Staff Maps (FIRMs) that are used to regulate development with designated Special Flood Hazard Areas (SFHA). The National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) floodplain management regulations mandate flood insurance for structures in SFHAs that carry a mortgage backed by a federally regulated lender or servicer. The City regulates the NFIP requirements through its permit process. The primary change to the City of Tukwila FIRMs is that they will contain a designation for seclusion mapping, where a floodplain that is protected by a non-certified levee will be designated. The City of Kent hosted an open house in March where staff from the surrounding cities were available to answer questions. Next is a 90-day appeal period, and once the update is complete, each jurisdiction will be notified that the new FIRMs will become effective in six months. Staff plans to return to Committee with information on the levee certification progress. DISCUSSION ONLY. Amended Interlocal Agreement: Valley View West Hill Sewer Transfer Area E. Staff is seeking Committee approval to amend the interlocal agreement with Valley View Sewer District providing sanitary sewer service to the Loop area originally approved by the Council in May 2015. The amendment would add the Crystal Springs neighborhood, revise the time period for installation of manholes and piping, and add a provision that if the District does not complete the sewer installation by January 1, 2021 the City will complete it and the District will reimburse the costs. UNANIMOUS APPROVAL. FORWARD TO APRIL 9, 2018 COMMITTEE OF THE WHOLE. Strander Boulevard/Southwest 27 Street Extension Phase 3 Project Funding th F. Staff briefed the Committee on the estimated costs and funding of the Strander Boulevard/Southwest 27 Street Extension Phase 3 Project. The City has received over $4.5 th million to design the project, which is almost at 30% completion. Because construction of this project would require a significant City cost in excess of $7 million, staff is seeking direction on prioritization of this and other bridge projects. The 42 Avenue South Street Bridge replacement nd project after 2020 will also require significant city funding, currently estimated at $6 million. The City could terminate the Strander project prior to finishing design and return the grant funds. The City could also terminate the project at the end of design, not proceeding to construction in 2020. This option would allow the City up to 10 years to begin construction before triggering events where expended grant funds would have to be returned. Committee members asked clarifying questions, but generally expressed support for continuing through the design process for this important regional project and pursuing additional funding from grantors. The Committee felt there are sufficient off-ramps to feel comfortable moving forward. DISCUSSION ONLY. Grant Applications: Strander Boulevard/Southwest 27 Street Extension Phase 3 Project th G. Staff is seeking Committee approval to submit multiple grant applications to secure funding for construction of the Strander Boulevard Extension Phase 3 Project. Funding agencies could include the Puget Sound Regional Council, Transportation Improvement Board, King County Metro, Sound Transit, Union Pacific and BNSF Railroads, TIGER, and the City of Renton. In 2016, the application to PSRC was the highest scoring project not selected for funding, and staff believes the application is more attractive now due to it being a project of regional significance. If awarded, the grant would be $4.76 million. If the Committee approves, staff will pursue other grant opportunities as appropriate. UNANIMOUS APPROVAL. 4L;HMJILN;NCIH DZ )H@L;MNLO=NOL? #IGGCNN?? -CHON?MȚȚȚȚȚȚȚȚȚȚȚȚȚȚȚȚȚȚȚȚȚȚȚȚȚȚȚȚȚȚȚȚȚȚȚȚȚȚȚȚȚȚȚȚȚȚȚȚȚȚȚȚȚȚȚȚȚȚȚȚȚȚȚȚȚȚȚȚȚȚȚȚȚȚȚȚȚȚȚȚȚȚȚȚ-;L=B ǴǸț ǴDzdzǺ III.MISCELLANEOUS Committee members and staff agreed to move the location of the Transportation & Infrastructure Committee to the Hazelnut Conference Room in City Hall.
