Next Evaluation June 30, 2021
Essential Services & City Operations
The city is targeting July 6, 2021, to phase back in full in-person operations at City facilities. Like other
jurisdictions in the area, it is anticipated that this will be a phased approach with some additional remote
work opportunities when feasible.
Financial Sustainability
On Monday, May 17, 2021, the Council provided initial direction on how to spend much of the FYI 2021
Streamlined Sales Tax funds. It is anticipated that the Finance and Governance Committee will begin to
take up how to spend the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) funds at the June 7, 2021 meeting and that
conversation will move to the full Council for consensus.
* Human Services
Summary: This week HS staff assisted with a total of $8,700.00. Currently nine households are in various stages
of the intake process. The lowest request for back owing rent this week was $800 and the highest was
$12,000. Residents and landlords who applied for the EPRAP program can check their status by going to:
https://kingcounty.gov/depts/community-human-services/COVID/eviction-prevention-rent-assistance LIHEAP

*Business Recovery
Business Re -Openings and Closings
On May 13, 2021, Governor Jay Inslee announced that all counties in Washington will move to
Phase 3 of the Healthy Washington: Roadmap to Recovery reopening plan on May 18 and the
state is moving toward a full reopening statewide on June 30. King County was already in Phase 3
so that did not change our phase. As of June 2, the State continues in Phase 3. If statewide ICU
capacity reaches 90%, activities will be rolled back again.
In Phase 3 most indoor activities are allowed up to 50% occupancy to a maximum of 400 people.
Examples of these activities are dining, retail, professional services, personal services, worship
services, card rooms, museums, gyms and fitness, and movie theaters. Other types of indoor
entertainment are also allowed with restrictions, such as: karaoke and recreational singing, darts,
billiards, arcade games, trampoline facilities, indoor playgrounds, and training classes.
Some in-person spectators at events are also allowed in Phase 3. This includes professional and
high school sports, motorsports, rodeos, graduations, and other spectator events. Generally,
indoor and outdoor venues are capped at the lower of 25% of normal capacity; however,
vaccinated -only sections may be seated at full capacity.
On May 13, the CDC issued new guidance on masks and the Governor announced that the State
would adopt the CDC's guidance. The guidance allows fully vaccinated people to not wear
masks except where still required such as in hospitals and public transportation. Businesses still may
require employees and customers to wear masks.
Business Assistance
The State approved $2.4 billion of federal funding for COVID assistance which includes $240 million
for small business assistance grants. The grants are being administered by the State's Department
of Commerce. Their application portal opened on March 29 with applications due by April 9. On
March 29 and April 2, we notified our businesses about the grant opportunity. The State
Department of Commerce implemented a very efficient grant portal and process for this round.
Based on a very preliminary review, approximate 165 small businesses in Tukwila applied. The
demographics of the majority ownership of the businesses was self -identified as approximately 26%
African American/Black, 37% Asian American, 5% Hispanic, 2% LGBTQ+, 34% Woman, and 1%
Veteran. Note, ownership of a particular business may include multiple categories and not all
applications may be qualified. The State approved the grants in early May. Staff has requested the
final results for Tukwila businesses. On May 25th staff contacted six Tukwila businesses who had
been awarded grants but hadn't completed the process to receive the funds.
52
The federal government's $1.9 trillion American Rescue Plan Act includes very significant funding
to support business including $28.6 billion for a Restaurant Revitalization Fund, an additional $15
billion for Economic Injury Disaster Loans (EIDL), an additional $10 billion for State Small Business
Credit Initiative (SSBCI), and an additional $7.5 billion for the Paycheck Protection Program (PPP).
Those programs will be administered by the U.S. Small Business Administration. The PPP application
period ended on May 31.
King County is distributing $145 million of federal funds for residential rental assistance and eviction
prevention to tenants and landlords through their Eviction Prevention and Rental Assistance
Program (EPRAP). The program distributed $37 million in 2020. Landlords and tenants can apply.
Financial assistance is based on household income and other criteria. Eligible tenant applications
are selected by lottery. Human Services staff notified landlords with whom they have relationships
and on May 13 Code Enforcement staff sent an email to all licensed residential landlords
announcing the opportunity.
City staff sent an email to Tukwila businesses encouraging very small food and beverage
businesses to apply for a grant from the Restaurant Revitalization Fund. The application period
closed on May 24.
Unemployment
The unemployment claims data report will be included monthly. The report though April is included
in the agenda packet for the June 7th Council meeting.
On March 11, 2021, the President signed the $1.9 trillion American Rescue Plan Act. The new law
extends Pandemic Emergency Unemployment Compensation (PEUC), which is for workers who
have exhausted all other benefits, plus the Pandemic Unemployment Assistance (PUA), which
benefits people who do not qualify for regular unemployment such as self-employed people and
independent contractor, for an additional 29 weeks. It also extends the Federal Pandemic
Unemployment Compensation (FPUC) which provides an extra $300 per week for eligible
claimants who are receiving benefits from any unemployment program through September 6,
2021.
Information on employment resources for community members that have been affected by job
loss or reduced hours due to COVID is posted on the City's website and has been shared with
social service partners. Staff promoted it through our social media accounts.

* Mobile Vaccination Team
On Monday, March 1, 2021, the Tukwila Fire Department deployed its Mobile Vaccine Team (MVT)
to provide COVID-19 vaccines to eligible under the state's 1B category. At the May 24, 2021
Council meeting it was requeste that additional information on the MVT be provided. Below is a
write up from Deputy Chief Norm Golden:
The Tukwila Mobile Vaccination Team (MVT) consists of fire fighter/EMTs, city employees, elected
officials, and community members. The MVT delivers COVID vaccine to the residents of Tukwila
through a King County Public Health program. The medical authority for our EMTs is through the
King County Medical Directors, overtime funding is reimbursed through King County Public Health
(KCPH), and the vaccine is supplied through King County Public Health. This program can be
distinguished from other vaccine events that are partnerships such as the upcoming Costco/Foster
High School event. Our EMTs would need to seek approval through the Medical Directors prior to
administering shots for any program outside of King County Public Health events.
The Tukwila Mobile Vaccination Team (MVT) has shifted to join a regional MVT providing service in
south King County (fire Zone 3). The Tukwila MVT provided vaccine to our Adult Family Homes,
54
Senior Living Facilities, and Homebound residents. With those three main focus groups vaccinated,
the team joined with members of other departments to form the regional team. The regional team
is focusing on pop up events, sporting events, and homebound people.
The homebound program has two main pathways for people to get vaccine. The first is a formal
screening through King County Public Health, and the second is a more grass roots word-of-mouth
effort. The screening process identified five people in the city of Tukwila. Of those five people, two
have been vaccinated, and three have not responded to contact efforts. We have provided 11
vaccines via the word-of-mouth route. We continue to look for vaccination opportunities.
Here is how KCPH defines homebound individuals:
Definition of Homebound
People age 50 and older who have a medical condition that makes it difficult to leave the home
and for whom it would require considerable and taxing effort to access vaccine outside the
home. Their doctors have indicated that they should not leave the home to get a vaccine. Also,
people age 18 and older with a disability (defined below) that puts them at high risk to contract
COVID may also be meet the homebound definition.
Vaccine eligibility information related to homebound individuals. (Phase 1B tier 1 and 2 of
eligibility phases)
• Age 65 and older, people 50 and older who live in a multigenerational household and need
assistance from a caregiver
• People with a disability (16+) that puts them at high risk. This includes individuals with Down
syndrome, a developmental disability, or an intellectual disability, or who are deaf/hard of
hearing, blind/low-vision, or deafblind, AND that disability or an underlying medical
condition increases their risk for severe outcomes per the CDC's list of the conditions that
put people at increased risk of severe illness from COVID-19
• Examples: People with a physical or intellectual disability where they cannot use protective
measures (e.g., severe autism, epilepsy) o People with a physical or intellectual disability
that is clinically associated with severe outcomes if infected with COVID (e.g., down
syndrome, neurological condition) o People with a physical or intellectual disability AND at
least one of the comorbidities or medical conditions that increases risk or may increase risk
of severe illness from COVID-19
• Other household members who may be eligible: Caregivers (paid and unpaid) who
provide care to the homebound person or who work as a caregiver in other settings (LTC
facilities,=) health care workers at high risk for COVID-19 infection, educators and school
staff for pre -kindergarten through 12th grade, and childcare workers. High-risk critical
workers who work in certain congregate settings, and people 16 years or older who are
pregnant or have a disability that puts them at high risk for severe COVID-19 illness.

INFORMATIONAL MEMORANDUM
TO: City Council
FROM: Derek Speck, Economic Development Administrator
DATE: June 2, 2021
SUBJECT: Unemployment Insurance Report through April 2021
The attached graphs show the number of workers receiving unemployment insurance for zip
codes 98168 and 98188 for the week ending April 24, 2021.
The charts reflect three types of unemployment insurance claims: Regular, Pandemic
Unemployment Assistance (PUA), and Pandemic Emergency Unemployment Compensation
(PEUC). As you can see from the graphs, the number of workers receiving unemployment
insurance has improved significantly from the peak in May 2020. This reflects that many people
returned to work as businesses reopened and customers returned. After the initial reopening,
employment has continued to slowly improve; however, the number of people who are
unemployed remains very high. At the end of April, 11.0% of the workforce in 98168 and 15.5%
of the workforce in 98188 received unemployment compensation. For the same time period for
all of King County, 6.1% of the workforce received unemployment compensation. The higher
rates of workers receiving unemployment compensation in these two zip codes as compared to
King County is due to differences between the types of jobs and industries. Workers in these
two zip codes are more likely to work in jobs that cannot work remotely and in industries that
have been most affected by the pandemic such as entertainment, hospitality, retail, restaurants,
and transportation.
Notes:
(1) Unemployment insurance claims data is not available for the specific boundaries of the
City of Tukwila. The attached charts represent two zip codes, which include parts of
Tukwila, SeaTac, and possibly parts of unincorporated King County.
(2) Regular unemployment is the standard program for unemployed workers. Eligible
unemployed workers may receive regular unemployment for up to 26 weeks.
(3) Pandemic Unemployment Assistance (PUA) is a program for self-employed people,
independent contractors, and part-time workers (with fewer than 680 hours).
(4) Pandemic Emergency Unemployment Compensation (PEUC) is an extension of regular
unemployment benefits.
(5) Data is from https://www.kingcounty.gov/depts/health/covid-
19/data/impacts/u nemployment.aspx.
(6) The percent of workers receiving unemployment insurance compensation is related but
not the same as the "unemployment rate". Official unemployment rates are not available
for cities under 25,000 in population. Currently, unemployment rates likely understate the
actual percent of workers who are receiving unemployment compensation.

Synopsis of Above Metrics
1. New for April 2021: this report now compares current -year months with an average of the same
month from 2016-2019. For example, January 2021 is being compared to the 2016-2019 average
January. The column "YTD" compares Jan -May 2021 with those same months from 2016-2019.
2. This report tracks the frequency of calls within each station's geographic region. For any call that TFD
is dispatched to outside of Tukwila city limits, "OSA" designates the Station area. OSA is an
abbreviation for Outside Agency Assist.
3. Total TFD Call Volume in May '21 represented an increase of 8% compared to May '16-'19. In other
words, May '21 had 37 more calls than the recent average May.
4. The May change in calls came from EMS (-1%, -3 calls) and Fire (34%, 34 calls). May '21 had no "other"
calls.
5. Throughout this report the sum of EMS, Fire, and Service calls may not equal the "Total" number of
calls for a given month. This is because there are a few infrequent call -types that either do not prompt
a response (informational only) or do not cleanly fit into one of the three response types mentioned
(for example: ALERT*, or aircraft troubles). 2021, YTD, has averaged 3.5 such "Other" calls per month.
6. 2021 YTD calls have increased by 110 (5%) compared to the Jan -May 2016-2019 average.
Additional notes:
1. Feb 2020 is a leap month with 3.57% more days than the previous three Febs.
2. Because of their infrequent occurrence, Fire and Service response calls are more subject to wilder "% Changes"
than EMS responses. YTD, we've averaged just a few of these types of calls (combined) each day. An increase or
decrease of just one of these types of calls per day would result in a change of about a third. This helps to
explain some of the volatility in the graphs and charts.
pg. 4
The solid line on the following charts represents 2021 calls while the floating columns represent 2016-2019
data. The top of the column is the highest number of calls while the bottom is the lowest number. The red dot
in the center of each column is the mean from 2016-2019 for each month.

The deviations in Area 51 and 52 calls can partially be explained by the recent relocations of
each station.
Of the five charts above, the last one depicting OSA responses is the most interesting. Tukwila
firefighters responded to an abnormally high number of incidents outside city limits in March
and April with a high percentage of visits to Burien and SeaTac. Though somewhat abated, the
trend continued in May.
