Widener & Associates) in the amount of $37,280.90 for construction management
environmental compliance support for the Interurban Avenue South roadway improvement
project. This project is in the final phase of construction and required several environmental

permits has certain requirements, and Widener & Associates has been monitoring compliance.
This amendment is to cover an increased scope of work due to the discovery of contaminated
groundwater and soils. Funding for this amendment is available from the contingency budget.
UNANIMOUS APPROVAL. FORWARD TO JULY 20, 2015 REGULAR CONSENT AGENDA.
C. Ordinance: Tukwila Urban Center Pedestrian /Bicycle Bridge Right -of -Way Acquisition
Staff is seeking Council approval of an ordinance that would authorize acquisition of property
relating to the TUC Pedestrian /Bicycle Bridge Project. Final design for this project is nearly
complete, and additional right -of -way is needed on the west side of the Green River. The
property is currently part of the Riverview Plaza office park. Design has attempted to minimize
the land encroachment but these remaining small amounts are needed in order to avoid
significant impacts to the levee. The City continues to work with the property owner but this
ordinance will provide the authority to condemn the property should negotiations fail. The
owners have been notified of the opportunity for public hearing. UNANIMOUS APPROVAL.
FORWARD TO JULY 27, 2015 COMMITTEE OF THE WHOLE FOR PUBLIC HEARING.
