turn a
blind eye to financially helping them. Although my mom is working full-time to enable us to
focus on performing well academically rather than making money, it's not enough to pay for the
cost of attendance for university. Thus, I hope to finance my education completely through
outside scholarships without taking out loans which will eventually accrue interest, nor having to
be dependent on my mom. I understand that education is an investment, so ultimately, I am
hoping that money will not be a deterrent to accomplishing my envisioned goals.

My academic journey has been limited due to not qualifying for financial aids. lam a
running start student and have to pay my own fees and textbooks. A majority of running start
students qualify for free-reduced lunch so their fees gets waived and they're able to rent
textbooks for free. Although my family income is slightly above the low-income standard, my
parents still have struggles paying my school fees along with my older sister's university tuition
and fees. My dad is our family's only income and he carries the weight of having to pay hills,
school tuitions/fees, as well as putting food on the table.
As of right now, my top school choice is Seattle Pacific University and 1 had gotten
accepted for Fall 2018. However, even with the SPU grant and presidential scholarship, the
tuition is still too expensive for my family to pay. I was only offered loans that can help pay a
majority of the tuition. I was extremely excited when I received the acceptance letter but after 1
got the financial aid paper I. felt hopeless. Most scholarships are around $1,000 and 1 would have
to apply for over 20 scholarship and actually win them to be able to attend SPU in the fall
quarter. My second choice is the University of Washington, Seattle. But even so, 1 worry about
niy tuition and fees due to the fact that my FAFSA only offered me loans. Tuitions are usually
around thousands of dollars and there are still fees and supplies to pay.
I desire to pursue my education but with all these financial obstacles, it is difficult for me
to do so. I don't have the benefits like students who qualify for free-reduced lunch even though I
am not much different from them.

List your educational and professional goals and objectives for after high school
graduation.
No one in my family (including my extended family) has attended college before. Not
one person has been a role model for me when it comes to school, due to the paths they've taken.
I don't want to follow their footsteps. I want to make choices that would benefit me in the
long -run, and hopefully, I could be the role -model my family doesn't have. Education is not an
option for me, it is mandatory. I believe going to college is important because it will provide
more opportunities and result in making higher connections. This is why I want to go to college
after high school. I decided to change the course of my life by channeling all the negativity in my
life towards pursuing a higher education. One of the steps I took towards pursuing a college
education involved joining student programs supporting my college readiness, such as Young
Executives of Color (YEOC), AVID, and Summer Search. I was trying my best to go on campus
tours around me, and join programs in some universities such as YEOC, at the University of
Washington, Seattle.
When I was just 15 years old I saved my father's life by performing CPR on him while he
had a heart attack in his sleep. I had never performed CPR before. Doctors said if I didn't do
CPR my father would've died in seconds. He laid still in a comma with a tube running down his
throat to keep him alive. All I did was look at the floor. I didn't cry because I trusted the doctors,
nurses, and everyone who was helping my dad. I value the relationship with my father and did
not want to lose him. When he woke up two days later, that was the first time I saw him cry. I
thank the nurses that took care of him. In the future I plan to become a nurse. After seeing the
doctors help my father successfully, it made me realize helping others and making sure they
receive the help they need is something I am passionate about doing. Seeing others happy and
cared for is what makes me happy, therefore this is why I want to pursue a career in medicine.

Provide a written statement describing your need for financial assistance. If more space
is needed please attach a separate document.
Growing up I've always been blessed enough to have a roof over my head and food on
the table. Although, I have those things, money is still a problem in my family. My mom always
tries her best for my younger sister and I. Everyday my mom wakes up at 3 AM so she can go to
work. We are living under government support such as food stamps and section eight housing.
Though these are the reasons why my family and I are functioning well I do not want support
from the government when I grow older. Since my mom is a single mother it has always been
difficult for her to provide us things that we wanted instead of things that we needed. There are
times when my mom doesn't make $1,000 dollars a month. Books, food, and board is so
expensive and I know that my mom can not afford all of the college necessities I would need in
college if she were to pay. I think to myself why does my mom do this to herself, but I know she
does it because she loves me and my sister. College is something that I strive for and it is
important for me to now take ownership of my opportunities and responsibilities. Whenever I get
the opportunity to sign up for scholarships that are free, I always like to take advantage of it
because this is where I can support myself. Also, I have completed the FAFSA process, so I can
access as many need based grants as I qualify for. One day I would love to pay my mom back for
all of the hard work she has done through my education and thriving for my dream career.

List your educational and professional goals and objectives for after high school graduation.
After facing numerous struggles from a corrupted government in Burma, my grandma
became mentally ill and started hallucinating. When my mom was in elementary school, my
grandma would hide by the wall and yell, "Move! They're going to shoot me!" As Chin, an
ethnicity, our healthcare was restricted. Money was the only thing that mattered to doctors. Due
to the lack of finances, my grandma along with many relatives were denied the care they
needed as if they didn't matter.
Even after my grandma became mentally ill, her heart continued with kindness. She
imagined herself as the wealthiest person in the world helping the less fortunate. Since moving
to America as refugees, we call her on phone to see how she's doing. At times, she believes
that we left her because we hated her even though we still live in Burma. Other times, she asks
us if we are satisfied. Were there more resources that she could have provided for us? She is
the one living in a house made of bamboo and thatch, with holes on the ceiling with little
nutritious food for her to consume. The compassion she demonstrates motivates me to take
risks and push myself to become the best version of myself. She makes me comprehend that I
always have something to sacrifice to benefit others not matter what my own circumstance is.
Keeping this mind, I've always wanted work hard to become a physician to help and
advocate for the less fortunate. I am hoping to become an educated person in order to give
back to others the way my grandma dreamt. My family's hardships influenced me to challenge
myself in high school by taking honors and advanced placement courses in math, science, and
English to prepare me for college. I plan on taking pre-med courses in college because I value
the importance of providing equity for underserved communities with access to healthcare.

significantly changed as the cause of this. The financial information we put in to the 2016
FAFSA was when my dad was still employed. Now that he is not employed anymore, it has
significantly affect our family's income. Our monthly payment for our apartment has been
increasing enormously and with my dad not being employed anymore, it has been tough paying
for all the bills. As my family and I are from Burma, we have additional responsibility to help
support our relatives and friends struggling to survive financially over there. Burma is a
developing countries so we need to help them with the resources they lack, while supporting our
own family here in America. I will also be the very first person in my family to pursue a higher
education. Receiving this financial support is necessary for me to continue my dream of
becoming a college educated person. It will grant me the opportunity achieve my dream of
helping the less fortunate after completing my college career.

positive difference?
I stretch my time and myself personally because I feel strongly about engaging in my
community. I have volunteer as a translator for my Burmese Chin community, participated in my
youth group and teach a Sunday School class at my church.
Participation in these activities has shaped me as a leader. While it has been challenging to
complete my homework assignments to the highest quality, almost everyday there are events
which have helped me learn about balancing priorities.
Two main experienced of how I served my community is by educating young children, and
volunteering in my community to maintain a safe environment. I was chosen to teach children
from ages 6 to 8 years old at my Burmese church. Teaching them about God and planning a
lesson each week has granted me so much joy. I am dedicated to my students and deeply care
about their individual life and success outside the classroom. Their innocence has allowed me
to see light in the world and makes my days brighter each time we meet.
159
However, some older people in my Burmese community believe in racial stereotypes, as they
judge people's' personalities based on skin color. As kids are extremely observant about what
they see and hear, the conversation about racism developed during one of our lessons. A
student curiously asked me "Is God racist?". I discovered it was because they heard racist
comments in our Burmese community. I took the time to clarify how racism is not okay. Some
then asked why their family members believe in racism and that they were told to not be friends
with African Americans. I explained that those who believe in racial stereotypes are not
educated as it was the truth. I informed them while they may not have the power to change our
community elders' beliefs, they do have the power to change their actions. I encouraged them
to be brave and to speak up against it. The next time we met, they would tell me "I told my dad
that being racist is not good!" and others added "me too... I told my grandpa..." and so on. I was
remarkably delighted how my actions created more actions and established an understanding
how simple acts can have a huge impact.
Additionally, during my sophomore year, a program called Teen Community Emergency
Response Team offered a volunteer opportunity, a course about preparation for emergency
incidents. So I stayed three days after school every week to complete the course. We learned
skills we need to help others during emergencies. I learned how to use a fire extinguisher, and
first aid to cure and assist injured people during incident.
After the course, I was actively involved in the Teen CERT club as Vice President. My job was to
volunteer during fire and evacuation drills at school and real emergency events for our
community's safety. To raise awareness about staying prepared, we organized a family night at
our school, informing families, with interpreters to translate, about the importance of staying
prepared in case an emergency occurs.
We also sold emergency kits during a craft sale to aid people in being prepared, and
volunteered to clean gardens to sustain a healthy environment. We are planning to attend "Stop
the Bleed" at Harborview to widen our skills, and are in the progress of creating an international
cookbook that will contain cultural foods from all around the world that can be made using
non-perishable ingredients. The impact of our club inspires me to continue using my ability to
better our world.

List your educational and professional goals and objectives for after high school graduation.
I believe life is meaningless without goals and aspirations. Growing up in a culture that's so
heavy on education, I have learned to set my standards high. I believe education is power and it
will produce more productive members of society. My short term goal right now is to finish up my
last year as a Running Start student to achieve my General AA. After that, I plan to attend the
University of Washington, studying towards a bachelor's degree in MIS, Management
Information Systems. Working in retail has sparked a business interest for me along with a
genuine interest in technology. MIS will hopefully provide the teaching dynamics of both
subjects. After graduating, I want to take some time off, save up, and travel to a place I've never
163
been, whether it's Europe, Asia or Africa. I want to broaden my perspective and mindset by not
only studying in school but by diving into new cultures that open new ways of thinking and
appreciating life.
List your academic honors, awards and membership activities while in high school.
I received an academic recognition for my honor roll status at a school assembly my sophomore
year of high school. I was selected to join the prestigious National Honors Society Club at my
high school my sophomore year until now. I started attending Highline College as a running start
student my junior year and both two years with every single quarter, I maintained a 3.5+ gpa
and was listed on the Vice President's List. And this Spring, I am proud to say my biggest
accomplishment is graduating with my high school diploma along with my General Associate's
Degree.
List your community service activities, hobbies, outside interests, extracurricular activities and/or
employment experience.
Through National Honors Society, I volunteer at least 50+ hours each year in high school. The
community service hours include contributing to environmental activities or community activities
such as tutoring, facilitating and managing events. I started working at Nordstrom my junior year
and I am still currently working there today. I started out as a Service Experience Specialist but
then transferred to Men Shoes as a cashier now. Aside from work, I played Volleyball for the
first two years of my high school career and played Tennis for the first three years. I enjoy being
active and playing sports but as I got older, I had to take on more responsibilities that
challenged me to prioritize things in my life. On my free time, I enjoy spending my time in the
outdoors. I like hiking, camping, and kayaking.
List the scholarships (name and dollar amount) you have received, or have applied for.
I have not received any scholarships yet but the ones that I have applied for are the Washington
State Opportunity Scholarship, South center Rotary Scholarship, BECU Scholarship, and the
National Honors Society Scholarship.

Provide a written statement describing your need for financial assistance. If more space is
needed please attach a separate document.
The middle class family is often neglected when it comes to financial assistance because we
have enough to pay but not enough to pay all of it. My parents have been saving up for my
college fund ever since I came out the womb, leaving me with a total of roughly 12k in my
savings account. That would cover a little over one year and I would need financial assistance
for the rest of my undergraduate years. I do plan on living on campus so that adds to the
164
expense. Though both of my parents are working full time, we have other expenses to pay for.
My incredibly strong mother is a breast cancer survivor but after that she had other health
conditions that caused us to have medical bills piling up. In addition to that, my dad was
unemployed for three months and it wasn't up until September of 2017 that he got a new job.
Though it seems like our financial status meets the minimum requirement, it is a challenge for
my family and I to raise the rest of the money to further my education. We would be blessed and
grateful for any financial assistance we can get.
