The Administration is currently surveying staff to understand the impacts of public schools being closed this fall on the organization. Staff leadership is seeking to understand how we can accommodate employees impacted by children engaged in distance learning this fall. Financial Stability 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 is at the August 10, 2020 Committee of the Whole. Police Staffing and Calls for Service There have been no changes to Police staffing since the last report. Below are the calls for service for the month of July, with the 2019 calls as reference: 2020 2,511 2019 2,985 Fire Staff ine and Calls for Service There have been no changes to Fire staffing since the last report. Please see attached detailed report on the calls for service for the month of July, 2020. Human Services Human Services assisted six households containing 19 individuals this week with rental assistance with a combination of HB 1406 and City general fund dollars, totaling $6,550. One of the six households had significant utility debt was also assisted. Last week, City representatives from the King County Joint Recommendations Committee (JRC) approved round two of the CARES Act (ESG) — CV funds that allocates $11,139,409 for operational, one-time structural adjustments to shelters so they are in compliance with public health and CDC social distancing/isolation guidelines, and funds to support Rapid Rehousing, a proven model that provides financial assistance to residents moving out of shelter and into stable housing. This week the Washington State Department of Commerce announced it is dedicating $100 million in state CARES Act funding for rental assistance programs. These funds will be distributed to various community -based 3 organizations for distribution around the state; recipients can get up to three months in rent and the program is expected to last through the end of the year. Business Recovery Business Re -Openings As of August 5, King County continues in Phase 2 of Washington's "Safe Start" four phase business reopening plan. On July 28th the Governor extended the pause indefinitely on counties moving into new phases of Safe Start. He also announced additional guidance, most of which was covered in last week's coronavirus update. In addition, in Phase 3, table size is reduced to 5 people and occupancy is reduced to 50%. Business Assistance Work continues on SavingLocalKC.com, ExperienceTukwila, and collaborating with the Chamber and other regional organizations. On 8/3/20 the Planning and Economic Development Committee gave approval to staff to accept the $31,965 grant from King County and use it for micro grants to very small businesses, generally in the Tukwila International Boulevard area. Staff will be implementing that program over the next eight weeks. Staff sent an email to all Tukwila businesses with updates on resources. Economy Community Attributes recently released an economic impact analysis for the Seattle region. Below are a few of the key takeaways. As of June 2020, the unemployment rate in the region is currently 9.3% for the Seattle MSA, down from 14.5% in May. During the depths of the Global Financial Crisis in 2008, the Seattle MSA's unemployment rate peaked just shy of 10%. These numbers paint a clearer picture of the magnitude of the economic shock our region is experiencing, and the importance of working together on relief and recovery. The virus has disproportionately impacted people of color, workers with less education, and low-income workers. In the Seattle Metro area, more than 41% of individuals filing for unemployment between March 1 and July 11 were a person of color or Hispanic. Additionally, approximately 32% of new filers had no more than a high school diploma, compared with 26% of the regional adult population overall with a high school diploma or less. Low income workers have been more severely impacted by COVID-19. According to the Federal Reserve, 39% of people working in February with a household income below $40,000 reported a job loss in March. Meeting our Community's Basic Needs Senior Meal Distribution 58 households made up of 65 seniors and 418 meals delivered this week. The senior meal program will be funded through the end of the year through the Mayor's office. Tukwila Food Pantry The Tukwila Food Pantry remains busy with approximately 350 — 550 households served on each distribution day of Saturday, Tuesday and Thursday. 11 Parks and Recreation Youth Summer Meals Program. The Mobile Recreation program passed out 802 lunches and 779 breakfasts. They had 509 attendees and distributed 560 recreation kits and 1,219 masks. Other community partners are distributing masks delivered to them by the City, such as the Tukwila Pantry, Food Innovation Network, the Tukwila School District and Impact Public Schools. Public Safety Plan Construction Protects There have been no changes to the Public Safety Plan projects since the last report. Compliance with the Governor's Order There have been no changes to compliance issues since the last report. 5 9 Tukwila Fire Department Volume Study July '20 Edition Fire Stn 54 Firje Stn 51 Ploasa note: AIL trausfmitn rt surlaca wamr, san=ry savwra dwrdrdlsMbLrbonraclllhasaam Im nanumus to show an ihls -Lunanary map.

Total TFD Case Volume in July `20 represented a decrease of 20% compared to July '19 (Jan, Feb, March, April, May, June averaged a 17% decrease). In other words, July '20 had 105 fewer cases than July ' 19. 2. EMS continued carrying the case volume metrics lower, with 83 fewer in July '20 than July '19. There were 12 fewer Fire cases and 8 fewer Service calls over these same ranges. 3. Year to date through July 31 St, total case volume for the Tukwila Fire Department has fallen 17% compared to the same time frame in 2019. This equates to 616 fewer cases. 4. Be cautious when comparing station -specific trends due to Stn 54's Aid Car operating out of Stn 52 when staffing is low. pg. 2 Additional notes: 1. Feb 2020 is a leap month with 3.57% more days than the previous three Febs. 2. Because of their infrequent occurrence, Fire and Service response calls are more subject to wilder "% Changes" than EMS responses. YTD, we've averaged just a few of these types of calls (combined) each day. An increase or decrease of just one of these types of calls per day would result in a change of about a third. This helps to explain some of the volatility in the graphs and charts. 3. Station -related metrics are based on "Primary Station": while more than one station may respond to a single call, only the station deemed as primary by ValleyCom gets the credit. In some cases, an OSA (Outside Agency/Mutual Aid) unit will be designated as primary on a call within Tukwila. Those calls are included within "All TFD" metrics but not within individual Station metrics. pg. 3 Total Monthly Case Volume 180 160 140 120 100 80 60 40 20 0 2019 2020 2019 2020 2019 2020 51 52 53 ■January 121 106 76 80 72 76 ■ February 110 122 76 75 80 62 ■ Mardi 116 94 90 90 79 73 ■ April 107 57 80 52 76 52 ■ May 126 67 81 53 85 65 ■June 120 93 93 60 81 44 ■ July 135 103 89 28 83 64 EMS Monthly Case Volume 160 140 120 100 80 — — 60 40 20 2019 2020 2019 2020 2019 2020 51 52 53 ■ January 92 82 59 61 52 49 ■ February 73 92 52 58 54 50 ■ March 81 71 69 68 56 61 ■April 76 38 66 43 59 42 ■ May 92 47 64 26 68 47 ■June 76 53 71 42 52 33 0 July 88 64 68 18 55 1 42 pg. 4 2019 158 154 150 149 153 139 147 2019 131 136 137 128 133 108 123 54 54 2020 140 132 133 109 115 120 143 2020 122 120 119 88 101 99 115 45 40 35 30 25 20 15 10 5 0 2019 ■ January 21 ■ February 24 ■ Mardi 33 ■ April 20 ■ May 27 ■June 31 ■ July 40 16 — 14 12 10 8 6 4 2 0 2019 ■ January 8 ■ February 12 ■ March 2 ■April 11 ■ May 6 ■ June 13 ■ July 7 w 2020 51 20 23 19 16 13 31 33 2020 51 4 7 4 Fire Monthly Case Volume 2019 14 18 19 9 16 20 15 2020 2019 52 53 13 12 14 11 19 16 8 10 19 17 15 23 8 22 2020 22 10 9 9 13 10 19 Service Monthly Case Volume 2019 20 9 8 14 17 30 23 IN 2020 54 13 10 13 15 10 16 20 iJLIJLLI 2019 2020 2019 2020 2019 2020 52 53 54 3 6 8 5 7 5 6 3 15 2 9 2 2 3 7 3 5 1 5 1 7 1 7 6 1 8 5 3 4 2 3 5 1 1 5 6 2 I 6 2 1 8 pg. 5 Total Monthly Case Volume 600 500 400 300 200 100 0 2016 2017 2018 2019 2020 EMS Monthly Case Volume 450 400 350 300 250 200 150 100 50 0 2016 2017 2018 2019 2020 pg. 6 Fire Monthly Case Volume 160 140 120 100 80 60 cq 20 0 2016 2017 2018 2019 2020 Service Monthly Case Volume 6q 50 40 30 I 20 10 0 2016 2017 2018 2019 2020 pg. 7 Total Cases EMS Cases Fire Cases Service Cases Year Month Name #
