H. BUSINESS AGENDA
A. Howard Hanson Dam Flood Response Plan: Resolution Declaring Surolus Property
Staff is seeking full Council approval of a resolution declaring the log cabin located at 5829 South 140`
Street as surplus property.
The log cabin is located on property that is a low spot on the west bank of the Duwamish River which
poses a flooding risk and liability to the City. Once declared surplus, the City will be able to move
forward with appropriate demolition of the structure and construction of flood protection measures.
This structure has no historical value. UNANIMOUS APPROVAL. FORWARD TO SEPTEMBER 14
COW FOR DISCUSSION.
B. Gillaim Creek Basin Stormwater Overflow Bid Award
Staff is seeking full Council approval to award a bid in the amount of $360,530 to Reed Trucking and
Excavating Inc. for construction of the Gilliam Creek Stormwater Overflow project.
Moved forward from 2013, this item was heard in Committee on June 23, and subsequently approved by
Council July 6. Due to the urgency of this project as well as the upcoming 5 Monday, staff has requested
this item move forward to the next scheduled Council meeting which is Tuesday, September 8.
Committee members recognize that recently many items have bypassed the complete regular Council
process (committee, COW, Regular); however, they also acknowledge the importance and time sensitivity
of this particular item. Acting Chair Hernandez requested staff attach a copy of the appropriate CIP or
budget page relative to this project. UNANIMOUS APPROVAL. FORWARD TO SEPTMBER 8
REGULAR FOR DISCUSSION.
C. 2009 Annual Small Drainage Program King Countv Interlocal Cooperation Agreement
Staff is requesting full Council approval to enter into an Interlocal Cooperation Agreement with King
County for Distribution of the King County Flood Control Zone District's (KCFCZD) Sub Regional
Opportunity Fund.
The Sub Regional Opportunity Fund addresses flooding at a local level. As voted on by the King County
Board of Supervisors, monies from this Fund will be allocated proportionally to each jurisdiction from
which funds were collected. This Agreement will allow Tukwila the ability to collect reimbursement for
projects through this Fund. Staff anticipates this to be an annual item. UNANIMOUS APPROVAL.
FORWARD TO SEPTEMBER 14 COW FOR DISCUSSION.
