ISSUE Shall the City Council adopt an amendment to the scope of work, the contract time and the contract amount for services provided by Sound Inspections Investigative Engineers, LLC. BACKGROUND Westfield is determined to complete the permit process and the construction of the Mall addition including all 90- plus tenant improvements by July of 2008. The expansion of the Westfield Mall has placed a substantial increase in the work load for plan reviewers, inspectors and the permit center staff In order to accommodate Westfield's ambitious schedule and maintain the level of service to all other Tukwila citizens and businesses, we have contracted for inspection services with Sound Inspections Investigative Engineers, LLC. (S .I&. t h The current contract was approved by Mayor Mullet for the amount, not to exceed $25,000. The inspection services contract is scheduled to terminate June 30, 2008 or upon reaching the payment threshold of $25,000. DISCUSSION The cost of the consultant's inspection services does not impact the general fund. The permit fees cover the cost of inspections by our consultant. In addition, Westfield has agreed to pay for all overtime inspections and has agreed to pay for overtime plan review services. New developments have changed the scope of our original contract. First, Westfield has asked for expedited plan review for specific tenant improvements on an overtime basis. Secondly, Westfield has extended the original opening date for the mall expansion to the end of July 2008. The result of these requests calls for a change in the maximum dollar amount of the contract, a change in the scope of work to include plan review services and the extension of the termination date to July 31, 2008. 1 RECOMMENDATION Approve the amended contract which includes plan review services, a maximum payment threshold of $65,000 and the extended termination date of July 31, 2008. Forward to February 25, 2008 C.O.W. with recommendation for approval Attachments: Exhibit I, Current Contract. Exhibit II, Proposed Amended Contract. 2 EXHIBIT I.

PRESENTATIONS No presentations. II. BUSINESS AGENDA A. Tukwila Community Schools Collaboration Reporting Council allocated $100,000 in the 2008 City Budget for Tukwila Community Schools Collaboration (TCSC). In the past, when TCSC has received line item budget funds from the City, they have not been required to enter into a contract or submit performance and/or activity reports and they have not taken part in a City established competitive grant process. In order to improve accountability as well as formalize the fund disbursement process, staff would like to discuss and clarify reporting procedures and requirements for TCSC. Clarifying this process will also be useful in documenting the City's support of the TCSC program and in determining future City -based funding for the program. Staff distributed copies of existing TCSC reports which are given to the Tukwila School Board. The Tukwila Community Schools Collaboration has not historically been reporting outcome /performance measures. Since the program has not been able to produce outcomes, they have experienced some difficulty in securing outside grant funds. However, it is important to remember that this struggle is not unusual and is often experienced by new, unique growing programs such as this. After a lengthy discussion, the Committee was in agreement that in addition to the numbers of children attending the program, they wanted to explore other things that could be measured. Staff offered suggestions for other measurements to consider, including: WASL scores, attendance records and participant mobility. Committee members also felt that detailed information regarding TCSC staff responsibilities at each school location would be useful in the report. As a result of this discussion, Evie Boykan and Bruce Fletcher will work together to create a draft contract between the City and TCSC for allocated funding. The contract will incorporate a scope of work and build in performance objectives which will provide a basic outline of the City's expectations. Additionally, staff will asked Deborah Salas of TCSC to attend an upcoming Committee meeting discuss the type of data TCSC is looking at collecting as well as the barriers that they are experiencing in the process of gathering that information as they work within the restrictions of the School District data. This agenda item will return to Committee for further discussion and recommendation prior to going to full Council. INFORMATION ONLY. RETURN TO COMMITTEE FOR DISCUSSION. B. Amend Conditions of the Contract for Inspection and Plan Services for the Westfield Mall Expansion Staff is seeking full Council approval to replace the existing contract with Sound Inspections and Investigative Engineers, LLC. for inspection and plan services for the Westfield Mall Expansion. The replacement contract will be identical to the existing contract, with the exception of two items: extension of the termination date to July 21, 2008 and an increase in the contract amount not to exceed $65,000. Staff explained that these changes are being made due to Westfield's need to extend their opening date to July 25. The current contract is reaching its threshold and will not be able to serve the City's needs as Community Affairs Parks Committee Minutes February 11. 2008 Paae 2 required by the Mall's expansion. Jack Pace stated that the revenue for this contract is being generated by Westfield and that it is not impacting the City's General Fund. The associated permit fees cover the cost of inspections. Utilizing the services of Sound Inspections and Investigative Engineers, LLC. provides the City with overflow inspection assistance allowing staff to continue conducting residential and other small business. Rhonda Berry stated that the nullification of the existing contract needs to be stated in the new contract. UNANIMOUS APPROVAL. FORWARD TO FEBRUARY 25 COW FOR DISCUSSION. C. Tukwila Urban Center Plan FTB Contract for Services Staff is requesting full Council approval of a contract for services with Freedman, Tung Bottomley (FTB) in the amount of $81,540.00 for completion of the Tukwila Urban Center (TUC) Plan. Staff provided a brief background of the redevelopment strategy for the urban center including the mall expansion, commuter rail station and other land use and transportation changes. The City is seeking to meet the County requirements for an urban center including the housing component and employer /job requirements. The City previously hired Freedman, Tung Bottomley as consultants for the Tukwila Urban Center Plan. Several meetings and work sessions (with Council and public) were held to select a preferred vision for the urban center. This resulted in an internal form -based plan. Staff is now ready for FTB to return to provide contract services that will result in a public review draft for the TUC. This draft will lead us to development of a system for both public and private improvements. The consultant's scope of work was included in the CAP packet; the full contract will be included in the February 25 COW. UNANIMOUS APPROVAL. FORWARD TO FEBRUARY 25 COW FOR DISCUSSION. D. Student Representative to the Tukwila City Council After gauging Council interest and securing consensus, Councilmember Verna Griffin submitted information to the CAP Committee regarding a youth representative to the Tukwila City Council. Verna shared a draft document outlining the requirements and expectations for a youth representative. This document was formulated from documents from other organizations that implement similar programs. It also parallels requirements set by the Tukwila School Board for their student representatives. After an extensive discussion, the Committee offered several suggestions and asked additional questions including but not limited to: City Attorney review of the document and requirements. Research surrounding cities programs. Consider the youth working for matching funds when travel is possible Provide specific information regarding attendance requirements. Consider making the program length shorter for more youth participation. Consider opportunities for the youth that are not chosen to participate. Explore job shadowing opportunities versus a youth representative position. Open program to all schools as well as home schooled youth. CONDUCT MORE RESEARCH. RETURN TO COMMITTEE FOR FURTHER DISCUSSION. M.
