SUBJECT: Council Deliberation Process for Tukwila South Project
ISSUE
How do Councilmembers want to conduct the Tukwila South Project review process?
BACKGROUND
During the introduction to the Tukwila South Project at the April 13, 2009 Committee of the
Whole meeting, staff asked Council to discuss and agree how Council members want to
conduct the review process for the Tukwila South Project over the next few weeks. Council
members reached consensus on 1) adding a discussion on the review process for Tukwila
South Project to the April 20 Regular meeting agenda and 2) asking staff for process options.
DISCUSSION
Options for ways to conduct the review meetings, or "ground rules," are suggested below.
Councilmembers may use all, use some, add some, or use none. The options include:
1. Requests for additional information or research by staff or applicants are made by Council
consensus.
2. Review of the Development Agreement and other applications is by topic, such as risk,
financing, development issues, and others.
3. All Tukwila South Project issues go to the full Council at the Committee of the Whole level
as they are inter related, so all Councilmembers hear all discussion.
4. Decisions on acceptability of the proposals are by Council consensus.
5. Council members may contact individual staff members for one -on -one discussions; the
Council member will disclose the contact to all Council members and the staff will disclose
information discussed promptly to the Council.
6. Meetings will be for 2 hours unless a consensus exists to extend them for a specific
additional time.
7. Suggestions for amendments or changes related to a specific topic will be made before
the Council discussion moves to another topic.
8. Once a topic is concluded, it will not be reopened unless there is consensus from the
Council.
9. Consensus is defined as a majority of Councilmembers who agree with the
issue /item /direction.
