A copy of the April 7, 2014 informational memorandum is attached (Attachment 1) along with a spreadsheet of goals and objectives that was presented at that meeting (Attachment 2) DISCUSSION Since April we have taken the following actions: • Reassigned current administrative support staff (Hoa Mai) to Acting Code Enforcement Officer to concentrate on the case backlog and abatement cases. • Hired a temporary administrative support staff (Marti May - Birge). The additional staffing has allowed us to not only tackle the backlog and abatement cases, but has increased our ability to respond to current complaints and proactively address certain issues. As a comparison, the table below shows annual statistics for the past three years. 2014 stats are through August 15, 2014. Year Cases Opened Cases Closed 2011 366 305 2012 400 361 2013 256 240 2014 to date 359 420 1 2 INFORMATIONAL MEMO Page 2 • Identified 54 residential properties which are vacant but not subject to current complaints. These properties will be monitored to ensure they are secured and maintained. • Identified 42 residential properties as subject to future abatement actions. Since June 2014, staff has been able to close 7 of these potential abatement cases. Staff is currently actively working on 13 abatement cases, which have been the subject of frequent citizen complaints, illegal activities, life- safety issues and other violations. Many of these properties are in stages of foreclosure or owners are unresponsive or can't be located. Abatement actions in these cases will take court orders, notification by posting and publishing and an extended timeline for completion. • Planned a `Tukwila Clean and Green" umbrella initiative to promote neighborhood cleanup through multiple community events and services: free junk vehicle removal referrals, promoting the Community Garage Sale (August), bulky item collection event (in September) (Attachment 3) • Increased proactive and reactive code enforcement efforts along the Tukwila International Boulevard corridor between Military Road S and 42nd Ave S by addressing quality of life concerns for the residents. These efforts include starting abatement actions against some long- standing unresolved code violations, prioritizing citizen complaints for properties within this area, and proactively inspecting for debris, sign code, business licensing and parking violations. • Established a cooperative effort with the City of Seatac Code Enforcement staff to address particular concerns along our common border in the area of Military Road/Tukwila International Blvd. • Reinstated a "Code Enforcement Only" free dump pass program as an incentive to owners in clearing their property of debris. These are controlled and managed by Code Enforcement and distributed to owners who demonstrate a willingness to comply but who may be economically challenged and need assistance. • Evaluated and implemented process improvements to standardize and reduce case processing times and make better use of the Trakit permit tracking system investment installed late last year. Code Enforcement staff is scheduled to participate in LEAN training in August and September to assist with additional process improvements. • Gave a tour to CAP members showing some current Tukwila Code Enforcement properties and the challenges we face in obtaining compliance. (Attachment 4) FINANCIAL IMPACT Extra labor costs associated with the temporary admin support, additional temporary code enforcement officer, dump passes, legal costs for abatements. RECOMMENDATION Information Only. Code Enforcement enhancements will be discussed as part of the 2015 -16 budget process. W: \Code Enforce \Code Enforcement Documents \CAP- COW-CC \CAP -09 -09 -14 memo- 3.doc.docx INFORMATIONAL MEMO Page 3 Residential Rental Licensing and Inspection Program BACKGROUND The Residential Rental Licensing and Inspection Program began January 1, 2011. The program was developed as a direct result of the condemnation of Pacific Court Apartments in 2005 and the required relocation of the 40 families living there. In adopting the ordinance, we acknowledged the effect substandard housing has on our community as a whole as well as the families occupying the units. There are 637 properties currently licensed in the City, with about 3760 dwelling units. Since roughly 60% of our housing units are rentals, this program affects a majority of our residents. The program will be completing Zone 4 inspections this year. With the end of the 4 -year cycle, now is the time to evaluate the program for any needed adjustments or changes. A copy of the Zone map is attached as Attachment 5. DISCUSSION Inspections have identified and corrected more than 300 life- safety violations in rental units since inception, including lack of adequate emergency egress, lack of heat, failed plumbing, lack of required smoke detectors /carbon monoxide detectors, and other conditions that render the unit unfit for occupancy. In some cases, tenants have been relocated while repairs are completed. Staff is currently working with a multi - family property owner under a Voluntary Correction Agreement to improve all 40 of his units over the course of the next 12 months. This is a direct result of the required rental inspections and the subsequent condemnation of three units due to failed plumbing, massive mold, and insect infestations. The complex is occupied by non - English speaking immigrants, unaware of Landlord- Tenant laws or how to complain. These conditions would not have come to light without the Residential Rental Licensing and Inspection program. Though controversial in the beginning, the program has been met with cooperation and even some appreciation by the landlords as we have moved through the inspection zones. Landlords appreciate the even - handedness of the inspections and the level playing field it creates among rental properties. Tenants have expressed appreciation, as well, realizing that the City has their well -being and safety in mind. There have been no formal objections brought to staff, the mayor or the City Council regarding the licensing program since 2010. In addition to ensuring that our residents are living in safe and healthy rental units, the program has improved relationships overall with landlords. The program provides us with updated and current contact information, puts a "face" to the City- Landlord relationship, and provides us with an opportunity to educate both tenants and landlords about life- safety requirements. There has been a reduction in calls from tenants complaining about conditions in their rental units. With up to date contact information, many of the complaints can be resolved with an email or telephone call to the landlord. The inspection checklist developed for this program draws from the 2012 International Property Maintenance Code (the same code used for general Code Enforcement property complaints). Each inspection item is given a point value. A unit fails an inspection when the total number of points exceeds 25. There are certain "automatic failure" items (25 points), such as no heat, no water, lack of smoke detectors and carbon monoxide detectors, and inadequate emergency egress. Other items are valued at 1, 2 or 3 points. If a unit fails the initial inspection, the owner is given 30 days to make the required repairs and obtain a re- inspection of the unit. If the unit fails the second inspection, the unit is declared "Unfit for Occupancy" and the tenants are W: \Code Enforce \Code Enforcement Documents \CAP- COW-CC \CAP -09 -09 -14 memo- 3.doc.docx 3 4 INFORMATIONAL MEMO Page 4 required to move. The unit must remain vacant until it passes the rental inspection. A copy of the checklist is attached as Attachment 6. The recent switch from Permits Plus to Trakit permitting system has given us the opportunity to evaluate our processes and implement improvements and efficiencies. The increased reporting capacity of Trakitwill provide us with a robust assessment of our accomplishments. There are challenges still with the new system, particularly with the addressing database, but overall the new system's increased capabilities will be helpful as we all become even more familiar with the program. Due to the switchover in the "middle" of the rental inspection cycle, we do not yet have accurate numbers of inspection results, such as total number of inspections completed over all four inspection zones, how many properties utilized private inspectors, how many are occupied by Section 8 clients, how many initial "failures ", etc. As we input the "old" data, we will be able to capture this information in the future. Proposed management changes: • Utilizing Trakit to provide us with more useful data regarding our residential rental properties. • Expanding Trakit to allow online license renewal and inspection scheduling for rentals. • Utilizing building inspectors for rental inspections as their workload permits. Proposed ordinance amendments to the program include: • Requiring owners of 5+ units to utilize only private inspectors for their required inspections. • Extending the timeline for future required inspections from 4 years to 8 years if the property is a member in good standing of the Crime -Free Rental Housing program operated by Tukwila Police Department. • Increasing fees for both the annual license and for inspections performed by the City. We will return later in the Fall with code amendments on these changes. FINANCIAL IMPACT N/A RECOMMENDATION Information only. Staff will return in the Fall with code amendments for changes to the rental licensing program. ATTACHMENTS 1.

Residential Rental Inspection Checklist W: \Code Enforce \Code Enforcement Documents \CAP- COW-CC \CAP -09 -09 -14 memo- 3.doc.docx TO: City of Tukwila Jim Haggerton, Mayor INFORMATIONAL MEMORANDUM Mayor Haggerton Committee of the Whole FROM: Jack Pace, Community Development Director DATE: April 7, 2010 SUBJECT: Residential Rental Housing Licensing and Inspection Draft Ordinance ISSUE Should the City require a residential rental business license and mandatory inspection for all rental dwelling units? BACKGROUND As part of 2008 program goals, the City Council asked that we develop a proposal for a rental housing inspection program. Staff presented the draft ordinance, draft fee resolution and an overview of this program to Community Affairs and Parks Committee on March 22, 2010. The committee forwarded this item to the full council and has recommended approval. The purpose of any rental housing and inspection program is to ensure that our citizens are living in units that are safe and healthy. Code Enforcement staff regularly investigates complaints from tenants about conditions in their units. In many cases, the tenants have previously notified their landlords, but the violations remain unrepaired. We provide information to tenants on effective ways to complain, and we work with the landlords to respond more appropriately. We are careful to follow the State Landlord- Tenant laws, and require tenants and landlords to do the same. Staff believes that a proactive and on -going inspection program would prevent many substandard conditions BEFORE tenants occupy the units. By requiring inspections of all units, the tenant no longer is put in the middle or subject to threats of eviction or other forms of harassment for notifying code enforcement about problems with their units. Many of our citizens are new immigrants and are unfamiliar with the requirements and protections of the Landlord- Tenant laws. Code Enforcement staff will no longer be required to wait for a complaint to be filed before action can be taken. City of Pasco, currently the only city in the state with a mandatory inspection program, reports significant improvement in their rental housing stock over the 10 years of their program. Improved housing can also spur economic development, lower crime, increase property values, and generally improve the quality of life for all our citizens. According to the 2004 "City of Tukwila Housing Needs Assessment & Condition Survey": • 60% of Tukwila households live in rental housing • 40% of renter - occupied housing units are rated as "needs maintenance ", "deteriorated ", or "dilapidated" • 65% of Tukwila's housing stock overall is 40 -50 years old or older ATTACHMENT 1 5 Committee of the Whole Residential Rental Licensing and Inspection Program April 12, 2010 Page 2 Please note that the ordinance reviewed by CAP underwent a few minor revisions after the CAP meeting. A "red - lined" version was provided to the committee members prior to this meeting. The draft ordinance in this packet shows where the changes were made. DISCUSSION Staff has been working on this program for at least four years. We have researched programs in other cities and other states to evaluate and glean the successes. The ordinance before you tonight represents this work. At a briefing before the Community Affairs and Parks Committee in December 2009, staff indicated that we would be bringing the matter to the Council by second or third quarter 2010. However, in late December 2009, staff Teamed of pending state legislation proposed by the Washington Rental Housing Industry Coalition (WRHIC) which would place severe limits on rental housing inspection programs. Staff actively participated in Joint discussions with AWC, WRHIC and the sponsoring legislators in an effort to achieve agreement on the bill language. In the end, AWC, Tukwila, and other cities were unable to support the bill before the legislature. Staff testified at a Senate hearing in opposition to the bill. Despite our efforts, the bill was adopted and signed by the Govemor March 19, 2010, becoming effective June 10, 2010. The bill does contain language which specifically exempts any municipality which has adopted an ordinance as of the effective date of the bill (by June 10). It also specifically permits such adopted ordinances to be amended. Since Tukwila has been actively working on a residential rental housing licensing and inspection program for quite some time, staff felt it was appropriate and necessary to get this ordinance before the Council for their consideration before the effective date of the new legislation. The City's ordinance under consideration today is one that would: • Require all rental unit owners to obtain an annual residential rental business license • Require an inspection of all units every fifth year • Set fees which would cover the costs of this program Implementation Schedule and Phased Roll Out: There are approximately 4000 rental dwelling units in the City of Tukwila. Implementing a broad program of licensing and inspections will require that we roll out in phases. Our program would: • Require all residential rental property owners to obtain an annual residential rental business license beginning January 1, 2011. • Require all residential rental units to be inspected every fifth year, rolled out in phases over the next three years. The remainder of 2010 will be spent developing the forms, implementing the software improvements, educating landlords and tenants about the program, and establishing the process. W:12010 InfoMemos1Rental Licensing4- 12- 10.doc 6 Committee of the Whole Residential Rental Licensing and Inspection Program April 12, 2010 Page 3 Process Details: • All rental property owners must apply for and obtain an annual residential rental business license. • All units must pass an inspection in order to obtain the business license. • Initially, the City will issue a "provisional license" with a deadline for submitting the inspection certificate. The provisional license will be valid for the calendar year issued. The deadlines for obtaining the initial inspections are: Property Type Inspection Deadline 5+ units per property December 31, 2011 2 -4 units per property and rental condos December 31, 2012 Single family + ADUs December 31, 2013 • All owners must submit an "Inspection Certificate" signed and dated by the inspector showing the inspection results for each unit by the above deadline. • A "Certificate of Compliance" will be issued by the City for units achieving a score of less than 25 on the inspection certificate. • The certificate of compliance is valid for four calendar years. A copy will be retained in the City Code Enforcement office along with the inspection certificate. • With a valid certificate of compliance, the owner must only renew their annual residential rental business license. • The Owner must submit a new inspection certificate before the expiration of the previous one (every 5th year). • Failure to obtain a certificate of compliance will result in the City declaring the unit Unfit for Occupancy. Tenants, if any, must vacate the unit. • The unit cannot be legally occupied until the repairs are completed, an inspection certificate submitted, and a certificate of compliance and residential rental business license for that unit is issued. Inspection Details: We are proposing an inspection checklist that is based on the standards in the International Property Maintenance Code (IPMC) which the City adopted in 2004 as its housing code. Inspectors will be evaluating the exterior property conditions (debris accumulation, junk vehicles), exterior structural elements (foundation, exterior walls, roof, balconies, railings, etc.), and interior conditions (electrical and plumbing systems, windows and doors, hot/cold water service, heat, emergency egress and other items). We have assigned a point value to the inspection items reflecting the severity of the violation. In determining the value of each inspection item, we referred to the IPMC section regarding unsafe structures and equipment for guidance. Violations of these standards pose a life- safety risk and constitute an automatic failure of the inspection ( "25" points). These include such things as no permanent source of heat, no water, blocked emergency egress, lack of a kitchen or bathroom, lack of electrical service, or electrical hazards, etc. Violations which are less severe, but still affect the overall quality of the housing are given a lower point value ("1", "2 ", or "3 "). These items include such things as broken windows, mold, W:12010InfoMemoslRental Ucensing4- 12- 10.doc 7 Committee of the Whole Residential Rental Licensing and Inspection Program April 12, 2010 Page 4 inadequate door locks, inadequate ventilation, lack of address numbers, loose handrails, debris accumulation, etc. Inspections in general: • Landlords have the option of using city inspectors or hiring a private inspector who meets certain qualifications. Private inspectors must be pre- approved by the City. • Units which accrue fewer than 25 points on their inspection certificate pass the inspection. The City will then issue a "Certificate of Compliance" for that unit along with the residential rental business license. • The certificate of compliance is valid for four calendar years from the date it is issued by the City. All certificates of compliance will expire on December 31 four calendar years after issuance, to coincide with the expiration date of the annual business licenses. • Units which accrue 25 points or more on their inspection certificate will be required to be repaired by the owner. • The owner has 30 days to make the necessary repairs and request a re- inspection. • Under most conditions, during the 30-day repair period, the unit may continue to be occupied. • Upon re- inspection, if unit achieves a score of Tess than 25, the certificate of compliance and the residential rental business license for that unit is issued. Re- inspections require additional per -unit inspection fees. • If the unit fails the second inspection, the certificate of compliance will not be issued. The unit will be posted "Unfit for Occupancy ". It will not be available for rent until the repairs are completed and pass inspection. • If a failed unit is occupied, the tenant will be required to move and may be eligible for Relocation Assistance under TMC 8.46. A copy of the inspection checklist will be included with the application form to allow landlords to prepare for the inspection. It will also be available for download from the City's website, along with the application form and other information about the program. The landlord is required to make the necessary repairs in order to achieve a "score" of less than 25 on the inspection checklist. Although certain items are deemed an automatic failure, it is also possible to "fail" the inspection by the accumulation of 25- points worth of smaller items. In either event, the score must be below 25 in order to receive the certificate of compliance and the residential rental business license for that unit. Costs: The anticipated cost of this program will include supplies and staff for inspecting, issuing, and tracking residential rental business licenses. We expect that the inspections will take approximately 30 minutes to complete. The inspections will either be performed by private inspectors hired by the landlord, or current inspector staff (building inspectors and code enforcement officers), with city- contracted inspectors used to fill in on an as- needed basis. Administrative support will need to be increased by .50 fte to manage the administrative tasks and scheduling. Phasing the roll out over three years will naturally spread out the inspection schedule. W:12010 InfoMemoslRental L sing4- 12- 10.doc 8 Committee of the Whole Residential Rental Licensing and Inspection Program April 12, 2010 Page 5 Fees: Currently owners of complexes with more than four units pay an annual business license fee of $100.00. Under our proposal, all rental property owners will need to obtain an annual residential rental business license (in lieu of the regular business license) and pay an annual fee: • $ 50.00 (1 -4 units on a property, including rental condominiums) • $100.00 (5 or more units on a property) In addition to the annual residential rental business license fee, there will be a per -unit inspection fee of $35.00. The inspection fee is due and payable: • Only on the years that an inspection is due • Only if the landlord chooses a City Inspector The cost of the inspections amounts to less than $.75 per unit per month over the four -year period. Costs for any required repairs cannot be anticipated. Enforcement: For this program to be effective there must be consequences for violations. In some cases, units will fail inspections and the repairs will not be completed. In that case, the certificate of compliance and the residential rental business license for that unit will not be issued. The unit will be posted "Unfit for Occupancy," and the unfit units may not be occupied until the repairs are completed, inspected and passed. If a unit fails the second inspection, the City will issue a Notice of Non - Issuance of Certificate of compliance and will revoke or not issue the residential rental business license for that unit. The notice of non - issuance will contain appeal provisions. Appeals will be heard by the Tukwila Hearing Examiner. If the unfit unit is occupied tenants may be eligible for Relocation Assistance (TMC 8.46).
