Finance and Safety Committee
FROM: Shawn Hunstock, Finance Director
DATE: October 29, 2009
SUBJECT: 2009 -2010 Mid Biennium Budget Amendment
Jim Haggerton, Mayor
The Council must review and, if necessary, pass an Ordinance providing for a mid
biennium budget amendment, in accordance with RCW 35A.34.130. The amendment, if
necessary, must be passed before the end of the calendar year.
The City Council passed Ordinance 2221 on December 15, 2008, adopting the 2009-
2010 biennial budget. The City has amended the adopted budget several times during
2009, primarily related to identified cost savings that were moved into Department 20 in
the General Fund.
The budget amendment being proposed addresses several different items:
1. Final amendment for calendar year 2009, addressing projected deficits in the
Finance and Legal departments.
2. Implementation of the water, sewer and surface water utility taxes.
3. Funding for Howard Hanson Dam related expenditures.
4. Implementation of the COPS grant.
5. Across the -board three percent reduction from each department for 2010.
6. Implementation of identified costs savings for employer PERS contributions as
well as a health /dental insurance premium holiday for 2010.
7. Correction of funding for 2009 and 2010 departmental fuel purchases.
8. Other miscellaneous adjustments.
Some items have been discussed before, such as the three percent reduction, PERS
savings and the insurance premium holiday. One of the items included with this
amendment is funding for the Howard Hanson Dam planning and mitigation efforts.
Funding will primarily come from newly enacted utility taxes. The new funding source is
expected to generate $1.7 million in 2009 and $1.4 million in 2010, for a total of
approximately $3.1 million. Including the $1.285 million we anticipate receiving from the
INFORMATIONAL MEMO
Page 2
King County Flood Zone Control District, the total funding would be just under $4.4
million. The recommendation from Administration is to reserve approximately $500,000
in each of 2009 and 2010 within fund balance in the General Fund for later identified
needs. This would leave about $3.4 million over the next year for flood planning and
mitigation efforts.
One of the items that came to light recently was a lack of funding at the department
level for fuel purchases in both 2009 and 2010. For some reason this was inadvertently
left out of the biennial budget when it was adopted. The General Fund impact for both
years of the biennium is $519,468. The recommendation is to fund departments for
these costs, which will represent revenue in the Equipment Replacement Reserve
fund (501). The revenue was already budgeted for in the 501 fund.
The budget amendment also includes funding of the COPS grant. The anticipated
expenditures in 2010 are $553,557, with grant revenue of $265,072, for a General Fund
contribution of $288,485.
Items in the Finance Department budget that were unfunded, or underfunded, include
$25,000 of audit costs, in excess of budget, from the State Auditors Office, $34,000 for
the EDEN Project Accounting module, $22,000 for EDEN Cashiering module expenses,
$10,500 for additional EDEN maintenance costs, $20,000 for outside labor and $24,000
in separation pay for a former employee. The EDEN Cashiering Module expenses are
ones that Council approved in 2008, but given the timing of the implementation and
training in January 2009, not all of these costs were paid for last year. The outside labor
costs were necessary due to critical deadlines related to the audit and annual financial
report at a time when we were short staffed and lacked continuity from prior year for
both processes. Also included for 2009 is $16,000 for an indirect cost study to be
conducted by year end or soon thereafter. This study was recommended by the State
Auditors Office since it has been many years since the study was last updated.
Also paid for by the Finance Department are citywide claims for amounts that are less
than our deductibles with WCIA. The total of these claims have historically been about
$175,000 each year. The budget amendment provides funding for the claims expenses
in 2009 and 2010.
The budget amendment also includes funding for the Legal department of $125,000 in
2009 and $75,000 in 2010. This is for Special Matters within the Legal budget, resulting
primarily from the Tukwila South negotiations and implementation of the development
agreement. It is expected that some of these costs will continue into 2010.
RECOMMENDATION
Council is being asked to approve the ordinance amending the adopted 2009 -2010
biennial budget.
This item is scheduled to be discussed at the November 9, 2009 Committee of the
Whole Meeting. A Public Hearing will also be held that evening. It is also scheduled for
the December 7, 2009 Regular Meeting.

Project No. 84 -RW19
Ordinance to Form Local Improvement District (LID)
ISSUE
Ordinance to Form LID #33 for the Tukwila Urban Center (TUC) Access Project.
BACKGROUND
In 2005, the Transportation Improvement Board (TIB) informed the City that in order to be competitive for TIB grant funding,
formation of an LID was strongly recommended. In response to the TIB, the City began taking steps toward forming an LID as
part of the overall project funding.
The City has pursued No- Protest Agreements from property owners as development has occurred. These agreements state
that the property owner will not protest the formation of an LID for the TUC Access (Klickitat) Project. The property owner can
protest the Final Assessment Roll amount. No- Protest Agreements have been signed by Westfield Mall and Wig Development.
Resolution No. 1698 for the Intent to Form a Local Improvement District was presented to City Council on October 26, 2009
and was approved unanimously. Notices were sent to all property owners of record on October 1, 2009, which included the
preliminary assessment amount for each property within the LID boundary, and on October 29, 2009, which only included the
Notice of Public Hearing. The preliminary assessments were based on the Preliminary Assessment Roll, which was presented
at the Public Hearing on September 21, 2009 where Resolution No. 1690 was passed (subsequently superseded by
Resolution No. 1698).
DISCUSSION
City of Tukwila
Jim Haggerton, Mayor
Forming an LID involves many steps that must be taken in a specific order and adhere to specific notification schedules. The
first step was adoption of a Resolution of Intent to Form a Local Improvement District. The second step is for Council to hold a
second Public Hearing to consider adopting the Ordinance to Form a LID, scheduled on November 16, 2009
The Ordinance was initially presented to the Transportation Committee on October 5, 2009. Staff verbally recommended the
use of a Hearing Examiner to hold the Public Hearing for the Final Assessment Roll due to the technical complexities of the
potential arguments of property owners challenging their assessment amounts. The attached ordinance has been modified
from the original one presented to include language referring that Public Hearing to the Hearing Examiner.
RECOMMENDATION
The Council is being asked to approve the Ordinance to Form an LID for the TUC Access (Klickitat) Project and consider this
item at the November 9, 2009 Committee of the Whole meeting and subsequent November 16, 2009 Regular Meeting for a
Public Hearing and approval.

construction of improvements to urban access for the Southcenter area as described in
Exhibit A attached hereto and by this reference incorporated herein. All of the foregoing
shall be in accordance with the plans and specifications therefore prepared by the
Public Works Director, and may be modified by the City Council as long as such
modification does not affect the purpose of the improvement.
Section 2. There is created and established a local improvement district to be called
Local Improvement District No. 33, of the City of Tukwila, Washington (the "District"),
the boundaries of the District being more particularly described in Exhibit B attached

that shall bear interest at a rate, and be payable on or before a date, to be hereafter fixed

authorized and not redeemed in cash within 20 days after the expiration of the 30 -day
period for the cash payment without interest of assessments on the assessment roll for
the District. The bonds shall be redeemed by the collection of special assessments to be
levied and assessed against the property within the district, payable in annual
installments, with interest at a rate to be hereafter fixed by ordinance under the mode of

ordinance or its application to any person or situation should be held to be invalid or

unconstitutionality shall not affect the validity or constitutionality of the remaining
portions of this ordinance or its application to any other person or situation.

II. BUSINESS AGENDA
A. TIB Phase II III and Annual Traffic Signal Purchase
Staff is seeking full Council approval to purchase six traffic signal control cabinets from Western Systems
in the amount of $120,947.13.
Funding for this purchase is budgeted in the 104 Arterial Street Fund. Two of the four cabinets will be
utilized in the TIB Phase II and III project. The remaining four cabinets will be purchased as part of the
Annual Traffic Signal Program and utilized for expansion of the City's Intelligent Transportation System
(ITS) which provides real -time remote signal and closed circuit television.
The purchase of the cabinets will enable ITS control and the following intersections:
Tukwila International Boulevard and South 130
Tukwila International Boulevard and South 132n
Tukwila International Boulevard and South 144
Tukwila International Boulevard and South 112
Tukwila International Boulevard and South Boeing Access Road

In regards to project priority and funding, staff explained the importance of this purchase relative to traffic
signal timing plans in the Urban Center, in relation to event specific timing plans and evacuation routes.
UNANIMOUS APPROVAL. FORWARD TO OCTOBER 12 COW FOR DISCUSSION.
B. Tukwila Urban Center Access Proiect (Klickitat) Ordinance to Form a Local Improvement District
Staff is seeking full Council approval of an ordinance to form Local Improvement District (LID) #33 for the
Tukwila Urban Center Access Project (Klickitat).
On September 28, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 1690, an Intent to Form a Local Improvement
District. A public hearing on the resolution was held on September 21, at that time, the preliminary
assessment roll was presented. Based on this information, staff was prepared to move forward with a draft
ordinance for Committee review and subsequent forwarding to the October 12 COW, as well as a public
hearing regarding the ordinance tentatively scheduled for October 19.
Unfortunately, the resolution did not include the public hearing date for the ordinance. This technical error
will require the Resolution of Intent to be redone with the required information. This error will delay full
Transportation Committee Minutes October 5. 2009 Paae 2
Council consideration of the ordinance until the process has been noticed correctly. However, the
Committee is still able to act on the draft ordinance agenda item at this meeting.
Cyndy Knighton will distribute an updated timeline for the LID process once dates for the new resolution
and appropriate public hearings are scheduled.
It is anticipated that issues regarding the final assessment roll will be heard by the Hearing Examiner. In
response to this, Committee members noted the importance of full Council understanding of appropriate
information sharing for the public hearing on the draft ordinance relative to LID formation. UNANIMOUS
APPROVAL. FORWARD TO A FUTURE COW FOR DISCUSSION.
C. Walk Roll Proeram Desien Report Undate
Jaime Reavis provided an informational update to Committee on a design and engineering report being

Roll Plan.
The draft report discusses potential options and interim improvements, suggesting recommendations and
feasibility for trails, bike lanes, shared lanes (including sharrows), bicycle boulevards and sidewalk
segments.
Staff anticipates report completion by the end of the year. The consultant report will be available to full
Council once edits are finished. The next step will be for the consultant to conduct preliminary design work
on identified options. Recommendations will be based on phased approaches dependent on scheduled road
improvements. INFORMATION ONLY.

A. Tukwila Urban Center Access Protect (Klickitat) Ordinance to Form a Local Improvement District
Staff is seeking full Council approval of an ordinance to form Local Improvement District (LID) #33 for the
Tukwila Urban Center Access Project (Khckitat).

the Washington State Department of Transportation, and based on recommendations, future needs and
County abilities, City staff will utilize the County services on a trial basis for one year.
A contract in this amount of funding does not require Committee process or Council approval. However,
staff is providing this as an informational only item on the City's annual bridge inspections.

To: Mayor Haggerton
From: rublic Works Directs
Date: October 22, 2009
Subject: Water. Sewer and Surface Water Rates for 2010
Adopt 2010 water, sewer and surface water rate increases.
Jim Haggerton, Mayor
Public Works has analyzed the needs of the water enterprise fund. Wholesale water
rates from Cascade Water Alliance are projected to increase 7.5% for 2010 and 5% in
2011. A rate increase on the minimum water meter charge (see Table 1) is being
proposed to maintain the current level of service and lessen the impact of future cost
increases for purchased water. A portion of this increase will provide the funds
necessary for continuing operational and capital needs. Exhibit A is an overview of all of
the Proposed Utility Rate Increases for residential customers. Exhibit D is the
Resolution that updates the Public Works Fee Schedule.
SEWER
King County Ordinance No. 16554 has no sewer rate increase for the King County
sewage disposal fees in 2010 and the rate will remain $31.90 per residential customer
equivalent per month. The King County sewage treatment capacity charge (for any new
sewer connections) will increase from the current $47.64 to $49.07 per month for fifteen
years for any sewer connection occurring between January 1, 2010 and December 31,
2010. Exhibit B is King County Ordinance No. 16554.
Tukwila's sewer base rate is scheduled for an increase (see Table 2) in accordance with
the rate model which analyzes the City's operational and capital needs. The City's
sewer rate will increase from $11.64 to $13.39 per residential connection and from
$20.37 to $23.43 for up to 750 cubic feet or fraction thereof for commercial /industrial
customers. Exhibit C -1 shows a comparison of adjoining cities and their water and
sewer rates. Exhibit D is the Resolution that updates the Public Works Fee Schedule.
Tukwila's surface water base rate is scheduled for an increase in 2010. The City's
surface water rate will increase from $71.00 to $85.00 per residential parcel, per year
and will range from $10.18 to $85.05 per 4,356 sq. ft. Exhibit C -2 shows a comparison
with other cities and their surface water rates.

II. BUSINESS AGENDA
A. Water. Sewer and Surface Water Rates for 2010
Staff is seeking full Council approval of a resolution adopting a new Public Works Fee Schedule
which will reflect increased water, sewer and surface water rates for 2010.
Water. In order to maintain current levels of service and lessen the impact of future increases to
purchased water, staff is recommending an increase to the minimum water meter charge from $6.00
to $8.00 for residential customers and for commercial/industrial, from $12.00 $300.00 to $20.00
$360.00, (see draft resolution for specific service charges). Water revenue remains flat due to
conservation and no increases to the flat base rate. Increasing the base rate would be the most logical
cost increase implementation, since consumption levels are not changing. Staff is proposing the base
rate increase for this year. Additionally, Cascade Water Alliance rates are projected to increase 7.5%
in 2010 and 5% in 2011.
Sewer. King County will not be increasing their monthly sewer rates but will be increasing the sewer
capacity charge for new connections. Staff is proposing a 15% increase for residential customers from
$11.64 to $13.39 ($1.75 increase) and an increase from $20.37 to $23.43 for commercial/industrial.
The Sewer Enterprise Fund still remains low.
Surface Water. There was no increase to surface water fees in 2009. Staff is proposing increasing
surface water rates from $71.00 to $85.00 for residential parcels. Even with the increase, Tukwila
surface water rates remain low compared with other cities. Capital projects continue to be limited in
order to keep the ending fund balance stable.
In preparation of the November 5 Council Budget and CIP Workshop, the Committee has requested
staff prepare a draft Attachment E for the Sewer Enterprise Fund with potential rate increases that
would be necessary to keep the accumulated totals at approximate balance of $500,000.
UNANIMOUS APPROVAL. FORWARD TO NOVEMEBER 9 COW.

SUBJECT: 2010 Non Represented Wages
ISSUE
2010 Non Represented Wage Schedule analysis based on external comparables and
internal equity.
BACKGROUND
In alignment with Resolution No. 1537, Establishina a Non Represented (NR)
Employees' Compensation Plan, passed December 1, 2005, a wage study has been
conducted for calendar year 2010. The resolution requires that a market analysis be
done every other year for the upcoming year for Non Represented positions. The
current analysis has been conducted based on information in the Association of
Washington Cities 2009 Salary and Benefit Study, rather than going out to individual
cities this year. It was decided that the data in the AWC survey would be utilized in part
due to the economic and staffing constraints facing comparable cities as a result of
furloughs, layoffs, and other budget changes affecting staff. As in the past, a
comparison was done of external comparables (cities) and internal equity (union pay
scales). The Decision Band Methodology (DBM) and regression line analysis have
been completed in determining the "best line of match" and a wage schedule developed
based on the market trend calculation outcome.
The following comparable cities were used for this study:
Comparables
Auburn Bothell Federal Way
Kent Kirkland Redmond
Renton SeaTac
Jim Haggerton, Mayor
The average increase for all top steps of DBM ratings on the Non Represented wage
schedule equals 4.14 A complete 2010 wage schedule was calculated using the
information developed through the linear regression analysis and the percentage
increase provided over the 2009 wage schedule in order to place new and current
employees onto the proper step on the new wage schedule. Individual DBM rating top
step increases vary according to how the trend line analysis compares to the market for
the specific position. Current Non Represented wage increases that relate to
INFORMATIONAL MEMO
Page 2
established DBM ratings with corresponding classifications range from 1.5% to 6.7
Once again, the overall average for the entire wage schedule is 4.14
The Non Represented top step wage information was then compared to the unions' top
step wages for 2010, which shows the union wage increases for 2010 ranging from
3.25% to 4 The market trend analysis and its various percentage increase related to
specific Bands on the wage schedule and confirmed internal equity between all
positions, union and non represented, in the City of Tukwila for 2010.
DISCUSSION
After the City of Tukwila Non Represented wages were approved in 2007 for 2008, it
was noted that many of Tukwila's comparable cities were adjusting the wages for their
non represented management level employees to a greater degree than had occurred
in previous years. One of the primary reasons behind these increases was the difficulty
the cities were having in recruiting and retaining qualified management level employees
The economy was still fairly healthy and the need for strong leadership at the
management level was desired.
Another reason for the non represented wages increasing in other cities was the "fear"
many cities had that they would be unable to recruit qualified police officers, much less
retain them. Many cities were increasing the police officer wages in an effort to attract
more viable candidates to their cities. By taking this action, they needed to raise the
wages for other police officer positions, not just entry level, which then resulted in
management level wages needing to be raised to avoid wage compression problems.
These and other actions by cities resulted in the City of Tukwila Non Represented
employees falling behind the comparable market almost immediately in 2008. These
wage increases in other cities are reflected in the market results for the comparable
cities in Tukwila's 2009 study.
Fairly soon after the wage increases were made in other cities, the economy took a
major hit and with it a shift in how wages and benefits were considered by the cities. It
has necessitated that some of the same cities that raised wages have requested
reductions in wages and /or benefits from their Non Represented employees and, in
some instances, have negotiated similar changes with their unions. (Without their
unions being willing to make reductions, the overall wage structure would be skewed by
just reducing the wages of the Non Represented employees.) One of the results would
be union positions making more than Non Represented management employees; even
without consideration of premium pays and /or overtime. This type of situation can
create a wide variety of problems.
The City of Tukwila has been fortunate that there have not been wage freezes or other
changes in wages or benefits thus far in 2009. In order to maintain external
comparability and internal equity, it is important to keep the Non Represented wages
consistently moving in alignment with the market and union wages. Based on the
current analysis for the Non Represented. a wage increase for 2010 would cost
INFORMATIONAL MEMO
Page 3
approximately $15.700 per month (about $188,400 in 2010), exclusive of payroll taxes.
retirement, etc. The $188.400 is approximately $10,600 more than what was budgeted
for 2010.
RECOMMENDATIONS
The following Non Represented employee wage increase scenarios for 2010 are
presented to the Mayor and Council for consideration:
1. Approve the 2010 Non Represented market trend analysis wage schedule (see
attached draft resolution), which provides for external comparability and internal
equity effective January 1, 2010.
The estimated cost to implement waaes only is $188,400 in 2010. An
additional cost over budget of $10,600.
2. Phase in one -half of the increases based on the 2010 wage schedule on January
1, 2010, and the remaining one -half of the increases on July 1, 2010, for all Non
Represented positions as developed through the market trend analysis. By
phasing in the wage increases, the Non Represented wage schedule is in
alignment with the union wage schedules in mid -year. This method provides
savings to the 2010 budget by spreading out the time in which wage increases
are made in 2010 for the Non Represented employees.
The estimated cost to phase in wage increases with one -half on January
1. 2010 and the second half on July 1. 2010, is $141,100. The estimated
savings over implementina 100% of the market increase on January 1,
2010 is $47.300.
3. Do not give an increase in 2010 to DBM ratings D62 -D72, E, and F
(management and supervisory levels), unless the City's economic condition
begins to stabilize during the year. Often called a "COLA Holiday it would be
important to seriously consider giving the total wage increase to D62 -D72, E, and
F levels sometime later in 2010 or at the beginning of 2011. Waiting until 2011
may require the 2010 wage increases be given and /or additional COLA to keep
up with internal equity compared with union wages for 2010 and 2011.
Provide full wage increases to those at the A, B, C, and D -61 levels (generally
technical and staff support levels) on January 1, 2010, in order to maintain
internal equity for these positions, which have more internal similarity with the
union positions.
The estimated cost to implement waaes for A, B, C and D -61 levels on
January 1, 2010 is $61.400. The estimated 2010 budaet savinas to
implement this option, rather than implementing the waae increase for all
Non Represented employees on January 1, 2010. is approximately
$127,000.
INFORMATIONAL MEMO
Page 4
4. Do not give any wage increases to any of the Non Represented in 2010, and
give the full wage increase, COLA, and /or possible catch up in 2011.
The estimated savings of this choice in 2010 is approximately. $188,400;
however, the choice would create a "catch up" situation in 2011.
Finance has provided the attached tables for each of the above scenarios. These
tables include the TOTAL COST for the increases in wages AND benefits for 2010
(without consideration for an increase sometime during 2010 for the D62 -D72, E, and F
levels under scenario #3).
MAYOR'S RECOMMENDATION
Mayor Haggerton has reviewed the wage scenarios shown above, and there has been
discussion of other possible combinations and options for managing the Non
Represented wage increases for 2010. Though it is his preference for all Non
Represented staff to receive the full wage increase based on external comparables and
internal equity, he recognizes the current budget concerns and broad economic
conditions create a need to look at reducing and /or cutting wages and benefits
Options #3: Mayor Haggerton recommends the Tukwila City Council select
Option #3 above, which provides the full 2010 wage increase positions at DBM
levels A, B, C, and D61 and take a "COLA Holiday" on 2010 wage increase for
DBM levels D62 -D72, E, and F.
The Council is being asked to consider this issue at the October 26, 2009 Committee of
the Whole meeting and subsequent November 2, 2009 Regular meeting.

WHEREAS, the Tukwila City Council has conducted a review of the non represented
employees' compensation system that was originally implemented in January 1998, and
WHEREAS, the City Council recognizes that current economic conditions and forecasts are
a consideration in actions that deal with the compensation of employees; and
WHEREAS, the City Council has made a determination to review the non represented
compensation for even numbered years and provide COLAs in odd numbered years; and
WHEREAS, a compensation study has been conducted and the recommended non-
represented wage schedule and benefit information has been prepared for implementation on
January 1, 2010;
NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF TUKWILA,
WASHINGTON, HEREBY RESOLVES AS FOLLOWS:
Section 1. The following statements have been used for the purpose of adopting the non-
represented employees' wages for 2010 and consideration for future years.
A. The following basic plan elements remain the same:
1. Decision Band Methodology (DBM) for creating classifications.
2. Market analysis using comparable jurisdictions' top -step wages.
3 Data was gathered through use of the "Association of Washington Cities (AWC)
Salary and Benefits Survey" to reduce the impact of contacting cities who have reduced wages
and /or benefits recently in a variety of ways, that do not reflect their actual wage and benefit
schedules and systems.
4. Regression line analysis to establish the Control Point for each DBM rating with a
range of 12.5% and 30% used to establish the steps (Regression Line Analysis provided by Fox
Lawson Associates, LLC, based on Personnel Department acquired market data).
5. Steps below the Control Point (Wage Schedule Top Step) are automatic as
individuals move through the system.
6. Ranges for all bands A11 -F102 of the Decision Band Methodology have been
established based on the outcome of the regression analysis (line of best fit) in creating the 2010
wage schedule.
7. Ranges A11 -D61 wages for 2010 are based on the outcome of the trend line analysis.
Wage increases for these Decision Bands shall be as shown on the attached Salary Schedule,
"Attachment A," pages 1 and 2.
8. Ranges D62 -F102 wages for 2010 will be on a "Cost -of- Living Holiday" (COLA
Holiday), meaning there will be no wage increases on January 1, 2010 for positions in these
Decision Bands. Any consideration for wage increases during 2010 for positions in these
Decision Bands will be based on the ability of the City of Tukwila to pay such increases through
improved budget and economic factors. The Finance Department, working in conjunction with
the Human Resources Department will, from time to time, review the ability of the City of
Tukwila to provide wage increases to employees at these Decision Band levels during 2010.
Page 1 of 6
9 A "market adjustment" is normally applied to a position when the wage survey
results establish a new Control Point, that is 10% or more below the market and internal
compression exists within the career ladder, or where there is difficulty in recruiting and /or
retaining qualified employees. Due to the current budget and economic downturn, no "market
adjustments" will be considered for 2010. In order to ensure the integrity of the Decision Band
Method is maintained, while recognizing a wage gap based on market conditions for a specific
position, the "market adjustments" may be made in future years. When implemented, the
"market adjustment" shall be calculated by taking the difference between the newly- established
Control Point and the market average wage for the position, and applying it on top of the
established salary range for the position. This market adjustment shall be reviewed every two
years from the time it is implemented (if implemented) as part of the salary study and may be
eliminated or changed based on the results of the survey.
B. The non represented salary schedule for 2010 provides an average market trend increase
of 4.14 as a whole, at the top step (Control Point). Individual DBM increases may vary on the
wage schedule based on where they fit in the overall regression analysis that develops the
market trend line. This analysis brings the wage schedule in alignment with external
comparables and internal equity
C. The City shall continue to conduct in -house market analysis of the non represented
compensation system during odd numbered years, using outside assistance on regression line
analysis calculations, as needed. The results of the analysis will be considered for
implementation on January 1 of the following even numbered year
D A COLA increase shall be considered for application each January 1 during odd
numbered years, based on the Seattle- Tacoma Bremerton Consumer Price Index (CPI -W)
Average (first half of 2010 to first half of 2011).
E. The Decision Band method of job evaluation will be used to establish classifications and
the relative internal value and relationship of non represented jobs within the City of Tukwila.
F Merit will continue to be eliminated from the plan at this time and may be reconsidered
as a plan element in subsequent years.
G. Step increases from the minimum to the Control Point for all positions shall be given
annually on the employee's performance review date. There will be no step increases for
employees at or above the Control Point.
Section 2. Non represented employee salary schedule and benefits summary
A. The non represented employee salary schedule, "Attachment A" hereto, shall be
approved, effective January 1, 2010.
B. The non represented employee benefits summary, "Attachment B" hereto, shall be
approved, effective January 1, 2010.
C. The non represented employee longevity pay plan, "Attachment C" hereto, shall be
approved, effective January 1, 2010.

II. BUSINESS AGENDA
A. Resolution Reeardinu 2010 Non represented Employee Salary /Wane Schedule and Benefits
Summary
Staff is seeking full Council approval of a resolution regarding Non Represented Employee Wages
and Benefits for 2010.
City of Tulhwila
Finance and Safety Committee
With the exception of utilizing information extracted from the AWC salary survey (rather than
calling comparable cities individually), the same basic process was utilized, as in previous years, to
calculate market trends and the regression line analysis for calculating wage increases.
Based on current economic conditions staff has presented four non represented employee wage
increase scenarios to the Mayor for consideration. After reviewing the scenarios and considering
external comparability and internal equity, Mayor Haggerton recommends:
A 4.41% increase to the non represented wages for position band ranges All through D61,
effective January 1, 2010.
A COLA Holiday (no wage increases) for position band ranges D62 through F, effective
January 1, 2010.
Committee members had a lengthy discussion regarding the Mayor's recommendation for partial
increases and a COLA Holiday as described above as well as other possible options. Some options
discussed were:
Temporary freeze of longevity pay, dependent on the total value of savings, acknowledging
this scenario would be shared more equally across the entire non represented employee
group.
Request for a more detailed recommendation from the Mayor regarding the specific
funding cuts Council is being asked to consider regarding non represented employee
wages.
No non represented employee wage increases for 2010.
Wage increases given to all non represented employees regardless of position band range.
In regards to the second bulleted item above, Rhonda Berry responded that the Administration is
cognizant of both the complex nature of discussions involving employee benefits and wages, and the
Finance Safety Committee Minutes October 20. 2009 Paae 2
general Council desire to be responsive and diplomatic in the process of making decisions that directly
affect City employees. It is with these considerations that a specific amount of funding has not been
targeted for reduction. At this time, the intent is to save funding and reduce expenditures whenever or
wherever possible.
The Committee did not reach unanimous approval for a recommended action in regards to this item.
The following items were agreed to:
This item will move forward to full Council for discussion with the Mayor's recommendations,
after the November 3 General Election (to the November 9 COW).
Non represented City employees should be asked to provide input on potential wage options.
FORWARD TO NOVEMBER 9 COW FOR DISCUSSION.
B. Contract Renewal for 2010 M.J. Durkan for Lobbvine Services
This is a professional services renewal contract with M. J. Durkan, Inc. for local lobbying service.
This will be a one -year contract with terms, scope of services and fees remaining the same as last
year.
The Committee recognizes the importance of maintaining relations with the State especially during these
challenging economic times. UNANIMOUS APPROVAL. FORWARD TO OCTOBER 26 COW
FOR DISCUSSION.
C. Authorization to Transfer Funds for Additional 2009 Budget Reductions
Staff is seeking full Council authorization to transfer funds from various City Department budgets in
the amount of $392,416 to Dept 20 for additional budget reductions.
Council has previously approved funds transfers including a City -wide 3% budget reduction and a
transfer from the 2009 Equipment Replacement fund. This third transfer comes from selected
departments based on identified cost savings opportunities.
Committee Chair Linder requested clarification in the Fund Transfer line item for Public Works
Emergency Services. This line item reflects a cost savings as a result of the vacant CERT position.
UNANIMOUS APPROVAL. FORWARD TO OCTOBER 26 COW FOR DISCUSSION.
D. Budget Process and Deadlines
Based on Council request, staff has provided a detailed, dated list of major steps involved and required in the
biennial budget process as outlined in the informational memo included in the Committee agenda packet.
Kimberly Matej is currently working with Shawn Hunstock to incorporate this information into a table that
can be utilized and updated annually.
The Committee noted that most of the budget process is dictated and required by law. The majority of
preparation taking place prior to legally mandated deadlines is at City discretion.
Committee Members expressed confidence that this detailed process will allow input on budget items in a
timely and efficient manner. The documentation incorporates this Council policy -level review at various
times throughout the year, including an early Spring (May) review of sales receipts and potential budget
modifications.
The information and timeline Council will be discussing on October 26 is based on budgetary requirements
without implementation of Initiative 1033. If I -1033 passes, the City will have ample time to react
strategically. However, Committee Chair Linder requested that Shawn also provide the initial three or four
steps that will be required of the City in the event of I -1033 passage. For example, passage will require
setting the property tax level to the highest possible limit. FORWARD TO OCTOBER 26 COW FOR
DISCUSSION.

INFORMATIONAL MEMORANDUM
TO: Finance and Safety Committee
FROM Mayor Haggerton
DATE: October 27, 2009
SUBJECT: Reappointment of Municipal Court Judge
Establishment of Judge's Salary
The Council is being asked to consider this item at the November 9, 2009 Committee of the
Whole meeting and subsequent November 16, 2009 Regular Meeting
The term of office for Judge Walden will expire at the end of this year, and it is my intent to
appoint her for an additional 4 -year term commencing January 1, 2010. The Tukwila Municipal
Code (TMC) 2.68.025 and the Revised Code of Washington (RCW) stipulate that the judge's
salary shall be fixed by ordinance.
Judge Walden was first appointed in 2003 to fill the unexpired term of Judge Peter Lukevich.
Upon the expiration of that term, she was reappointed and has served Tukwila continuously
since March of that year.
Judge Walden has served admirably since her appointment. Under her direction the Tukwila
Municipal Court has become a more professionally run organization, and several innovative
programs have been undertaken, including the Jail Alternatives Program, a more robust
Probations Division, and several cost cutting and efficiency producing procedures.
Jim Haggerton, Mayor
An ordinance fixing the judge's salary is attached for your review. We propose to pay the judge
the same hourly rate that she has received since January 1, 2008, which is $67.00 per hour at
30 hours per week. In lieu of a pay increase I would request that, effective January 1, 2010, the
judge be granted the same paid holidays as are received by the Non Represented employees I
estimate that granting such holidays will cost approximately $6500 in 2010

II. BUSINESS AGENDA
A. Above Ground Fuel Tank Installations Related to Howard Hanson
Zoning in the Tukwila Urban Center does allow for the installation of above ground fuel tanks. However,
the Tukwila Municipal Code provides an exception to this code when the tank is permitted by the Fire
Department and properly screened from public view. Usually these permits allowing for above ground
installation come forward to Committee as information only item prior to the Fire Department issuing the
permit.
Staff is seeking Committee approval to issue permits for the temporary installation of standby power
systems with supplemental fuel tanks until issues with the Howard Hanson Dam (or appropriate flood
preparations) are resolved without first coming to Committee with an information only item. These types
of systems are being considered for installation by businesses who desire to ensure the continuity of
operations at such a time that flood damage affects the Tukwila community.
Staff will send a monthly report to Finance Safety Committee members regarding permits that have
been issued. All tanks will comply with necessary environmental and contaminant standards.
COMMITTEE CONCURS. INFORMATION ONLY.
B. Reannointment of Municinal Court Judge and an Ordinance Establishing the Judge's Salary
Mayor Haggerton is seeking full Council approval to re- appoint Judge Kimberly Walden to the Tukwila
Municipal Court, effective January 1, 2010, through December 31, 2013. Additionally, he is seeking full
Council approval of an ordinance which establishes the judge's salary as required by Tukwila Municipal
Code and the Revised Code of Washington.
There is no recommendation to increase the hourly flat rate compensation for the Tukwila Municipal
Court Judge, which is currently $67.00 per hour (in effect since January 1, 2008), for approximately 30
hours per week. However, Mayor Haggerton recommends entitling the position the same paid holidays as
