SUBJECT: Satellite Visitor Center
ISSUE
Seattle Southside Visitor Services (SSVS) requests approval to extend the lease space at
Westfield Southcenter to operate the satellite visitor center (VC).
BACKGROUND
In October of 2013, the City Council authorized SSVS to begin operating a satellite VC in a
kiosk at Westfield Southcenter Mall. The lease term for the kiosk was one year and the project
was intended to be a pilot p ject. The lease is scheduled to terminate at the end of September
2014. Staff is requesting to continue the pilot project and to extend the |ease until June 50.
2015. On July 1, 2015 it is anticipated that the new Seattle Southside Regional Tourism
Authority will take over all operations of the Visitor Center.
It costs the City nearly $10,000 a month to operate the VC, The lease from Westfield is a
nominal $1 per year. The funding comes from lodging tax, not the City's general fund. Council
authorization is needed to allow the Mayor to enter into a new lease agreement that would
extend the lease until June 30, 2015. SSVS has adequate unused funds to cover the $30,000
cost in operating the VC through 2014. The Mayor's proposed 2015/16 budget recommends
providing lodging tax funding to fund the VC until June 30, 2015. It is anticipated that by July 1,
2015 that the Seattle Southside Regional Tourism Authority (SSRTA) will be in a position to
assume operations of the VC, The Mayor's proposed budget does not provide any funding to
operate the VC beyond June 30, 2015. If SSRTA is not in a position to assume operations of the
VC on July 1, 2015 the City will either need to cease operations of the VC or request that the
City Council provide additional lodging tax funding.
{)n/\ugust27.2O14.theChvofTukvv|o'aLodgingToxAdvsoryConlnnkteo(LTAC)
recommended that the City continue operating and funding the VC until June 30, 2015.
DISCUSSION
This location has proven to be very beneficial to our traveling guests while increasing SSVS's
ability to market its local tourism businesses directly to the traveling public. The VC connects
hotel guests' shuttle riders with an onsite concierge service that provide assistance for their
travel related needs. It also serves airport layover travelers, tour groups, independent leisure
travelers as well as area residents looking for assistance for visiting family and friends.

INFORMATIONAL MEMO
Page 2
Since this was a pilot project, SSVS staff has been tracking several performance measures to
evaluate the performance of the VC.
The following are some key data collected by staff:
1. Staffing the satellite VC requires 2.75 FTEs. Because this is a pilot project all VC staff
members are temporary employees hired through a staffing agency. All SSVS VC staff
members are crossed trained to work both VC locations (SeaTac and Westfield) and
have regularly scheduled shifts at both locations. Staffing hours were increased to
provide for more crossovers between shifts permitting staff to take breaks without
leaving the desk unstaffed.
2. Year to date the VC consistently fields over 4,000 questions monthly of which 1.500 or
more are defined as visitor inquiries and 2,500 are mall related questions. The average
cost per visitor inquiry is $7 per inquiry. SSVS focuses on increasing customer
satisfaction while continually working to reduce cost. Staff emphasizes learning and
adaptation as important to achieving this success. In March, all VC staff went through a
four week customer service and sales training program. Since then the number of
admission tickets sold and reservations booked have increased significantly. For
example, City Pass sales are up 104% second quarter amounting to $1,280 in
commission. In general, commission on ticket sales average 10% of the ticket cost.
Over time the commission on ticket sales will help to offset some of the staffing cost and
reduce the costs per visitor inquiry while providing enhanced guest services.
With Metro's Rapid Ride line now connecting Westfield Southcenter to Sound Transit
Link Light Rail, Sea-Tac International Airport and other connecting pnints, the VC will
begin selling Orca cards and providing a reloading station for current Orca card holders.
SSVS will receive a $1 processing fee for each Orca card sold. This will help reduce
operating costs.
4. Staff is working with mall management to improve signage to more clearly explain the
services offered at the VC. Reducing mall related questions overtime will improve the
VC's R[}i free upVC staff time to work on social media and other special projects and
improve job satisfaction.
The Seattle Southside Tourism Promotion Area Steering Committee is a self-selected group of
hoteliers in SeaTac and Tukwila who represent hotels with 90 or more rooms and who have
organized to support formation of a tourism promotion area (TPA). On April, 11, 2013 the six
member committee voted unanimously to support the satellite VC and is willing to assume all
costs and operations of the satellite VC once the TPA and a public development authority
(SSRTA) are operating and organizationally ready. SSRTA should be ready to assume
operations no later than July 1, 2015. The draft lease allows the City to terminate the lease with
3O'day'snntice.thusprovidingf|exibi|ityintheeventthatGGRTAinab|etoassunneuperations
earlier than July 1, 2015.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
The total cost to operate the VC until June 30, 2015 is $90,000. SSVS has $30,000 dollars in
unspent funds within its 2014 Council approved budget that will be used to operate the VC
through the end of the year. Therefore, there is no additional budget request for this item
VV:12014 Info Memos-Council1Westfield VC Memo Aug 2014.doc
INFORMATIONAL MEMO
Page 3
needed in 2014. The Mayor's proposed 2015/16 budget will include $60,000 in lodging tax funds
to operate the VC until July 1, 2015. No general funds are proposed to be used to operate the
VC. If the SSRTA is unable to assume operations on July 1, 2015 the City will either have to
cease operations of the VC or request that additional lodging tax funds are allocated to support
its operations.
RECOMMENDATION
Council is being asked to authorize the Mayor to sign the lease.
The Finance and Safety Committee is being asked to forward this item to the Committee of the
Whole meeting for discussion on September 22, 2014 and then forward it to the Consent
Agenda of the Special Meeting that same evening to ensure approval prior to the termination
date of the current lease (9/30/14).

or proceeding shall reimburse the prevailing party for the reasonable expenses of attorney's fees and all costs and
disbursements incurred therein by the prevailing party, including, without limitation, any such attorney's fees, costs or
disbursements incurred on any appeal from such action or proceeding. The prevailing party shall recover all such
attorney's fees, costs or disbursements as costs taxable by the court in the action or proceeding itself without the
necessity for a cross - action by the prevailing party. In addition to the foregoing award of attorney's fees, costs and
disbursements to the prevailing party, the prevailing party shall be entitled to its attorney's fees, costs and
disbursements in any post judgment proceedings to collect or enforce the judgment. This provision is separate and
several and shall survive the termination of this Lease, and shall survive the entry of any judgment, and shall not
merge, or be deemed to have merged, into any judgment. Further, if Lessor employs an attorney or seeks legal advice
in connection with any breach of this Lease by Lessee, or any insolvency proceeding commenced by or against Lessee,
all such legal costs incurred shall be payable by Lessee. Such legal costs shall include, without limitation, review of
any and all notices, schedules, or petitions concerning the Lessee, attendance at creditors' meetings, negotiations with
debtor or debtor's counsel, preparation and filing of any and all notices, motions, proofs of claim, objections, or any
other pleadings on behalf of Lessor in any hearing regarding any matters of any nature in which the Lessor believes its
rights may be affected. For purposes of this Lease, the term "attorneys' fees" or "attorneys' fees and costs" shall
mean the fees and expenses of counsel to the parties hereto, which may include printing, photostating, duplicating and
other expenses, air freight charges, and fees billed for law clerks, paralegals and other persons not admitted to the bar
but performing services under the supervision of an attorney.
22. No Waiver by Lessor. The waiver by Lessor of any breach of any term, covenant or condition
contained in this Lease shall not be deemed a waiver of such term, covenant, or condition of any subsequent breach
thereof, or of any other term, covenant, or condition contained in this Lease. Lessor's consent to or approval of any
act by Lessee requiring Lessor's consent or approval shall not be deemed to waive or render unnecessary Lessor's
consent to or approval of any subsequent similar act by Lessee. Lessor's subsequent acceptance of partial or full rent
or performance by Lessee shall not be deemed to be an accord and satisfaction or a waiver of any preceding breach by
Lessee of any term, covenant or condition of this Lease, or of any right of Lessor to a forfeiture of this Lease by reason
of such breach, regardless of Lessor's knowledge of such preceding breach at the time of Lessor's acceptance. No
term, covenant or condition of this Lease shall be deemed to have been waived by Lessor unless such waiver is in
writing and executed by Lessor.

U. BUSINESS AGENDA
A. Lease Agreement: Visitor Information Center ot Westfield Southcenter
Staff is seeking Council approval for the Mayor to sign a lease renewal with Westfield
Southcenter for the continued operation of the satellite visitor center through June 30, 2015.
The visitor center began operation in October 2013 and has proven to be a beneficial location
to travelers and for Seattle Southside Visitor Services. Operation of the visitor center costs
around $10.000 per m0nth, funding for which comes from lodging tax for the duration of the
lease. The lease itself costs a nominal $1 per year. UNANIMOUS APPROVAL. FORWARD
TO SEPTEMBER 22, 2014 COMMITTEE OF THE WHOLE AND SPECIAL MEETING
CONSENT AGENDA.
B. Agreement: Shuttle Services for Seattle Southside Visitor Services
Staff is seeking Council approval to reenter into a contract with Miller Schmer, Inc., (doing
business as "Seattle Express") to provide regularly scheduled shuttle services from hotels in the
City of SeaTac to Westfield Southcenter in Tukwila at a rate of $10.000 per month. Seattle
Southside Visitor Services (SSVS) has been providing this free shuttle service to hotel guests
for over 13 years. As the administrator of 88VS. Tukwila contracts the services with Seattle
Express and the City of SeaTac lodging tax fund reimburses 100% of the cost. Seattle Express
delivered more than 28.000 individuals to Westfield Southcenter in 2015. resulting in an
estimated $4.511.900 in visitor spending. A competitive bid process is not feasible for this
contract since Seattle Express has an Auto Transportation Certificate granting them the sole
right to provide this service in our area UNANIMOUS APPROVAL. FORWARD TO OCTOBER
6 REGULAR CONSENT AGENDA.
C. 2014 2 Quarter Cash and Investment Report
Staff reviewed the 2nd Quarter Cash and Investment Report for 2014, including information on
the City's portfolio nomponents, performance, policy compliance and liquidity ane|ysis, fund
cash and investment ba|onmss, and investment environment. At June 30. 2014. the portfolio
totaled $47.1 million comprising $37.2 million in cash and cash equivalents and $10.0 in longer
term investments. This represents a $2.4 million increase from the March 31, 2014 balance,
attributable to the collection of property taxes in the 2nd quarter. INFORMATION ONLY.
