an MP[) capital asset on the City's audited financial statements beQinningwiththe2011 CAFR.

information regarding the MPD can be found throughout the document.
The Intergovernmental Transfer Agreement is a final housekeeping item that needs to be
approved by both the City of Tukwila and the MPD.
It was drafted by the City's attorney and presented on April 23, 2014 to the MP[} Board of
Commissioners for their review. During the discussion, a couple of changes were requested.
Revisions include changing the title of the agreement from Facility Use and Indemnification
Agreement to Intergovernmental Use and Indemnification Agreement and changing section 3.1
as follows:
3.1 The TPMPD has inspected and knows the condition of the
Property and agrees to accept the Property in AS IS cOnditiOn, and to
assume full and complete responsibility for all OpeGations, nn8intenanDe,
repair5, improvements of, and provision of recreational services at the
Property.

SUBJECT: Landmark Preservation Services
ISSUE
Modifications to the p !nterlocal Agreement (ILA) with King County for Landmark
Services in the City.
BACKGROUND
On November 5, 2012, the City Council authorized the Mayor to sign an ILA with King County
for historical preservation services. As was discussed at the time, City staf 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 transmitted back to the City, with changes
made by the King County Council. These changes were made without consulting City staff.
Additionally, on March 3, 2014, the City Council amended the City's Landmark Ordinance to
allow non-city owned property to qualify for landmark designation. This change to the Ordinance
also requires a minor change to the ILA.
DISCUSSION
Attached to this memo is a copy of a signed ILA tha ref!ects the changes proposed by King
County and the changes necessitated by the City's amendment to the Landmark Ordinance.
These changes are minor and do not substantively modify the ILA. Therefore the Council
President and the Chair of the Community Affairs and Parks Committee have agreed to put the
updated ILA on the July 7, 2014 consent agenda.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
None at this time.
RECOMMENDATION
Authorize the Mayor to sign the ILA with King County.

1 Hague on, Mayor
FROM: Jack Pace, Director
BY: Brandon Mites, Senior Planner
DATE: February 3, 2014
SUBJECT: Protection and Preservation of Landmarks in the City of Tukwila
ISSUE
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 800iety,
which hoped to secure funding from 4Culture to complete work to Old City Hall. {}|d City Hall
would need to be deemed a Tukwila Landmark in order to quaHty 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 41St Ave South. The brick
on the |odQe, 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;
hovvever, in order to possibly qualify for the funding the site must be designated as a Tukwila
Landmark. As discussed abovo, the site cannot qualify as a Tukwila Landmark because the site
is not owned by the City.
DISCUSSION
Staif 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 wou!d 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 Councfl. 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 Hmits King County historical preservation work
on properties owned by the City. This presents issues with staff's current proposal to allow non'
city owned properties to qualify for Landmark status.
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 |L4, staff will bring those back to the Committee as quickly as
possible.

• Financial Advisor: The City has engaged the services of financial advisor Susan
Musselman of Public Financial Management, Inc. (PFM) to provide assistance in
selecting the optimal financing structure for the urban renewal property acquisitions
and other capital project financing contemplated for 2014 and the next biennium.
Additionally, PFM will provide guidance and assistance in developing debt policies,
presenting information to the City Council and to the credit rating agencies.
• Invasive Knotweed Workshop: DCD hosted a free workshop for Tukwila property
owners presented by the King County Noxious Weed Program. Knotweed has
become a serious problem on the river, its tributaries and other areas in the city. Over
20 Tukwila property owners attended (as well as a few from other cities) to learn
about knotweed and how to control it.
• Tukwila Pond Wetland Buffer Volunteer Work Party: DCD staff led a work party to
maintain the Tukwila Pond Wetland Buffer site (along Andover Park West, south of
Strander Blvd). Children and parents (15 volunteers in total) from the Home School
Stewardship Squad assisted in digging out re- sprouting blackberry and removing a non-
native hawthorn tree. This site was restored by the City and volunteers in 2008 and
2009, using a grant obtained from King County to purchase plants and supplies
(including the split rail fence), in a partnership with employees from Macy's Warehouse.
• TIB Business Outreach: DCD is partnering with Futurewise to survey businesses in the
TIB corridor about their priorities and issues. This will inform the Comprehensive Plan
update of the TIB Element and help the City determine what sorts of policies or
programs would help support our small businesses. Language services will be provided.
• Duwamish Sediment: On June 17, DCD staff attended a celebration of the completion
of off - channel habitat and shoreline restoration by Boeing as part of the Duwamish
Sediment Other settlement agreement with EPA and the National Resource Trustees

• Comprehensive Plan Update: The Planning Commission (PC) held a work session and
public hearing on the Parks, Recreation and Open Space; Roles and Responsibilities;
and Community Image and Identity Elements of the Comprehensive Plan. Two of the
liaisons from the Community Connectors program attended and Spanish interpretation
was provided. The key policy issues discussed were whether the City should work to
create stronger neighborhood identities or instead focus on strengthening a city -wide
Tukwila identity, whether to mention our immigrant and refugee populations or just
include language like diverse or underrepresented, and whether maintaining a "small
town character" is desirable given the changes taking place in Tukwila. The PC took
action to forward their recommendations on all three elements to the City Council. The
