SPECIAL PRESENTATIONS
a. Update on SCORE Jail
David Cline, City Administrator, introduced Penny Bartley, Executive Director of SCORE. Tukwila is one
of the founders of the South Correctional Entity (SCORE) jail. Several years ago, south -end cities entered
a joint agreement to create SCORE jail as a solution for their misdemeanor jail population.
Penny Bartley, Executive Director of SCORE, utilized a PowerPoint presentation to provide the Council
with a 2017 update. She stated the last time she presented to the Council was in 2014.
SCORE serves the Member Cities of Auburn, Burien, Des Moines, Federal Way, Renton, SeaTac and
Tukwila. These Member Cities were responsible for the organization of SCORE. It's managed by the
following boards, with the Administrative Board functioning as the governing body:
• Administrative Board
o 4 Elected Mayors (Mayor Ekberg represents the City of Tukwila)
o 3 Councilmembers (Representatives from Burien, SeaTac and Des Moines)
• Director reports to the Administrative Board
• Operations Board
o 7 Police Chiefs (Police Chief Linton serves on the Operations Board)
• Finance Committee
o 7 Finance Directors (Peggy McCarthy serves on the Finance Committee)
SCORE is the 2nd busiest jail in the state by volume of bookings. Ms. Bartley estimated that this year
SCORE will book about 23,000 inmates. For 2017, the facility is averaging approximately 1,800 bookings
a month. However, the facility has seen a record number of bookings (2,300) for September.
Approximately 4,000 - 5,000 inmates are moved into and out of the facility each month.
The average daily population for the month of October has increased from 590 in 2016, to 697 in 2017,
with a majority of the inmate population made up of misdemeanor offenders.
Tukwila City Council Committee of the Whole Minutes
October 23, 2017 Page 2 of 7
Ms. Bartley indicated many of those arrested on misdemeanor charges are arrested due to mental health
problems. SCORE provides mental health and drug and alcohol services. She also explained that there
are fewer inmates coming on violent charges or misdemeanor drug charges.
Of the Tukwila bookings, 13% of inmates identified Tukwila as their City of residence. 26% of inmates
identified another SCORE member city. 61% were from all other cities. Ms. Bartley stated that because
Tukwila is a transitory City and its population swells in the daytime, only a small percentage of bookings
are from those who reside in Tukwila.
One of the biggest challenges SCORE faces is that 68% of the inmates are under the influence of drugs
or alcohol at the time of booking. Of those 68%:
• 80% are under the influence of opiates, heroin, benzodiazepines or other drugs (may be in
combination with alcohol)
• 20% are under the influence of alcohol
SCORE also has a high percentage of inmates who are significantly mentally ill. Based on 2014 survey
results from SAMHSA (Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration), Washington's rate
of mental illness (20.77%) is higher than the national average (18.19%). The rate of serious mental illness
in Washington is also higher (5.14%) than the national average (3.7%).
Competency evaluations are another challenge. Ms. Bartley explained that when an individual is arrested,
they go before the judge, who determines whether the individual needs to be evaluated for competency
before he or she can proceed to trial. There has been an increase in the volume of competency orders
issued by the court statewide:
2014: 880
2015: 843
2016: 1,124
Ms. Bartley relayed that SCORE has an ongoing relationship with the Department of Social and Health
Services, which has placed a forensic psychologist in SCORE. As a result, SCORE's average wait time
for a competency evaluation is 4 days, which is well under the court's requirement of completion within 14
days. Ms. Bartley noted that SCORE also produces more requests for competency evaluations than any
other jail in the state.
NaphCare, SCORE's comprehensive medical and mental health provider, works with over 123 community
agencies to provide different types of services for inmates. Although many of these services are post -
release, while inmates are in custody, SCORE has a unique opportunity to identify those who may benefit
from services after they have been released.
There are many good stories to tell:
• One of only 2 jails in the state to receive accreditation with the National Commission on
Correctional Health Care
• First jail accredited by Washington Association of Sheriffs and Police Chiefs
• Only Jail in the state to have 3 certified jail managers and 8 certified jail officers
• Medication Assisted Treatment (MAT) services
• Expedited competency evaluations
• One of only 5 certified government finance officers in the State
• Great staff doing amazing work with an extremely high volume of work
Councilmember Duffle asked if inmates receive reentry training and if SCORE follows up with them after
they have been released. Ms. Bartley explained that 90% of inmates are released within 30 days and that
the average length of stay is approximately 8 days. Only a small percentage of inmates are incarcerated
beyond a month. These inmates are placed in jobs within the facility and can work towards jobskills and
certifications such as a food -handler's permit and ServSafe certification. All inmates have access to
services such as anger management, counseling, and GED programming. In response to Councilmember
Duffie's question regarding follow-up, Ms. Bartley explained that once inmates have been released, the
court is responsible for following up.
Tukwila City Council Committee of the Whole Minutes
October 23, 2017 Page 3 of 7
Councilmember Quinn expressed that he enjoyed hearing about the expansive services provided by
SCORE. He asked how services are spread across jurisdictions to ensure all inmates receive the care
they need. Ms. Bartley stated a huge percentage of inmates are coming to SCORE with challenges such
as drug and alcohol dependency, mental health, or homelessness. SCORE has been the beneficiary of
funding from King County, which has embedded many resources at the facility. Ms. Bartley relayed that
the mental and substance abuse treatment programs at SCORE have had a positive impact on the rate of
recidivism at SCORE, which is far lower at 35% compared to the national rate of 85%.
Councilmember Quinn remarked on the reduced availability of resources for treatment of mental illness
and asked if this has contributed to the increase in number of inmates at SCORE. Ms. Bartley agreed with
Mr. Quinn's assessment. She stated that individuals with private insurance and individuals who are
networked to social service organizations and/or the criminal justice system can receive medical
treatment, but anybody who falls in the middle of the spectrum falls through the cracks.
Councilmember Kruller shared that approximately a year ago, she encountered a testimony from
treatment professionals indicating they were not able to access inmates at SCORE to provide treatment.
Ms. Bartley explained that in September 2016, SCORE changed its medical provider and as of January
2017,1 is providing methadone treatment through its contractor, Evergreen Treatment Services.
Evergreen comes into the facility daily and provides courtesy dosing for inmates who are enrolled in
Medication Assisted Treatment programs. SCORE's providers also recently received licenses for
Suboxone and Vivitrol treatment administration. In response to a request for clarification from Ms. Kruller,
Ms. Bartley explained that SCORE was delayed in being able to offer these treatments because of the
time it took to find a licensed provider that could administer the treatments. Methadone is regulated by
both the state and federal governments.
Councilmember Kruller reported that a resident had disclosed their experience at SCORE to her and
informed her that food was very sparse during his stay. Ms. Kruller noted that according to a menu she
was able to review via email, SCORE has a substantive food menu. She asked how the jail ensures its
food service delivers per the menu. Ms. Bartley explained that a dietician reviews the menu quarterly, and
the facility undergoes all food inspections like restaurants. All inmates are given a physical inspection and
weighed upon admission, then checked to ensure they are not losing an unhealthy amount of weight.
Inmates can send a request to the medical department and kitchen for special dietary needs. Many
inmates do receive additional food. She invited Ms. Kruller to contact her directly for further information.
Councilmember McLeod referenced the slide for Bookings by Month (page 3 of the agenda packet) and
asked why there was a large increase in bookings from 2013 to 2014. Ms. Bartley replied that SCORE
opened in September of 2011. In 2012, SCORE expanded its services to the current 7 member cities and
began taking contract agencies in 2013 and 2014. SCORE also takes inmates from smaller jails in local
jurisdictions.
The Councilmembers thanked Ms. Bartley for her presentation.
b. Firefighter Deployments to Assist Regions Based on Weather Events Associated with
Hurricanes Harvey and Irma.
Jay Wittwer, Fire Chief, stated 6 members of the Fire Department responded to federal and state
deployments to assist with rescue and recovery efforts in response to Hurricanes Harvey and Irma. Chief
Wittwer expressed his pride in the Tukwila Fire Department for their leadership and great service.
He introduced Captains Andy Nevens and Mark Morales, who utilized a PowerPoint to provide an
overview of the Fire Department's deployment.
Late this summer, the southeast part of the country was hit by Hurricanes Harvey and Irma. The states of
Texas and Florida were hit very hard. Captains Nevens and Morales were deployed as a mission -ready
package consisting of 17 members to help with Hurricane Harvey. Captain Pat McCoy and firefighter Pat
O'Brien were also deployed to Texas. The team performed search and rescue operations, which lasted a
few days, and primarily helped the Houston Fire Department with 911 distress calls they couldn't access
due to the floods. Captain Nevens showed pictures of the floodwaters in the Houston area.
Tukwila City Council Committee of the Whole Minutes
October 23, 2017 Page 4 of 7
The mission -ready package finished its assignment in Houston, and drove back towards Seattle. As the
team approached the Tri -Cities, they were contacted by FEMA and deployed to Georgia to assist with
rescue efforts in response to Hurricane Irma. The team remained at Robins Airforce Base in Georgia for
approximately a week as part of a backup Type 1 Package. Captain Nevens explained that a Type 1
Package consists of approximately 80 members and can complete any operation. During their stay in
Georgia, the Tukwila Fire Department participated in trainings and learned valuable lessons on
responding to future rescue operations.
Captains Nevens and Morales expressed they are grateful for the opportunity to serve and proud to work
for the City of Tukwila.
The Councilmembers asked clarifying questions regarding the presentation and expressed great
appreciation to Captain Nevens and Morales for their exemplary performance.
PUBLIC COMMENTS
There were no public comments.
SPECIAL ISSUES
a. An Ordinance for Short Term Debt Re -Financing for the Urban Renewal Project.
Councilmember Seal indicated this item was discussed at the Finance Committee meeting on October
17, 2017. The committee members were unanimous in recommending approval.
Peggy McCarthy, Finance Director, explained the City purchased three crime -ridden motels in,2014 for
$3.6 million and an additional motel and structure in 2015 for $1.6 million fora total of $5.2 million. The
City financed these purchases through a taxable 20 -year $3.85 million bond that was issued to Zions First
National Bank and a taxable 3 -year $2.25 million note issued to Bank of the West in December 2014.
It was previously anticipated that the note would be paid from proceeds of the sale of the property, but
this has not yet occurred. The 3 -year note comes due on December 1, 2017.
Based on feedback from the Finance Committee on June 6, 2017, City staff and PFM, the City's financial
advisor, moved forward with the solicitation process for replacement financing. A replacement financing
Request for Proposals was published on September 7, 2017, and of the seven banks that responded,
Cashmere Valley Bank offered the most favorable terms.
Ms. McCarthy introduced Duncan Brown of PFM, and Deanna Gregory of Pacifica Law Group, the City's
bond counsel.
Mr. Brown utilized a PowerPoint to provide an overview of the costs and terms of the proposed Limited
Tax General Obligation (LTGO) Bond, 2017.
Review of 2014 LTGO Bonds and Note
• In December 2014, the City issued its $2.25 million Limited Tax General Obligation Bond
Anticipation Note, 2014 and $3.85 million Limited Tax General Obligation Bonds, 2014
o Both were used to acquire properties along Tukwila International Boulevard (TIB)
o The 2014 Note has a final maturity of December 1, 2017
o The 2014 Bond has a final maturity of December 1, 2034, and is subject to optional
redemption on December 1, 2019.
• At the time of issuance, the City anticipated using proceeds from the sale of the TIB properties to
repay the 2014 Note, however the properties have not yet been sold
2014 Note — Considerations
The City has several options to address the upcoming maturity of the 2017 Note:
• Refinance with cash
Tukwila City Council Committee of the Whole Minutes
October 23, 2017 Page 5 of 7
• Refinance with Tong -term Limited Tax GO (non -voted) debt
• Extension or replacement
o Most flexible option (could be refinanced on a longer-term basis with other options)
Limited Tax General Obligation Bond, 2017 (Taxable)
• The holder of the existing 2014 Note (Bank of the West) is not interested in extending the existing
facility
• On September 7th, PFM distributed a Request for Proposals for replacement financing on behalf
of the City
o Distributed to 18 banks, of which 7 responded
o Cashmere Valley Bank provided the most advantageous financing terms for the proposed
Limited Tax General Obligation Bond, 2017 (Taxable)
• Five year final maturity (December 1, 2022)
• Initial rate of 2.6%, increasing to 2.8% in year 4 and 3.0% in year 5
• Estimated "True Interest Cost" of 2.71% through maturity
• Prepayable at any time
The Councilmembers asked clarifying questions to include:
• A $2.25 million note was issued in 2014 but the City is refinancing for $2.35 million. Why is there
a difference? Mr. Brown explained the $2.35 million is a not -to -exceed number and built in
because at the time proposals were solicited from various banks, up -front fees were still
unknown. Cashmere Valley Bank is not proposing any bank or legal fees. There are some fees
that the City would incur, including those from its financial advisory bond counsel, but this is
expected to be under $40,000.
• Does refinancing put pressure on the City to sell the property as soon as possible? Ms. McCarthy
explained the terms of the note give the City 5 years to sell the property. Otherwise, the City can
also consider other options such as obtaining a new debt or paying off the debt with City funds.
• Page 53 of the agenda packet shows a chart with debt extending to 2039. Is this all the City's
debt? Ms. McCarthy responded in the affirmative and noted 2039 includes debt for SCORE.
• What are the terms of the original bond issuance? Mr. Brown relayed that the 2014 Note was
issued at about $2.25 million and continues to bear interest at a variable rate of approximately
2.25%. Mr. Brown clarified that Cashmere Valley Bank's terms lock in the City's cost of capital at
today's market rates and doesn't subject the City to additional interest rate risk over the life of the
bond.
• Is there a financial risk to keeping the property rather than selling it? Ms. McCarthy concurred
with Mr. Quinn's assessment that holding onto the property is not a big financial risk to the City,
especially as property values in Tukwila have risen and will likely continue to rise. Ms. Gregory
noted that while the historical expectation has been to use the proceeds from the sale of the
property to pay the 2014 Note, from a legal perspective, there's no pledge of the property or of
the proceeds. There is plenty of flexibility.
• How did we arrive at the decision to move forward with refinancing? Ms. McCarthy stated the City
considered other alternatives such as paying off the debt from the General Fund or rolling the
debt into a longer-term debt instrument. However, because of the financial challenges the City will
be facing in the next few years, refinancing and extending the debt is more prudent so the City
car. keep funds available for the Public Safety Plan.
COUNCIL CONSENSUS EXISTED TO FORWARD THIS ITEM TO THE CONSENT AGENDA AT THE
NEXT REGULAR MEETING.
b. A Collective Bargaining Agreement with the United Steelworkers Police Non -Commissioned
Employees
Stephanie Brown, Human Resources Director, stated she is pleased to bring forward a collective
bargaining agreement to the Council.
City staff, the City's Labor Relations Consultant, and the representatives of the United Steelworkers
(USW) Police Non -Commissioned Local No. 9241 (04) opened labor negotiations on November 18, 2016,
to reach an agreement on a successor labor contract. A tentative agreement negotiated in good faith
Tukwila City Council Committee of the Whole Minutes
October 23, 2017 Page 6 of 7
between the parties was reached during mediation on September 8, 2017, which resulted in a two-year
agreement for 2017-2018.
Ms. Brown explained that the collective bargaining agreement provides for a wage increase of 1.8% in
2017, and 2.5% in 2018. They will also receive two (2) floating holidays, and an increase to the shift
differential for those employees who work between the hours of 5:00 p.m. — 7:00 a.m. In addition, the
USW Police Non -Commissioned members have agreed to accept the City's Self -Insured Medical Benefit
Plan Design changes, which will result in savings to our health care plan. Other negotiated changes to
this successor labor agreement resulted in clarification of language and process, for ease of
administration, interpretation and application.
She noted the Council has been provided the collective bargaining agreement under separate cover.
Councilmember Quinn requested clarification on the mediator's role in the process. Ms. Brown relayed
the mediator's function is to be a neutral third party and resolve issues when negotiations are at an
impasse. Mr. Quinn asked if labor negotiations are consistent with the current City ordinance process. Ms.
Brown affirmed the guiding principles of the City drive the negotiation process.
Councilmember Kruller asked who the mediator is and how we picked them. Ms. Brown stated the
mediator is through the Washington State Public Employment Relations Commission (PERC). The
commission is represented by state employees who are certified mediators, labor attorneys, and
examiners.
COUNCIL CONSENSUS EXISTED TO FORWARD THIS ITEM TO THE CONSENT AGENDA AT THE

Rachel Bianchi, Communications and Government Relations Manager, utilized a Powerpoint presentation
to provide an overview of this issue.
The City of Tukwila is implementing the Public Safety Plan, which includes a voter -approved bond to fund
the construction of three new fire stations, pay for fire apparatus and equipment for 20 years, and
construct a new justice center to house the Tukwila Police Department and Municipal Court. The Plan
also includes a new consolidated Public Works facility, to be funded equally from the General and
Enterprise funds. A critical step to implementing the Public Safety Plan is acquiring properties needed for
these new buildings.
Origins of the Public Safety Plan
In 2007 the City initiated a seismic study of all of its buildings to better understand how City operations
and services would be impacted in the event of a major earthquake. The results of this study led to a
three-year comprehensive review of existing and future space needs and development of a series of
recommendations that ultimately fed into the Public Safety Plan. The Essential Government Services
Facility Plan identified that many City buildings are significantly deficient and constructed in such a way
that makes retrofits unfeasible due to cost. The useful life of many of these buildings — Fire Stations 51,
52 and 54, the 6300 building located next to City Hall, and both the Minkler and Long Shops — has ended.
The City also spent a multi-year effort investigating the pros and cons of joining a Regional Fire Authority
(RFA). A committee of firefighters, community members, Kent RFA representatives, Councilmembers
and City staff were involved in the investigation of this potential change. Ultimately, the Council chose not
to move forward with joining the RFA — largely because of the overwhelming response of Tukwila
community members wanting to keep the Tukwila Fire Department independent.
The foundation of both the facilities overview and RFA investigation rested on the City's commitment to
public safety and ensuring the seamless provision of these critical services, even after a major seismic
event. These two converged into the Public Safety Plan, which was adopted by the Council and ultimately
by the voters of Tukwila through the passage of the Public Safety Plan bonds.
Siting Process
After the passage of the Public Safety Plan, the City created a Public Safety Plan Siting Advisory
Committee (SAC) to provide oversight and advice on the siting of the five facilities included in the Plan, as
well as community outreach activities and efficacy. The SAC is comprised of four community members,
two Councilmembers and the Public Works Director. It has met on a monthly basis and has been very
involved in the siting process, including providing a recommendation to the City Council on final sites.
Tukwila City Council Regular Meeting Minutes
November 6, 2017 Page 4 of 9
Early in 2017 the City initiated a fire response times study to determine the best locations for fire stations
52 and 54. The new site for Fire Station 51 (South 180'h and Southcenter Parkway) was previously
identified during the Segale development agreement process. It is critical that fire stations are located
strategically throughout the City to ensure equitable response times across the City. FACETS, the firm
hired by the City to perform the study, reviewed a variety of factors from travel times to natural barriers
such as the river to areas with high numbers of historical 911 calls to determine the best location for each
fire station. The sites included for acquisition are in those areas identified by FACETS as the best
locations for 52 and 54.
The City developed a set of siting criteria for each facility. These criteria were shared with the community
at a March 2017 Open House and updated through feedback heard at that event prior to being adopted
by the Council. The City then identified a long list of potential properties for each building. Potential
properties that did not meet key criteria on the list — such as size, site access, core operational
requirements, and access to transit — were immediately removed from the list, creating a smaller list.
Each of the properties on the smaller list was then scored based on the siting criteria.
In August 2017, the City hosted an additional open house, which allowed attendees to meet the architects
for the fire stations and justice center, review a map that detailed potential zones for the various buildings,
and provide feedback on the potential areas for these new buildings. This open house was very well
attended, with an excess of 150 people visiting during the evening event. The City has used a variety of
communication vehicles to ensure that community members are aware of the ongoing issues associated
with the Public Safety Plan, including: Tukwila Reporter, Social Media, E -Hazelnut, Open House events,
TukwilaWA.gov/Public Safety Plan, City Council presentations, Online Open Houses, Community
meetings, the Community Connectors Program, and Postcards.
On Monday, October 16, 2017, the City Council was presented with the recommendation of the Public
Safety Plan Siting Advisory Committee, which was to acquire the following assemblages generally for the
new facilities:
• Fire Station 54 — Northeast corner of 42m Ave. South and South 1401h Street.
• Justice Center — Properties between Tukwila International Boulevard and Military Road near
South 150'h Street.
• Public Works Facility — Three properties between the Duwamish River, Tukwila International
Boulevard, South 112'h Street and East Marginal Way.
Additionally, the Committee recommended that the City leverage its existing City Hall campus property
and site Fire Station 52 on the existing north parking lot. The Council passed a motion that night directing
staff to return with an ordinance to acquire the properties listed above.
Property Acquisition
State law authorizes condemnations by a city for public buildings, amongst other reasons, within the limits
of the City. Washington law requires that the local government requiring appropriation of the property pay
just compensation. While it is the City's intent to negotiate in good faith with property owners toward a
final and voluntary transaction, it is possible that it may encounter property owners unwilling to sell.
Additionally, by adopting legal condemnation authority, property owners are eligible for specific benefits
not available to sellers not under the threat of condemnation. Therefore, staff is requesting condemnation
authority for all of the properties identified for the Public Safety Plan that are not already owned by the
City of Tukwila.
Property owners were notified of this potential action via a letter sent on October 16, 2017. Additionally,
formal legal notification occurred via certified mail on October 19, 2017. Potentially affected businesses
were notified in person and via letter as well. The City also published notice of the potential action in the
newspaper on October 23 and October 30, 2017.
Should the Council authorize condemnation authority at the Regular Meeting on November 6, 2017, staff
will continue to negotiate with property owners with the goal of reaching agreement on purchasing
properties. If the parties are unable to reach such an agreement, the City will file petitions with the court
in December 2017, as necessary.

No additional action will be required by the Council with regard to property acquisition except the
authorization to execute purchase and sale agreements.
Mayor Ekberg called for public comments on this issue.
Charles Chai, 15015 International Boulevard, introduced his spouse, Sook Choi, who runs the Riverton
Heights Grocery store. She has been running the business for 9 years, and it has been there for 80
years. She has a good relationship with her clientele, which is comprised of people from many
ethnicities, and she performs charitable work in the community. He relayed that location is very important
for businesses, and he feels it is ludicrous to put the Fire Department in this location. She paid $410,000
nine years ago for the business and should receive that amount in this process.
Melissa Wells, 11234 Tukwila International Boulevard, has a small business at 112th and Tukwila
International Blvd., but does not own the property. She inquired about what happens to the business
owners if they are unable to move to a new location.
Yongsin Kang, 15029 Tukwila International Boulevard, manages the property at this location. He has
been a resident for the past 30 years and is surprised about the choice of location. There is such a great
international community in this area that the City should be proud of. From his perspective, there are
other locations that should be considered.
Will Gillispie, 4116 South 131st Street, is a member of the Public Safety Plan Siting Advisory Committee.
They have been meeting since May to consider locations for the needed facilities. The decisions were
difficult, and a great deal. of consideration was given to the businesses that would be affected by the
decision. The Public Safety facilities have to be placed somewhere, and the Committee had to think
about response times, crime rates, and the most positive outcomes for the future of the community. The
Committee felt strongly that these are the correct locations for the facilities.
Tawfik Maudah lives at 3210 South 176th Street in SeaTac and has owned and operated Bayview Motor
Club LLC at 15001 Tukwila International Boulevard since 2013 and employs 10 people. He was
surprised about the location choice and the lack of notification about this project until last week. This has
created fear among those involved. While they support safety and new facilities, they would like the
location to be reconsidered. He has just start reaping the benefits of his business, and this will cause
hardships for many in the area. They would like more time as they have not been involved in this up until
last week. If the location will not be reconsidered, then the businesses should be relocated as a group to
a new site. The businesses involved benefit from being together.
Abdullahi Jama, 19473 115th Place SE, is from One America, an immigrant rights organization. He is
here on behalf of the Somali community. This is his community even though he does not live here.
Some of the businesses in this area have been there for 20 years and are positive contributors to the
community. Their families and community will suffer based on this situation, and the City will lose
revenue. They would like the City to consider the best place for these businesses to relocate. He
expressed concern that the 16 businesses were not notified or a part of the process. They request that
this plan be revisited and a solution found that is suitable to this community.
Abdi Adan, 428 SW 112th Place, Seattle, said their grocery store has been open since 2009. Their
inventory is 97% food, with no alcohol and no cigarettes. Approximately 1,000 people visit their store
every month to buy local products that are vital to this community. They employee 5-6 people, and when
people come here from Africa, they can be trained in the store to gain future employment. Expecting the
businesses to move deprives them of opportunities to thrive and victimizes them without a plan for
relocation.
Fowzi Mohamed, 15035 Tukwila International Boulevard, is the owner and manager of Marwa
Restaurant, which opened in 1998. He expressed concern that the 16 business owners were not
consulted about this situation. Moving the businesses will affect the families involved and the community.
It is costly to move a business, and he is requesting the Council reconsider the decision and seek the
consent of the business owners.
Tukwila City Council Regular Meeting Minutes
November 6, 2017 Page 6 of 9
Simon Castle, 11210 Tukwila International Boulevard, is the manager of the George Heiser Body
Company. This company was established in 1939, and this will be the 3rd time this has happened to
them. The last occurrence was 15 years ago when Sound Transit took their property in Seattle. They
have 4 acres, employ 50 people, and are the largest repair and paint facility of commercial trucks, trailers
and buses in the northwest. They have contracts with the City of Seattle, King County and Boeing, and
approximately 5,500 customers for which relocation would be an economic burden to both their
customers and to the business itself. They received this notice a week ago, with no idea this was coming.
They have a year to relocate and feel finding another piece of property is impossible. Moving their 3 large
paint booths would cost close to $1 million. He is asking the Council to give thought to this decision and
the burdens it will create.
Abdulhakim Hashi, 9456 13th Ave SW, Seattle, said his business has been at 15211 International
Boulevard for the last 20 years. He received an announcement on November 2 that was dated October
31 that the area will be taken for the justice project. He is unclear as to what kind of criteria was used to
make the decision. He feels there is other land in Tukwila that could be used for this project. He
expressed concern that the business owners were not involved in the decision. He is asking the Council
to delay action tonight and involve all concerned stakeholders in this important matter.
Abdidahir Sugulle, 3020 South 154th Avenue, SeaTac, said he has managed the Have a Nice Day
Jewelry store for 10 years, and he employs 4 people including himself. This is how they support their
families and serve the Somali, east African, and middle eastern communities. If they have to move from
this area, he does not know how they will end up. Creating a new business elsewhere is a great
hardship. He is asking that the plan be reconsidered with a focus on the consequences for so many
affected people.
Abdirizaq Sheikomar, 14828 Military Road South, said he owns the business at 15001 Tukwila
International Boulevard. He started the business in 2012, and it took 5 years to develop a customer base.
He said they received this letter on October 31 and since the decision was made on October 16, the
businesses should have been notified earlier. They are hoping the City can find a different location and
leave the businesses in place. While the property owners will receive payment, the business owners will
not receive financial compensation.
Pam Carter, 4115 South 139th Street, expressed disappointment at receiving a postcard that was
postmarked last Monday for potential action to be taken tonight. The community deserved more time on
this. She reviews agenda materials regularly and has seen nothing regarding the location of the Public
Safety Plan facilities. She is not aware of the reasons why the locations were chosen, and there is no
where to go to acquire information. This information was very unexpected, and the process was
disrespectful to the citizens.
Ron Lamb, 4251 South 139th Street, relayed that he lives near the proposed site for Fire Station 54. He
did not know anything about this until receiving a postcard last week. He has many questions, and there
has not been enough time to gather information. This process feels rushed, and he would like to see
more time provided to the community.
Jerry Thornton, 3219 South 142nd Place, is a member of the Public Safety Plan Siting Advisory
Committee. Events were held at a number of venues to demonstrate what was occurring, with
opportunities to understand or be advised of the plan and process. Some were displayed and discussed
in the overview tonight. The committee was careful to ensure the locations were based on the
established criteria. He is in support of the proposed action this evening and hopes the Council will
approve the recommendation.
Kathleen Wilson, 4803 South 162nd Street, is a member of the Public Safety Plan Siting Advisory
Committee. She relayed that the committee used criteria in their deliberations, and no decisions or
recommendations were taken lightly. There were many needs and preferences from citizens, and the
process was thorough. With the options provided, they made a recommendation that met the majority of
the criteria.
Tukwila City Council Regular Meeting Minutes
November 6, 2017 Page 7 of 9
Tod Bookless, 16218 46th Avenue South, is a member of the Public Safety Plan Siting Advisory
Committee and has lived here for 16 years. He explained that the City commissioned a professional
study (FACETS) that included over 200 maps of potential locations for fire stations. Criteria was based
on historic response times and population centers, with a goal of 4 -minute response times to the
community. Additionally, a professional real estate analyst looked at the locations for each station to
assess geographic or environmental concerns. There were open house events, community feedback
reflecting location preference, and consideration of the needs of the Fire Department. As the list got
smaller, there were 2 to 3 locations for each site for which the criteria could then be applied. They ruled
out locations that would displace residents such as apartment complexes. He became involved on the
Committee based on an article in "The Hazelnut" that asked for public participation. All of the Public
Safety Plan Siting Advisory Committee meetings were public with documentation posted on the City
website.
Nasir Tura, 15029 Tukwila International Boulevard. said he is a business tenant at this location. He said
that most of the immigrant community here were displaced from their native lands and came here for a
sense of belonging that will now be lost. He expressed concern that none of the businesses were aware
of this and it seemed disrespectful. There will be many hardships associated with this, and he hopes the
Council will do the best for this community.
Gail Reed, 4204 South 1391h Street, has lived in Tukwila for a very long time and was unaware of the
location of 42nd and 139th for the Fire Station. While she has now heard about open houses and
information, she is unaware of how that information was disbursed. From her perspective, no one wants
a fire station close by due to the noise. She would like the City to find a better location and consider land
closer to the new library.
Ali Abdulla, 6419 29th Avenue SW, Seattle, said this is not just about business owners, but the whole
community. He has great concern about his mom, aunt and sister-in-law who do not drive but are able to
walk to get groceries here in Tukwila. He is fearful for them if they are relocated as they would have to
take buses and could get lost. The businesses in this area support the Somali immigrant community for
which there are hundreds of thousands of people. He grew up here and does not want his community to
be torn apart; this is serious; it is not a joke. They are contributors to the community and this is where
their families live, work and play. The businesses also offer employment to youth, which keeps them out
of jail. He asked the Council to have "their backs."
Quanh Nguyen, 15019 Tukwila International Boulevard, owns a nail salon that has been there for 10
years. While they have owned the business for 2 years, they understand the basis for wanting to have
the Justice Center in this area. They just heard about this from the property owner last week. He is
asking the Council to provide more time before making a decision.
Mehdi Jumale, 15045 International Boulevard, said his family started the business in 1999. He was
raised here and went to Foster High School. The businesses in the area have made many sacrifices and
have contributed to the community. They provide unique products that are not easily available. He said
his 2 brothers will now share their opinions on this matter.
Garad Haji, 15045 International Boulevard, relayed that the Justice Center location is where their
business is currently located. This is a center for African immigrants, as well as a business hub. It caught
them off guard that the City would want to take away businesses from a particular group. The products
provided are imported and would not be found in Safeway or Walgreens, and customers come from as far
north as Seattle and from Tacoma. This disproportionately affects their community and is then ironically
named a "justice center," as it takes away from their economic opportunities. He feels this is a grave
injustice.
Mohamed Sharif, 15045 International Boulevard, said his brothers and sister have all worked hard to get
here. He asked the Council to consider the short notice that has been talked about many times tonight.
They have come here from the war-torn nation of Somalia. We came to one of the greatest nations in the
world and made Tukwila our home. Now we must find new places to live and work and serve our
community. From his standpoint, this is a horrible idea and has to be stopped. He asked the Council to
stop this tonight.
Tukwila City Council Regular Meeting Minutes
November 6, 2017 Page 8 of 9
Mohamed Ashoux, 22810 30th Avenue, Des Moines, said he has one of the business that will be
destroyed. He is surprised by this decision, and there are other places that can be chosen. While he
wants a Justice Center, he asked the Council to choose a different location.
The Councilmembers asked clarifying questions of staff regarding this issue with responses as follows:
• Outreach to the public regarding the Public Safety Plan and the Public Safety Plan Siting Advisory
Committee involved use of the Tukwila Reporter, Social Media, E -Hazelnut, Hazelnut Newsletter,
Open House events, the City website at TukwilaWa.gov/Public Safety Plan, City Council
presentations, Online Open House events, Community meetings, the Community Connectors
Program, and Postcards.
• By law, the property owners had to be served with certified mail on this issue.
• While business notification is not required bylaw, City staff did send mailings and hand delivered
letters to business owners. The role of the City's Economic Development staff is to prepare a plan for
business assistance, which will be brought to the Public Safety Committee. The City has a
relationship with the Small Business Development Center at Highline Community College that will be
a resource. There may be opportunities for business relocation to the Tukwila Village site.
• The process for recruiting for the Public Safety Plan Siting Advisory Committee involved extensive
outreach for 4-6 weeks in March, however, it was extended for 4 weeks to get a good representation
from the community. The composition of the 7 -member committee included 2 Councilmembers, the
Public Works Director, 3 residents, and 1 business representative. There were approximately 6
meetings that were open to the public, and the agendas were put in the Laserfiche system on the City
website.
• The Public Safety Bond Financial Oversight Committee recruitment involved posting on the City
website, and Councilmembers reaching out to their networks. Councilmember Seal announced it at
4-5 Council meetings in a row.
• The criteria for siting of the Justice Center, Fire Stations, and Public Works Shops involved avoiding
displacing people living in residential housing. For the fire station locations, the FACETS study was a
guide. The commitment was made to adopt data -driven criteria to ensure an equitable response time
throughout the community. The Fire Station 54 location choice had the best response time. The
Public Works proposed site is the size needed for the City shops and has good access from Tukwila
International Boulevard, East Marginal Way, and 112th Avenue South. In terms of the Justice Center
site, it is essential for the Police staff to be able to get on and off arterials quickly to respond to
incidents in the community.
• As part of the Public Safety Bond process, the City spent 3 years going out to the public with open
house events and public meetings to look at City facilities. Outreach to the public is part of the City's
standard process for large initiatives.
• City staff will come back with a timeline for next steps as it relates to the affected properties and
businesses.
The Councilmembers provided the following comments regarding this issue:
• The Council cares about the property and business owners affected by this situation and take
seriously the comments offered this evening. A decision tonight does not mean something happens
tomorrow. It is imperative that the City work with those affected to provide a softer landing and
provide available resources with ongoing communication. The Business Development Center is free
and is another tool to help the affected businesses.
• Any site selections for the new facilities would likely meet with opposition from someone.
• An email was referenced from citizens who expressed excitement at the location chosen for Fire
Station 54 and look forward to living nearby.
• The Public Safety Plan process has been both transparent and difficult at times. The complexity of the
community creates communication challenges, and the City will strive to keep improving.
• An opportunity exists for those affected by this issue to become more directly involved in City
business.
• The current City facilities are 30 years old and are not seismically sound. The building most likely to
go down first in an earthquake is Fire Station 51. When the City went before the voters with a Public
Safety Bond, it came with a commitment to build new facilities. The decisions about where to put the
facilities were data driven and based on response times that save the lives of our citizens. The costs
are going up every day, and the City must move forward with the Public Safety Plan projects. Fiscal
responsibility is a core function of the City Council.

City of Tukwila, Washington
Limited Tax General Obligation Bond, 2017 (Taxable)
Page 3 of 3
Amount: Approximately $2,350,000.
Tax Status: Taxable. Interest on the Bond is not intended to be excluded from gross
income for federal income tax purposes.
Term: The City invites potential lenders to provide 3, 4, and 5 year term options.
Principal: Principal of the Bond will be payable in full on December 1, 2020; December 1,
2021; or December 1, 2022, depending on the term (3, 4, or 5 years) agreed on
between the selected lender and the City.
Interest: The City will accept Proposals contemplating either fixed and/or variable interest
rates, and will consider interest payments on a monthly, quarterly, or semiannual
basis.
Prepayment: The City prefers flexible prepayment options.
Purpose: Proceeds of the Bond will be used to prepay the City's Limited Tax General
Obligation Bond Anticipation Note, 2014 and to pay costs of issuance for the Bond.
Proceeds of the 2014 Note were originally used to acquire certain property located
on Tukwila International Boulevard (TIB) for the purpose of redevelopment. As
part of its redevelopment plan, the City demolished the improvements and has
offered the vacant land for sale. The City anticipates selling the TIB properties to
interested private developers, and estimates it may take three to five years to sell
the property. If and when the property is sold, the City expects to use such
proceeds to redeem all or a portion of the Bond, if and to the extent such proceeds
are available for and allocated to such purpose. The Bond is a limited tax general
obligation of the City as described under "Security," and will not be secured by any
proceeds of the sale of such property.
Security: The Bond will be issued as a limited tax general obligation of the City. The City
will irrevocably covenant and agree in the Bond Ordinance that it will include in its
budget and levy an ad valorem tax upon all the property within the City subject to
taxation in an amount that will be sufficient, together with all other revenues and
money of the City legally available for such purposes, to pay the principal of and
interest on the Bond as the same becomes due. The City will irrevocably pledge
that such tax will be within and as a part of the tax permitted to cities without a vote
of the people. The full faith, credit and resources of the City will be pledged
irrevocably for the annual levy and collection of such taxes and for the prompt
payment of such principal and interest.
Bond owners will not have a security interest in particular revenues or assets of
the City. The City's ability to raise taxes is subject to certain limitations. The Bond
will not constitute a debt or indebtedness of the State of Washington, or any
political subdivision thereof other than the City.
Purchase Price: 100%

Method of Sale:

under paragraph 1, 2, 3, or 7 of Rule 501(a) of the Securities Act of 1933 (the "Act")).
The Bond will not be registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission or any
other regulatory body. Accordingly, the Bond will not be transferable unless a subsequent

Re: City of Tukwila, Washington
Limited Tax General Obligation Bond, 2017 (Taxable) - $2,276,000
Ladies and Gentlemen:
We have acted as bond counsel to the City of Tukwila, Washington (the "City"), and
have examined a certified transcript of the proceedings taken in the matter of the issuance by the
City of its Limited Tax General Obligation Bond, 2017 (Taxable) (the "Bond"), dated as of the
date hereof, in the aggregate principal amount of $2,276,000, issued pursuant to Ordinance
No. 2553 (the "Bond Ordinance") of the City to prepay the City's outstanding Limited Tax
General Obligation Bond Anticipation Note, 2014 (Taxable Non -Revolving Line of Credit) and
to pay the costs for issuance of the Bond. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall
have the meanings given such terms in the Bond Ordinance.
The Bond may be prepaid prior to maturity as provided in the Bond Ordinance.
Regarding questions of fact material to our opinion, we have relied on representations of
the City in the Bond Ordinance and in the certified proceedings and on other certifications of
public officials and others furnished to us without undertaking to verify the same by independent
investigation.
Based on the foregoing, we are of the opinion that, under existing law:
1. The Bond has been legally issued and constitutes a valid and binding special
limited obligation of the City, enforceable in accordance with its terms, except to the extent that
the enforcement of the rights and remedies of the holders and owners of the Bond may be limited
by laws relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium, reorganization or other similar laws of
general application affecting the rights of creditors, by the application of equitable principles and
the exercise of judicial discretion.

2. The Bond Ordinance is a legal, valid and binding obligation of the City, has been
duly authorized, executed and delivered and is enforceable in accordance with its terms, except
to the extent that enforcement may be limited by laws relating to bankruptcy, insolvency,
moratorium, reorganization or other similar laws of general application affecting the rights of
creditors, by the application of equitable principles and the exercise of judicial discretion.
3. Both principal of and interest on the Bond is payable out of annual levies of ad
valorem taxes to be made upon all of the taxable property within the City permitted to be levied
without a vote of the electorate in the amounts which, together with other available funds, will be
sufficient to pay such principal and interest as the same shall become due.
4. Interest on the Bond is not intended to be exempt from federal income taxes.
Except as expressly stated above, we express no opinion regarding any tax consequences
related to the ownership, sale or disposition of the Bond, or the amount, accrual or receipt of
interest on, the Bond. The owners of the Bond should consult their tax advisors regarding the
applicability of any collateral tax consequences of owning the Bond.
This opinion is given as of the date hereof, and we assume no obligation to update, revise
or supplement this opinion to reflect any facts or circumstances that may hereafter come to our
attention or any changes in law that may hereafter occur.
Very truly yours,
PACIFICA LAW GROUP LLP
