Re: 4 of July Fire Works Permit.
Please find the attached memo in regard to the application for the public fire works
display this year at the Starfire baseball complex in conjunction with the City's Family
Fun at the Fort 4 of July event.
This event has been very successful in past years, and we have not had any fireworks
related incident as a result of this show. We have had issues in the past with visitors
using fireworks within the park, but have since installed signage notifing the visitors
upon entry into the park that fireworks are illegal within Tukwila. This made a significant
impact on last years incidents of fireworks being discharged within the park.
1 have not received confirmation from Assistant Chief Peden, Fire Marshal for the City
of Renton. In years past they have had no concerns with the permitted fire works
display, however they do have a new Fire Chief this year. I will pass on this confirmation
when I receive word from Renton Fire.
If any of the Council Members have further questions, please have them contact me at
206 575 -4404 or e -mail at dtomaso @ci.tukwila.wa.us.

Memorandum

To: Chief Olivas
From: B/C Tomaso
Re: Public Fire Works Display Permit
I have reviewed the permit application information provided by Mr. Tom Whitacre, who
has applied for the permit for a public fireworks display at the Starfire Sports Complex,
14600 Starfire Way. Mr. Whitacre is a licensed Pyrotechnic Operator with the State of
Washington and with the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Fire Arms. The State
Department of licensing also licenses Mr. Whitacre to transport fire works.
The display will be held in conjunction with the City's planned event on the 4 of July,
"Family Fun at the Fort", being organized by the Park and Recreation Department. This
will be a 25 to 30 minute show starting at approximately 2200 hours. The fireworks will
be transported to the site in the AM of July 4 and will be under the required supervision
until they are discharged. The mortar tubes and other equipment will be brought to the
location on July 2 3rd
The application was reviewed to WAC 212 -17 and accepted industry standards, and I
find everything is within these guidelines
I do have some concerns this year regarding the railroad right of way, baseball fields
and the limited access this allows. In addition, a portion of the fall out area includes a
portion of a commercial property within the City of Renton. I have contacted Renton Fire
Officials and have not received a response at the time of this memo. Last year the
Renton Fire Marshal approved our plan, which is the same as in previous years.
Crowd control can be a potential issue, as the crowd that assembles to watch the fire
works show has increased each and every year. Last year the traffic leaving the site

was managed with the available Tukwila Police on site and available patrol units. To
mitigate these issues I believe the following measures should be done:
Stage two fire apparatus at the site: one apparatus on each side of the Railroad right of
way. Apparatus shall be out of service during the display and for 30 minutes following
display.
Have Tukwila Police provide crowd control during the Public display. A minimum of 4
officers will be required. Provide traffic control to the Fort Dent Way and Interurban Ave
intersection to expedite traffic flow. (2 additional Tukwila Police shall be available to
respond to the site if requested.)
Comply with Fire Works Permit Conditions attached.

I. PRESENTATIONS
No presentations.
II. BUSINESS AGENDA
A. Surplus of City owned property on South 180
Staff is requesting that two properties currently owned by the City located at 7210 South 180
and 7220 South 180 be declared surplus. These properties are not being utilized by the City and
their questionable conditions make it cost prohibitive for the City to make necessary repairs for
such use. Staff recommends these properties be put up for public bid at the minimum cost for
both parcels whose common value has been appraised at $480,000. Additional information was
requested if it could be available for discussion at the Committee of the Whole meeting.
UNANIMOUS APPROVAL. FORWARD TO JUNE 11 COW.
B. Permit Application for Fireworks Display at Starfire Sports Complex
Staff is recommending that the Fireworks Permit Application submitted by Mr. Tom Whitacre
for the fireworks display at Family 4 at the Fort be approved. Mr. Whitacre has provided the
fireworks display for the City's annual celebration for the past several years without incident.
Staff reported that they will be working with the City of Renton's Fire Department since a
4\ portion of the commercial property identified for the fireworks fall out area is within Renton city
limits. Additionally, staff has identified and addressed potential issues that could occur and have
developed plans in response to those. One issue of particular note is the timing of the fireworks
show in relation to the train schedule, which has been coordinated with the railroad.
UNANIMOUS APPROVAL: FORWARD TO JUNE 11 COW.
C. Adoption of the 2006 International Fire Code
Staff detailed the recommended changes to the code, many of which were housekeeping.
Councilmember Robertson requested additional information concerning the difference in safety of
sprinldered homes compared to non sprinklered. UNANIMOUS APPROVAL. FORWARD TO
JUNE 11 COW.
D. Update of Fire Service Consolidation Study
Chief Olivas explained that the City of SeaTac is interested in a study to determine the feasibility
of our Fire Departments consolidating. The SeaTac Council will discuss this matter at its June
12 City Council meeting and probably give staff the green light to move forward. If that
happens, Tukwila will be asked to share the costs associated with such a study. At this time a
