SUBJECT: Interlocal Agreement for 2010 Minor Home Repair Program
ISSUE
We are expecting a formal award letter for $100,000 to fund the 2010 Tukwila, SeaTac, Des
Moines, and Covington Minor Home Repair program. The addition of Covington requires a new
agreement between the cities. The program serves income eligible homeowners with minor
home repair including but not limited to carpentry, plumbing, electrical, HVAC systems,
preventative maintenance, etc.
BACKGROUND
The Human Services Office in Tukwila has served as the fiscal agent for a contract with King
County since 2005. Funds come from a competitive application to King County for federal
Community Development Block Grants. Each City manages its own program with funds that
are distributed. For 2010 the fund split will be $25,000 for Tukwila and Des Moines, $26,000 for
SeaTac, and $24,000 for Covington. In 2009 we provided over 30 jobs to eligible homeowners.
DISCUSSION
The attached Interlocal Agreement outlines the responsibilities and duties of each participating
city.
RECOMMENDATION
Due to the number of Council meetings left in 2009, the Council is being asked for forward this
directly to the December 7, 2009 Regular Meeting for consideration and approval.

FROM: Bruce Fletcher, Director of Parks and Recreation

SUBJECT: Fee Increase for 2010

2010 Parks and Recreation Department Fee Increase.
Jim Haggerton, Mayor
ISSUE
A fee increase will be implemented on January 1, 2010 for the Parks and Recreation Department.
BACKGROUND
The Parks and Recreation Department provides many recreational services for our residents and
visitors of Tukwila. Our offerings and facilities are some of the best in the region and to continue
our services, it is necessary to increase our fee structure.
Like many cities across America, we find ourselves in the middle of a down economy that has
produced Tess than adequate revenues. During our budget reduction process, we have cut
programs and reduced service without any increases. With the forecast of continued budget
challenges, I have directed my staff to increase our fees department wide. While we do not have a
maintenance fee mechanism in place to pay for parks, open space or trails, we do have the
opportunity to increase our fees for recreational services.
Tukwila residents enjoy one of the best Parks and Recreation systems in the State and traditionally
our fee structure has been kept affordable for community use. Our programs and facilities are a
true benefit that adds to the quality of the Tukwila lifestyle but we need to raise our prices to lower
the subsidy margin.
Please see the attached fee increase that will be implemented on January 1, 2010. The Director of
Parks and Recreation and his staff will be available to answer any questions at the November 23
Community Affairs and Parks Committee meeting. The fee increase will generate a projected
$154,285 annually. This increase will bring the total annual Parks and Recreation fee revenues to
$2,950,785.
The city's Parks and Recreation fees and charges set by the Parks and Recreation Director and are
subject to periodic review by the Parks Commission and the City Council's Community Affairs and
Parks Committee (Resolution #1536).
