RE: Human Services Advisory Board
Date: October 2, 2006
Two positions on the Human Services Advisory Board have terms that expired in April of
this year. Sisay Desalegn (Position #3, Citizen Rep) chose not to be reappointed, leaving
a vacancy. Gary Vanderhoff (Position #7, Religious Community Rep) chose to continue
serving on the Board. In addition, Debby Englund (Position #2, School District Rep)
resigned her position this past August.
I am pleased to forward to you the application of Mr. Ken Heikkila, who is the Director
of Student Services for the Tukwila School District, and has submitted his application for
the vacancy in Position #2. His term will expire on 4/30/2007 (filling the unexpired term
of Debby Englund).
At this time I would also like to formally reappoint Gary Vanderhoff to position #7,
which will expire on 4/30/2008.
Unless I hear otherwise from the Council prior to October 10, I will invite Mr. Heikkila
and Mr. Vanderhoff to the Regular City Council meeting on October 16, 2006, to have
these appointments confirmed. Thank you.

Project Completion and Acceptance
ISSUE
Accept contract as complete and authorize release of retainage bond.
BACKGROUND
The Notice to Proceed for Contract No. 05 -073 with Frank Coluccio Construction Company
of Seattle, Washington, was issued June 13, 2005, for the construction of Strander Boulevard
Storm Drainage and Pump Station #17 (Project No. 86- DR01).
This contract was substantially completed on June 15, 2005, and entirely completed on July
29, 2006.
One change order was issued during construction, in the amount of $26,650.00, for the
resolution of major utility conflicts with the new storm drain pipe into the new Pump Station
#17 wet well (in entrance to Bicentennial Park). High pressure natural gas and Olympic
Pipeline jet fuel lines and PSE power encased in concrete were a major obstacle requiring
numerous redesigns, night work and field fitting.
The underruns on this project were primarily due to: a reduced amount of 36 -inch diameter
storm drain pipe, fewer catch basins and manholes, and no unsuitable foundation soils were
encountered in the storm drain pipe trench. The contract costs are summarized as follows:
Contract Award Amount 1,566,424.00
Change Order No. 1 26,650.00
Underruns (45,888.96)
Sales Tax (N /A Rule 171) 0.00
Total Amount Paid (incl. retainage bond) 1,547,185.04

It is recommended that this contract be forwarded to the Tukwila City Council on the consent

RE: Wireless Communication Chapter
Response to Council COW Items
DATE: October 11, 2006
This memo is intended to address the items that were raised at the September 11, 2006
COW meeting regarding the proposed wireless telecommunications chapter.
Item 1: Council directed staff to explore limiting the number of antennas that are
permitted on a wireless communications tower.
Staff's Response
Staff has not included any code language to address this item. The proposed ordinance
does not provide a quantitative limit on the number of antennas permitted on an existing
wireless communications tower. However, due to separation requirements, the number of
antennas on an existing tower would be limited. Typically wireless providers must
maintain a separation of ten feet between their antennas and a competitor's antennas.
Thus, this separation need would limit the number of providers available to locate on a
wireless tower.
Item 2: Council wanted to ensure that the exemption section of the code addresses dishes
used to receive and send internet signals for both residents and businesses.
Staffs Response
An exemption for dishes used to receive or send internet signals is consistent with the
intent of the code. Staff has added the following language under the exemption section of
the code.
2. An antenna that is designed to receive or send direct broadcast satellite service
and/or broadband signals, or other means for providing internet service including
direct -to -home satellite services, and that is one meter or less in diameter or
diagonal measurement and when the antenna is attached to the residence or
business that is utilizing the service.

Staff reviewed some of the current dishes being used by restaurants and convenient stores
and they are less than one meter in diameter.
Item 3: Council asked for some clarification on the matrix and location requirements for
wireless communication facilities.
Staff's Response
The following language has been included in the proposed ordinance.
2. The priorities for the type of wireless communication facility shall be
based upon the matrix provided in this chapter (Table A). Desirable
facilities are located on the top of the matrix and least desirable facilities
are located at the bottom of the matrix. Any application for a wireless
communication facility must work down from the above matrix. For
example, an applicant must demonstrate by engineering evidence that
using a transmission tower collocation is not possible before moving to a
utility pole collocation, and so forth, with the last possible siting option
being a new tower or waiver request.
Item 4: Encouraging wireless providers to use city owned properties in order to
generate revenue.
Staff's Response
Planning Staff has added the following language to the "purpose" section of the
proposed chapter.
7. Allow wireless communication companies to use City property (i.e. City
Hall, Community Center, parks, etc) for the placement of wireless facilities,
where consistent with other public needs, as a means to generate revenue for the
City;
The language does not mandate that wireless providers attempt to locate facilities on City
owned facilities and property.
Many other government entities have found it profitable to rent public property in order
to generate revenue. Staff would suggest that this matter be explored in the future.
Further conversations would need to take place with Public Works and Parks.
Item 5: Height of Ham Radios
Staff's Response
The exemption section of the proposed chapter provides standards for the construction of
HAM radio facilities. HAM radio antennas are exempt if they meet certain development
2
standards. One of the development standards requires that the antennas be placed at least
three quarters of its height from any property lines.
There was some concern that the long narrow lots in Tukwila would not be permitted to
have HAM radio antennas due to this setback provision. In the future if such a scenario
were to occur an applicant could seek a variance.
There was also some concern regarding height of proposed HAM towers and FAA
requirements. A proposed HAM tower cannot exceed the maximum height of the
applicable zoning. Thus, within the LDR zone the maximum height of the HAM tower
would be 30 feet.
Conclusion
The minor changes outlined in this chapter have been included in the proposed ordinance.
No action needs to occur with regards to these changes if Council is satisfied with the
language.

AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF TUKWILA,
WASHINGTON, AMENDING TUKWILA'S ZONING CODE TO REGULATE
THE SITING OF WIRELESS COMMUNICATION FACILITIES; PROVIDING
FOR SEVERABILITY; AND ESTABLISHING AN EFFECTIVE DATE
WHEREAS, the City has received or expects to receive requests to site wireless communica-
tion facilities within its boundaries; and
WHEREAS, the City recognizes that Congress, pursuant to the Telecommunications Act of
1996, has imposed requirements that local governments not unreasonably discriminate among
providers of functionally equivalent personal wireless services, or act in a manner that prohibits or
has the effect of prohibiting the provision of personal wireless services, while at the same time
preserving traditional State and local authority over the placement, construction, and modification
of wireless communication facilities; and
WHEREAS, the City finds that the provisioning of personal wireless services to the residents
of the City of Tukwila is in the public interest, and that permitting the placement, construction and
modification of wireless communication facilities within its boundaries is necessary to support such
service; and

modification of wireless communication facilities within its boundaries; and
WHEREAS, the City also finds that placement, construction and modification of wireless
communication facilities could adversely affect the character, aesthetics, property values, historic
significance, and environmental quality of the community; and
WHEREAS, the City also finds that construction/installation of new towers to support
antenna installations is likely to have a more significant adverse impact upon the character,
aesthetics, property values, historic significance, and environmental quality of the community than
use of existing towers, structures, and power poles and use of alternative technology for such
installations; and
WHEREAS, the City has undertaken a review of its Zoning Code and determined that
existing Zoning Code provisions are technologically dated, unclear or non-existent regarding
wireless communication facilities, and do not adequately implement the goals, objectives and
policies of the adopted Comprehensive Plan or adequately protect the public health, safety and
welfare; and
WHEREAS, it is the City's intent to protect and promote the public health, safety and
welfare by adding new regulations to the City's Zoning Code regarding the placement,
construction and modification of wireless communication facilities within its boundaries; and

1. Establish clear and nondiscriminatory local regulations concerning wireless
telecommunications providers and services that are consistent with Federal and State laws and
regulations pertaining to telecommunications providers;
2. Protect residential areas and land uses from potential adverse impacts that
wireless communication facilities might create, including but not limited to impacts on aesthetics,
environmentally sensitive areas, historically significant locations, flight corridors, and health and
safety of persons and property;
3. Encourage providers of wireless communication facilities to locate them, to the
extent possible, in areas where the adverse impact on the community is minimal;
4. Encourage the location of wireless communication facilities in nonresidential
areas and allow wireless communication facilities in residential areas only when necessary, to meet
functional requirements of the telecommunications industry;
5. Minimize the total number of wireless communication facilities in residential
areas;
6. Require cooperation between competitors and, as a primary option, joint use of
new and existing towers, tower sites and suitable structures to the greatest extent possible, in
order to reduce cumulative negative impact upon the City;
7. Allow wireless communication companies to use City property (i.e. City Hall,
Community Center, parks, etc.) for the placement of wireless facilities, where consistent with
other public needs, as a means to generate revenue for the City;
8. Ensure wireless communication facilities are configured in a way that minimizes
the adverse visual impact of the wireless.communication facilities, as viewed from different vantage
points, through careful design, landscape screening, minimal impact siting options and
camouflaging techniques, and through assessment of technology, current location options, siting,
future available locations, innovative siting techniques and siting possibilities beyond the
jurisdictional boundaries of the City;
9. Enhance the ability of the providers of telecommunications services to provide
such services to the community quickly, effectively and efficiently;
10. Provide for the removal of wireless communication facilities that are abandoned
or no longer inspected for safety concerns and Building Code compliance, and provide a
mechanism for the City to cause these abandoned wireless communication facilities to be removed,
to protect the citizens from imminent harm and danger;
11. Avoid potential damage to adjacent properties from tower failure, through
engineering, careful siting, and maintenance of wireless communication facilities; and
12. Provide a means for public input on major wireless communications facility
placement, construction and modification.
B. In furtherance of these objectives, the City shall give due consideration to the
Comprehensive Land Use Plan, zoning code, existing land uses, and environmentally sensitive
areas in approving sites for the location of communication towers and antennas.
C. These objectives were developed to protect the public health, safety and welfare, to
protect property values, and to minimize visual impact, while furthering the development of
enhanced telecommunication services in the City. These objectives were designed to comply with
the Telecommunications Act of 1996. The provisions of this Chapter are not intended to and shall
not be interpreted to prohibit or to have the effect of prohibiting personal wireless services. This
Chapter shall not be applied in such a manner as to unreasonably discriminate between providers
of functionally equivalent personal wireless services.

wireless ord doc, 10/11/06 Page 6 of 26
2. Alternates No existing tower or structure, or other feasible site or other
alternative technologies not requiring a new tower in the City, can accommodate the applicant's
proposed wireless communication facility; and
3. Least intrusive: The proposed new wireless communication facility is designed
and located to remove the significant gap in service in a manner that is, in consideration of the
values, objectives and regulations set forth in this chapter, TMC Title 18, and the Comprehensive
Land Use Plan, the least intrusive upon the surrounding area.
B. The Planning Commission shall be the reviewing body on the application to construct a
new tower, and shall determine whether or not each of the above requirements are met.
Examples of evidence demonstrating the foregoing requirements include, but are not limited to,
the following:
1. That the tower height is the minimum necessary in order to achieve the coverage
objective;
2. That no existing towers or structures or alternative sites are located within the
geographic area required to meet the applicant's engineering requirements to meet its coverage
objective (regardless of the geographical boundaries of the City);
3. That existing towers or structures are not of a sufficient height or could not
feasibly be extended to a sufficient height to meet the applicant's engineering requirements to meet
its coverage objective;
4. That existing structures or towers do not have sufficient structural strength to
support the applicant's proposed antenna and ancillary facilities;
5. That the applicant's proposed antenna would cause electromagnetic interference
with the antenna on the existing towers or structures, or the antenna on the existing structures
would cause interference with the applicant's proposed antenna;
6. That the fees, costs or contractual provisions required by the owner or operator in
order to share an existing tower or structure, or to locate at an alternative site, or to adapt an
existing tower or structure or alternative site for sharing, are unreasonable. Costs exceeding new
tower construction by 25% are presumed to be unreasonable;
7. That an alternative technology that does not require the use of a new tower, such
as a cable microcell network using multiple low-powered transmitters /receivers attached to a
wireline system, is unsuitable. Costs of alternative technology that exceed new tower or antenna
development shall not be presumed to render the technology unsuitable; and
8. The applicant demonstrates other limiting factors that render existing towers and
structures or other sites or alternative technologies unsuitable.
All engineering and technological evidence must be provided and certified by a
registered and qualified professional engineer and clearly demonstrate the evidence required.
C. The Planning Commission, after holding a public hearing, shall either approve, approve
with conditions, or deny the application, or remand the application back to staff for further
investigation in a manner consistent with the Planning Commission order.
18.58.070 General Requirements.
The following shall apply to all wireless communication facilities regardless of the type of
facility:
1. Noise Any facility that requires a generator or other device which will create
noise must demonstrate compliance with TMC Chapter 8.22, "Noise A noise report, prepared
by an acoustical engineer, shall be submitted with any application to construct and operate a
wireless communication facility that will have a generator or similar device. The City may require
that the report be reviewed by a third party expert at the expense of the applicant.
2. Business license requirement Any person, corporation or entity that operates a
wireless communication facility within the City shall have a valid business license issued annually
by the City. Any person, corporation or other business entity which owns a tower also is required
to obtain a business license on an annual basis.
3. Signage Only safety signs or those mandated by other government entities may
be located on wireless communication facilities. No other types of signs are permitted on wireless
communication facilities.
4. Parking Any application must demonstrate that there is sufficient space for
temporary parking for regular maintenance of the proposed facility.
5. Finish— A tower shall either maintain a galvanized steel finish or, subject to any
applicable standards of the FAA or FCC, be painted a neutral color so as to reduce its visual
obtrusiveness.
wireless ord.doc, 10/11 /06 Page 7of26
6. Design The design of all buildings and ancillary structures shall use materials,
colors, textures, screening and landscaping that will blend the tower facilities with the natural
setting and built environment.
7. Color All antennas and ancillary facilities located on buildings or structures
other than towers shall be of a neutral color that is identical to or closely compatible with the color
of the supporting structure so as to make the antenna and ancillary facilities as visually unobtrusive
as possible.
8. Lighting— Towers shall not be artificially lighted unless required by the FAA, FCC
or other applicable authority. If lighting is required, the reviewing authority shall review the
lighting alternatives and approve the design that would cause the least disturbance to the
surrounding areas. No strobe lighting of any type is permitted on any tower.
9. Advertising— No advertising is permitted at wireless communication facility sites
or on any ancillary structure or facilities equipment compound.
10. Equipment Enclosure— Each applicant shall be limited to an equipment enclosure
of 360 square feet at each site. However, this restriction shall not apply to enclosures located
within an existing commercial, industrial, residential or institutional building.
18.58.080 Electrical Transmission Tower Co- Location Specific Development Standards.
The following requirements shall apply:
1. Height There is no height requirement for antennas that are located on
electrical transmission towers.
2. Antenna aesthetics— There are no restrictions on the type of antennas located on
the electrical transmission tower. The antennas must be painted to match the color of the
electrical transmission tower.
3. Antenna intensity There is no limit on the number of antennas that may be
located on an electrical transmission tower structure.
4. Feed lines and coaxial cables shall be attached to one of the legs of the
electrical transmission tower. The feed lines and cables must be painted to match the color of the
electrical transmission tower.
5. Cabinet equipment Cabinet equipment shall be located directly under the
electrical transmission tower where the antennas are located or a concealed location. The wireless
communication equipment compound shall be fenced; the fence shall have a minimum height of 6
feet and a maximum height of 8 feet. The fence shall include slats, wood panels, or other materials
to screen the equipment from view. Barbed wire may be used in a utility right -of -way that is not
zoned residential.
6. Setbacks Since the facility will be located on an existing electrical transmission
tower, setbacks shall not apply.
18.58.090 Adding Antennas to Existing WCF Tower Specific Development Standards.
The following requirements shall apply:
1. Height The height must not exceed what was approved under the original

18.58.100 Concealed Building Mounted Development Requirements.
The following requirements shall apply:
1. Height The proposed facility must meet the height requirement of the
applicable zoning category. The antennas can qualify under TMC Section 18.50.080, "Rooftop
Appurtenances if the antennas are located in a church spire, chimney or fake chimney, elevator
tower, mechanical equipment room, or other similar rooftop appurtenances usually required to be
placed on a roof and not intended for human occupancy. Stand -alone antennas shall not qualify as
rooftop appurtenances.
2. Antennas aesthetics The antennas must be concealed from view by blending
with the architectural style of the building. This could include steeple -like structures and parapet
walls. The screening must be made out of the same material and be the same color as the
building. Antennas shall be painted to match the color scheme of the building(s).
3. Feed lines and coaxial cables— Feed lines and cables should be located below the
parapet of the rooftop.
4. Cabinet equipment If cabinet equipment cannot be located within the building
where the wireless communication facilities will be located, then the City's first preference is to
locate the equipment on the rooftop of the building. If the equipment can be screened by placing
the equipment below the parapet walls, no additional screening is required. If screening is
required, then the proposed screening must be consistent with the existing building in terms of
color, style, architectural style and material. If the cabinet equipment is to be located on the
ground, the equipment must be fenced with a 6 -foot -tall fence, and materials shall be used to
screen the equipment from view. Barbed wire may be used in the TVS, LI, HI, MIC /L, and
MIC /H zones.
5. Setbacks The proposed wireless communication facilities facility must meet the
setback of the applicable zoning category where the facility is to be located.
18.58.110 Non concealed Building Mounted Development Requirements.
The following requirements shall apply:
1. Height The proposed facility must meet the height requirements of the
applicable zoning category. If the building where the facility is located is at or above the maximum
height requirements, the antennas are permitted to extend a maximum of 3 feet above the existing
roof line. Non concealed building mounted facilities shall not qualify as "Rooftop Appurtenances"
under TMC 18.50.080.
2. Antenna aesthetics The first preference for any proposed facility is to utilize
flush mounted antennas. Nonflush- mounted antennas may be used when their visual impact will
be negated by the scale of the antennas to the building. "Shrouds" are not required unless they
provide a better visual appearance than exposed antennas. Antennas shall be painted to match the
color scheme of the building(s).
3. Feed lines and coaxial cables Feed lines and cables should be located below the
parapet of the rooftop. If the feed lines and cables must be visible, they must be painted to match
the color scheme of the building(s).
4. Cabinet equipment If cabinet equipment cannot be located within the building
where the wireless communication facilities will be located, then it must be located on the rooftop
of the building. If the equipment can be screened by placing the equipment below the parapet
walls, no additional screening is required. If screening is required, then the proposed screening
must be consistent with the existing building in terms of color, style, architectural style and
material. If the cabinet equipment is to be located on the ground, the equipment must be fenced
with a 6- foot -tall fence and materials shall be used to screen the equipment from view. Barbed
wire may be used in the TVS, LI, HI, MIC /L, and MIC /H zones.
18.58.120 Utility Pole Co location.
The following requirements shall apply:
1. Height The height of a utility pole co- location is limited to10 feet above the
replaced utility pole, and may be not greater than 50 feet in height in residential zones. Within all
other zones, the height of the utility pole is limited to 50 feet or the minimum height standards of
the underlying zoning, whichever is greater.
2. Replacement pole The replaced utility pole must be used by the owner of the
utility pole to support its utility lines (phone lines or electric). A replaced utility pole cannot be
used to provide secondary functions to utility poles in the area.
3. Pole aesthetics The replaced utility pole must have the color and general
appearance of the adjacent utility poles.
wireless ord. doc, 10/11/06 Page 9 of 26
4. Coaxial cables Coax cables limited to 'h" in diameter may be attached directly
to a utility pole. Coax cables greater than /z" must be placed within the utility pole. The size of
the cables is the total size of all coax cables being utilized on the utility pole.
5. Pedestrian impact The proposal shall not result in a significant change in the
pedestrian environment or preclude the City from making pedestrian improvements. If a utility
pole is being replaced, consideration must be made to improve the pedestrian environment if
necessary.
6. Cabinet equipment Unless approved by the Director of Public Works, all
cabinet equipment and the equipment enclosure must be placed outside of City right -of -way. If
located on a parcel that contains a building, the equipment enclosure must be located next to the
building. The cabinet equipment must be screened from view. The screening must be consistent
with the existing building in terms of color, style, architectural style and material. If the cabinet
equipment is to be located on the ground, the equipment must be fenced with a 6- foot -tall fence
and materials shall be used to screen the equipment from view. Barbed wire may be used in the
TVS, LI, HI, MIC /L, and MIC /H zones.
7. Setbacks Any portion of the wireless communication facilities located within
City right -of -way is not required to meet setbacks. The City will evaluate setbacks on private
property under the setback requirements set forth in TMC Section 18.58.170.
18.58.130 Towers Specific Development Standards.
The following requirements shall apply:
1. Height Any proposed tower with antennas shall meet the height standards of
the zoning district where the tower will be located.
2. Antenna and tower aesthetics The applicant shall utilize a wireless
communication concealed facility. The choice of concealing the wireless communication facility
must be consistent with the overall use of the site. For example, having a tower appear like a
flagpole would not be consistent if there are no buildings on the site. If a flag or other wind device
is attached to the pole, it must be appropriate in scale to the size and diameter of the tower.
3. Setbacks The proposed wireless communication facilities must meet the
setbacks of the underlying- zoning district. If an exception is granted under TMC Section
18.58.180 with regards to height, the setback of the proposed wireless communication facilities
will increase 2 feet for every foot in excess of the maximum permitted height in the zoning district.
4. Color The color of the tower shall be based on the surrounding land uses.
5. Feed lines and coaxial cables All feed lines and cables must be located within
the tower. Feed lines and cables connecting the tower to the equipment enclosure, which are not
located within the wireless communication facility equipment compound, must be located
underground.
18.58.140 Request to Use Non concealed Building Attached in Lieu of a Concealed
Building Attached.
The use of concealed building facilities shall have first priority in all residential and
commercial zones. However, an applicant may request to construct a non concealed building
attached wireless communication facility in lieu of a concealed wireless communication facility.
The following criteria shall be used:
1. Due to the size of the building and the proposed location of the antennas, the
visual impact of the exposed antennas will be minimal in relation to the building.
2. Cables are concealed from view and any visible cables are reduced in visibility by
sheathing or painting to match the building where they are located.
3. Cabinet equipment is adequately screened from view.
4. Due to the style or design of the building, the use of a concealed facility would
reduce the visual appearance of the building.
5. The building where the antennas are located is at least 200 feet from the
Duwamish/Green River.
18.58.150 Landscaping/Screening.
A. The visual impacts of wireless communication facilities may be mitigated and softened
through landscaping or other screening materials at the base of the tower, facility equipment
compound, equipment enclosures and ancillary structures, with the exception of wireless
communication facilities located on transmission towers, or if the antenna is mounted flush on an
existing building, or camouflaged as part of the building and other equipment is housed inside an
existing structure. The Director, Director of Public Works or Planning Commission, as
appropriate, may reduce or waive the standards for those sides of the wireless communication
facility that are not in public view, when a combination of existing vegetation, topography, walls,
wireless ord doc, 10/12/06 Page 10 of 26
decorative fences or other features achieve the same degree of screening as the required
landscaping; in locations where the visual impact of the tower would be minimal; and in those
locations where large wooded lots and natural growth around the property perimeter may be
sufficient buffer.
B. Landscaping shall be installed on the outside of fences. Existing vegetation shall be
preserved to the maximum extent practicable and may be used as a substitute for or as a
supplement to landscaping or screening requirements. The following requirements apply:
1. Screening landscaping shall be placed around the perimeter of the equipment
cabinet enclosure, except that a maximum 10 -foot portion of the fence may remain without
landscaping in order to provide access to the enclosure.
2. The landscaping area shall be a minimum of 5 feet in width around the perimeter
of the enclosure.
3. The applicant shall utilize evergreens that shall be a minimum of 6 feet tall at the
time of planting.
4. Applicant shall utilize irrigation or an approved maintenance schedule that will
insure that the plantings are established after two years from the date of planting.
C. The applicant shall replace any unhealthy or dead plant materials in conformance with
the approved landscaping development proposal, and shall maintain all landscape materials for the
life of the facility. In the event that landscaping is not maintained at the required level, the
Director, after giving 30 days advance written notice, may maintain or establish the landscaping at
the expense of the owner or operator and bill the owner or operator for such costs until such costs
are paid in full.
18.58.160 Zoning Setback Exceptions.
A. Generally, wireless communication facilities placed on private property must meet
setbacks of the underlying zoning. However, in some circumstances, allowing modifications to
setbacks may better achieve the goal of this Chapter of concealing such facilities from view.
B. The Director or Planning Commission, depending on the type of application, may
permit modifications to be made to setbacks when:
1. An applicant for a wireless communication facility can demonstrate that placing
the facility on certain portions of a property will provide better screening and aesthetic
considerations than provided under the existing setback requirements; or
2. The modification will aid in retaining open space and trees on the site; or
3. The proposed location allows for the wireless communication facility to be located
a greater distance from residentially -zoned (LDR, MDR, and HDR) properties.
C. This zoning setback modification cannot be used to waive /modify any required setback
required under the State Building Code or Fire Code.
18.58.170 Height Waivers.
Where the Planning Commission finds that extraordinary hardships, practical
difficulties, or unnecessary and unreasonable expense would result from strict compliance with the
height limitations of the Zoning Code, or the purpose of these regulations may be served to a
greater extent by an alternative proposal, it may approve a height waiver to these regulations;
provided that the applicant demonstrates that the waiver(s) will substantially secure the values,
objectives, standards, and requirements of this Chapter, TMC Title 18, and the Comprehensive
Land Use Plan, and demonstrate the following:
1. The granting of the height waiver will not be detrimental to the public safety,
health or welfare, or injurious to other property, and will promote the public interest; and
2. A particular and identifiable hardship exists or a specific circumstance warrants
the granting of a waiver. Factors to be considered in determining the existence of a hardship shall
include, but not be limited to:
a. Topography and other site features;
b. Availability of alternative site locations;
c. Geographic location of property; and
d. Size /magnitude of project being evaluated and availability of co- location.
B. In approving the waiver request, the Planning Commission may impose such conditions
as it deems appropriate to substantially secure the objectives of the values, objectives, standards
and requirements of this Chapter, TMC Title 18, and the Comprehensive Land Use Plan.
wireless ord doc, 10/11/06 Page 11 of 26
C. A petition for any such waiver shall be submitted, in writing, by the applicant with the
application for Planning Commission review. The petition shall state fully the grounds for the
waiver and all of the facts relied upon by the applicant.
18.58.180 Expiration.
Any application to install or operate a wireless communications facility shall expire
exactly one year from the date of issuance of the application unless significant progress has been
made to construct the facility. The City may extend the expiration period by up to one additional
year due to circumstances outside of the control of the applicant. However, the City shall not issue
an extension if any revisions have occurred to the City's Zoning Code which would affect the
wireless communication facility approved application.
18.58.190 Removal of Abandoned Wireless Communication Facilities.
Any antenna or tower that, after the initial operation of the facility, is not used for the
purpose for which it was intended at the time of filing of the application for a continuous period of
12 months shall be considered abandoned, and the owner of such antenna or tower shall remove
same within 90 days of receipt of notice from the City notifying the owner of such abandonment.
Failure to remove such abandoned tower shall result in declaring the antenna and /or tower a
public nuisance. If there are two or more users of a single tower, then this section shall not
become effective until all users cease using the tower.

Business Agenda:
A. Wireless Telecommunications Chapter Briefing
Mr. Lancaster reminded the committee that a 2006 Budget Goal was the creation of a wireless
telecommunications chapter within the city's zoning code. Mr. Miles indicated that Planning staff
began working on this project and briefed the Community Affairs and Parks (CAP) Committee in
March 2006. CAP referred the matter to the Planning Commission. Mr. Bacha has extensive
background and expertise on this subject and has reviewed drafts of the proposed ordinance. The
explosion of cellular device usage has triggered the need for the City to examine the process used to
review applications for wireless communication facilities.
t
The Planning Commission has held three public hearings as part of the process of developing the
new telecommunications chapter. As a result of those hearings and much discussion, the Planning
Commission recommended restrictions on how new cell towers are permitted. Mr. Miles reviewed the
draft ordinance and responded to questions. He explained that one of the provisions of the ordinance
is that a third party expert review be made of permit applications, for which the applicant would be
required to pay. Currently, the City pays for a third party review. Ms. Linder suggested that this
language be incorporated into other ordinances. Discussion of the proposed ordinance language
continued. Ms. Linder asked how long it would take to process an application under each category.
Mr. Miles replied that Type 1 would take approximately 28 days; Type 2, 3 months; and Type 4, 4 -5
months. Ms. Hernandez asked what would be classified as a "waiver request: Mr. Miles noted that
that would constitute variances. Mr. Miles continued and noted that there has not been a
request for a new tower since 1990. A new tower is typically the last option for companies since it
requires a large capital investment and a lengthy application process wherein they must demonstrate
that a stand alone monopole is the only way they can provide service in a particular area.
Mr. Bacha relayed information conceming telecommunications litigation and topics that have or have
not been addressed by the courts.
Ms. Linder referred to new towers, "The Planning Commission shall be the reviewing body on the
application to construct a tower and shall receive evidence demonstrating the following when acting
on an application to construct a new tower in the City (although nothing should be construed to infer
that meeting one, some, or all of the following shall entitle the applicant to approval):" Ms. Linder
noted that even if the applicant met all of the requirements, a permit could be denied. Mr. Bacha
replied that an applicant would have to meet the standard set by the 9 Circuit Court. Ms. Linder
asked that this language be reviewed. Mr. Duffle expressed concern with height of cellular towers
and placement of antennas on buildings with historical significance. Forward to Committee of the
Whole.

7.2 The maximum funding responsibilities imposed upon the parties during each year of this
Agreement shall not exceed the amounts that are established annually pursuant to
Section 4.4 herein.
WRIA 9 ILA 2007 -2015 (WRIA 9 Forum recomd., mod. 8 -24 -06 and 10 -2 -06; legal review complete) Page 8
7.3 No later than September 1 of each year of this Agreement, the WRIA 9 Watershed
Forum shall adopt a budget, including its overhead and administrative costs, for the
following calendar year. The budget shall propose the level of funding and other (e.g.,
staffing) responsibilities of the individual parties for the following calendar year and shall
propose the levels of funding and resources to be allocated to specific prioritized planning
and implementation activities within WRIA 9. The Parties shall thereafter take whatever
separate legislative or other actions as may be necessary to address such individual
responsibilities under the proposed budget, and shall have done so no later than
December 1 of each year. Parties may elect to secure grant funding to meet their
individual obligations.
7.4 Funds collected from the Parties or other sources on behalf of the WRIA 9 Watershed
Forum shall be maintained in a special fund by King County as Fiscal Agent and as ex
officio treasurer on behalf of the WRIA 9 Watershed Forum pursuant to rules and
procedures established and agreed to by the WRIA 9 Watershed Forum. Such rules
and procedures shall set out billing practices and collection procedures and any other
procedures as may be necessary to provide for its efficient administration and operation.
7.5 Any Party to this Agreement may inspect and review all records maintained in connection
with such fund at any reasonable time.
8. LATECOMERS. A county or city government in King County lying wholly or partially within the
management area of or with a major interest in WRIA 9 which has not become a Party to this
Agreement within twelve (12) months of the effective date of this Agreement may become a Party
by obtaining written consent of all the Parties to the Agreement. The provisions of Section 5
herein otherwise governing decisions of the WRIA 9 Watershed Forum shall not apply to this
section. The Parties of the Agreement and any governments seeking to become a Party shall
jointly determine the terms and conditions under which a government may become a new Party.
The terms and conditions shall include payment of an amount by the new Party to the WRIA 9
Watershed Forum. The amount of payment is determined jointly by the existing Parties of the
WRIA 9 Watershed Forum and the new Party. The payment of the new Party is to be a fair and
proportionate share of all costs associated with activities undertaken by the WRIA 9 Watershed
Forum as of the date the government becomes a new Parry. Any government that becomes a
Party pursuant to this section shall thereby assume the general rights and responsibilities of all
other Parties.
9. TERMINATION.
9.1 The obligations of any Party under this Agreement may be terminated by the Party,
through action of its governing body, only upon sixty (60) days' written notice to the other
Parties by not later than November 1 for termination effective January 1 of the following
year. The terminating Party shall remain fully responsible for meeting all of its funding
and other obligations through the end of the calendar year in which such notice is given,
WRIA 9 ILA 2007 2015 (WRIA 9 Forum recomd., mod. 8 -24 -06 and 10 -2 -06; legal review complete) Page 9
together with any other costs that may have been incurred on behalf of such terminating
Party up to the effective date of such termination. It is expected that the makeup of the
Parties to this Agreement may change from time to time. Regardless of any such
changes, the Parties choosing not to exercise the right of termination shall each remain
obligated to only meet their respective share of the obligations of the WRIA 9 Watershed
Forum as reflected in the annual budget. The shares of any terminating Party shall not
be the obligation of any of the Parties not choosing to exercise the right of termination.
9.2 This Agreement may be terminated in its entirety at any time by the written agreement of
all of the Parties.
10. HOLD HARMLESS AND INDEMNIFICATION. To the extent permitted by state law as to city
and county governments, and federal law as governing to tribes, and for the limited purposes set
forth in this Agreement, each Party shall protect, defend, hold harmless and indemnify the other
Parties, their officers, elected officials, agents and employees, while acting within the scope of
their employment as such, from and against any and all claims (including demands, suits,
penalties, liabilities, damages, costs, expenses, or losses of any kind or nature whatsoever)
arising out of or in any way resulting from such Party's own negligent acts or omissions related to
such Party's participation and obligations under this Agreement. Each Party to this Agreement
agrees that its obligations under this subsection extend to any claim, demand and /or cause of
action brought by or on behalf of any of its employees or agents. For this purpose, each Party, by
mutual negotiation, hereby waives, with respect to the other Parties only, any immunity that would
otherwise be available against such claims under the industrial insurance act provisions of Title
51 RCW. In the event that either Party incurs any judgment, award, and /or cost arising
therefrom, including attorneys' fees, to enforce the provisions of this Section, all such fees,
expenses, and costs shall be recoverable from the responsible Party to the extent of that Party's
culpability. The provisions of this Section shall survive and continue to be applicable to Parties
exercising the right of termination pursuant to Section 9 herein.
11. NO ASSUMPTION OF LIABILITY. In no event do the Parties to this Agreement intend to assume
any responsibility, risk or liability of any other Party to this Agreement or otherwise with regard to
any Party's duties, responsibilities or liabilities under the Endangered Species Act, or any other
act, statute, regulation or ordinance of any local municipality or government, the State of
Washington, or the United States.
12. VOLUNTARY AGREEMENT. This Agreement is voluntary and is acknowledged and agreed that
no Party is committing to adopt or implement any actions or recommendations that may be
contained in the Salmon Habitat Plan.
13. NO PRECLUSION OF ACTIVITIES OR PROJECTS. Nothing herein shall preclude any one or
more of the Parties from choosing or agreeing to fund or implement any work, activities or
projects associated with any of the purposes hereunder by separate agreement or action,
WRIA 9 ILA 2007 2015 (WRIA 9 Forum recomd., mod. 8 -24 -06 and 10 -2 -06; legal review complete) Page 10
provided that any such decision or agreement shall not impose any funding, participation or other
obligation of any kind on any Party which is not a party to such decision or agreement.
14. NO THIRD PARTY RIGHTS. Nothing contained in this Agreement is intended to, nor shall it be
construed to, create any rights in any third party, including without limitation the National Oceanic
and Atmospheric Administration Fisheries, United States Fish and Wildlife Service, any agency
or department of the United States, or the State of Washington, or to form the basis for any
liability on the part of the WRIA 9 Watershed Forum or any of the Parties, or their officers,

A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY
OF TUKWILA, WASHINGTON, EXPRESSING SUPPORT
FOR THE "TRANSIT NOW" INITIATIVE.
WHEREAS, King County Executive Ron Sims has proposed a one -tenth of one
percent increase in the sales tax in King County to support an increase in levels of
Metro Transit bus service; and
WHEREAS, to keep up with regional growth, this proposed increase would enable
Metro to expand system -wide bus service by an estimated 15 -20% over the next ten
years; and
WHEREAS, improvements would be made on approximately 35 major Metro bus
routes where ridership is heaviest, including Tukwila routes, and new service would be
created in residential areas of South King County; and
WHEREAS, the Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) system would be implemented in five key
corridors, including one in Tukwila, providing more frequent all-day service, faster
trips, more comfortable vehicles and stations, advanced customer information, and
traffic signal priority for buses; and
WHEREAS, an estimated additional 60,000 new riders would join the current
335,000 riders per day on buses that would arrive more frequently, travel faster, and be
more environmentally friendly; and
WHEREAS, the City Council wishes to provide their support and endorsement of
Executive Sims in his action to improve County -wide transit service;
NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF TUKWILA,
WASHINGTON, HEREBY RESOLVES AS FOLLOWS:

FROM: EVIE BOYKAN, HUMAN SERVICES
RE: PROPOSED HUMAN SERVICES CONTRACTED BUDGET
The proposed budget detail for contracts for 2007/2008 reflects extensive reading and review by
staff and the Tukwila Human Services Advisory Board. The proposed programs include
recommendations for 6 new programs representing the categories of safety net, positive and healthy
family relationships, support for self sufficiency and information and referral. Recommendations
represent a 4% growth over 2006. Not all funds targeted for ESL /literacy services have an identified
contractor at this time. We will continue to look at results of the recently held ESL /summit and
further define the best place for us to put general fund dollars to address this need area.
The recommendations and other on -going staff work also reflect an alignment to the goal areas
as identified by the 2005 Human Services Plan. Those areas include:
More stable and improved incomes for low income residents (Micro loan funds, rental and
emergency assistance, minor home repair)
Increasing resident stability (rental and emergency assistance, mental health support, minor
home repair)
Support community capacity building (capacity building project, ESL summit, subregional
forums and planning, cross departmental collaborations)
Increasing sense of community (outreach to diverse populations, linking volunteers)
Increasing coordination (provider networks, Tukwila exchange, BuRRSST, subregional and
regional forums)
The board identified that if additional dollars were available, they would like to see more
resources targeted to English Language Learners, and in particular, resources addressing the
Spanish and Somali speaking communities. These priorities are followed by desires to provide
more funding for emergency services, medical and dental coverage, self sufficiency support (i.e.
micro loans) and support for senior citizens.
We welcome your review and your questions.

MEMORANDUM
To: Mayor City Council fr From: Kevin A. Fuhrer, Finance Director
Date: October 11, 2006
Subject: CANCELLATION OF ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE
The annual proposed resolution totaling $17,778.30 reflects amounts deemed
uncollectible. The items listed have been through the City's collection program and
have not been successfully resolved. Although we are writing them off the "official" City
books, these amounts will still be subject to collection. These items include: False
Alarms Account total of $835.50, NSF Checks Account total of $402.97 and all other
Miscellaneous Billing Account total of $16,539.83. The funds affected will be properly
adjusted.
The process for tracking accounts receivable is quite thorough. The steps below are
followed prior to the attached write -off resolution:
Invoice is sent to recipient by the Finance Department, payable in 30 days.
Second notice is then sent specifying due date before receivable is forwarded to
collection agency.
Collection agency sends a series of three letters for the original amount due, with
the final letter advising that legal action will be taken if payment is not made. If
there is no response from debtor after the letter series, the debt is then reported to
the National Credit Bureaus.
Collection agency then pursues legal action after the debtor is given a final
opportunity to dispute the claim. This includes attaching checking accounts,
garnishments, lawsuits and other legal methods.
The items on the proposed resolution reflect those that have been through the process
above and receivables are still due with the likelihood of collection being very low. We
do collect amounts after write -offs, but very seldom.
The City cannot revoke or deny a business license for non payment of an accounts
receivable claim.
