BACKGROUND MRFH LLC is proposing to locate a microbrewery at 402 Baker Boulevard. The p ject involves a remodel of an existing building previously used for a glass manufacturing and retail business. The proposed use includes the manufacturing of beer (up to 15,000 gallons annually), a business office, related parking facilities, and a 1,734 square foot tasting room and retail outlet open to the public. Redevelopment will consist of tenant improvements to the existing building, as well as exterior building/architectural and site improvements that exceed current code requirements. The project site is located within the Tukwila Urban Center (TUC) District. Current zoning regulations for this district allow brew pubs (producing up to 2'500 gallons beer/year) but exclude the manufacturing of foods involving fermenting (e.g., a large scale brewery). The type and scale of use proposed by MRFH is not directly addressed by the TMC but is desirable in the urban environment envisioned in the Southcenter area by the City's Comprehensive Plan. When combined with a tasting room and outdoor seating, this use furthers the community's vision for Baker Boulevard as an active, pedestrian-oriented corridor serving a future mixed use, higher density neighborhood connecting the Mall, bus transit center, and future pedestrian bridge over the Green River with the Tukwila Sounder Commuter Rail/Amtrak Station. This project will ServS as the type of amenity and attraction desired by current and future residents, workers, and visitors in the Southcenter area. TMC 18.86 allows the City to use development agreements to provide flexibility to achieve public benefits and respond to changing community needs. Approval of this development agreement would allow Odin Brewery to locate within the Urban Center and produce up to 15,000 barrels of beer annually. DISCUSSION The Development Agreement contains the following criteria which must be met in order for a Microbrewery to be a permitted use in the TUC District: • sells beer for consumption on site and for sale in sealed containers; • produces no more than 15'000 barrels of beer annually; and • utilizes an air treatment system and/or other machinery so that the brewery meets Puget Sound Clean Air Agency Regulations regarding odors, and that the brewing process does not cause off-site impacts on neighboring properties or create a public nuisance. (This goes beyond what is normally required to address odors.) INFORMATIONAL MEMO Page 2 In support of the Southcenter Element of the City's Comprehensive Plan, the applicant has agreed to project—related improvements that will: • enhance the overall image and architectural design quality of the Southcenter area by iOCO[pOratingfGgade improvements that minimize the appearance of the building's length and height and add visual interest; • contribute to the pedestrian orientation of Baker Boulevard by constructing wider sidewalks with landscaping that matches the adjacent public frontage; • make access management improvements on Baker Boulevard by reducing curb cuts and combining driveways; and • provide safe pedestrian pathways through the parking lot by connecting the building's public entrance to the street edge with a raised crosswalk. These access, public frontage, site, and architectural design improvements will be further refined by staf during the building permit review process. FINANCIAL IMPACT None. RECOMMENDATION The Committee is being asked to forward the ordinance to the February 24, 2014 Committee of the Whole meeting for a public hearing and March 3, 2014 Regular meeting for action.

I. RECITALS WHEREAS, the Washington State Legislature has authorized the execution of development agreements between a local government and a person having ownership or control of real property within its jurisdiction pursuant to RCW 36.70B170, and Tukwila Municipal Code (TMC) Chapter 18.86 allows for development agreements to respond to changing community needs and to adequately achieve the purpose of the provisions of the TMC; and WHEREAS, MRFH intends to develop the interior and provide exterior improvements to an existing building to accommodate a microbrewery that would comprise approximately 10,500 square feet of manufacturing and storage space, 600 square feet of business office space, and 1,734 square feet for a public tasting room and retail space; and WHEREAS, the project site lies within an area zoned Tukwila Urban Center (TUC). The City's Comprehensive Plan for this area envisions this area as a high- density, regionally - oriented, mixed -use center having walkable, as well as auto - oriented, shopping and entertainment districts, and having recreational opportunities for business people, residents, and visitors; and WHEREAS, the type of use proposed by MRFH is not directly addressed by the TMC and is a hybrid use which is desirable to the urban environment envisioned by the City's Comprehensive Plan; and WHEREAS, the complexity of transforming a suburban pattern of development to a more urban one is such that change cannot be expected or required to happen all at once. More likely, the majority of the development within Southcenter over the next 20 years will be as a result of market- driven renovations, such as the MRFH proposal, and expansions rather than entirely new construction; and WHEREAS, it is not the intent of the City to discourage such redevelopment, as new investment should enhance the image and appeal of the area. Instead, the City's strategy is to move forward in phases, leading with public investments and implementing a set of regulations that condition redevelopment and result in incremental changes to the urban form that are in alignment with the community's long -term vision. Over time, these changes will serve as a Page 1 of 12 7 framework, catalyst, and attractor for the types of development envisioned for the urban center. This redevelopment of the existing building and site will serve as the type of amenity and attraction desired by current and future residents, workers and visitors in the Southcenter area; and WHEREAS, as part of the MRFH proposal, it will enhance the overall image and architectural design quality of the Southcenter area, and contribute towards the pedestrian orientation of Baker Boulevard by improving the streetscape via wider sidewalks and landscaping, making access management improvements, and providing safe pedestrian pathways through the parking lot by connecting the building's public entrance to the street edge; and WHEREAS, this project is located in the northern part of Southcenter, in a core area envisioned as a growing transit - supportive mixed -use neighborhood with residential, office, retail, and entertainment uses; and WHEREAS, the project site is located on Baker Boulevard, the high priority corridor for the City that provides a more direct, walkable route via the planned pedestrian bridge over the Green River, connecting the Mall and future Transit - Oriented Development neighborhood to the Tukwila Sounder Commuter Rail /Amtrak Station; and WHEREAS, the Southcenter Element of Tukwila's Comprehensive Plan encourages establishing a pedestrian- oriented environment through site planning, streetscape design, and improvements to the Urban . Center's network of streets, trails, and sidewalks; and this project will further the community's vision of a pedestrian friendly, walkable neighborhood by constructing public frontage improvements, including landscaping, along Baker Boulevard and implementing access management strategies; and WHEREAS, the Southcenter Element of Tukwila's Comprehensive Plan calls for ensuring that pedestrians have safe, convenient, and comfortable paths from adjacent public ways through large parking lots to key building entrances, and the project's site design and pedestrian improvements implement this policy; and WHEREAS, the Southcenter Element of Tukwila's Comprehensive Plan promotes high quality architecture in Southcenter, and the project's architectural design improvements to the existing building's facade will be of high quality and will improve the image of Baker Boulevard, the Southcenter area, and identity for the entire City, thereby having the potential to attract further high quality development; and WHEREAS, a development agreement must be approved by ordinance or resolution after a public hearing; and WHEREAS, a public hearing for this Agreement was held on and the City Council approved this Agreement by Ordinance No. ; and Page 2 of 12 8 WHEREAS, the Agreement constitutes a final land use action pursuant to RCW 36.70C.020 and is subject to review pursuant to RCW 36.70C.101 et seq. NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises set forth herein and the long -term benefit to both the City and MRFH, the parties hereby agree as follows: II. AGREEMENT Section 1. Incorporation of Recitals. The Parties agree that the foregoing recitals are true and correct to the best of their knowledge and are incorporated by this reference as though fully set forth herein. Section 2. Project Description. The project is referred to as "Odin Brewery" and involves a remodel of an existing 12,825- square -foot building previously used for manufacturing, storage and business offices for a glass manufacturing and retail business. This project is located at 402 Baker Boulevard on a parcel 53,504 square feet in size within the Southcenter area, Tukwila's Urban Center, and is identified on Exhibit 1, Project Site Map. The anticipated use of the property includes the manufacturing and storage of beer, a business office, and a small tasting room and retail outlet open to the public, as well as related parking facilities. Redevelopment will consist of tenant improvements, exterior building /architectural improvements, and site improvements. Current zoning regulations govern the manufacturing of beverages and the location of brew pubs. This microbrewery use is not contemplated by the TMC. However, TMC Chapter 18.86 allows the City to use development agreements to provide flexibility to achieve public benefits and respond to changing community needs. Section 3. Statement of Authority and Intent. This agreement is entered into pursuant to the authorization of RCW 36.70B.170 and TMC Chapter 18.86 and is intended and designed to vest this Project under current Governing Regulations, subject to Section 4 herein (Development Standards), for the Vesting Period. Unless this Development Agreement is sooner terminated in accordance with Section 9 hereof, the Vesting Period shall be for a period of three (3) years commencing on the Effective Date (the "Vesting Period "). Section 4. Development Standards: Conditions. 4.1 Intent. The intent of the Development Agreement is to allow the site to be used as a microbrewery. This use, when combined with a tasting room and outdoor seating, furthers the community's vision for Baker Boulevard as an active, pedestrian- oriented corridor serving a future mixed use, higher density neighborhood, and connecting the Mall, bus transit center, and future pedestrian bridge over the Green River with the Tukwila Sounder Commuter Rail /Amtrak Station. In turn, project- related improvements will enhance the overall image and architectural design quality of the Southcenter area, and contribute towards the pedestrian orientation of Baker Boulevard by improving the streetscape via wider sidewalks and landscaping, making access management improvements, and providing safe pedestrian pathways through the parking lot by Page 3 of 12 9 connecting the building's public entrance to the street edge (See Exhibit 2, Preliminary Site Plan). These access, public frontage, site, and architectural design improvements will be further refined during the building permit review process. 4.2 Application of Development Standards. Pursuant thereto and during the Effective Period, the provisions of this Section 4 set forth the development standards that differ from or supplement those standards set forth in the City's development regulations. Accordingly, the following development standards shall apply to and govern and vest the development and use of the Project in lieu of any conflicting or different standards or requirements elsewhere in the TMC. 4.3 Permitted Uses. In addition to those uses permitted in the TUC district in TMC Chapter 18.28, a microbrewery is allowed, providing it meets the following criteria: 4.3.1 Sells beer for consumption on site and for sale in sealed containers; 4.3.2 Produces no more than 15,000 barrels of beer annually; and 4.3.3 Utilizes an air treatment system and/or other machinery so that the brewery meets Puget Sound Clean Air Agency Regulations regarding odors, and that the brewing process does not cause off -site impacts on neighboring properties or create a public nuisance. 4.4 Access and Public Frontage Improvements. MRFH will improve the streetscape, walkability, and accessibility by reducing curb cuts, widening the public sidewalk, and adding street trees. These improvements will be made prior to the issuance of a Certificate of Occupancy. 4.4.1 The site currently has three driveways. The project will close the middle driveway and relocate the western driveway to the west lot line, creating a common driveway with the adjacent parcel. 4.4.2 MRFH will construct a 15 -foot sidewalk, extending from back of existing curb, running the length of the property, and tying into the 15 -foot sidewalk on the east side of the property. Where the sidewalk crosses driveways, the sidewalk shall continue across the driveway at the same elevation or `level'; the driveway shall not "break" the sidewalk network. 4.4.3 MRFH will install new street trees and landscaping on the new public sidewalk on Baker Boulevard. Street tree species will be agreed upon by the City and the developer, and will be planted in landscaped tree wells a minimum 36 square feet in size, located at back of curb. Trees shall be spaced every 20 -30 feet, depending on species and location of underground or at- ground utilities and considering the proximity of existing trees on either side of project. Page 4 of 12 10 4.5 Site Improvements. The project will construct a 15- foot -wide plaza adjacent to the south face of the building that will provide an outdoor seating area away from the street. In addition, the project will construct a wooden fence to screen an outdoor patio located adjacent to the tasting room. The back side of the project site shall be fenced with gates for additional security. A raised crosswalk will connect the public sidewalk to the building's public entrance, providing safe pedestrian access through the parking lot. 4.6 Architectural Design Standards /Improvements. 4.6.1 Transparency. The project will increase transparency in the area between the height of 2 and 10 feet (minimum) along the length of the building facade that faces Baker Boulevard. Darkly tinted glass, mirrored glass, and glass covered by screening sheets, white, or UV protection film will not be used. 4.6.2 Facade Articulation and Modulation. The project will incorporate facade articulation and modulation features that minimize the appearance of the building's length and height and add visual interest. Features will include: (a) Change in building materials or color; (b) Landscaping; and (c) Other alternatives that meet the intent. Section 5. Major and Minor Amendments — Development Agreement.

Briefing on Freeway Interchange Signs Pursuant to a request made at the January 13, 2014 Committee of the Whole meeting, staff provided the Committee with a briefing on the sign code regulations with regard to freeway interchange signs in the City. The sign code, adopted in August 2010 after an eight -month review and deliberation process, disallows new freeway interchange signs. The five existing freeway interchanges signs became noncomforming at that time, and are permitted to have refaces and copy changes until August 2015 providing that the sign size, shape, and location do not change. After that date, they may remain as -is indefinitely. Stan Peterson, owner of the Union 76 station located at 13310 Interurban Avenue South, approached the Council early this year about his wish to reface and expand the freeway interchange sign at his business as an effective means to promote the sale of diesel fuel to freeway travellers. The current sign has a total area of 200 square feet, but the proposed enhancements would make it 266.16 square feet, more than was permitted under the old sign code. Mr. Peterson and his family were in attendance at the committee meeting and spoke on behalf of their sign proposal. Committee members asked clarifying questions of staff and the Petersons and finally requested that information about options be brought back to Committee in March. Councilmember Robertson noted the great amount of time and effort the City put into the 2010 update of the sign code. INFORMATION ONLY. D. Ordinance: Authorizing a Development Agreement with MRFH, LLC, for Odin Brewery Project Staff is seeking Council approval of an ordinance that would authorize a Development Agreement with MRFH, LLC for a proposed microbrewery business at 402 Baker Boulevard. The project involves a remodel of an existing building to acommodate the manfucaturing of up to 15,000 gallons of beer annually, a business office, parking facilities, and a tasting room and retail outlet open to the public. Redevelopment will include improvements to the existing building as well as exterior site improvements in excess of current code requirements. The proposed business is located in the Tukwila Urban Center District, and this use is in line with the community's vision for Baker Boulevard as a vibrant, pedestrian- oriented corridor, providing an attraction desirable to residents, workers, and visitors in this area. The Development Agreement will allow the City the flexibility to accommodate Odin Brewery in the Urban Center District. The Agreement includes criteria that MRFH, LLC must meet to avoid odor impacts on neighboring properties. Further, the applicant has agreed to numerous safety and pedestrian - related improvements that will serve as enchancements to this area. The owners of Odin Brewing Company made remarks on behalf of the proposed project and expressed their enthusiasm for joining the community. UNANIMOUS APPROVAL. FORWARD TO FEBRUARY 24, 2014 COMMITTEE OF THE WHOLE FOR PUBLIC HEARING. III. MISCELLANEOUS Councilmember Robertson mentioned several comments made at his February 8 Council Chat regarding code enforcement and the state of residential neighborhoods, and noted that other Councilmembers have increasingly heard similar feedback from residents. At its last meeting, the Community Affairs and Parks Committee had requested a briefing on the impacts of the rental housing inspection program, and Committee members and staff talked further about the specifics of such a briefing, the potential review of policies, and how best to ensure code enforcement in the City is as quick and proactive as possible. Committee Chair Duffie noted that Tukwila Police staff referred him to Code Enforcement staff regarding a recent situation at a rental property, and requested a follow -up. DCD Director Jack Pace summarized ways to address the Committee requests including 1) briefing on the rental housing inspection objectives, and if they have been served since implementation; 2) overview of Code Enforcement policies and effectiveness; and 3) reminder of how the Budget Process and Comprehensive Plan update will address some of these issues. Councilmember Seal noted that community outreach is an important factor, and code enforcement education should be included in outreach activities presented by the City. 23 24 COUNCIL AGENDA SYNOPSIS Meetiqade Prepared by Ma 'or review Col, /hi 1 nob. ea, 02/24/14 BM Motion A kg Dale' Z-V\ 03/03/14 BM Public Hear/ nj; MI Data — Other 1.1N Date AN Date A kg Date 3/3/14 SPONSOR Counci/ 7 z\46gor HR.

Should the City expand properties eligible for Tukwila Landmark designation from only city owned sites to any site where the property owner supports the designation? BACKGROUND On November 11, 2012, the City Council adopted City Council Ordinance No. 2384, which adopted regulations regarding the protection and preservation of historic landmarks in the City. As the Committee may recall, the Ordinance was supported by the Tukwila Historical Society, which hoped to secure funding from 4Culture to complete work to {}|d City Hall. Old City Hall would need to be deemed a Tukwila Landmark in order to quality for potential funding. When the Council considered Ordinance 2384 there was concern that private property could be forced to participate in a landmark designation without the consent of the property owner. To address this issue the Ordinance was drafted to only apply to City owned property. Thus, non- city owned property cannot be deemed a Tukwila Landmark and thus would be ineligible for funding from 4Culture. City staff has been working with the Masonic Lodge located at 13034 41 Ave South. The brick on the |Odge, which was built in 1820s. needs to be replaced. Lacking funding to fix the existing brick exterior the Masons have proposed to install hardieplank as the exterior siding. While this would likely be permitted under the City design review Standards, both the City and Masons recognized that the use of hardieplank is detrimental to the historical character of the structure. In January, the City convened a meeting with the Masons, State of Washington, and King County to brainstorm options for preserving the character of the building's exterior. The State and King County have identified some possible funding options for the Masons; however, in order to possibly qualify for the funding the site must be designated as a Tukwila Landmark. As discussed above, the site cannot qualify as a Tukwila Landmark because the site is not owned by the City. DISCUSSION Staff is proposing a change to the Ordinance which would remove the requirement that a site be owned by the City in order to be considered a Tukwila Landmark. Written permission from the property owner would be required, thus this would prevent a landmark designation from being made in the event that a property owner objected the designation. This change would allow the Masons to qualify for the designation and would also allow the Nelson House to possibility seek designation by the City as a Tukwila Landmark. INFORMATIONAL MEMO Page 2 On November 5, 2012, the City Council also authorized the Mayor to sign an interlocal agreement (ILA) with King County for historical preservation services. City staff does not have the expertise to administer such a program. The ILA was transmitted to King County in January of 2013. In November of 2013 a copy of the ILA was provided back to the City, with changes made by the King County Council. These changes were made without consulting City Administration. The proposed changes would require that the City Council review and reauthorize the Mayor to sign the ILA. Staff is working with King County to hopefully revert back to the agreement that was reviewed by the City Council in December of 2012. One issue with the language proposed by King County is that it limits King County historical preservation work on properties owned by the City. This presents issues with staff's current proposal to allow non- city OvvnedpnDpertiestoqug|ifyfO[L8ndnnarkSt8tuS. FINANCIAL IMPACT None. RECOMMENDATION Refer to the draft Ordinance to the February 24, 2014 Committee of the Whole meeting. The Ordinance is scheduled to go to the Regular Council for possible action on March 3, 2014. If changes are made to the ILA, staff will bring those back to the Committee as quickly as possible.

Grant Applications: Chinook Wind Site Staff is seeking Committee approval to submit various grant applications to acquire property for a proposed habitat project titled "Chinook Wind ", which could establish a significant off- channel habitat and could be linked to the Duwamish Gardens project currently underway. Construction on the Duwamish Gardens project is expected to begin this summer, and the City currently has an interlocal agreement to obtain additional property on the west side of the site. The owner of the Sleeping Tiger property adjacent to the potential expansion site has indicated a willingness to enter into a purchase and sale agreement for the entire site. This property includes two parcels totaling 5.83 acres with approximately 700' of river frontage. Funding options for the property acquisition include Salmon Recovery Funding Board, Aquatic Lands Enhancement Account, King County Flood Control District, King County Conservation Futures, and King County mitigation bank funding. UNANIMOUS APPROVAL TO SUBMIT GRANT APPLICATIONS. B. Ordinance: Updating Historic Landmarks Staff is seeking Council approval of an ordinance that would amend Tukwila Municipal Code Section 16.60.020 to remove the requirement that a site be owned by the City in order to receive historic landmark designation. Under this proposal written permission from the property owner would be required in all cases. Funding opportunities from the County or State often require official landmark designation, so this change will benefit properties that are seeking funds for restoration, such as the Masonic Lodge located at 13034 415' Avenue South. In this case, the original 1920s brickwork needs replacement and the Masons would like to seek funding to use brick rather than a cheaper alternative in order to preserve the character of the building. Other historic structures in Tukwila, such as the Nelson House, could benefit from this code change as well. If this ordinance is approved by Council a related interlocal agreement with King County will be revised to eliminate conflicting language. Committee members and guests in attendance were in favor of the proposal. UNANIMOUS APPROVAL.

Similar to the Council's authorization for four pipeline positions in the Police Department, this would allow the Fire Department to recruit, hire and train employees when there are known retirements and vacancies. BACKGROUND Pipeline positions are created to address the need to hire personnel when there are known vacancies. They provide departments with the necessary hiring authority within the current 8dOotedbUdget.Th8SeOevvennp|OyeeseretheOinthe''pipe|ine^to fill these upcoming vacancies. This decreases the gap in personnel coverage which can average six to nine nlOnthS, due to the training requirements for new employees. The Police Department has used this practice effectively for the past several years to fill their vacancies. DISCUSSION Currently, when a member announces his or her retirement no action can be taken until the member has given official notice to the City and the State. This creates a significant delay in posting, necruiting, hiring and training available positions. Additional delays result from the lack of the availability of sanctioned recruit academies. This results in departmental gaps in personnel covenage, requiring payment of overtime wages in order to address the coverage for such gaps. With some foresight, planning hiring pipeline employees can result in potential cost Savings and increased operational effectiveness for our organization. For example, in August of 2012, two long tenured department members retired on very short notice. This resulted in a delay in placing qualified replacements into an on-duty status for a period of nine months. Currently there are 10 fire department personnel eligible for retirement in the next two years. The next few years will present significant challenges in planning for succession. The Police Department currently utilizes pipeline positions and it has proven to be very effective in reducing overtime when a vacancy occurs. This practice has also helped to keep staffing levels stable so that there is continuity in service and departmental efficiencies can continue to improve. 38 INFORMATIONAL MEMO Page 2 FINANCIAL IMPACT In 2012 approximately $210,000 in overtime was expended to cover two vacant positions until replacements could be hired. The cost of hiring and training two replacement employees four months prior to the retirement of two senior members can be accomplished at an approximate cost of $200.000. This would result in savings to the City and provide for a continuity of service and reduced impacts to the operational efficiency of the organization. In 8ddition, a brief period Of overlap between the addition of new members and the retirement of senior members allows for training and knowledge transfer that is invaluable to the Department. RECOMMENDATION It is the Fire Department Administration's recommendation that up to three pipeline positions be authorized. The Fire Department Administration with the assistance of City Administration, the Finance Department and Human Resources will monitor the necessity to utilize the pipeline positions. The Council is being asked to approve the proposal and consider this item at the February 24, 2014 Committee of the Whole meeting and subsequent March 03, 2012 Regular Meeting. amncurenm and Sottin slchnmv.Tomw|LAlLoca|SellingmTamvnmrymtemetpileo1Cnmom0vtloomFOTTArSUxmowemumpipelinesmp*yen .doc City of Tukwila Finance and Safety Committee FINANCE AND SAFETY COMMITTEE Meeting Minutes February 19, 2014 — 5:30 p.m.; Hazelnut Conference Room PRESENT Councilmembers: Verna Seal, Chair; Joe Duffie, Kathy Hougardy Staff: David Cline, Chris Flores, Peggy McCarthy, Vicky Carlsen, Mike Villa, Laurel Humphrey CALL TO ORDER: Committee Chair Seal called the meeting to order at 5:32 p.m. I. PRESENTATIONS No presentations. II. BUSINESS AGENDA A. Fire Department Pipeline Staffing Proposal The Fire Department is seeking Council approval to create up to three pipeline positions which would allow for the recruitment, hiring and training of new employees when vacancies are known in advance, as with retirements. This would help ensure continuity of service as well as reduce the high overtime costs incurred when staff at current levels must cover vacancies. There are currently 10 Fire Department personnel eligible for retirement within the next two years, and the Police Department has successfully used this strategy to reduce overtime costs for several years. Councilmembers asked clarifying questions, including how the City will measure the financial impact of this practice. Staff indicated that measures are included in the normal budgeting processes. UNANIMOUS APPROVAL. FORWARD TO FEBRUARY 24, 2014 COMMITTEE OF THE WHOLE. B. Grant Application: 2014 FEMA Assistance to Firefighters The Fire Department is seeking Council approval to proceed with an application to FEMA for the 2014 Assistance to Firefighters Grant in the amount of $391,272.00 for replacement of radios and operating system. The current radios and system will be obsolete in five years, and the cost to replace them is approximately $412,000.00. If the grant is awarded, the City will be required to contribute $20,593.00 in matching funds, which are available in the Fire Department's equipment budget. Staff will continue to pursue this particular grant if it is not awarded in 2014. Councilmember Hougardy noted that a radio system overhaul such as this should be planned for through the budget process by use of a replacement schedule. UNANIMOUS APPROVAL. FORWARD TO FEBRUARY 24, 2014 COMMITTEE OF THE WHOLE. C. Ordinance and Resolution: False Alarm Fees Staff is seeking Council approval of an ordinance and companion resolution relating to updating the fees charged for false alarms. Police false alarm fees have not been adjusted since 1985 and fire not since 2004. Because significant City resources are required to both respond to and bill for false alarms, staff is proposing an increase to the fees to offset the costs to the City as well as to act as a deterrent. False alarm statistics in Tukwila as well as fees assessed by neighboring jurisdictions were reviewed. Under the proposal, the first two false alarms within one calendar year will not be assessed a fee, which is not a change from the current practice. The third false alarm in the year would be $150, an increase from the currently charged $25, and the fourth and subsequent false alarms would be charged $200, up from the current $50.

Due to the economic downturn over the past 8 years the City of Tukwila has had to re- prioritize our spending, including our Radio Replacement schedule. This reprioritization has placed us in a challenging financial situation, as now we have a need to replace 65 Portable Radio's and 10 mobile and base radios. 2012 2011 2010 0 2 1 6 8 6 0 0 0 9 7 7 10443534 93 % No Several years ago Nextel cellular services was ordered by the FCC to replace certain first responder radios and to move them to different frequencies. This order, to be funded by Nextel, was given so as to eliminate interference between their cellular signals and first responder radios. Nextel replaced 22 of our mobile and eight base station radios. We expected more of our radio fleet would be replaced by Nextel. Unfortunately our hope was not realized and we were left with 65 portable radios and ten mobile radios that are not P -25 compliant (P25 is collaborative project to ensure that two -way radios are interoperable). Over half of our portable radio inventory is over 20 years old and the other half is 15 years old. The local radio shop has to cannibalize parts to repair these radios as Motorola no longer supports them. Due to age and rigorous use, the liquid crystal screens on many of these radios are almost unreadable. Older https: / /eservices. fema. gov /FemaFireGrant/ firegrant / jsp /fire2013 /application/print_app .j sp?... 1/27/2014 51 Application Number: EMW- 2013 -FO -02617 Page 8 of 24 technology batteries are always an issue and are frequently dying on us in the field. These radios are also in the shop numerous times for repair and transmitter alignment. Firefighter and police officer safety is greatly compromised by having these old radios in the field and need to be replaced as soon as possible. Our original plan was to budget for radio replacement over the next 5 years. But due to increased risk to firefighter and police officer safety we are asking for Federal help. The fire department is seeking Federal assistance and will purchase new portable and mobile radios with any Federal money received. The money originally budgeted for fire department radio replacement will then be given to the police department to replace their radios sooner. We have a need to purchase 65 dual band portable radios, each with a spare lithium -ion battery, speaker microphone, Bluetooth earpiece, and battery charger adaptor. We need 10 dual band mobile radios to be placed in front line apparatus. * How many vehicles does your organization have in each of the types or class of vehicle listed below?

Further, please describe what you are requesting funding for including budget descriptions of the major budget items, i.e., personnel, equipment, contracts, etc. *3000 characters Due to the economic downtum over the past 8 years the City of Tukwila has had to re- prioritize our spending, including our Radio Replacement schedule. This reprioritization has placed us in a challenging financial situation, 56 https: / /eservices. fema. gov /FemaFireGrant/firegrant/ jsp /fire2013 /application/print_app .j sp?... 1/27/2014 Application Number: EMW- 2013 -FO -02617 Page 13 of 24 as now we have a need to replace 65 Portable Radio's and 10 mobile and base radios. Several years ago Nextel cellular services was ordered by the FCC to replace certain first responder radios and to move them to different frequencies. This order, to be funded by Nextel, was given so as to eliminate interference between their cellular signals and first responder radios. Nextel replaced 22 of our mobile and eight base station radios. We expected more of our radio fleet would be replaced by Nextel. Unfortunately our hope was not realized and we were left with 65 portable radios and ten mobile radios that are not P -25 compliant (P25 is collaborative project to ensure that two -way radios are interoperable). Over half of our portable radio inventory is over 20 years old and the other half is 15 years old. The local radio shop has to cannibalize parts to repair these radios as Motorola no longer supports them. Due to age and rigorous use, the liquid crystal screens on many of these radios are almost unreadable. Older technology batteries are always an issue and are frequently dying on us in the field. These radios are also in the shop numerous times for repair and transmitter alignment. Firefighter and police officer safety is greatly compromised by having these old radios in the field and need to be replaced as soon as possible. Our original plan was to budget for radio replacement over the next 5 years. But due to increased risk to firefighter and police officer safety we are asking for Federal help. The fire department is seeking Federal assistance and will purchase new portable and mobile radios with any Federal money received. The money originally budgeted for fire department radio replacement will then be given to the police department to replace their radios sooner. We have a need to purchase 65 dual band portable radios, each with a spare lithium -ion battery, speaker microphone, Bluetooth earpiece, and battery charger adaptor. We need 10 dual band mobile radios to be placed in front line apparatus. * Section # 2 Cost/Benefit: In the space provided below please explain, as clearly as possible, what will be the benefits your department or your community will realize if the project described is funded (i.e. anticipated savings and /or efficiencies)? Is there a high benefit for the cost incurred? Are the costs reasonable? Provide justification for the budget items relating to the cost of the requested items. *3000 characters We are requesting Federal assistance to replace Tukwila Fire Department radios that are non -P -25 compliant and over 20 years old. The Tukwila Police Department will benefit from us receiving this grant by allowing them to receive their radio system several years earlier than if we had to budget for them as originally planned. The Tukwila Police Department has over 200 non -P -25 compliant portable radios. We are purchasing dual band digital P -25 portable and mobile radios. These state of the art radios are also designed to be upgradable to newer systems for up to 20 years from now. The system here is scheduled to be upgraded to all digital in 2018 so we will be ahead of the game. These radios operate in the 800 MHz and VHF bands. Our current radios operate only in the 800 MHz band. We have numerous agencies in the local area and Statewide that operate in the VHF band. We currently have only 4 VHF radios in the department. Obtaining the new dual band radios will greatly enhance our local, State, and Federal interoperability communications. By purchasing one type of portable and mobile radio there will be a money savings when new channel templates are built. Currently we have 25 templates because there are numerous radio models and software versions in our fleet. We will also ensure that the budget for maintaining and replacing radios be increased so we are not in this position 20 years from now. The vendor we use to purchase these radios is used by all departments in King County. They give us the best price available. * Section # 3 Statement of Effect: How would this award affect the daily operations of your department (i.e., describe how frequently the equipment will be used or what the benefits will provide the personnel in your department)? How would this award affect your department's ability to protect lives and property in your community? *3000 characters Firefighter safety is greatly enhanced with purchase of the new portable radios. Safety features include a larger emergency button and large knobs so you can operate them with your firefighting gloves on. When you change channels the radio "speaks" which channel you have changed to eliminating the need to look at the screen. The https: / /eservices. fema. gov /FemaFireGrant/ firegrant / jsp /fire2013 /application/print_app .j sp?... 1/27/2014 57 Application Number: EMW- 2013 -FO -02617 Page 14 of 24 noise canceling microphone cancels out noise such as chain saws, gas generators, fire engines, so all the receiving radio hears is the voice of the caller. The devices have Bluetooth earpieces for better sound quality in noisy environments. They are capable of GPS locating. Radios are upgradable to digital. Our system is slated to be digital by 2018. Adding the VHF band allows us to talk to police, fire, city, public works, State and Federal interoperable channels. This is extremely important in large statewide mobilizations, disasters, and planned events. Since it is a dual band radio it eliminates the need to have a second radio. Currently we only have 2 VHF portable and 3 VHF mobile radios so we have a very limited capability in the VHF band. If we get this grant to replace the portable radios we intend to take the 10 to 15 year old portable radios and create a backup communications cache of radios that can be used in disasters or large planned events. This cache of back up radios will have police, fire, city, public works, State and Federal interoperable channels installed so they can be used by any police, fire, public works, and emergency management agency in King County. We can issue the radios to other departments or agencies that do not have 800 MHz capabilities during disasters or at large planned events where extra radios are needed. The cache will be maintained by us and the costs for new batteries, service, and annual billing of per radio costs will be shared by all departments. There are only 2 back up radio caches in the area. One is at the Port of Seattle and the other is in Seattle. Ours would be the largest of these caches as we cover a larger area and have more agencies involved. And there would also be up to 2 DHS certified COML's (Communications Unit Leaders) both from Tukwila available to deploy with the cache. This concept of a backup cache will benefit all communities and cities in the Greater Puget Sound area. Budget Budget Object Class a. Personnel $ 0 b. Fringe Benefits $ 0 c. Travel $ 0 d.

PRESENTATIONS No presentations. II. BUSINESS AGENDA A. Fire Department Pipeline Staffing Proposal The Fire Department is seeking Council approval to create up to three pipeline positions which would allow for the recruitment, hiring and training of new employees when vacancies are known in advance, as with retirements. This would help ensure continuity of service as well as reduce the high overtime costs incurred when staff at current levels must cover vacancies. There are currently 10 Fire Department personnel eligible for retirement within the next two years, and the Police Department has successfully used this strategy to reduce overtime costs for several years. Councilmembers asked clarifying questions, including how the City will measure the financial impact of this practice. Staff indicated that measures are included in the normal budgeting processes. UNANIMOUS APPROVAL. FORWARD TO FEBRUARY 24, 2014 COMMITTEE OF THE WHOLE. B. Grant Application: 2014 FEMA Assistance to Firefighters The Fire Department is seeking Council approval to proceed with an application to FEMA for the 2014 Assistance to Firefighters Grant in the amount of $391,272.00 for replacement of radios and operating system. The current radios and system will be obsolete in five years, and the cost to replace them is approximately $412,000.00. If the grant is awarded, the City will be required to contribute $20,593.00 in matching funds, which are available in the Fire Department's equipment budget. Staff will continue to pursue this particular grant if it is not awarded in 2014. Councilmember Hougardy noted that a radio system overhaul such as this should be planned for through the budget process by use of a replacement schedule. UNANIMOUS APPROVAL. FORWARD TO FEBRUARY 24, 2014 COMMITTEE OF THE WHOLE. C. Ordinance and Resolution: False Alarm Fees Staff is seeking Council approval of an ordinance and companion resolution relating to updating the fees charged for false alarms. Police false alarm fees have not been adjusted since 1985 and fire not since 2004. Because significant City resources are required to both respond to and bill for false alarms, staff is proposing an increase to the fees to offset the costs to the City as well as to act as a deterrent. False alarm statistics in Tukwila as well as fees assessed by neighboring jurisdictions were reviewed. Under the proposal, the first two false alarms within one calendar year will not be assessed a fee, which is not a change from the current practice. The third false alarm in the year would be $150, an increase from the currently charged $25, and the fourth and subsequent false alarms would be charged $200, up from the current $50.

H0vvever, this word should remain in the ordinance. Draft resolution as presented to Finance and Safety: The last line in the fee schedule relating to "...shall not apply to single family residences" should have been removed from the draft resolution. Both of these issues have been corrected in the revised drafts. ISSUE Review current false alarm fees and approve fee increase. BACKGROUND Fees for police false alarms have not been adjusted since 1985 and fire false alarms have not been adjusted since 2004. As City resources are expended to respond to, and bill for false a|anns, an increase the fees is being proposed to help recoup City costs and also to deter the occurrence of false alarms. Respondinq to an Alarm When an alarm monitoring company receives an alert that an alarm has been tr|ggered, they call 911 to report the alarm. The standard response for police is a minimum of two officers. When they arrive at the scene, they will walk the perimeter and check doors and windows for any signs of a break-in. If nothing suspicious is located and there are no signs of a break-in, they mark the incident report as a false alarm. The average length of a response to a police false alarm is 10-20 minutes, depending on the size of the business or residence. Fire personnel are dispatched to an alarm in a similar manner with a minimum response time of 30 minutes. Response time is typically longer for fire because apparatus are usually responding from a fire station and must gear up before leaving the station. Costs to the City for responding to a false alarm include apparatus usage and personnel time spent responding to the a|arm, as well as administrative time to bill and collect payment for the false alarm. 74 INFORMATIONAL MEMO Page 2 Current False Alarm Fees False alarm fees are addressed in the Tukwila Municipal Code Chapter 8.08 False Alarms and Chapter 16.18 International Fire Code. The City currently charges false alarm fees when the City receives or responds to more than two false alarms of fire, intrusion, crime or other safety- related emergency at any single place of business, ho0e, vehicle or other premise or place within any calendar year. There is no charge for the first two false alarms for both police and fire. The third and subsequent police false alarms result in a fine of $25.00 each. After the third fire false a|arnn, the fee is $50.00 per false alarm. The number of false alarms is calculated by calendar year. As mentioned previously, fees for police false alarms have not been adjusted since 1985 and fire false alarms have not been adjusted since 2004. While 8.08.040 states that failure to make payment for a false alarm in a timely manner constitutes a civil infracti0n, this has not been enforced. DISCUSSION False Alarm Statistics for the City The table below represents the number of false alarms for both police and fire for the last three complete calendar years. A large percentage of false alarms are not billable because they are either the first or second false alarm in a calendar year. Police Year 2012 Total # of false alarms 872 of billa false alarms Amount billed 255 $6,375 2011 810 229 $5,725 2010 837 267 $6,675 Fire Year`� Total # of false alarms # of billable false alarms Amount billed 2012 552 17 $600 2011 632 25 $900 2010 666 21 $800 Potential Impact for lncreasinq False Alarm Fees Should the City's false alarm experience under the increased fee structure mirror the experience before the inoraase, additional revenue would be generated. Should the occurrence of false alarms decrease under the increased fee structuna, response and billing cost savings would be realized. Comparison of Surroundinq Jurisdiction False Alarm Fees The table below lists several surrounding jurisdictions and the fees they charge for false alarms. The table does not include information on alarm registration feeS, alarm renewal faen, or other action that may be taken by the jurisdiction responding to a false alarm.

Language regarding the actual fees charged will be removed from the Code and set by Resolution. By setting the fees by Resolution rather than in the Code it3e|f, it will be easier to update the fees on a regular basis. The proposed and current fee schedule for false ala s follows: False Alarm Proposed Fee Current Fire Fee Current Police Fee First Second Third Fourth and Subsequent $0 $0 $150 $200 0 O 25 50 O U 25 25 The recommended fee structure will encourage alarm owners to take more steps to reduce the number of false alarms and keep the rates comparable with surrounding jurisdictions. Fees incurred in the new schedule will help to offset costs of responding to recurring false alarms. By keeping the fees limited to two n]teS, the billing process will continue to be straight-forward and easy to manage. We are also recommending that the civil infraction for failing to make timely payment for false alarms be removed from the Code as this part of the Code is not currently being enforced. Non- payment is pursued by the City's collection agency and business licenses are withheld for businesses with unpaid false alarm and other fees providing a payment incentive. Attached is an ordinance to amend 8.08.040 that will remove the false alarm fees from the TMC. Also attached is a resolution to set the new fee schedule for false alarms. Both the ordinance and the resolution should take effect at the same time. TMC 16.16.080 will be amended when Fire amends 16.16 International Fire Code. RECOMMENDATION Council is being asked to approve the Ordinance and Resolution. This item is scheduled for the February 24, 2014 Committee of the Whole and March 3, 2014 Regular Council Meeting.

PRESENTATIONS No presentations. M. BUSINESS AGENDA A. Fire Department Pipeline Staffing Proposal The Fire Department is seeking Council approval to create up to three pipeline positions which would allow for the recruitment, hiring and training of new employees when vacancies are known in advance. as with retirements. This would help ensure continuity of service as well as reduce the high overtime costs incurred when staff at current levels must cover vacancies. There are currently 10 Fire Department personnel eligible for retirement within the next two yearS, and the Police Department has successfully used this strategy to reduce overtime costs for several years. Councilmembers asked clarifying queStiOns, including how the City will measure the financial impact of this practice. Staff indicated that measures are included in the normal budgeting processes. UNANIMOUS APPROVAL. FORWARD TO FEBRUARY 24, 2014 COMMITTEE OF THE WHOLE. B. Grant Application: 2014 FEMA Assistance to Firefighters The Fire Department is seeking Council approval to proceed with an application to FEMA for the 2014 Assistance to Firefighters Grant in the amount of $391.272.00 for replacement of radios and operating system. The current radios and system will be obsolete in five years, and the cost to replace them is approximately $412.000.00. If the grant is awarded, the City will be required to contribute $20'583.00 in matching fundS, which are available in the Fire Department's equipment budget. Staff will continue to pursue this particular grant if it is not awarded in 2014. Councilmember Hougardy noted that a radio system overhaul such as this should be planned for through the budget process by use of a replacement schedule. UNANIMOUS APPROVAL. FORWARD TO FEBRUARY 24, 2014 COMMITTEE OF THE WHOLE. C. Ordinance and Resolution: False Alarm Fees Staff is seeking Council approval of an ordinance and companion resolution relating to updating the fees charged for false alarms. Police false alarm fees have not been adjusted since 1985 and fire not since 2004. Because significant City resources are required to both respond to and bill for false a|orrns, staff is proposing an increase to the fees to offset the costs to the City as well as to act as a deterrent. False alarm statistics in Tukwila as well as fees assessed by neighboring jurisdictions were reviewed. Under the proposa|, the first two false alarms within one calendar year will not be assessed a fee, which is not a change from the current practice. The third false alarm in the year would be $150. an increase from the currently charged $25, and the fourth and subsequent false alarms would be charged $200. up from the current $50. The fees Finance & Safety Committee Minutes February 19,2014- Page 2 would be the same for police and fire responses, and the same for residential and commercial properties. This will keep the billing process streamlined and manageable. Finance staff provided additional statistics showing that just 5% of the 814 billable false alarms during 2010- 2012 were from residences, and 587 for both residential and non-residential were repeat offenders (two or more bills). Staff is also recommending amending the Code to remove the civil infraction for failing to make timely payment of false alarms fees. This is not currently enforced, as nonpayment is pursued by the City's collection agency and business licenses are withheld for businesses with outstanding fees. FiO8||y, the proposed ordinance would remove the fees from the Code and the companion resolution would adopt them instead. This is part of a City-wide effort to remove various fees from the Code. If approved by the Council, information about the new fee schedule will be communicated to the public starting with an article in the Hazelnut. UNANIMOUS APPROVAL. FORWARD TO FEBRUARY 24, 2014 COMMITTEE OF THE WHOLE. Q. Finance and Safety Committee 2014 Work Plan Committee members and staff reviewed the preliminary 2014 Committee Work Plan, The plan lists anticipated or tentative items that will be reviewed by the Committee this year, and the plan itself will be reviewed periodically. Committee Chair Seal noted that there will be further discussion ahead regarding any specific requests from Councilmembers. INFORMATION ONLY. E.
