SUBJECT:
Flood Plain Management Ordinance and Map Update
ISSUE
The City's Flood Plain Management Ordinance was passed in 1980 and updated in 1988 and 2002. On May 15, 2020, the
Federal Emergency Management Agency notified all Washington jurisdictions participating in the National Flood Insurance
Program (NFIP) that our Flood Ordinance would require updates to comply with new federal and state regulations and to adopt
revised Flood Insurance Rate Maps (FIRMs).
BACKGROUND
Public Works used the State's model flood ordinance as a template to update the Flood Ordinance. This draft was sent to the
Department of Ecology (DOE) and Department of Commerce for review and approval. The ordinance is also undergoing
SEPA review.
DISCUSSION
Both the current ordinance and the draft ordinance include standards and provisions that encourage sound floodplain
management allowing property owners to obtain flood insurance at a more affordable rate.
The draft ordinance adopts revised FIRMs that better reflect the actual Special Flood Hazard Areas (SFHA) within the City.
The FIRM updates were done for all jurisdictions along the Green River. In addition, the draft ordinance also clarifies
language concerning development within SFHA. This includes the requirement to obtain a Flood Permit for activities such as
filling and grading within a SFHA even if a structure is not built.
Substantive updates include:
• Revised definitions that more closelv follow the definitions used by DOE
• Revised code language changes to match language used by DOE
• AAprovision to exclude storage or processing of hazardous materials
• AAprovision to include filling and grading as activities requiring a flood permit
• A provision limiting uses of areas constructed below the lowest floor to parking and storage
Council is beina asked to review the chances to the Ordinance at this time. An emeraencv ordinance is beina prepared to
allow the required changes to take place by the August 19, 2020 FEMA deadline, tentatively scheduled for the August 3, 2020
Council meeting. Staff has been notified that the SEPA approval and the required appeal period will not be completed until
after the FEMA deadline of August 19, 2020. Once the SEPA process has been completed, the final ordinance will be
presented to Council for approval, anticipated for September 2020.
FISCAL IMPACT
Additional development and land clearing activities within the SFHA will now be regulated. This will require additional staff time
to review and approve Flood Permits.
RECOMMENDATION
Council is being asked to approve the updated Flood Plain Management Ordinance and consider this item at the July 27,
2020 Committee of the Whole meeting and subsequent August 03 2020 Rena Liar August 24, 2020 Special Meeting.

This past Thursday our Governor explained that COVID cases continue to increase in the State, recently hitting
both the highest single day rate of new cases and highest weekly rolling average since the pandemic began.
Based on these numbers, he said that we are "on an unsustainable path in the spread of the virus" and
announced new Safe Start phase limits. Effective July 20, the number of individuals allowed in social gatherings
during Phase 3 will be reduced from 50 people to 10 people. Counties in Phase 2 may continue to have social
gatherings of up to five people.
Additionally, the governor and secretary announced a prohibition on all live entertainment, indoor or outdoor,
statewide. This includes drive-in concerts, comedy clubs and music in restaurants.
The governor noted that if Washingtonians continue failing to adhere to mask -wearing and social distancing,
today's announcement may be a forerunner to more rollbacks.
The City is continuing to refine a reopening plan corresponding with the State's "Safe Start" phased approach to
reopening the state. It should be noted that only in Phase 3 do they recommend re -opening customer -facing
government services, and even at that time telework is still strongly encouraged for non -customer facing
positions.
Financial Stabil
At the May 18 City Council meeting the Council approved various measures for the mayor to implement to
address the revenue shortfalls associated with the coronavirus pandemic. The Council continues to receive
regular updates on the implementation of the financial measures associated with the coronavirus pandemic, the
most recent of which was at the July 13, 2020 Committee of the Whole.
Police Staff ine and Calls for Service
There have been no changes to Police staffing since the last report.
Fire Staffing and Calls for Service
There have been no changes to Fire staffing since the last report.
Human Services
Human Services continue to serve Tukwila residents at a higher than normal rate. Human Services continues to
serve Tukwila residents at a higher than pre-COVID rate. Staff has committed $16,064.78 in rent and utility
assistance so far this month. This represents 16 unduplicated households, 41 individuals. All households have
been impacted by wage loss; several have been waiting since March/April for unemployment to begin.

Business Re -Openings
As of July 22, King County continues in Phase 2 of Washington's "Safe Start" four phase business reopening plan.
On July 141" the Governor announced he is extending the Statewide pause on counties moving to new phases
through July 28t" at the earliest due to the increase in COVID-19 cases. The Governor's office has indicated that
the soonest that King County could move to Phase 3 is August 11. However, we think it is highly unlikely that
King County will move into Phase 3 that soon due to the increasing spread of the virus.
On July 16, the Governor explained that COVID cases continue to increase in the State recently hitting both the
highest single day rate of new cases and highest weekly rolling average since the pandemic began. Based on
these numbers, he said that we are "on an unsustainable path in the spread of the virus" and announced new
Safe Start phase limits, effective July 20. The number of individuals allowed in social gatherings during Phase 3
will be reduced from 50 people to 10 people. Additionally, the governor and secretary announced a prohibition

in restaurants. The governor noted that if Washingtonians continue failing to adhere to mask -wearing and social

INFORMATIONAL MEMORANDUM
TO: Finance Committee
FROM: Vicky Carlsen, Finance Director
BY: Jeff Friend, Fiscal Manager
CC: Mayor Ekberg
DATE: July 27, 2020
SUBJECT: General Fund Budget-to-Actuals and COVID-19 Impact Report
Summary
Resolution 1987 directed financial reporting on COVID-19 impacts twice a month. The City
received April sales tax data allowing for general fund revenues to be updated through the end of
April. This report reflects the following:
- General fund:
o Revenues as of April 30, 2020
o Expenditures as of May 31, 2020
- Capital projects funds:
o Revenues as of June 30, 2020
o Expenditures as of June 30, 2020
The revised budget (COVID-19) noted throughout the report is for financial analysis purposes
only. Any actual adjustments to the budget will require formal action from Council in the 4th quarter
of 2020.
The purpose of the general fund budgets to actuals report is to summarize for the City Council
the general state of revenues and expenditures and to highlight significant items. The following
provides a high-level summary of the general fund financial performance and includes select
capital project funds.
The General Fund Report is based on financial data available as of July 16, 2020, for the period
ending April 30, 2020 for revenues and May 31, 2020 for expenditures. The allocated budget is
calculated to reflect monthly revenue patterns based on prior year activity with adjustments
specific to COVID-19. Additional details can be found within the attached financial report.
To summarize the general fund information below, revenues exceed the revised allocated budget
by $870.7 thousand and expenditures are below allocated budget by $476.7 thousand.
Capital Projects funds have been updated from the previous report and now include data
through the end of June. No updates were available for the general fund.
Revenues
The chart on page 3, reflects general fund revenue on a monthly basis. The green bar reflects
the adopted budget as amended on December 2, 2019, the blue bar indicates the revised budget
reflecting projected reductions due to COVID-19, and the orange bar indicates actuals each
month. In this report, revenues are reflected through April 30th and expenditures through May 31 It.

INFORMATIONAL MEMO
Page 2
May revenue will be updated after May sales tax revenue is received at the end of July and
will be included in first financial report in August.
Total General Fund revenue through April 30t" was $19.1 million and is above the revised
allocated budget by $870.8 thousand. The higher than expected actuals in January is mainly due
to business license renewal activity. Business license revenue was higher than projected in
January and February due to a timing difference resulting in transitioning to the State. Business
license revenue that was anticipated in December 2019 was received in the first two months of
this year. March is the first month that the City experienced revenue loss due to the pandemic.
Sales tax revenue for the month of April, reflects the first full month of brick & mortar store
closures. In addition to an overall YTD decline in Gambling & Excise Tax of 29.4%, sales tax from
the City's largest sales tax generating location, (the mall and surrounding businesses) reported a
sharp decline in revenue, which was expected. Sales tax revenue from the area shopping district
was down $457,953, compared to April 2019. This represents a 55% decline in revenues within
this retail location. While revenues exceeded the revised budget expectations for the month of
April, there has been a decline in overall sales tax revenues of approximately $581,719, or 37%,
compared to April 2019. Sales tax from construction remained strong in April, which helped offset
the reduction in the retail sector.
The graph below depicts sales tax revenues for the period of Jan — Apr, comparing prior year
(2019) to current year (2020). The year started off promising, with January beating the same
period last year by $101,972, or 7.4%. However, February sales tax revenue began to trend lower
compared to the prior year. February reported a $173,367, reduction (13.1 %) in sales tax revenue.
March came in at $375,179 (22.1%) below the same period in 2019. As reported above, April
ended the month $581,719 (37.1 %) below April 2019.

The chart below reflects both adopted budget, as amended on December 2, 2019 along with the
allocated budget as well as a revised budget that captures the reductions from phase I (reduce
overtime, travel and training, capital transfers, and extra labor), phase II (departmental budget
scrubs), and phase III (labor reductions). It does not currently reflect any use of contingency
funds as that will require Council action at a later date.
Lootings
Twenty-six businesses were broken into at the end of May and beginning of June. The mass
lootings required a strong police presence that resulted in overtime costs. Fire staff were also on
standby while Public Works incurred some costs related to closing streets.

COVID Expenditures
General Fund expenditures related to the COVID-19 pandemic began to be incurred in March.
These expenditures totaled $390,102 through May 31 st and are reported by department in the
schedule below. COVID related expenditures in salaries and benefits include time dedicated to
the emergency operations center (EOC) as well as time spent analyzing the financial impacts of
the pandemic. Overtime and supplies are for time outside of normal operations spent in the EOC
as well as time responding directly to COVID-19 related activities. Supplies are for additional
PPE and disinfectant supplies.
Unbudgeted costs can be applied against CARES Act funding or FEMA funding and will not affect
ending fund balance. Budgeted salaries and benefits for time that has been redirected to
responding to the pandemic could qualify for reimbursement from CARES Act funding. Any
reimbursement for budgeted salaries and benefits would reduce the need for contingency funds
because the City had not received confirmation that CARES Act funding would be available.
Reimbursement of these costs were not included in the proposal to close the $12 million revenue
gap.

COVID-19 Related Grants Available to the City
There are several grant opportunities now available to the City to offset some of the costs incurred
related to the pandemic. Below is a chart listing grant opportunities as well as what the funds
may be used for. It should be noted that all of the grants are reimbursement and cannot be used
to offset loss of revenue.
The chart will be updated as new information becomes available. Staff will return in the near
future with a plan to maximize the use of all known, available funding.

Selected Capital Projects Funds
Financial analysis regarding the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic include ongoing review of
certain capital projects funds including: residential streets (fund 103), arterial streets (fund 104),
and general government improvements (fund 303). The narrative below highlights planned capital
projects along with decisions that have already been made and decision points for future
meetings. The narrative is followed by financial statements reflecting activity through April 30,
2020 as well as projected activity through the end of the year.
Residential Streets
The most impactful issue in this fund relates to the 42nd Ave S and 53rd Ave S roadway projects.
Both projects are completed and are awaiting final closeout and payments to contractors. The
project budgets reflected in the financial statements are estimates at this time. Staff is working to
determine full final costs and will update budgets when revised information is received. Until the
City has updated information on these two projects, the fund will continue to show a negative fund
balance. It should also be noted that the negative fund balance is only an estimate and will only
end the year in a negative position if all identified expenditures are paid this year. The fund
currently has a aositive cash balance and a aositive fund balance.
Arterial Streets
42nd Ave S Bridge: The City Council authorized funding of up to $1 million ($320 thousand
general fund, $680 thousand solid waste utility tax) for 30% design. There is a possibility that a
federal infrastructure bill could include funding for "shovel ready" projects. In order for this project
to have the best chance of receiving funding, the project would need to be at least 30% designed.
The City expects to select a design consultant later this summer to get to 30% design. Since
funding for the highest priority areas for overlay have been identified, staff is recommending that
a decision on whether to fund this project or redirect funds elsewhere, be delayed until the true
cost of design is understood.
S 119th St Ped Bridge painting: Not funding this project will only delay the project, not cancel it.
There is a limited window of opportunity to paint the bridge due to weather and fish cycles.
Removing funding for this project will delay the project until at least 2021.
Overlay. At the June 8, 2020 Committee of the Whole meeting, there was Council consensus to
move forward with the recommendation from the Transportation & Infrastructure Committee to
fund the two highest priority overlay projects. The budget has been adjusted to reflect the
increase in budget.
General Government Improvement
Siding repair at TCC: Siding repair for TCC has been listed as a project as early as 2018. When
the 2019-2020 budget was drafted, the expectation was that $200 thousand in siding and roofing
repairs at TCC would occur. Last year, the city received bids for Phase I I I of the project; the lowest
proposal being $116,589. At the July 13th Council of the Whole meeting, consensus existed to
forward this item to the consent agenda at the following Regular meeting. Budget for this project
is $120 thousand and funding currently exists in the general government improvement fund.
Facilities Study. This project is also funded out of the general government improvement. Staff is
reworking the scope of this project per comments received from City Council at the June 8, 2020
Committee of the Whole meeting.

CC: Mayor Ekberg
DATE: July 7, 2020
SUBJECT: Resolution Regarding Unbanked Money Transfers Operations
ISSUE
The City has been asked by a community member to adopt a resolution expressing support for
unbanked money transfer operations and asking the Washington State Legislature to pass a
financial inclusion law.
BACKGROUND
Federal and State law provides restrictions and verification requirements for accounts placed at
financial institutions in order to be compliant with international and national anti -money
laundering/combating the financing of terrorism (AML/CFT) laws. Financial institutions must
verify certain information regarding the account holder and source of funds placed in the
account and trace where the funds go. Significant documentation is also required for
international money transfers.
Financial institutions often practice "de -risking" which refers to the closing of accounts of clients
considered high risk for compliance under AML/CFT requirements. This de -risking often impacts
non -bank money service businesses, foreign embassies, nonprofit organizations, and
correspondent banks, which has resulted in account closures in the United States, United
Kingdom, and Australia'.
DISCUSSION
A 2015 report from the Global Center on Cooperative Security entitled, Understanding Bank De -
Risking and Its Effects on Financial Inclusion points out that de -risking can isolate communities
from the financial system and in fact undermine the goals of AML/CFT objectives. When
individuals lack access to bank accounts at established financial institutions it can result in
financial transactions occurring outside of the normal financial system. This often involves
"cash" transactions, including storing cash on premises or using couriers to transfer cash in and
out of the United States.
Bank de -risking impacts local immigrant communities by making it difficult for immigrant owned
businesses to open bank accounts and send money to family members living outside of the
United States. Not having a bank account can also make it difficult to obtain certain funds under
Federal and State programs.
The draft resolution expresses the City's desire to see changes made in State law regarding
bank de -risking. Note, the Federal Government has significant overnight in the United States
financial system, including oversight of foreign money transfers. This resolution only addresses
banks chartered by the State of Washington.

DRAFT
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
TUKWILA, WASHINGTON, AFFIRMING SUPPORT OF
UNBANKED MONEY TRANSFER OPERATORS (MTOs)
AND THE IMMIGRANT COMMUNITIES THEY SERVE AND
URGING THE WASHINGTON STATE LEGISLATURE TO
PASS A FINANCIAL INCLUSION LAW.
WHEREAS, unbanked Money Transfer Operators (MTOs) in Tukwila, King County,
and across the United States of America have been unable to secure bank accounts due
to a process referred to as "bank de -risking"; and
WHEREAS, over the past few years, these MTOs have found it increasingly difficult
to operate without a bank account; and
WHEREAS, due to being unbanked, MTOs have been unable to access COVID-19-
related small business federally -funded assistance opportunities such as the Paycheck
Protection Program; and
WHEREAS, unbanked MTOs are mostly owned by black and immigrant residents;
and
WHEREAS, a financial inclusion law will help address the racial inequalities in
accessing economic opportunities; and
WHEREAS, a recent string of armed robberies on these unbanked MTOs, which store
large amounts of cash in their premises, in SeaTac, Seattle and surrounding cities has
turned this issue into a public safety concern; and
WHEREAS, East African immigrant communities in Tukwila rely on these MTOs to
send money to their loved ones abroad for basic needs including food, water, shelter and
education; and
WHEREAS, these MTOs provide culturally specific services; deliver money to remote
regions not served by the large operators, including refugee camps in East Africa; provide
good paying jobs; contribute to community activities; and are valuable members of
Tukwila's small business community; and

WHEREAS, Tukwila and King County have one of the largest East African
communities in the United States —nearly 30,000 Ethiopians, Eritreans, and Somalis are
residents in King County; and
WHEREAS, the vast majority of our East African residents are refugees and our new
residents need effective systems that will support them in staying connected to their loved
ones back home; and
WHEREAS, East Africans are critical to Tukwila's economic vitality because they
purchase goods and services and run small businesses, which in turn create jobs and
generate revenue for the region; and
WHEREAS, the Washington State Legislature and the State of Washington have
jurisdiction over State -licensed banks; and
WHEREAS, the Washington State Legislature and the State of Washington have the
authority to pass laws and develop processes that promote financial inclusion and public
safety; and
WHEREAS, it is in the City of Tukwila's interest to promote financial inclusion and
public safety;
NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF TUKWILA,
WASHINGTON, HEREBY RESOLVES AS FOLLOWS:
Section 1. The City of Tukwila affirms its support of our East African community in their
desire to support their loved ones in the Horn of Africa. The City of Tukwila also affirms the
right of Money Transfer Operators to engage in lawful commerce in a safe manner.
Section 2. The City of Tukwila strongly urges the Washington State Legislature to pass
a financial inclusion law that will address the public safety and equal access issues caused
by bank de -risking.
PASSED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF TUKWILA, WASHINGTON, at
a Regular Meeting thereof this day of , 2020.
