Allan Ekberg, Mayor
TO: COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT AND NEIGHBORHOODS COMMITTEE
FROM: MAYOR EKBERG
BY: CHERYL THOMPSON, EXECUTIVE ASSISTANT
CC: DAVID CLINE, CITY ADMINISTRATOR
DATE: FEBRUARY 14, 2017
SUBJECT: MUNICIPAL CODE UPDATE TO THE CITY'S BOARDS AND COMMISSIONS
ISSUE
To update the Municipal Code to incorporate best practices as guidelines for the City's Advisory
Boards, Commissions and Committees.
BACKGROUND
The Municipal Research and Services Center has published a report outlining best practices for
Advisory Boards, Commissions and Committees, a copy of which has been previously provided
to you. City staff did an assessment of our Boards, Commissions and Committees and
determined that it would be beneficial to the City to update the Chapters of the Tukwila
Municipal Code that pertain to our Boards, Commissions and Committees.
The purpose of the update to the Municipal Code is to provide for consistency and to
incorporate the recommended best practices: Purpose, Member Qualifications, Appointment
Procedures, Length of Appointment, Revocation of Appointment, Organization, Procedures for
Conduct of Meeting, Meeting Schedule, Staff Assistance, Reporting Requirements, Evaluation
Process and Bylaws/Rules of Procedure. Rather than having the terms for various boards and
commissions expiring at different times throughout the year, we are proposing that all terms
expire at the end of the calendar year. If the Council approves the proposed change in term
expiration dates, all existing terms will be extended to December 31 of the year they are set to
expire. The majority of the advisory groups have had the opportunity to review the proposed
changes.
DISCUSSION
The following will summarize the proposed changes to each advisory group.
Arts Commission
The main changes to TMC 2.30 Tukwila Arts Commission were to add provisions for Revocation
of Appointment, Staff Assistance, Reporting Requirements and Evaluation Process and the
adoption of Bylaws.
Civil Service Commission
The main changes to TMC 2.42 Civil Service Commission were to add provisions for
Procedures for Conduct of Meeting, Staff Assistance and the adoption of Bylaws.
Equity and Diversity Commission
The changes to TMC 2.29 Equity and Diversity Commission are more substantial. Staff is
proposing to change the name from Equity and Diversity to Equity and Social Justice and to
modify the objectives of the Commission to include facilitating better understanding and 13

awareness of social justice and human rights. In addition to changing the name of the
Commission, staff is proposing to make the Sister Cities Committee a sub-committee of the
Equity and Social Justice Commission and to change the name from Sister Cities Committee to
Sister Cities and Civic Awareness Committee. The purpose of the Sister Cities and Civic
Awareness Committee would be expanded to include connecting youth and residents with civic
organizations for education and awareness.
Other changes include adding provisions for Revocation of Appointment, Evaluation Process
and adding a Student Representative.
Park Commission
The main changes to TIVIC 2.32 Park Commission are to increase membership from five
members to up to seven members, and to add provisions for Revocation of Appointment, Staff
Assistance, Reporting Requirements and Evaluation Process and adoption of bylaws.
Planning Commission
The main changes to TIVIC 2.36 Planning Commission are to add provisions for Organization,
Procedures for Conduct of Meeting, Meeting Schedule and Staff Assistance.
Community Oriented Policing Citizen's Advisory Board
The main changes to TIVIC 2.39 Community Oriented Policing Citizen's Advisory Board are to
add provisions for Staff Assistance, Evaluation Process and the adoption of bylaws.
Human Services Advisory Board
The main changes to TIVIC 2.34 Human Services Advisory Board are to add provisions for Staff
Assistance, Reporting Requirements and Evaluation Process and the adoption of bylaws.
Library Advisory Board
The main changes to TIVIC 2.33 Library Advisory Board are to increase membership from five
members to up to seven members, add a Student Representative, and add provisions for Staff
Assistance, Reporting Requirements and Evaluation Process and adoption of bylaws.
Lodging Tax Advisory Committee
The changes to the Lodging Tax Advisory Committee include repealing Resolutions 1381 and
1533 that established the Committee and adding the Committee to the Municipal Code as TIVIC
2.35 Lodging Tax Advisory Committee. The changes between the Resolutions and TIVIC 2.35
are codifying the appointment and the term of appointment in compliance with RWC 67.28, and
adding provisions for Meeting Conduct, By-Laws, Staff Assistance, and Reporting
Requirements.
