INFORMATIONAL MEMORANDUM
TO: Public Safety Committee
FROM: Mike Villa, Chief of Police
BY: Officer Larry Hann, City Attorney Ann Marie Soto
CC: Mayor Ekberg
DATE: December 27, 2016
SUBJECT: An Amendment to Ordinance 1668 regarding Destruction of Forfeited
Firearms
ISSUE
The Council is being asked to consider and approve amending ordinance 1668 as codified in
Tukwila Municipal Code (TMC) section 8.11.030 "Destruction of Forfeited Firearms".
BACKGROUND
In 1993, the Washington State Legislature adopted RCW 9.41.098 authorizing local
governments to dispose of seized and forfeited firearms in any manner as determined by local
legislative authority. The Tukwila City Council subsequently adopted Ordinance 1668 providing
for destruction of all seized and forfeited firearms declared surplus.
DISCUSSION
The amendment allows for used, out of warranty and unreliable or unserviceable firearms to be
returned to the original manufacturer in trade for a new model that increases safety and
reliability for the officer at a substantial savings to the department. The City Council would
exercise its discretion by directing the Tukwila Police Department to dispose of all forfeited and
surplus firearms not meeting an exemption by either destroying the firearm or trading the firearm
to a licensed manufacturer through an authorized "buy back" program.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
While there are other firearms manufactures that have similar trade-in programs, the following
example is from Glock Inc (currently the standard pistol issued by the Tukwila Police
Department). Glock's current Law Enforcement Agency price for a new Generation 4 Glock
model 22 is $414.00. If an older generation 2 or 3 model Glock 22 is traded back to Glock, the
cost to the agency for the new generation four handguns drops from $414.00 to $164.00.
RECOMMENDATION
The Council is being asked to approve the amendment of Ordinance 1668 at the February 27,
2017 Committee of the Whole meeting and subsequent March 6, 2017 Regular meeting.

A. Ordinance: Destruction of Forfeited Firearms
Staff is seeking Council approval of an ordinance that would amend Tukwila Municipal Code
Section 8.11.030 to allow for used, out of warranty, or unserviceable firearms to be returned to
the manufacturer through an authorized "buy back" program." This would be in addition to
destruction of firearms when appropriate, and the reduction in price due to the trade -in would
result in cost savings to the city. The Committee was in favor of the proposal contingent on
written clarity from the manufacturers regarding the disposition of the returned firearms,
