DATE: March 21, 2016
SUBJECT: Wireless Communication Facilities Updates
ISSUE
Updates to TMC 18.58, the Wireless Communication Facilities regulations, are needed to come
into compliance with new Federal Communication Commission (FCC) rules related to the
Spectrum Act.
BACKGROUND
New regulations regarding wireless communication facilities were included in the Middle Class
Tax Relief and Job Creation Act of 2012 (Spectrum Act).' In that legislation Section 6409(a)
provides, in part, that "a State or local government may not deny, and shall approve, any eligible
facilities request for a modification of an existing wireless tower or base station that does not
substantially change the physical dimensions of such tower or base station." 2 The intention was
to streamline approval of technology updates by wireless carriers. The FCC elaborated this
mandate into new rules that require cities to approve qualified applications within 60 days, allow
limited expansion at these sites and clarify that these rules cannot be used to defeat any
"stealthing" conditions that applied to the original approval of the site.
The full text of the FCC Wireless Infrastructure Report and Order can be found at
http: / /www.fcc.gov/ document /wireless- infrastructure - report- and -order . The draft ordinance was
reviewed by CAP on February 8, 2016 and they forwarded it to the Planning Commission for a
hearing and recommendation. The Planning Commission held a public hearing on February 25tH
and their recommended ordinance is Attachment A to this memo.
DISCUSSION
Tukwila has three main categories of wireless facilities ranging from least to most obtrusive. The
higher the category the more information is needed from the applicant to justify the installation.
The proposed new permit type, eligible facilities modification, would be categorized as Type 1
because it is limited to colocations on towers and buildings with existing antenna arrays. These
installations must also abide by any "stealthing" requirements placed on the original approval
and must not constitute a substantial change to the site as defined in the ordinance.
These rule changes can be accommodated by minor edits to Tukwila's existing zoning
regulations for wireless communication facilities. The primary effect is to require that we issue
' See Spectrum Act § 6409(a). Section 6409(a) has since been codified in the Communications Act as 47 U.S.C. §
1455(a).
2 Spectrum Act § 6409(a)(1).

permit decisions for affected proposals within 60 days, rather than the current 120 day clock.
As our review is generally faster than that it should have little impact.
Staff has made the draft ordinance available to wireless industry representatives for their
comments. The issue of height exemptions for Bird Safety /Exclusionary devices was raised by
the Port of Seattle, who requested that carriers install bird exclusionary devices on existing
towers within 5 miles of SeaTac Airport to reduce the likelihood of bird strikes on airplanes and
prevent injury to the birds.

In addition to these changes we are proposing some housekeeping edits including:
• Clarifying when updating antenna technology is exempt from wireless permit review
• Replacing references to the Planning Commission with the Hearing Examiner per TMC
18.104.010
• Reflecting case law since 2006 when the chapter was written
FINANCIAL IMPACT
These changes will not create a financial impact on the City as they do not affect the type or
cost of our wireless facility permitting.
RECOMMENDATION
The Council is being asked to forward this ordinance to the April 25, 2016 Committee of the
Whole meeting for a public hearing and subsequent May 2 Regular Meeting.

Creation Act of 2012" (the "Spectrum Act") (PL- 112 -96: codified at 47 U.S.C. � 1455(a)),
which requires the City to approve any eligible facilities request for a modification of an
existing tower or base station that does not substantially change the physical
dimensions of such tower or base station. The intent is to exempt eligible facilities
requests from zoning and development regulations that are inconsistent with or
W: Word Processing\Ordinances\Wireless facilities-collocation update strike-thru 4-11-16
NG:bjs Page 11 of 15
15
preempted by Section 6409 of the Spectrum Act, while preserving the City's right to
continue to enforce and condition approvals under this chapter on compliance with
generally applicable building, structural, electrical, and safety codes and with other laws
codifying objective standards reasonably related to health and safety.
B. Definitions.
1. "Base station" shall mean and refer to the structure or equipment at a fixed
location that enables wireless communications licensed or authorized by the FCC,
between user equipment and a communications network. The term does not
encompass a tower as defined in this chapter or any equipment associated with a
tower.
a. The term includes, but is not limited to, equipment associated with
wireless communications services such as private, broadcast, and public safety
services, as well as unlicensed wireless services and fixed wireless services such as
microwave backhaul.
b. The term includes, but is not limited to radio transceivers, antennas,
coaxial or fiber-optic cable, regular and backup power supplies, and comparable
equipment, regardless of technological configuration (including Distributed Antenna
Systems and small-cell networks).
c. The term includes any structure other than a tower that, at the time an
eligible facilities modification application is filed with the City under this chapter,
supports or houses equipment described in subparagraphs (a) and (b) of TMC Section
18.58.2003, and that has been reviewed and approved under the applicable zoning or
siting process, or under another State, county or local regulatory review process, even if
the structure was not built for the sole or primary purpose of providing such support.
d. The term does not include any structure that, at the time a completed
eligible facilities modification application is filed with the City under this section, does no
support or house equipment described in subparagraphs (a) and (b) of TMC Section
18.58.200.B.
2. "Eligible facilities modification" shall mean and refer to any proposed
facilities modification that has been determined pursuant to the provisions of this
chapter to be subject to this chapter and that does not result in a substantial change in
the Physical dimensions of an eligible support structure.
3. "Eligible support structure" shall mean and refer to any existing tower or
base station as defined in this chapter, provided it is in existence at the time the eligible
facilities modification application is filed with the City under this chapter.
4. "Existing" shall mean and refer to a constructed tower or base station that
was reviewed and approved under the applicable zoning or siting process and lawfully
constructed.

5. "Proposed facilities modification" shall mean and refer to a proposal
submitted by an applicant to modify an eligible support structure the applicant asserts is
subject to review under Section 6409 of the Spectrum Act, and involving_
a. collocation of new transmission equipment;
b. removal of transmission equipment; or
c. replacement of transmission equipment.
6. "Site" shall mean and refer to the current boundaries of the leased or
owned property surrounding a tower (other than a tower in the public rights -of -way) and
any access or utility easements currently related to the site and, for other eligible
support structures, shall mean and be further restricted to, that area in proximity to the
structure and to other transmission equipment already deployed on the ground.
7. "Substantial Change ". A proposed facilities modification will substantially
change the physical dimensions of an eligible support structure if it meets any of the
following criteria:
a. For towers not in the public rights -of -way, it increases the height of the
tower by more than 10% or by the height of one additional antenna array with
separation from the nearest existing antenna not to exceed 20 feet, whichever is
greater; for other eligible support structures, it increases the height of the structure by
more than 10% or more than 10 feet, whichever is greater.
Changes in height should be measured from the original support structure in cases
where deployments are or will be separated horizontally, such as on buildings' rooftops;
in other circumstances, changes in height should be measured from the dimensions of
the tower or base station inclusive of originally approved appurtenances and any
modifications that were approved prior to the passage of the Spectrum Act.
b. For towers not in the public rights -of -way, it involves adding an
appurtenance to the body of the tower that would protrude from the edge of the tower
more than 20 feet or more than the width of the tower structure at the level of the
appurtenance whichever is greater; for other eligible support structures, it involves
adding an appurtenance to the body of the structure that would protrude from the edge
of the structure by more than 6 feet.
c. For any eligible support structure, it involves installation of more than
the standard number of new equipment cabinets for the technology involved, but not to
exceed 4 cabinets; or, for towers in the public rights -of -way and base stations, it
involves installation of any new equipment cabinets on the ground if there are no pre-
existing ground cabinets associated with the structure or else involves installation of
ground cabinets that are more than 10% larger in height or overall volume than any
other ground cabinets associated with the structure.

1. PRESENTATIONS
11. BUSINESS AGENDA
A. Presentation on Carbon Reduction Action Agenda
Ms. Willmott of Climate Solutions presented the Committee with a summary of the New Energy
Cities' Energy Map and Carbon Wedge analysis as well as potential near -term carbon reduction
strategies for the City to explore. These strategies were identified in collaboration with City
staff in fall of 2015, and are organized by themes of energy efficiency, transportation, and
renewable energy. The Committee asked that the presentation materials be delivered to the
full Council. INFORMATION ONLY.
B. Ordinance: Updating Wireless Communication Facilities Regulations
Staff is seeking Council approval of an ordinance that would amend Tukwila Municipal Code
18.58, Wireless Communication Facilities, to conform to new Federal Communication
Commission (FCC) rules. The Middle Class Tax Relief and Job Creation Act of 2012 (Spectrum
Act) requires cities to approve qualified applications within 60 days, allow limited expansion
and clarifies other rules. The primary effect to Tukwila's code will be to ensure the City issues
permit decisions with 60 days rather than the current 120 day period. The draft ordinance
includes other housekeeping edits and will have no financial impact. It was made available to
wireless industry representatives for feedback and will next go to the Planning Commission,
then return to Community Affairs and Parks. Councilmember Hougardy requested a map and
list of wireless facilities in the City. UNANIMOUS APPROVAL. FORWARD TO PLANNING

CASE NUMBER: L15 -0014
TITLE: Update to TMC 18.58 Wireless Facilities
TOPIC: Amendments to Tukwila's wireless communications facilities regulations to comply
with the Spectrum Act and streamline technology updates by wireless carriers.
LOCATION: Citywide
Nora Gierloff, Deputy Director,; Department of Community Development gave the presentation.
She said the wireless regulations' were originally adopted in 2006 and there have been considerable changes to
technology since that time. After the passage of the Spectrum Act the Federal Communications Commission
(FCC) created new rules for how the City can regulate telecommunication carriers and sets certain parameters
for existed permitted sites. Carriers are allowed to update their facilities if they meet the parameters, which the
City must approve within 60 days. The City currently has three types of permits in the code, and these eligible
facilities modifications fall under the least regulated Type I permit. The City wants to encourage carriers and
make it easier for them to make the best use of existing sites instead of moving on to new monopoles or new
sites. Therefore, the attempt to streamline the process for previously approved sites works well with the
existing code. The proposal does not change the general scheme, and the Spectrum Act does not change the
concept of how wireless facilities are regulated. Additionally, some housekeeping clarifications were proposed
to streamline the process, as well as changes to come into compliance with current case law.
Attachment C 1
22
The Port raised the issue of exclusionary devices to discourage birds from nesting on the cell antennas, which
is dangerous for the birds and the public. In order to encourage the bird nesting exclusionary devices staff is
proposing to exempt them from the tower height limits so carriers are not penalized.
There was a walkthrough of the proposed language. Following are the additional proposed changes:
Page 12, section 2, 1 c, suggested language — "changing or adding additional antennas within a previously
permitted concealed building mounted installation..."
Page 13, Table A, add footnote 4 to "Non- concealed building attached" in the residential district column.
Page 14, replace footnote 4 to read, "Multi- family zones only."
Page 14, paragraph B, revise — delete "co- location" and insert the word, "replacement" following the word
"pole" in the last sentence.
Page 15, 2e - A question was raised on whether a facility would be allowed to be located within a residential
zone, and if there are particular standards. Other questions also raised: Will there be an opportunity for citizen
input; would the facilities be located on City owned property; would the neighborhood be notified if the
facilities are located in a residential neighborhood; would there be a limit to the number of facilities located in
a proximity; could there be multiple towers in an area? There was extensive discussion and several clarifying
questions asked. The Commission had an interest for further discussion regarding this issue, as well as an
interest in some proposed language
Staff said the regulations have been in place since 2006 and there has been pretty good success in keeping the
facilities in the commercial and industrial zones.
Chair Mann proposed if a new tower is constructed in a residential zone that it automatically trigger SEPA.
She said it would give citizens in the community an opportunity to provide input on how the tower will look
and where it would be located. Staff said residents would be notified independently of SEPA if a new tower is
constructed.
Public Testimony:
Kimberly Allen, Bush Law Firm, industry representative thanked staff for working with them on the code
amendments. Ms. Allen said that the majority of the changes are being driven by the new Federal law, the
Spectrum Act. She provided some background on the requirement as stipulated by law and responded to
questions raised by the Commission. Ms. Allen went over a document, which was handed out at the public
hearing requesting additional code modifications. She said that it deals with a code section that was previously
called a height waiver. Changes she recommended are as follows:

(note: Commissioner Alford was not in the Court Room at present.) Ms. Allen proposed that the paragraph be
moved from paragraph one to paragraph two so it could be a Hearing Examiner's decision.
Chair Mann asked for a motion accepting the green line document received from the applicant with the
following exceptions:
1. The proposal to delete "of the Zoning Code' - denied, language will remain
24
3
2. The proposal to delete paragraph 1 was approved, but the language inserted instead at the end of the
sentence at 2 "and to ensure that the granting of the height waiver will not be detrimental to the public
safety, health or welfare, or injurious to other property, and will promote the public interest."
Commissioner Maestas made a motion to approve the applicant's green line document as revised, as noted by
Chair Mann. Commissioner Hansen seconded the motion. All were in favor.
Commissioner Hansen made a motion to forward the recommendations for Case Number L15 -0014 to the
City Council for their approval with staff's findings, conclusions, and the approved noted revisions.
Commissioner Strander seconded the motion. All were in favor.

Community Affairs and Parks Committee Minutes ................................................................... ............................... March 28, 2016
B. Ordinance: Wireless Communication Facilities
Staff is seeking Council approval of an ordinance that would amend Tukwila Municipal Code
18.58, Wireless Communication Facilities, to conform to new Federal Communication
Commission (FCC) rules. The Middle Class Tax Relief and Job Creation Act of 2012 (Spectrum
Act) requires cities to approve qualified applications within 60 days, allow limited expansion
and clarifies other rules. The draft ordinance includes other housekeeping edits and will have
no financial impact. The Planning Commission held a public hearing on February 25th. Staff
distributed a list of existing wireless communications facilities. The Committee requested
examples of "stealth" facilities. An additional amendment has been identified in Section 4,
18.58.050, Table A, last row to read "New tower or waiveF height adjustment." This amendment
will be reflected in the draft ordinance before the Committee of the Whole. UNANIMOUS
APPROVAL. FORWARD TO APRIL 25, 2016 COMMITTEE OF THE WHOLE FOR PUBLIC
HEARING AND DISCUSSION.
C. Code Enforcement Update: 2015 Abatements
Staff provided the Committee with an update on abatement work performed since the addition
of a Code Enforcement Officer in March 2015. Prior to 2015, 2 -3 nuisance properties were
abated per year. The additional staffing resulted in the closure of 27 cases from the backlog,
including voluntary abatements and City abatements. The Committee requested to be kept
informed on staffing and responsibilities in the Code Enforcement Department. INFORMATION
ONLY.
III. MISCELLANEOUS

INFORMATIONAL MEMORANDUM
TO: City Council
FROM: Scholarship Selection Committee: Council President Joe Duffie, Nate
Robinson, Teen Program Specialist, Joyce Trantina, Project
Development Manager, Cheryl Thompson, Executive Assistant, Jenni
Standard, College and Career Counselor Foster High School and
Karly Feria, College and Career Counselor Tyee Educational
Complex
DATE: April 15, 2016
SUBJECT: Tukwila City of Opportunity Scholarship Recommended Recipients
BACKGROUND
In 2014 the City of Tukwila created the Tukwila City of Opportunity Scholarship program
to provide financial assistance to high school seniors living in Tukwila to assist them in
continuing their education beyond high school. The resolution adopting the Tukwila City
of Opportunity Scholarship allocates $10,000 per calendar year for scholarship awards
with each award being no less than $1,000 and no more than $5,000 each.
Due to the requirement to notify recipients by April 30 each year, this matter has
traditionally been forwarded directly to the full Council at a Committee of the Whole
meeting for review.
This year we advertised the scholarship on the City's website, on Channel 21,
TheWash Board. org, Scholarships.com and informational brochures were provided to
Foster High School, Aviation High School, Tyee Educational Complex and Seattle
Christian High School. Mayor Ekberg and Project Development Manager Joyce Trantina
attended lunch at Foster High School and made a presentation promoting the City's
Scholarship.
DISCUSSION
A Scholarship Selection Committee comprised of Council President Joe Duffie, Nate
Robinson, Teen Program Specialist, Joyce Trantina, Project Development Manager,
Cheryl Thompson, Executive Assistant, Jenni Standard, College and Career Counselor
at Foster High School and Karly Feria, College and Career Counselor at Tyee
Educational Complex reviewed 17 eligible applications. Each reviewer individually
considered the applicant's grade point average, financial need, educational and
professional goals, community involvement (service, extracurricular activities, and
employment experience) and personal essay. The committee then met to discuss the
applications and recommendations. After discussion, the selection committee is
recommending scholarships be awarded to seven applicants.
In 2015 a $3,000 scholarship was awarded to Ada Jannina Arquiza. Ada ended up
joining the military rather than going to the University of Washington so the school
recently refunded the scholarship funds to the City. The scholarship selection

INFORMATIONAL MEMO
Page 2
committee, with the support of the Mayor and the Council President, is requesting
authorization from Council to reallocate the unused $3,000 from the 2015 scholarship
funds and add it to the $10,000 allocated for 2016 scholarship funds.
RECOMMENDATION
Based upon review of the applications, consideration of all of the required components,
discussion by the Committee, and pending Council approval to carry forward $3,000
from 2015 scholarship funds to the 2016 scholarship funds, we are recommending the
following scholarship awards be approved at the May 2, 2016 Council Meeting:
• $3,000 to Farhiya Abdi;
• $2,000 each to Naina Biswa, Jamuna Budhathoki, Fadumo Hersi and Ignacio
Martinez Avila; and
• $1,000 each to Mercy Nuam and Ehler Tha Win.
If Council does not authorize the reallocation of $3,000 from 2015 to 2016, we would
request that the Council approve awards to the above - mentioned scholarship recipients,
with award amounts to be determined after further review by the Scholarship Selection
Committee, not to exceed $10,000.
Scholarship recipients will be invited to the June 6 City Council meeting to be
recognized by the Council.

I come from family of seven with one unemployed parent. I am dependent on my parents and they cannot help me pay for my college needs due to the
financial situation. The assistance that we receive barely covers our basic needs. My older sisters work but their income is not sufficient to provide financial
help as they have their own families to take care of. I am a highly motivated high school student who wishes to have a better future for myself and my family. I
humbly look to Tukwila City of Opportunity Scholarship for support. Your understanding and assistance is very much appreciated. Thank you for your

SUBJECT:
Proposed 2017/2018 Budget Priorities
ISSUE
Since the adoption of the City Strategic Plan, the development of each biennial budget has
included collaboration between the City Council and City Administration on the identification of
shared priorities to guide the budget.
BACKGROUND
In December 2012, the City adopted its first Strategic Plan, developed with broad input from
stakeholders throughout the community and reflecting five long -range aspirational goals which
will help make our vision to be the "city of opportunity, the community of choice" a reality.
The City Council has demonstrated its commitment to collaborate with administrative staff from
all departments to identify shared priorities that reflect Tukwila's vision and inform budgeting
decisions. In accordance with this commitment, the City Council met jointly with City
Administration staff on May 12, 2015 and March 142-2, 2016 to discuss, identify and refine
potential priorities to guide the 2017/2017 Biennial Budget.
The May 2015 workshop was designed to collect big and small ideas that would further the
Strategic Plan goals. On March 1422, the group refined the work further by identifying
2015/2016 budget priorities that should be carried over into the next budget cycle, and potential
"new" 2017/2018 priority areas. These items were captured into five categories as defined by
the Strategic Plan Goals. Following the March 142-2 joint meeting, staff has refined the input
further by translating it into the format used in previous budget documents, grouping similar
priorities into broader common themes. The attached Strategic Plan Budget Priority Matrix
reflects draft 2017/2018 priorities that focus a broad range of ideas into areas that mirror the
broader Plan goals.
RECOMMENDATION
The Committee is asked to review the proposed 2017/2018 Budget Priorities and make a
recommendation to the Committee of the Whole, incorporating any desired revisions. The
Committee of the Whole will be asked to discuss the proposed priorities at its April 25 meeting.
Once the Council is comfortable with the proposed language, these priority areas for the
2017/2018 budget can be used to inform decisions made throughout the budget planning
process and be shared during the public outreach process.
