SUBJECT: Agreement to enter into an Interlocal Agreement with King County Regional
Animal Services beginning January 1, 2018
ISSUE
Approve agreement to enter into an Interlocal Agreement with King County Regional Animal
Services to continue to provide animal services for unincorporated King County and 25 contract
cities, including the city of Tukwila, beginning January 3, 2018.
BACKGROUND
King County has been providing regional animal control services for several years. In 2010, the
County created a partnership with 26 cities. In 2012, 25 cities contracted with King County for a
3 -year term, ending December 31, 2015. In June, 2012, the City approved and signed this
Agreement that remained in effect through the end of 2015. The agreement allowed for an
extension for an additional two -year term, ending December 31, 2017, which Council approved
in March 2015.
The programs and services are supported by pet licensing and fees /fines as well as the general
fund of King County and many of the contracting cities.
The cost allocation model assigns 80% of program expenses based on use (responses to calls,
shelter intakes, etc.) and 20% based on population to provide a correlation between the costs of
the program and the use of the program. Tukwila data compared to all contract cities and
unincorporated King County is as follows:
Tukwila
2016 population
2015 calls
2015 shelter intakes
2015 license count
19,300
177
216
1,127
All Entities
1.91% of total population
7% of total calls
5.71 % of total shelter intakes
1.18% of total licenses
King County currently contributes $5.26 million of the general fund to support animal services,
which is about 38% of the total revenue of $14 million for the program. Member cities contribute
about $1.6 million, or 11%. The remaining revenue for the program comes from license and
adoption fees, enhanced services, and other miscellaneous fees and charges.

DISCUSSION
The existing contract is currently under review by representatives of each of the member cities
as well as King County. A copy of the Agreement in Principle with changes tracked is included
as an attachment. Summarized below are the changes that are being proposed:
1. Cost allocation methodology to remain the same (80% based on service usage and 20%
based on jurisdiction population) but usage would be on a 3 -year rolling average rather
than annual.
2. The term of the agreement would change from 3 years to 5 years. (Effective January 1,
2618 through December 31, 2022).
3. A 5 -year automatic extension. An opt out of automatic extension available by providing
notice no later than June 30, 2021.
4. Limited Re- Opener upon Notice of Termination, if any city or cities opts out of the
second term, and the resulting cost impact to any remaining party is not estimated to
exceed 10 %, the Agreement shall automatically extend for a second 5 -year term, to
December 31, 2027 subject to agreement adjusting the ILA as necessary based on
parties departing the system.
5. Latecomers, allowed prior to the termination or expiration of Agreement, but only if the
additional party will not cause an increase any City's net costs payable to the County or
decrease in services provided under this Agreement.
6. Retain shelter credits (no Transition or Licensing support credits).
7. Jurisdiction revenue in excess of jurisdictions costs —used to reduce regional model
support expenses (County General Fund expenses that are not charged to model).
It should be noted that the City of Kirkland will be departing from the regional model for animal
control. King County is continuing to work with the rest of the city partners to mitigate cost
impacts of Kirkland potential leaving the system. At this time, the financial impact to the City of
Tukwila is expected to be minimal. Cost allocation scenarios with the City of Kirkland no longer
a partner in the interlocal agreement are included as an attachment.
Timeline for negotiating the agreement is as follows:
September 1, 2016
December 31, 2016
January 2017
March 1, 2017
June t 2017
Draft agreement in principle completed
Cities confirm non-binding mutual interest based on agreement in
principle
County approves draft contract — based on agreement
Cities provide notice to County of final intent to contract
City Councils approve contract
A representative from Regional Animal Control Services of King County will be attending the
November 28, 2016 Committee of the Whole to provide information on the financial and service
impact to the city of Tukwila as well as answer questions.
RECOMMENDATION
Council is being asked to authorize the initial non - binding Statement of intent with respect to
entering into an interlocal agreement with King County Regional Animal Control Services
beginning January 1, 2018, based on the Agreement in Principle dated September 1, 2016, and
consider this item at the November 28, 2016 Committee of the Whole meeting and subsequent
December 5, 2016 Regular Meeting.

Exhibit A
Animal Service Description
Part I; Control Services
Control Services include the operation of a public call center, the dispatch of animal
control officers in response to calls, and the handling of calls in the field by animal control
officers, including the collection and delivery of animals to the Kent Shelter (or such other
shelters as the County may utilize in accordance with this Agreement).
1. Call Center
a. The County will operate an animal control call center five days every week
(excluding holidays and County - designated furlough days, if applicable) for
a minimum of eight hours per day (normal business hours). The County
may negotiate with applicable unions with the purpose of obtaining a
commitment for the five day call center operation to include at least one
weekend day. The County may adjust the days of the week the call center
operates to match the final choice of Control District service days.
b. The animal control call center will provide callers with guidance, education,
options and alternative resources as possible /appropriate.
c. When the call center is not in operation, callers will hear a recorded message
referring them to 911 in case of emergency, or if the event is not an
emergency, to either leave a message or call back during regular business
hours.
2. Animal Control Officers
a. The County will divide the area receiving Control Services into three Control
Districts as shown on Exhibit B. Subject to the limitations provided in this
Section 2, Control Districts 200 and 220 will be staffed with one Animal
Control Officer during Regular ACO Service Hours and District 500 will be
staffed with two Animal Control Officers (ACOs) during Regular ACO
Service Hours. Regular ACO Service Hours is defined to include not less
than 40 hours per week. The County will negotiate with applicable unions
with the intention of obtaining a commitment for Regular ACO Service
Hours to include service on at least one weekend day. Regular ACO Service
Hours may change from time to time.
i. Except as the County may in its sole discretion determine is necessary
to protect officer safety, ACOs shall be available for responding to
calls within their assigned Control District and will not be generally
80 Document Dated 9/1/16
22
Attachment F
available to respond to calls in other Control Districts. Exhibit B -1
shows the map of Control Districts.
ii. Countywide, the County will have a total of not less than 6 ACOs
(Full -Time Equivalent employees) on staff to maximize the ability of
the County to staff all Control Districts notwithstanding vacation,
sick - leave, and other absences, and to respond to high workload areas
on a day-to-day basis. While the Parties recognize that the County
may at times not be able to staff all Control Districts as proposed
given unscheduled sick leave or vacancies, the County will make its
best efforts to establish regular hourly schedules and vacations for
ACOs in order to minimize any such gaps in coverage. In the event of
extended absences among the 6 ACOs, the County will re- allocate
remaining ACOs as practicable in order to balance the hours of service
available in each Control District. In the event of ACO absences (for
any causes and whether or not such absences are extended as a result
of vacancies or other issues), the first priority in allocating ACOs shall
be to ensure there is an ACO assigned in each Control District during
Regular ACC? Service Hours.
b. Control District boundaries have bccnare designed to balance work load,
correspond to jurisdictional boundaries and facilitate expedient
transportation access across each district. The County will arrange a location
for an Animal Control vehicle to be stationed overnight in Control Districts
( "host sites ") in order to facilitate service and travel time improvements or
efficiencies.
c. The County will use its best efforts to ensure that High Priority Calls are
responded to by an ACO during Regular ACO Service Hours on the day
such call is received. The County shall retain full discretion as to the order in
which High Priority calls are responded. High Priority Calls include those
calls that pose an emergent danger to the community, including:
I. Emergent animal bite,
2. Emergent vicious dog,
3. Emergent injured animal,
4. Police assist calls — (police officer on scene requesting assistance
from an ACO),
5. Emergent loose livestock or other loose or deceased animal that
poses a potential danger to the community, and
6. Emergent animal cruelty.
d. Lower priority calls include all calls that are not High Priority Calls. These
calls will be responded to by the call center staff over the telephone, referral
Document Dated 9/1/16
Attachment F
to other resources, or by dispatching of an ACO as necessary or available, all
as determined necessary and appropriate in the sole discretion of the
County. Particularly in the busier seasons of the year (spring through fall),
lower priority calls may only receive a telephone response from the Call
Center. Lower Priority calls are non - emergent requests for service, including
but not limited to:
1. Non- emergent high priority events,
2. Patrol request — (ACO requested to patrol a specific area due to
possible code violations),
3. Trespass,
4. Stray Dog/Cat/other animal confined,
5. Barking Dog,
6. Leash Law Violation,
7. Deceased Animal,
8. Trap Request,
9. Female animal in season, and
10. Owner's Dog/Cat/other animal confined.
e. The Joint -City County Committee is tasked with reviewing response
protocols and recommending potential changes to further the goal of
supporting the most appropriate use of scarce Control Service resources
countywide. The County will in good faith consider such recommendations
but reserves the right to make final decisions on response protocols. The
County will make no changes to its procedures that are inconsistent with the
terms of this Exhibit A, except that upon the recommendation of the Joint
City -County Committee, the County may agree to modify response with
respect to calls involving animals other than horses, livestock, dogs and cats.
f. In addition to the ACOs serving specific districts, the following Control
Service resources will be available on a shared basis for all Parties and shall
be dispatched as deemed necessary and appropriate by the County.
1. An animal control sergeant will provide oversight of and back-
up for ACOs five days per week at least 8 hours /day (subject to
vacation/sick leave/training/etc.).
2. Staff will be available to perform animal cruelty investigations,
to respond to animal cruelty cases, and to prepare related
reports (subject to vacation/sick leave /training/etc.).
3. Not less than 1 ACO will be on call every day at times that are
not Regular ACO Service Hours (including the days per week
that are not ineluded within Regular ACO Service Hours), to
respond to High Priority Calls posing an extreme life and
safety danger, as determined by the County.
82 Document Dated 9/1/16
24
Attachment F
g. The Parties understand that rural areas of the County will generally receive a
less rapid response time from ACOs than urban areas.
h. Contracting Cities may contract with King County for "Enhanced Control
Services" through separate agreement (as set forth in Exhibit E); provided
that a City may not purchase Enhanced Control Services under Option 1 as
described in Exhibit E if such City is receiving a Transition Funding Credit,
Shelter Credit, or Iicensing revenue support the cost of which is not
reimbursed to the County.
Part II: Shelter Services
Shelter services include the general care, cleaning and nourishment of owner- released, lost
or stray dogs, cats and other animals. Such services shall be provided 7 -days per week, 365

Program costs allocated under this Agreement (as part of the central County overhead
charges allocated to the Program), but no major renovation, upgrades or replacements of
the Shelter established as a capital project within the County Budget are anticipated nor
will any such capital project costs be allocated to the Contracting Cities in Service Years
2018 -2022.
1. Shelter Services
a. Services provided to animals will include enrichment, exercise, care and
feeding, and reasonable medical attention.
b. The Public Service Counter at the Shelter will be open to the public not less
than 30 hours per week and not less than 5 days per week, excluding

time to time) pet surrenders. The Public Service Counter at the shelter may
be open for additional hours if practicable within available resources.
c. The County will maintain a volunteer/foster care function at the Shelter to
encourage use of volunteers working at the shelter and use of foster
families to provide fostering/transitional care between shelter and
permanent homes for adoptable animals.
d. The County will maintain an animal placement function at the Shelter to
provide for and manage adoption events and other activities leading to the
placement of animals in appropriate homes.

determines necessary.
E The County will take steps through its operating policies, codes, public fee
structures and partnerships to reduce the number of animals and their
length of stay in the Shelter, and may at times limit owner - surrenders and
field pick -ups, adjust fees and incentivize community -based solutions.
2. Other Shelter services
a. Dangerous animals will be confined as appropriate /necessary.
b. Disaster /emergency preparedness for animals will be coordinated
regionally through efforts of King County staff.
3. Shelter for Contracting Cities contracting with PAWS (Potentially including
Woodinville, Shoreline, Lake Forest Park, Kenmore ("Northern Cities")). For so
long as a Northern City has a contract in effect for sheltering dogs and cats with the
Progressive Animal Welfare Society in Lynnwood (PAWS), the County will not
shelter dogs and cats picked up within the boundaries of such City(s), except in
emergent circumstances and when the PAWS Lynwood shelter is not available.
Dogs and cats picked up by the County within such City(s) will be transferred by
the County to the PAWS shelter in Lynnwood for shelter care, which will be
provided and funded solely through separate contracts between each Northern City
and PAWS, and the County will refer residents of that City to PAWS for sheltering
services. The County will provide shelter services for animals other than dogs and
cats that are picked up within the boundaries of Northern Cities contracting with
PAWS on the same terms and conditions that such shelter services are provided to
other Contracting Parties. Except as provided in this Section, the County is under
no obligation to drop animals picked up in any Contracting City at any shelter
other than the County shelter in Kent.
4. County Contract with PAWS. Nothing in this Agreement is intended to prelude
the County from contracting with PAWS in Lynnwood to care for animals taken in
by County ACOs.
5. Service to Persons who are not Residents of Contracting Cities. The County will
not provide routine shelter services for animals brought in by persons who are not
residents of Contracting Cities, but may provide emergency medical care to such
animals, and may seek to recover the cost of such services from the pet owner
and/or the City in which the resident lives.

Enhanced Control Services Contract (Optional)
Between City of ( "City") and King County ( "County")
The County will to offer Enhanced Control Services to the City during Service Years 2018
through 2022; of the Animal Services Interlocal Agreement for 2018 Through 2012 M22
between the City and the County dated and effective as of July 1, 2017 (the "Agreement ")
subject to the terms and conditions as described herein. The provisions of this Contract
are optional to both Parties and shall not be effective unless executed by both Parties,
A. The City may request services under two different options, summarized here and
described in further detail below:
Option 1: for a period of not Tess than one year, the City may request service from
an Animal Control Officer dedicated to the City ( "Dedicated Officer "). Such service
must be confirmed in writing through both Parties entering into this Enhanced
Control Services Contract no later than August 15 of the year prior to the Service
Year in which the service is requested.
Option 2: for a period of less than one year, the City may request a specified
number of over -time service hours on specified days and time from the 6 Animal
Control Officers staffing the three Control Districts. Unlike Option 1, the individual
officers providing the service will be determined by the County and may vary from
time to time; the term "Dedicated Officer" used in context of Option 2 is thus
different than its meaning with respect to Option 1. Option 2 service must be
requested no later than 60 days prior to the commencement of the period in which
the service is requested, unless waived by the County.
The City shall initiate a request for enhanced service by completing and submitting
Attachment A to the County. If the County determines it is able to provide the
requested service, it will so confirm by completing and countersigning Attachment A
and signing this Contract and returning both to the City for final execution.

Animal Control Officer dedicated to the City ( "Dedicated Officer ") as described in
Attachment A and this Contract.
1. Costs identified in Attachment A for Option 1 are for one (1) year of service in
each service year beginning in 2018, costs will be based on the previous year's

equipment and animal control vehicle for the employee's use). Costs are subject
to adjustment each year, limited by the Annual Budget Inflator Cap (as defined
in the Agreement).
2. Costs for Option 2 will be determined by the County each year based on its
actual hourly overtime pay for the individual Animal Control Officers providing
the service, plus mileage at the federal reimbursement rate. The number of
miles for which mileage is charged shall be miles which would not have been
traveled but for the provision of the enhanced service.
3. Costs paid for enhanced services will be included in the Reconciliation
calculation for each Service Year, as described in Exhibit D of the Agreement.
C. Services of the Dedicated Officer shall be in addition to the Animal Services otherwise
provided to the City by the County through the Agreement. Accordingly, the calls
responded to by the Dedicated Officer shall not be incorporated in the calculation of
the City's Calls for Service (as further described in Exhibit C and D to the Agreement).
D. The scheduling of work by the Dedicated Officer will be determined by mutual
agreement of the contract administrators identified in the Agreement, and (in the case
of a purchase of service under Option 1) the mutual agreement of officials of other
Contracting Cities named as contract administrators that have committed to sharing in
the expense of the Dedicated Officer. In the event the parties are unable to agree on
scheduling, the County shall have the right to finally determine the schedule of the
Dedicated Officer(s).
E. Control Services to be provided to the City pursuant to this Enhanced Services
Contract include Control Services of the type and nature as described under the
Agreement with respect to Animal Control Officers serving in Control Districts, and
include but are not limited to, issuing written warnings, citations and other
enforcement notices and orders on behalf of the City, or such other services as the
Parties may reasonably agree.
F. The County will provide the City with a general quarterly calendar of scheduled
service in the City, and a monthly report of the types of services offered and
performed.
G. For Services purchased under Option 1: An FTE will be scheduled to serve 40 hour
weeks, however, with loss of service hours potentially attributable to vacation, sick
leave, training and furlough days, not less than 16 00 hours per year will be provided.
Document Dated 9/1/16
Attachment F
Similarly, a half -time FTE will provide not less than 800 hours per year. The County

quarter, excepting that during the 4th quarter of each year during the term of this
Contract, an invoice shall be submitted to the City no later than December 15th. All
invoiced amounts shall be payable by the City within 30 days of the invoice date.
H. For Services purchased under Option 2: The County shall submit to the City an
invoice and billing voucher at the end of each calendar quarter. All invoiced amounts
shall be payable by the City within 30 days of the invoice date.
I.
The City or County may terminate this Enhanced Services Contract with or without
cause upon providing not less than 3 months written notice to the other Party;
provided that, if the City has purchased services under Option 1 and is sharing the
Enhanced Control Services with other Contracting Cities, this Contract may only be
terminated by the City if: (1) all such other Contracting Cities similarly agree to
terminate service on such date, or (2) if prior to such termination date another

Benefits of a Regional Animal Services System
Attachment D
Effective and Efficient Service
• Provide equity of service, consistent level of service, common regulatory approach, and support humane animal
care across the region.
• Centralization efficiency and effectiveness in:
o Serving as a single access point for residents for animal related issues
o Providing a centralized database of historical and current information, regarding residents, location and
animal data related to pet licensing and animal control activities
a An economy of scale to provide a full range of services and the ability to respond to large scale issues,
efficiency in operations, database administration, staff training, etc.
• Reducing demands on individual jurisdictions:
o Communications from the media, advocacy groups and other interested parties on animal issues (e.g.
public disclosure requests)
o Local police agencies to focus on traditional law enforcement instead of civil animal nuisances and
offenses
o Loral court systems do not deal with animal related civil appeal processes
o Local jurisdictions are not involved in court proceedings for Superior Court appeals of actions or lawsuit
response
• Builds economies of scale to provide a full range of services, making it less expensive to develop operations,
training, licensing and care programs than it would be for cities to duplicate similar levels of services at the local
level.
• Supports !ow -cost spay and neuter programs which are key to reducing the population of homeless animals and
thus reducing the costs of the system over time.
• Use of volunteers and partnerships with private animal welfare groups increases humane animal treatment with
minimal public cost. In 2015, volunteers contributed over 90,000 hours of support to the County animal services
system as foster parents or providing direct adoptable animal care, equivalent to 45 FTEs.
Customer Service
• Provides a single access point for residents seeking animal control help.
• A regional, uniform pet licensing program that is easier for the public to access and understand, with a broad
range of accompanying services to encourage licensing; marketing, partnering with third parties to encourage
license sales, and database management.
• Online licensing sales increase the ease of compliance for pet owners.
• Pet Adoption Center is open and provides lost pet and adoption services 7 days a week.

Notes:
Costs allocated represent the Net Final Cost Allocation
All scenarios with Kirkland out include non -labor expenditure reductions ($15,191) and Revenue reductions ($14,000)
Status Quo = 3 Districts, no change to disticts
420 = 2 Districts - (District 200 and 220 combined)
920 = 1 District - All three districts (200, 220, and 500) combined for field cost allocation
Staff Reduction - This scenario reduces one Animal Control Officer from the field, and shifts Animal Care Technician support from the shelter for lower priority calls in the field.
Pet License Revenue assumes 2015 Actual or the period August 2015 -July 2016, whichever is most favorable. Licensing Support is currently assumed at $0.00.

Joint City - County Collaboration Committee
2018 -2022 Inter -local Agreement
The County has been in discussion with cities for several months now on terms for a new successor animal services
agreement. The City- County workgroup has reached a consensus regional recommendation on a proposed 5 year
agreement, which would run from January 2018 through the end of 2022. The terms of this proposal are presented in
the Agreement in Principle documents provided to cities on September 1, 2016.
Under the cost allocation model, each jurisdiction's costs will depend upon the specific set of cities participating. For
this reason, we are requesting an initial non - binding statement of intent from each city as to whether you are
preliminarily interested in signing up for the new animal services ILA, beginning January 1, 2018, under the terms
proposed in the attached Agreement in Principle. To accomplish this, we are asking for an email from you by
close of business December 30, 2016 indicating which option below best represents your city's position at this
time — again, this is non - binding.
Our next step is to prepare final draft contract language and cost estimates (to be circulated in January, 2017). The
more accurate information we can get from you now, the more accurate that next set of cost estimates will be.
Please confirm your response by completing the information below – No later than December 31 2016.
E -mail response is fine; e-mail to
Norm Alberg; norm.alberg@kingcountv.go v
Diane Carlson; Diane .carlsonrrr�kingcountv.gov
City of Initial Non - Binding Statement of Intent with Respect to entering into an
Interlocal Agreement with King County Regional Animal Services, beginning January 1, 2018, based on the
Agreement in Principle dated September 1, 2016. (Please indicate your City's non - binding intent by selecting
one of the two choices below and deleting /striking out the option not selected):
Please continue to include my City in the cost allocation model for purposes of developing final draft
contract language and cost estimates.
Or
It is extremely unlikely that my City will participate in the new Interlocal agreement. Please remove my
City from the cost allocation model for purposes of developing final draft contract language and cost estimates.
