The Tukwila City Council looks forward to a community Justice Center that is modern, secure, and efficient in its delivery of outstanding Police and Court services. We envision a beautiful building that is aesthetically reflective of Tukwila's historical and cultural character, environmentally and fiscally responsible, and that will serve as a safe and inclusive space that will foster pride in our community.

Since January cases in all categories have been reduced and those open for more than 3 years have been reduced by 61%. The average number of days to close a case is 39 days as opposed to 88 days for cases in 2016. Staff is working with the City Prosecutor and City Attorney to develop a more streamlined enforcement process and will be returningwith the proposed code amendments on September 5. Staff is also working on a project to update residential use definitions to resolve discrepancies within the code. Committee members and staff discussed the impact that universal garbage collection would have on neighborhoods. Councilmember Quinn suggested that repeat code violators could be put into corrective status and required to subscribe to garbage service, while responsible self -haulers could still opt out.

Chair McLeod noted that he recently heard from a resident dissatisfied with the length of the permitting process. Staff will follow up with that person directly. DISCUSSION ONLY. B.
