INFORMATIONAL MEMORANDUM
TO: Planning and Community Development Committee
FROM: Nora Gierloff, AICP, DCD Director
BY: Nancy Eklund, AICP
CC: Mayor Ekberg
DATE: May 31, 2022
SUBJECT: Tukwila 2024-2044 Comprehensive Plan Update Process - Briefing
ISSUE
This agenda item is to brief the Planning Commission on the required Periodic Update of the
City’s Comprehensive Plan, to be completed by the end of 2024.
Staff briefed the City Council Planning and Community Development Committee on June 6,
2022, and requested direction to begin work on the Tukwila Comprehensive Plan Periodic
Update. The Committee forwarded the item to the City Council Committee of the Whole for
consideration on June 27, 2022.
BACKGROUND
The Washington State Growth Management Act (GMA) requires certain cities, towns, and
counties to develop comprehensive plans that plan for anticipated population growth in a
coordinated and intentional way, creating both regional and statewide alignment.
Comprehensive Planning provides cities with the opportunity to consider how and where they
want to distribute growth, accommodate new trends, and coordinate municipal and community
efforts to adapt to change over time.
The GMA requires that each jurisdiction, as part of an eight-year periodic review cycle (RCW
36.70A.130)1, take legislative action to review and, if needed, revise their comprehensive plan
and associated development regulations to ensure that they comply with the GMA. At a
minimum, the review must include consideration of critical area ordinances and provide an
analysis of how the City will plan for population growth expected over the next 20 years.
The review of the comprehensive plan and development regulations is required to include a
public participation program, and needs to address state laws identified through Washington
Department of Commerce GMA Periodic Review Checklist; align with the Puget Sound Regional
Council’s Vision 2050 and Regional Growth Strategy; respond to the King County Countywide
Planning Policies (CPPs); and address any planning issues identified as locally important. The
City of Tukwila’s periodic review and necessary updates must be adopted by December 31,
2024.
1 This interval was amended to require plan updating every 10 years by the 2022 legislature. 3

Tukwila’s Comprehensive Plan
A comprehensive plan is a broad statement of community goals and policies that direct the
orderly and coordinated physical development of a jurisdiction into the future. It reflects the
results of public involvement, technical analysis, and the judgment of decision makers. The
goals, policies, and maps of this Comprehensive Plan provide the guide for designating the use
of land, implementing regulations, investing in infrastructure, and developing programs and
services.
The City’s first Comprehensive Plan under GMA was adopted in 1995. The Plan has been kept
current with specific annual updates, as well as through a more comprehensive review in 2004
and in a phased review from 2011 through 2015. During each update, the City reached out to
City residents, employees, and property owners to encourage them to participate in shaping
the priorities that would be identified in the Plan. A plan for how that outreach will occur for
this coming update is being developed.
The City’s current Comprehensive Plan includes the following elements (i.e., chapters):
Required Elements Optional Elements
Land Use* Natural Environment
Housing Shoreline
Capital Facilities Residential Neighborhoods
Utilities Subarea plans
Transportation Tukwila International Boulevard District
Economic Development Tukwila South
Parks, Recreation and Open Space Southcenter – Tukwila’s Urban Center
Manufacturing / Industrial Center
Community Image and Identity
Roles and Responsibilities
*The City does not have a single Land Use element but has individual elements for the major areas of
the City.
Each element provides goals and policies, which are realized through the implementation of the
City’s associated development regulations. At the time of the adoption of the Comprehensive
Plan, all implementing regulations must also be adopted.
2024 Tukwila Comprehensive Plan Update
The 2024 update will integrate state, regional, and county requirements with community
feedback, the City Council’s vision for the City, and guidance from City studies and plans. The
scope of the update includes:
1. Confirming and updating the vision for growth and development in the City, including
expanding housing and employment capacity within the City, its identified Regional Growth
Centers, and targeted local centers, to be consistent with the growth targets identified in
the Countywide Planning Policies (CPPs);

Info Memo 7-11-22 mtg.docx
2. Amending the Housing element section to be consistent with the revised Housing section of
the CPPs and addressing the need for more housing types and affordable options for all;
3. Including policies that address and aim to correct the legacy of discrimination;
4. Employing consistent, equitable outreach and engagement with the full diversity of the
City’s communities;
5. Including policies that address the causes and impacts of climate change and enhance the
resiliency of the built and natural environments;
6. Making policy changes in all the elements that reflect the City’s priorities for the next 20
years;
7. Updating the Plan’s implementation strategies to ensure local accountability for
implementing the plan, and enabling the City to comply with new requirements that an
implementation monitoring report be submitted within 5 years of the Plan Update’s
adoption; and
8. Exploring opportunities to modify the format and presentation of the Plan and its goals and
policies to enhance the document’s accessibility and utility to the City Council, City
departments and staff, and residential, commercial, and business communities. This could
mean reviewing existing policies to identify opportunities for consolidating policy intent to
help streamline the City’s policy direction.
The update will include changes to numerous elements of the plan and, possibly, the future
land use map. Updates to the vision and policy direction of the plan may be required as public
outreach either confirms or revises the community vision. The level of environmental review
that will be needed for this update (per the State Environmental Policy Act) will likely be an
addendum to the existing environmental documents, depending on the degree of “course
correction” expressed during the public outreach.
DISCUSSION
The horizon year for the upcoming comprehensive plan update is 2044. To plan for 2044, the
comprehensive plan will need edits to many sections. As guided by policy direction from Vision
2050 and the CPPs, one significant focus of the update will be to evaluate and enhance the jobs
and housing balance within the City. This balance is key to supporting regional mobility, access
to living-wage jobs, and affordable housing.
Housing and Jobs Targets
Housing and jobs targets are based on population forecasts done by the Washington Office of
Financial Management (OFM). Population is then allocated to counties by the PSRC, and then
to the regional geographies and individual cities by the County. In King County, the Urban
Growth Capacity Analysis (Buildable Lands) evaluates housing unit and employment capacity in
each city based on existing development, zoning, and development projects in the pipeline.

Info Memo 7-11-22 mtg.docx
The capacity analysis informs the assignment of housing and employment targets for each City,
which are then adopted as part of the King County Countywide Planning Policies (CPPs).
The CPPs define the growth targets for housing and jobs for each city within King County.
Based on forecasts, the population growth for the Puget Sound region for 2019-2044 period is
anticipated to be approximately 1.3 million and job growth projection is 884,450 jobs. King
County is expected to take approximately 50 percent of this growth. Tukwila is one of the 10
Core cities in King County, and collectively these Core cities are expected to plan for 112,850
new housing units and 222,800 new jobs. Tukwila’s 2044 growth targets (in the blue column
below) are as follows:

Security Department's (ESD) Quarterly Census of Employment and Wages (QCEW) series)
(Covered employment refers to a specific category of work that is protected by the United States labor laws. These
laws prohibit employers from discriminating against employees or applicants based on certain characteristics, such
as race, sex, or age. Covered employment also includes workers who are eligible for overtime pay and other
benefits.)
The Buildable Lands process indicated that Tukwila has both sufficient housing and job capacity
to absorb the targets for housing units and jobs for the 2044 horizon. Although the City has
capacity for this growth, the City’s overall rate of growth has been well below that needed to
achieve the targets. Between 2018 and 2020, a total of 846 housing units were constructed in
Tukwila, a sharp rise from the 2006-2018 period when a total of 130 new units were added.
This reflects new multifamily developments in the Tukwila Urban Center and the Tukwila
International Blvd. corridor.

Affordable Housing
In addition, the 2021 Washington Legislature instructed local governments to “plan for and
accommodate” housing affordable to all income levels. These requirements include an
inventory and analysis of existing and projected housing needs for all economic segments, as
well as the need for permanent supportive housing, emergency housing, and emergency
shelters.
The requirements mandate that jurisdictions link their goals with overall County goals to ensure
that the comprehensive plan housing element goals are met. Commerce will be providing
these projections of affordable housing need to King County, and then the County will work
with its cities to project their individual housing need, broken out by income levels (moderate,
low, very low and extremely low income), as well as special housing needs (emergency housing,
emergency shelters and permanent supportive housing). The County’s Affordable Housing
Committee of the Growth Management Planning Council (GMPC) will identify the affordable
housing need allocations by November 2022, and will provide a recommendation to the GMPC
for their action in early 2023.
One of the largest challenges that Washington communities are facing is how to provide
“missing middle” housing. Missing Middle Housing is defined as a range of modestly sized
buildings with multiple units – compatible in scale and form with detached single family homes
– that are located within walkable neighborhoods. This housing can include duplexes, triplexes,
fourplexes, cottage courts, multiplexes, and other small-footprint homes, and is typically two to
three stories in height. Because of the diversity in unit footprint, this type of housing also
provides a wider range of housing costs. Tukwila has also prioritized greater housing
development and options in the City’s Urban Center and those areas adjacent to the transit
hubs.
Additional Focus Areas of the Update (based on direction CPPs and Vision 2050)
In addition to addressing the strategy for achieving the City’s housing and job targets, the
Comprehensive Plan’s update will also need to:
embed race and social equity into the planning process and plan content;
address the potential for displacement of residents and jobs;
strengthen and preserve a strong sense of community in the face of environmental and
social changes;
improve the quality of life for Tukwila residents; and
consider how to support community resilience in response to disruptive environmental,
economic, and social events.
The updated comprehensive plan will address these values and issues in a cohesive, accessible
document that expresses continuity in community vision, goals, policies, strategies, and
implementation actions.
Several ongoing parallel efforts may continue to shift the direction of Plan update work over
the next couple years. Ongoing legislative actions, particularly regarding potential
requirements for a new Climate and Resiliency Element, and additional provisions for “missing

middle” housing may continue to impact the baseline state requirements. Rulemaking for the
2022 legislation will also guide the update. Staff will provide additional detail at subsequent
study sessions highlighting the schedule and potential impacts for this ongoing work. A high-
level draft schedule is included as an attachment to this memo (Attachment A).
Community Engagement Strategy: Throughout the development of the plan, staff will
periodically check in with the Council regarding the plan’s progress. The Tukwila Planning
Commission is tasked with reviewing proposed amendments, and conducting public outreach
and ultimately a public hearing, after which the plan is forwarded to the Council (TMC 18.80).
The Council will then review the recommendation, hold another public hearing, and issue a
decision. DCD staff will develop a public engagement plan for the process that will be shared
with the Council at a future meeting.
DCD is coordinating with other City departments to combine engagement efforts as they work
on related projects such as Public Works’ Transportation Master Plan and the Economic
Development Plan. The intent of this coordination is to increase efficiency and reduce outreach
fatigue. We are also drawing on information from other efforts such as Health Point’s
community engagement report.
Public engagement will be conducted through surveys, outreach to identified community
groups deemed relevant for revising each element, and through limited meetings with the
public. While a robust outreach is desirable, the staff will work within its available resources,
unless the Council wishes to have more public engagement than can be reasonably conducted
in-house. Staff will evaluate options and make a request of council if appropriate. Phases of
the public engagement plan are as follows:
Phase 1: Vision Engagement – Prepares residents to participate by building awareness
of the Comprehensive Plan, gathering feedback on livability-related issues, and building
relationships with diverse community groups through conversations about key data and
trends.
Phase 2: Policy Engagement – Engages public in discussions about policy direction and
growth strategy.
Phase 3: Revise and Refinement – Residents will be invited to respond to the draft and
contribute to refining policy changes. The timeline is integrated with the overall
timeline.

FINANCIAL IMPACT
The process of reviewing, analyzing, and updating the City’s Comprehensive Plan in order to
align with the new policy direction and other state and regional mandates will require
significant staff time and possible consultant assistance. Limited funding from the Washington
Department of Commerce has been made available for periodic update work; “missing middle”
housing planning as well as racial equity analysis and development of anti-displacement
policies; and development of an optional climate action element. Staff are currently developing
grant applications for some of that funding. The department may provide a request for
additional City funds to support the effort as a part of the City’s annual budget process.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that this item be forwarded to the City Council Committee of the Whole on
June 27th, 2022.

Attachment A
SCHEDULE
Updating the Comprehensive Plan will be a two-year process to adequately address the full
scope of work.
The following phases will be informed by the input received from the City’s elected and
appointed officials, staff, and various stakeholders, and the public.
Phase 1: Project Kick-off and Vision Statement Update. The goals of this phase are to refine
and update the Vision in the Comprehensive Plan to align with the community’s and the
Council’s vision for the City. During this phase, we will initiate the community engagement
plan.
Phase 2a: Analyze and Lay the Foundation. This is a technical exercise ensuring that
language and policies are consistent with the City Council direction and priorities across
elements. This effort will also provide data to the community about the City’s current
environment and will seek feedback and input on local priorities in order to build the
foundation of understanding needed to develop a Plan for the City’s future.
Phase 2b: Audit and Evaluate Plan Goals and Policy Foundation. Relative to required Plan
modifications necessary due to state, regional, and county policy guidance, and City Council
direction and priorities, and community input, assess the degree of modification needed to
comply with update requirements. The Washington Department of Commerce checklist
(expected to be released in Summer 2022) will be used, along with the Puget Sound
Regional Council Certification Checklist.
Phase 3: With an understanding of the breadth of regulatory requirements, and community
guidance, the city will develop any land use alternatives necessary, which may require
substantive environmental review. At this time, the City is intending to use the ability to
update the environmental review of the Plan with an addendum. This phase will define
whether greater environmental review (i.e., an environmental impact statement) of
alternatives is warranted, in which case, additional city funding will be necessary.
Phase 4: Revise and Refine. This phase includes the revision of the draft update based
on feedback from the Council, boards, and commissions (including Planning
Commission), and community.
The state requires the Plan be adopted no later than December 2024. Staff’s timeline
plans on discussing plan updates with the Planning Commission starting in Summer
2022 and conducting public hearings on the various elements between 2023 and 2024,
with the Planning Commission holding final public hearings on the full document in early
2024 and Council adopting the Plan in Summer or fall 2024.

INFORMATIONAL MEMORANDUM
TO: Committee of the Whole
FROM: Laurel Humphrey, Legislative Analyst
DATE: July 1, 2022
SUBJECT: Council Rules Update – Remote Meeting Attendance
ISSUE
Update Council Rules allowing remote meeting attendance pursuant to Engrossed Substitute
House Bill 1329.
BACKGROUND
The Washington Legislature passed Engrossed Substitute House Bill 1329 which amended the
Open Public Meetings Act with minimal impact to Tukwila. Staff briefed the Finance &
Governance Committee on these changes in April, including the issue of remote attendance
at City Council meetings.
Per ESHB 1329, City Council members are now allowed to participate in meetings remotely,
even in times of non-emergency, if their Rules of Procedure allow. Tukwila’s current City
Council Rules of Procedure only allow for remote attendance at a meeting that is fully remote
by all members as a result of an emergency. The Finance & Governance Committee requested
that staff prepare an amendment to address ESHB 1329. The Committee agreed that in-
person attendance is an important part of public service but acknowledged that individual
circumstances may warrant occasional virtual attendance, and the city has successfully
implemented the technology to allow this. The Committee reviewed staff’s proposal in May
and requested the addition of language addressing pandemic related quarantine.
The attached resolution proposes language allowing a Councilmember’s remote attendance
at Regular and Committee of the Whole meetings in times of non-emergency, but with
limitations.
The City Council’s Rules of Procedure are intended to be flexible and periodically revisited to
account for best practices, changes to state law, and emerging needs. Staff suggests a more
thorough review of the full Rules of Procedure in 2023, a non-budget year.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff is seeking Council direction on the draft resolution.

A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF TUKWILA,
WASHINGTON, AMENDING EXHIBIT A, “RULES OF PROCEDURE
OF THE TUKWILA CITY COUNCIL,” OF RESOLUTION NO. 2022
REGARDING REMOTE ATTENDANCE AT MEETINGS, REVISING
RULE II.G., “REMOTE MEETINGS.”
WHEREAS, Chapter 35A.11.020 RCW gives the City Council of each code city the power
to organize and regulate its internal operations within the provisions of Title 35A RCW; and
WHEREAS, the City Council seeks to periodically update its meeting and other business
procedures to align with state law, the current environment and modern best practices; and
WHEREAS, in 2022 the Washington State Legislature passed Engrossed Substitute
House Bill 1329 which allows members of a governing body to participate remotely in a
meeting during a non-emergent period; and
WHEREAS, during the COVID-19 pandemic emergency and pursuant to Governor’s
Proclamation 20-28, the City Council implemented virtual public meetings that allowed City
business to continue with all members being remote; and
WHEREAS, with the expiration of Governor’s Proclamation 20-28 the City Council has
continued hybrid meetings allowing both in-person and remote attendance; and
WHEREAS, the City Council recognizes the value of in-person attendance at meetings
as an integral part of public service, yet intends for the Rules of Procedure to allow the flexibility
of remote meeting attendance under limited circumstances and in accordance with the
Washington State Open Public Meetings Act;
NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF TUKWILA,
WASHINGTON, HEREBY RESOLVES AS FOLLOWS:
Exhibit A, “Rules of Procedure of the Tukwila City Council,” of Resolution No. 2022 is

LH:bjs Review and analysis by Barbara Saxton Page 2 of 2

meeting, or work session.
2 a. During a fully-remote meeting, Councilmembers may attend by phone or
other electronic means that allow all participants to hear one another.
3 b. Fully-remote meetings are open to the public and arrangements must be
conducted such that the public can hear the meeting while it is occurring, subject to the
requirements of RCW 42.30.
2. In times of non-emergency, the City Council recognizes the value of in-person
attendance at meetings as integral to public service. However, remote attendance by a
Councilmember not physically able to be present, whether for all or part of a meeting, is
allowed subject to the following provisions:
a. Councilmembers may attend remotely a maximum of five Regular or
Committee of the Whole meetings per calendar year; provided the Council may, by majority
vote, allow a Councilmember to attend additional meetings remotely in excess of five per year
due to medical or other factors beyond the individual’s control.
b. A Councilmember planning to attend a meeting remotely should notify the
Legislative Analyst and/or Council President no later than two hours prior to the meeting start
time or 15 minutes prior to an emergency meeting.
c. A Councilmember attending remotely will be marked present, counted
toward a quorum, and can vote just as if physically present.
d. If a Councilmember’s virtual connection should become lost during the
meeting, the meeting should continue unless quorum is no longer met. A Councilmember’s
loss of a virtual connection will not be counted toward the maximum limit described in Section
2.a.
e. Councilmembers are expected to follow current pandemic quarantine
procedures as recommended by Public Health – Seattle & King County. Remote attendance
for this purpose will not be counted toward the maximum limit described in Section 2.a.

BACKGROUND
At the June 27, 2022 meeting, the City Council unanimously agreed with the recommendation

toward near-term annexation. More information about that decision and the process

office/key-city-plans-and-projects/future-of-fire-ems-services/
DISCUSSION
PSRFA has requested a contract negotiated by September 1 to be effective January 1, 2023.
As previously discussed with the Council, considerations to be addressed in the contract
negotiations include:
