BACKGROUND The MSWMAC (Committee) was recently created by King County Ordinance 14971 to advise the Executive, the Solid Waste InterlocalForum, and the King County Council in all matters relating to solid waste and to participate in the development of the waste export system plan. The Committee will facilitate, the resolution of solid waste issues and improve communications between King County and cities. Until the Committee convenes in 2005, the inter jurisdictional group consisting of representatives from cities (including Tukwila) will serve in lieu of the Committee. DISCUSSION Cities participating in King County 's solid waste, system are requested to appoint a representative and an alternate to the Committee.' City representatives could be staff personnel, council members, or a combination of staff/council members. To date, eleven cities have appointed represefltatives to the Committee. Six cites have appointed staff and five have appointed city council members. Appointment to the Committee is an informal process and does not require council approval. Given the significance of the work that the Committee will have to accomplish and the impact that the Committee will have in shaping this region's future solid waste system, it is important for the City 'to have representation in the Committee. Jim Morrow and Frank lriarte have been working withthe'interjusrisdictional technical staff group for several months. Recommend that they be allowed to continue representing the City in the newly created Committee. RECOMMENDATION Authorize the Mayor to appoint Frank Iriarte as the City's representative and Jim Morrow as the City's alternate to the Metropolitan Solid Waste Management Advisory Committee. attachment: KC Solid Waste Division letter dated August 23,2004 (p:a1iccllnfo Memo-MSWMAC) - .~.#~~_:~::-~-~;~.\ {"""\"~' f /- ...-\" ,; .1 , '~t'~;c,;:;,;;0l.

King County Solid Waste Division has asked for all cities including Tukwila's participation in the group. They will advise the King County Executive as well as the Solid Waste Interlocal Forum and County Council about solid waste issues. Our garbage franchise with the County runs until 2028. Eleven.cities have appointed representatives and alternates appointed to the MSWMAC thus far. Six have been,staffrepresentatives, andfive have been elected officials. The Committee wanted to offer the chance to be on the Committee to any Council Member who was interested.,lfno Council Of Mayor volunteers, Jim Morrow and Frank Iriarte will serve as member and alternate. One of the issuesaroundsolidwaste is mandatory garbage pick up. The County may want everyone to have this service when it starts to export its waste when Cedar Hills closes in eight years. Tukwila,h~sthe highest percentage of self-haulers 'in the area. This may change as the County makes it more difficult to self-haul with shorter hours and higher costs. For people who visit the dump once or twice a year, this could hurt them. The Committee wanted to talk about mandatory garbage at their Council retreat. Recommend issue of representation to MSWMAC to COW. 2. Cascade Water Alliance Pat Brodin updated the Committee on Cascade Water Alliance (CW A). The budget has been proposed at $29.9 million for 2005. Pat said Tukwila will get a $106,877 refund from the purveyor balance accountfrom the previous contract. CW A is buying the Bellevue/lssaquahpipeline for the Sammamish plateau for $13 million. They're negotiating with Seattle to use Sea.ttlepipes for the Tacoma Second Supply line water, but Seattle wants too much money for that so far. The status of Lake Tapps water is that CW A is working with Puget Sound Energy (PSE) to buy facilities and .real estate. The pipeline is on schedule, though there is some issue with the Native American tribes now suing about water use. PSE has stepped away from the dam there, and CWA may acquire it for controlling water flows. Update information. 3. Other Sound Transirhas paid half oftheir construction permit funds to the City. That fee amounts to $887 ,000 for this year, and a similar amount will be paid again next year.
