Recvclables and Comoostables Collection Contract ISSUE Approval of the 2012 -2019 Comprehensive Solid Waste, Recyclables and Compostables Collection Contract with Waste Management, Inc. BACKGROUND The current Comprehensive Solid Waste, Recyclables, and Yard Waste Collection Contract with Allied Waste /Republic Services, Inc. expires on October 31, 2012. At Council's direction, Staff pursued an open, competitive procurement process. A request for proposals (RFP) was released on August 15, 2011. Proposals were received from three proponents (Allied Waste /Republic Services, Inc., CleanScapes Inc., and Waste Management Inc.) on October 17, 2011. Proposals from all three proponents were reviewed and evaluated by the City's Evaluation Team consisting of staff representatives from the Public Works Department and the Department of Community Development. Additionally, site visits, reference checks and interviews were conducted during October and November as part of the evaluation process. At the conclusion of the evaluation process, proponents were rated and scored. Waste Management, Inc. was selected by the Evaluation Team as the highest -rated proponent. The City proceeded to conduct negotiations with Waste Management through December 2011 resulting in the attached contract (Attachment 1). DISCUSSION Proposals were reviewed for responsiveness and minimum general qualifications. They were evaluated and scored using the criteria outlined in the RFP. The three primary evaluation categories include: 1) Price; 2) Customer Service Approach, and References; and 3) System Design, Operations and Sustainability. Results of the proposal scores are as follows: Customer Service Approach System Design, Operations References and Sustainability Price Total Score Proponent (25 Points) (15 Points) (60 Points) (100 Points) Allied 17.75 10.5 60 88.25 Waste /Republic CleanScapes 21.75 12.25 55 89 Waste Management 24.5 14.25 60 98.75 W AMENGTrojects&I i d WastO nfoMenno -Sol id Waste& Recycl in g ServicesCo ntract -UC 1 -16 -12 INFORMATIONAL MEMO Page 2 Allied Waste /Republic Services, Inc. submitted the lowest cost proposal followed by Waste Management. When applying the scoring criteria /formula contained in the RFP, both companies received 60 points (Waste Management's score was rounded from 59.999 to 60 points). The difference between Allied and Waste Management's total base proposal cost is $87. Considering price and the other qualitative factors (customer service approach, and system design, operations and sustainability), Waste Management scored the highest overall and was selected by the City Evaluation Team as the finalist proponent. The new negotiated collection contract provides for a seven year term with two 2 -year extensions at the City's option. It features enhanced services for residential, multi family, and commercial customers, additional resources for the City and lower rates for almost all customers. Enhancements include: Universal Carts: New garbage, recycling and compost carts for all customers, with the elimination of old -style garbage cans. Universal adoption of wheeled carts reduced the rates to all customers due to increased operating efficiencies. Expanded Recyclables: An expanded range of recyclables including additional plastics, compact fluorescent lamps, motor oil, FOG (fats, oils, greases), electronics and scrap metal. Paperless Billing Incentive: A $6 /year incentive for residential customers that subscribe to paperless billing ($10 /year for commercial customers). Compostables (Yard Debris) Collection: The compostables (yard debris) collection has been changed slightly to reduce the base level of service from 192 gallons of capacity to one 96- gallon cart included in the base rate to reduce the costs of the service and to increase the attractiveness of the service to new subscribers. Residents will be able to put out excess yard debris at a $1.50 per 32- gallon extra rate. This eliminates the cross subsidy that high -use customers have previously received from regular customers. Reduced Carbon Emissions /Sustainability: Waste Management will deploy a fleet of new, quieter compressed natural gas (CNG) collection vehicles outfitted with on -board computing technology. Commercial Recycling: Recycling services will be available at no additional charge to all commercial customers. (See below). Litter Containers: The Contractor will provide and install 21 litter containers along Tukwila International Blvd as part of contract start -up. Residential Carts Ownership: The City will have the assignable option of owning all residential carts at the end of the contract term. This will reduce rates further in the successor contract. Administrative Fee: The Contractor will pay the City a 2% administrative fee to fund City -wide litter collection and other solid waste management related functions. Robust Community Engagement, Education and Public Outreach Program: See Attachment 2. The new contract incorporates three RFP alternatives: universal carts (described in the first bullet above), mandatory collection and embedded commercial recycling, all of which reduce overall ratepayer costs. Mandatory Collection During past discussions regarding mandatory garbage collection (also referred to as universal collection), the cost impact of implementing such a program was raised but accurate information was difficult to ascertain. Through this competitive process, staff pursued the opportunity to obtain this critical information and requested proponents to identify the increased costs or savings resulting from mandatory collection. Increased costs or savings have varied considerably in other cities, so the results of implementing mandatory collection were unknown before the RFP process. In Tukwila, all three proponents indicated ratepayer savings by shifting to mandatory collection. The residential rates in the attached contract reflect Waste Management's proposed $7.68 /year /household reduction in rates for implementing mandatory collection. The contract includes provisions for Waste Management to work with the City to roll -out mandatory collection and assume primary responsibility for informing customers of the requirement, flagging non compliance, providing a City- approved letter to non complying customers, and collecting bad debt. If 2 2 INFORMATIONAL MEMO Page 3 the Council were to reject mandatory collection, the rates in the attached contract would need to be increased by $0.64 per month ($7.68 /year). Commercial Recvclinq The Contract rates include the provision of recycling to all commercial customers. Currently, a number of businesses either pay for or receive recycling of selected commodities at no cost. Larger customers can typically obtain free collection for certain materials under current commodity market prices. Smaller customers or customers recycling less valuable materials typically pay for collection. Often, the costs of paying for separate garbage and recycling collection exceed the costs of paying for a larger garbage container. That has proved to be a barrier to expanded recycling, as many customers are unwilling (or unable in the case of chain stores with procurement policies) to invest in paying for an additional recycling, even if they will have potential savings in their garbage costs. Many cities have included recycling in the service package for all customers, including the commercial sector. Examples of those cities include Auburn, Federal Way, Des Moines, Renton, Maple Valley, Bellevue, Issaquah, Kirkland, Redmond and Shoreline. In Tukwila, the competitive process has resulted in the City being able to offer a combined garbage +recycling package to most commercial customers for less than they are currently paying for garbage alone. For example, a 2 -yard "Dumpster" customer currently pays $112.13/mo for weekly garbage service. Under the new contract, that customer would pay $100.90 for combined garbage and recycling service. If they chose to use the recycling service and instead use 1 -yard garbage service with a 1 -yard recycling container, they would pay only $59.24. For most customers the new contract will provide a significant opportunity to reduce rates. Some customers with larger containers will have higher rates under the new contract, but they will still have access to recycling services that they can use to reduce their bills. Customers will not be required to use City- contract recycling services. They may continue to use their current provider (and may well do this if they currently are large enough to have free service for certain recyclables) or use specialty services for shredding, inside recycling collection, pallet recycling and other services outside the scope of the new commercial recycling program. Rate Impacts Except for drop box customers, the new contract offers significant rate savings over the City's current contract, even with the City's 2% administrative fee included. Examples are shown below: Only customers at the highest level of capacity (i.e., drop boxes) will see an increase, as shown on the last line of the above table. Those customers will also be charged a 10% surcharge on their disposal bill under Current 2012 New 2012 Service Level Rate Rate Additional Services 32/35 Gallon Cart $13.96 w/o $10.28 w/o compost, compost, $23.37 with $17.90 with 60/64 Gallon Cart $20.08 w/o $16.28 w/o New carts, expanded recycling, compost, compost, paperless discount in addition to base $29.49 with $23.90 with rate decrease if used. 90/96 Gallon Cart $28.67 w/o $22.28 w/o compost, compost, $38.08 with $29.90 with 1 yard "Dumpster" I $66.21 I $59.24 1 New garbage containers, recycling 3 yard "Dumpster" $159.66 1 $143.95 included in rates, paperless discount 8 yard "Dumpster" $381.27 $345.40 1 if used. 30 yard Drop -box $107.01 $139.80 Note: current 2012 rates are based on cart services, not customers who use their own containers. This was done to keep the basis of comparison constant. Only customers at the highest level of capacity (i.e., drop boxes) will see an increase, as shown on the last line of the above table. Those customers will also be charged a 10% surcharge on their disposal bill under INFORMATIONAL MEMO Page 4 the new contract to reduce the existing subsidy inherent in passing through County disposal charges with no mark -up. However, note that for those customers, the drop -box haul rate is the smaller portion of their bill. County disposal charges would typically be $400 -800 on a drop box, so a $33 increase in haul rate on a $500 -1000 bill is a negligible increase, particularly since that customer would also be eligible for recycling services at no additional charge. In summary, through the competitive process, the City will have a new contract that will serve the residents and businesses well for at least seven years. The new contract will further enhance the excellent solid waste programs currently in place. For almost all services, Tukwila customers will see an overall reduction in their rates and will benefit from a professional contractor with a strong management team that is focused on sustainability and customer service excellence. Additionally, the new contract will provide the mechanism for Tukwila to enhance its recycling program, increase diversion of materials from the landfill, and meet requirements of the regional Comprehensive Solid Waste and Recycling Plan.

Customer charges listed in Attachment B will be adjusted separately, as appropriate. The collection component of Customer charges will be adjusted annually, pursuant to this Section and as described below. The disposal component of the Customer charges listed in Attachment B will be adjusted only if the City receives notification from the County of a pending disposal fee adjustment, and will not become effective until the new disposal charges become effective and are actually charged to the Contractor. Formulas for both collection and disposal rate adjustments are provided as follows: Collection Component Adjustment The collection component listed in Attachment B will be increased or decreased by the amount of the CPI change: NCC PCC x 1 nCPI oCPI x 0.8 oCPI Where NCC The new collection charge component of the customer rate for a particular service level; and PCC The previous collection charge component of the Customer rate for a particular service level; and nCPI The most recent June CPI value; and oCPI The CPI value used for the previous rate adjustment or, in the case of the first contract adjustment, the CPI value reported at the end of June 2011. Disposal Component Adjustment In the case of a disposal fee modification at County disposal facilities, the disposal component of each service level will be adjusted as follows: Step 1: A ODC x NTF OTF Step 2: NDC= A +[(A— ODC)xCETR] Where NDC The new disposal charge component of the customer rate for a particular service level; and City of Tukwila Attachments January, 2012 92 NTF The new disposal fee, dollars per ton; and ODC The old disposal charge component of the customer rate for a particular service level; OTF The old disposal fee, dollars per ton; and A Pre excise tax adjusted disposal component; and CETR Current excise tax rate (the current State excise tax rate; 0.018 used for this example). For example, using an initial one 32/35- gallon cart rate of $10.28 per month: if the previous CPI is 143.2, the new CPI is 144.3 and the disposal fee will increase from $109 to $115 per ton starting on January 1, 2014, the old disposal component is $5.35, and the State Excise Tax rate is 0.018, the January 2014 Customer charge for one 32/35- gallon cart per week Residential Curbside service would be: (144.3- 143.2) New Collection Component $5.35 x [1+ x 0.8 $5.38 (143.2) New Disposal Component [$4.93 x (115/109)] plus excise tax adjustment of $0.01 $5.21 Thus, the new Customer charge for one 32/35- gallon cart per week Residential Curbside service will be $5.38 plus $5.21, equaling $10.59.

BACKGROUND In 2003, the City of Kirkland entered into an interlocal agreement with the University of Washington, the Lake Washington School District, and the City of Bellevue to jointly construct and manage fiber optic projects for economies of scale and mutual benefit as the Regional Fiber Consortium. Other interested governmental agencies have joined the consortium since then, including the City of Tukwila, authorized by Council with Resolution No. 1708 in April of 2010. Based on discussions between legal counsels of various members, the form of the organization has been changed to a Public Corporation as opposed to an entity created by an Interlocal Agreement. This change is desirable because it provides Tukwila and other member jurisdictions with better protection from legal liability for the actions of the consortium. The current membership (including entities that have already signed the previous ILA and entities that would like to sign the proposed ILA) has grown to include Bellevue College, Bellevue School District, City of Algona, City of Auburn, City of Bellevue, City of Federal Way, City of Kent, City of Kirkland, City of Pacific, City of Puyallup, City of Renton, City of Seattle, City of Tukwila, Evergreen Medical Center, Lake Washington School District, Renton School District, University of Washington, and Valley Communications Center. The CCC's website is www.communitvconnectivitv.ora. The site is new and content will continue to be added, along with the names of member agencies as their individual interlocal agreement approval process becomes finalized. A CCC Fast Facts info sheet is attached to this memo for general informational purposes. DISCUSSION The new interlocal agreement achieves the following: Establishes a nine member. Governance Board. Provides for joint ownership of future fiber resources. Provides a framework for managing decision making and funds. Names the consortium the "Community Connectivity Consortium." 97 INFORMATIONAL MEMO Page 2 Simplifies future changes by defining the Board's responsibilities to include creation and management of administrative policies. Allows for the Executive Board to develop financial policies and practices along with a five -year strategic plan to be delivered to the membership for 2013/14. This re- formation process did not allow time for formal requests for budget to go into member's 2012 budgets. The CCC will operate on a project contribution basis in 2012 the same basis the consortium has been operating under for the past 10 years. However, because there may be overhead costs (such as legal and consultant time) for the Public Corporation or fiber project maintenance /repair costs, each member agency was asked to earmark $5,000 in their individual budgets as contingency funding. The City of Tukwila has interest in participating in the consortium for a number of reasons: to efficiently achieve redundant fiber paths to City facilities both north and south of 1 -405; install an active fiber connection to the City's records center at Sabey; and facilitate connectivity to other Valley City campuses and agencies of interest such as Valley Communications and SCORE Jail for public safety needs. With additional fiber installed in conduit along the entire Interurban corridor, the City would be able to add CCTV cameras to the Interurban signals and have access to the controllers in the field from the City's traffic operations center. The CCC members have high interest in connecting to Sabey as well, and plan on using current grant funds to connect the consortium's fiber ring to the Sabey facilities. Because the planned path travels through the City of Tukwila, it is in the best interest of the City to be a participating member and have our staff at the discussion table as soon as possible. Outside commercial vendors such as Integra Telecom and Rapid Ride are also interested in partnering with the CCC and the City of Tukwila using existing conduit. To achieve the City of Tukwila's goals for connectivity, the cost could be very minimal, or even largely reliant upon in -kind contributions with such cooperative partnerships. Project details are under discussion and will be brought to Council as separate initiatives. RECOMMENDATION The Council is being asked to consider this item and approve the resolution at the February 13, 2012 Committee of the Whole meeting and subsequent February 21, 2012 Regular Meeting.

During the one -year non voting period, the applicant should attend Board and /or committee meetings for one year to demonstrate sincere interest and willingness to actively participate and engage in the collaborative partnership. Final admittance as a full voting member is established by a majority vote of the full voting membership based upon demonstrated ability to develop and maintain effective partnerships in alignment with Consortium goals and objectives.

Our current focus is to extend into south King County and 'expand in the Valley', with the addition of Auburn and other cities. We have built over 35 miles of fiber optic cable, creating strategic connection points along the way. Our partners use the fiber network to: Connect schools and universities to enhance learning. Connect hospitals, medical facilities and clinics to improve healthcare. Connect government facilities for public safety, transportation and other needs. Provide an open access network to serve the public with wireless and broadband access. Future Now that there are major connection points in Kirkland, Bellevue and soon Renton, we intend over the next five years to: Create a vibrant and competitive region by providing connectivity to meet the needs of our community institutions hospitals, schools, city halls, public safety agencies. Expand the use of our fiber network to support new applications and needs. Build resiliency in our network and for our partners by adding redundancy and connecting with other regional networks.

BACKGROUND Detailed, accurate and up to date aerial photos and related GIS data are city -wide resources which aid City staff, Council Members, Planning Commissioners and the public in analyzing existing conditions and proposed changes such as re- zones, private development proposals and infrastructure projects. They are used daily in mapping, design work, the NW Maps application, and public presentations. As the City continues to develop, there is a need for updated information especially with the recent Tukwila South annexation and projects like the Southcenter Pkwy Extension and TUC Access (Klickitat). In past years, the City has independently purchased aerial photography and GIS data. In 2000, the City originally purchased aerial photos and other GIS data (building footprints, edge of pavement, sidewalks, driveways, etc) for a total of approximately $80,000.00 and, in 2005, we had new photos taken, as well as had our GIS data updated for $34,000.00. In 2009, photos were purchased through King County (without GIS data updates) for approximately $3,000.00. For 2012 it has been decided to obtain higher quality photos (0.25 ft pixel resolution) as well as update our building footprints, pavement, and digital elevation models through the E- CityGov Alliance (a consortium of cities for web -based applications). Early in discussions, the E- CityGov Alliance learned that King County was also interested in a 2012 flight for aerial photos. In the interest of efficiency and a substantial cost savings, the E- CityGov Alliance made the decision to partner with King County. Other jurisdictions in the Puget Sound region were contacted and there are now over 45 agencies that are participating in the 2012 aerial flight. The specifications for the flight and GIS data were approved by all agencies. Council approval is required for all Interlocal agreements. ANALYSIS King County opened 5 bids on January 5, 2012 ranging from $841,554.10 to $1,755,485.92. With the 45 agencies, Tukwila's share ranges from $9,069.69 to $27,752.77, with the lowest bid from I -Ten. To date, King County has not selected the final responsive bidder, but requests that the Interlocal be approved with payment by February 29, 2012. The aerial flight must be completed by April 30, 2012 for optimal results (with "leaf off' tree conditions). Due to these time constraints, we are asking Council approval for the highest bid with a "not to exceed" total of $31,915.69 (aerial photos /data $27,752.77 15% contingency of $4,162.92). With five bidders, we believe that this amount will be less, but the budget is sufficient to cover the highest bid. Bid Results 2012 Budget King County Contract Tukwila's portion) $9,069.69 $27,752.77 $35,000.00 RECOMMENDATION Council is being asked to approve the interlocal funding agreement with King County for the 2012 Regional Aerial Mapping project in the amount not to exceed $31,915.69 and consider this item at the February 13, 2012 Committee of the Whole meeting and subsequent February 20, 2012 Regular Meeting.

Regionallmagery2012 _Funding_Final.docx 136 6 VII. CONTRIBUTIONS BY PARTIES 1. By executing Counterparts, Section XIX of this Agreement, each Party agrees to pay its required monetary contribution, as stated on the signature page, for all Standard and Supplemental Deliverables for its AOI. 2. The actual contribution for each Party (exclusive of grant funds) shall be calculated once the Vendor contract price is set, using the cost allocation model set forth below, which will include a contingency percentage to be determined by the PSC. Cost allocation model for Standard Deliverables (imagery and supporting data): Each Party's funding commitment will be factored as the cost per full 3000 -ft x 3000 -ft tile (Tile) that intersects its AOI, discounting for significant areas of water. For Tiles where AOIs overlap, the cost will be prorated equally among the affected Parties. Cost allocation model for Supplemental Deliverables: Each Party's commitment will be factored as the deliverable unit cost times the area of the Party's AOI for that deliverable. Where AOIs overlap for the same deliverable, the cost will be prorated equally among the affected Parties. It is the sole responsibility of any affected Party to define the SOW requirements for its Supplemental Deliverables and to pay full costs, if not prorated with another Party. 3. By signing this Agreement, each Party commits to paying its full contribution to the King County Imagery Reserve Fund by 4 p.m., January 31, 2012. Any qualifications to this commitment will be stated in Counterparts, Section XIX, for that Party. An invoice will be generated for each Party. 4. All payments to the King County Imagery Reserve Fund shall be made by check payable to King County Finance, and sent to King County GIS, 201 S Jackson St, Suite 706, Seattle, WA 98104, Attn: Katy Cressey. 5. By signing this Agreement each Party is committing to license the primary Standard Deliverables (orthoimagery and supporting data) for its AOI resulting from this Project. Default licensing terms will apply unless Party specific licensing terms are included in the SOW. Each Party requiring licensing language different than the default will provide such language for inclusion in the SOW. In contrast, Supplemental Deliverables will be purchased (owned outright) by each Party committing to this Agreement. 6. Except for a contingency amount, as determined by the PSC, King County shall not collect funds in excess of the Vendor contract price unless the contract price has been amended with a PSC- approved change order. All funds collected by King County shall be used solely to pay the Vendor for work completed under the Vendor contract. King County shall not collect, receive or retain any of these funds for project management, administrative fees, or other actions it performs under this Agreement. Should there be an excess of funds, King County will refund any excess if greater than $10, and if Region alImagery2012_Funding_Final. docx 137 the affected Party specifically requests the refund. Any excess not refunded shall remain in the Imagery Reserve Fund for use in subsequent regional imagery acquisitions, until this Agreement (or as amended) expires, at which time all remaining funds will be refunded to the affected Parties. 7. If a Party's contribution is made up in whole or in part of grant funds, the Party agrees to provide King County with a copy of the contract between itself and the grant funding agency in order to assist King County and the PSC in complying with the requirements of any such grant. The grant contract shall be provided as soon as possible after committing to this Agreement, and no later than when the Party deposits its funds with King County. 8. In addition to the fiscal commitment for funding the Standard Deliverables and optional Supplemental Deliverables, Parties may, but are not required to, contribute as follows: a. Participate as a member or alternate to the PSC. b. Participate as a member of the TWG or other committee. This may include assisting in establishing ground control, developing specifications for Supplemental Deliverables required by the Party, and developing QC /QA procedures for Standard and Supplemental Deliverables required by the Party. c. Perform all detailed QC /QA of Standard and Supplemental Deliverables (if any) for its AOI using a TWG defined plan and schedule. (The PM will perform limited, baseline assessment of the Standard Deliverables only). VIII. ADDITION OF PARTIES 1. An entity may be added to this Agreement as long as the entity signs this Agreement by 4 p.m. December 2, 2011, or by 4 p.m. on the fourteenth (14th) day after the PSC selects a winning bidder, if after December 2 2011. 2. A Party added to this Agreement shall make full payment to the King County Imagery Reserve Fund by 4 p.m. January 31, 2012. A Party may contribute its share from its budget for either FY 2011 or FY 2012. 3. Any entity who wishes to participate in the Agreement after the date established in VIII.1 may become a Party by contributing the required funds to the King County Image Reserve Fund. This contribution will be the full cost (not prorated if shared by other Parties) of a Tile, if a Standard Deliverable, or the applied unit cost, if a Supplemental Deliverable. Any funds due to a Party, whose cost would have otherwise been prorated due to the additional Party, will be managed per Section VII.6. IX.

XI. AMENDMENT The Parties may amend this Agreement. Such amendments shall not be binding unless in writing and signed by personnel authorized to bind each of the Parties. XII. CHOICE OF LAW AND VENUE This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of Washington, both as to interpretation and performance. Any action at law, suit in equity or other judicial proceeding for the enforcement of this Agreement shall be instituted only in a court of competent jurisdiction in King County. XIII.

There are no promises, terms, conditions or obligations other than those contained in this Agreement. This Agreement supersedes all previous communications, representations or agreements, either oral or written, between any Party and King County. XIV. TERMINATION CLAUSE In the event that King County decides not to hire a Vendor, this Agreement will terminate and all Parties will receive a full refund of their contributed funds. XV. NO ASSIGNMENT The Parties shall not subcontract, assign, or delegate any of their rights, duties or obligations under this Agreement without the express prior written approval of King County. Regional Imagery20 l 2_Funding_F inal. docx 139 9 XVI. DISPUTES In the event that a dispute arises under this Agreement, the Parties shall endeavor to resolve the dispute in an amicable manner by direct discussions. The Parties may elevate the dispute to the PSC for resolution. If not resolved by the PSC by mutual agreement, then the Parties may engage in alternative dispute resolution by mutual agreement. No party waives its rights to seek legal remedy in the jurisdiction and venue stated in Section XII. XVII.

The City anticipates collecting 25 -30 tons of material from the local waste stream per year. The benefits expected by the collection of these materials will be to divert them from the waste stream and process them for recycling. The event will also provide an opportunity to recycle moderate risk waste. The King County Health Department, the City of Tukwila, and Washington State Department of Ecology will pay for event expenses as well. F) Task Impact Objectives: By hosting Recycling Collection Events, Tukwila can reduce the amount of recyclable material finding their way to the local landfill. The City of Tukwila has a population of approximately 18,200. The City expects, based on past events, that 350_ 450 households will actively participate each year by bringing recyclable materials to the event for proper disposal and recycling. This will result in 25 -30 tons of material diverted from the local waste stream for recycling per year. In addition to diverting materials from the City waste stream, attracting residents to events provides an opportunity to distribute educational material on City and King County recycling programs. The educational materials can enhance the knowledge of residents and improve behavior in purchase, handling, and disposal of recyclable materials.

We expect to generate requests for recycling assistance by including information about City- sponsored recycling programs in the "Tukwila Reporter," and with business license mailings. We will send targeted postcards to businesses and emails to Tukwila members of the Southwest King County Chamber of Commerce in 2012 and 2013. These messages will reach all 2000 firms who operate in Tukwila at least once. We will also maintain Business Recycling information on the City of Tukwila website. We plan to work with individual businesses, multi -tenant properties and property managers to help them start or improve their programs in recycling, waste prevention, and procurement of recycled content products. We will continue to focus on City of Tukwila as a business to improve recycling, waste reduction and environmentally preferable purchasing practices among City of Tukwila employees, at City of Tukwila facilities, and at City- sponsored events for the public. We will continue recognition programs that highlight outstanding business recycling programs throughout Tukwila "Tukwila Green Works" and "Tukwila Business Recycler of the Year If other opportunities arise, we will adjust the work plan for greatest effectiveness. Timely, scheduled telephone follow -up will be provided to all businesses reached for technical assistance either by the staff project manager or the consultant.

We will give them information about recycling onsite, as well as proper offsite disposal/recycling of electronics and mercury bulbs. By contacting companies directly with individualized information we hope to prepare and motivate businesses to change and improve their solid waste behaviors. We will continue to coordinate with King County's Business Recycling Program by working with any Tukwila business that is referred to us, and to participate in the Solid Waste Division's industry- topic or area- specific campaigns. We hope to work proactively with Local Hazardous Waste Management Program and Southwest King County Chamber of Commerce staff for additional referrals and information sharing. The City of Tukwila's current solid waste contract with Allied Waste expires on October 31, 2012. As of October, 2011, Tukwila staff is reviewing proposals from different haulers who wish to be chosen to implement the new contract. Alternative services, including embedded commercial recycling rates, are being considered. Depending on which hauler and which alternatives are chosen, the City of Tukwila staff will adjust our technical assistance activities to coordinate with the new hauler and maximize the program's success and waste diversion. Promotion/Education We plan to promote non residential recycling and waste prevention by through a variety of activities, including a selection of the following: Updating recycling information on Tukwila's website Property manager outreach events Informational materials promoting non residential. recycling and proper disposal of electronics, mercury bulbs, other hazardous materials. Materials will include: e- newsletter, case studies, customized informational stickers and posters with recycling specifics, materials on purchasing environmentally preferable products, handout for use with janitorial companies, e -cycle brochures, etc. "Tukwila Green Works" program to recognize outstanding business performance. "Tukwila Business Recycler of the Year" award to stimulate interest in recycling Purchase, distribute additional recycled content promotional materials (i.e. pens, pencils) Update and distribute "Tukwila Business Recycling Guide" with business license renewals and to individual businesses in 2012 and 2013 Purchase and distribute desk side containers to encourage businesses to begin or upgrade recycling efforts We will coordinate our promotion/education activities with King County as appropriate, including: using the County's program materials; participating in County promotional activities /advertising, including the "Take it Back" network, and other promotions; working with Local Hazardous Waste Management Staff for mutual business referrals.

Schedule Subtask 1: Rain Barrels to be sold at an event in either 2012 or 2013 Subtask 2: Support for residential reuse, recycling and waste prevention through events and information, such as the Tukwila Community Garage Sale and website updates. c. Goals Subtask 1: Rain Barrels: Increase awareness of and participation in water conservation and alternate yard and green gardening strategies among (single family) Tukwila residents Raise awareness among home gardeners about use of recycled- content gardening equipment (i.e. recycled plastic rain barrels) Subtask 2: Community Event and information Support the practice of recycling and reuse of household goods by supporting an event, such as the community -wide "garage sale" for Tukwila residents, and updating recycling information on the City of Tukwila website. e. Program/Project Specifics 1) Background/History Subtask 1: Rain barrels provide a popular green gardening product for Tukwila residents. In prior years, the City has offered compost bins, worm bins and compost bins for residents at significant subsidy. Each item has been well received, and has increased composting (compost bins, worm bins) or water conserving (rain barrel) behaviors among Tukwila residents, as well as awareness of recycled content goods. This project's intent is to provide to encourage purchase of recycled content goods, and water conservation/green gardening behaviors in the community. Grant funds will be used to pay a contractor to sell the barrels at a community event, most likely the annual RCE. Task Performance Objectives: Subtask 1: Over the grant period, the City will make up to 100 recycled plastic rain barrels available to residents either at a specific sales event, at Special Recycling Collections, or through a "virtual" sale (i.e. by mail). The City will buy the barrels, subsidize the cost using WRR funding, and charge the residents a reduced fee of approximately $20 per barrel. The City will publicize the distribution event(s) through mailings to residents. Along with the barrels, the City will also provide educational materials with either a "recycled product focus," and/or a "green gardening/water conservation" message which stress using recycled content products and/or either water conservation and other environmentally friendly alternatives in yard care.

Depending on the number of rain barrels sold, we anticipate diverting a significant amount of plastic from the waste stream and providing a clear demonstration of the value of recycled content products. In addition to encouraging market development for plastics, distributing rain barrels encourages Tukwila residents to conserve water for reuse in the lawn and garden, and reduces surface water runoff. Subtask 2: Evaluation Subtask 1: Track number of rain barrels distributed to residents Track number, type of promotional/educational materials Sample email survey of rain barrel purchases to determine use levels and interest in recycled content products Subtask 2: Track number residents participating in Community Garage Sale Survey all participants in the Community Garage Sale to see their satisfaction with the Community Garage Sale, and to gauge their interest in future recycling/waste prevention programs and activities.

This may include the Tukwila Comprehensive Land Use Plan, Building Code and other supporting plans and codes Subtask 4.1: "Green" Building Code Subtask 1: Green Building Code Background: Buildings are large energy users: in the Puget Sound region, about 22% of the greenhouse gas emissions that contribute to global climate change are attributed to the building sector. Additional environmental impacts include contaminated storm water generated by continued creation of hard surfaces, and burdens on existing landfill space from construction and demolition debris generation. Green building techniques incorporated into the Building Code, coupled with upgrades and proper maintenance of existing buildings, can help reduce these impacts, improve the environment and increase sustainability. At present, the City of Tukwila Building Code does not incorporate recent "green construction" practices. The City of Tukwila wishes to amend its construction codes to incorporate requirements to reduce the negative potential impacts and increase the positive potential impacts of the built environment. Building Division staff will study the International Code Council's model code International Green Construction Code (IgCC); subtitled "Safe and Sustainable: By the Book." Based on its study of the ICC's model code and with consideration to local conditions and impacts, staff will develop proposed changes to be incorporated into Tukwila's Building Codes. Green building design and performance for new and existing commercial buildings will be the scope of the proposed changes. Staff will take its findings and recommendations to the City Council for public review, consideration, approval and adoption of a final version. Tukwila staff will outreach and educate the interested public, primarily the development and construction community, through information on the City of Tukwila website, and a public meeting before the Tukwila City Council. Other education and outreach methods may be used/substituted as appropriate. Objective- The objective of this task is to update the City of Tukwila's Building Code by incorporating specific environmentally sound practices and sustainability considerations. How grant funds will be used: Grant funds will be used for staff support in 2012 and 2013 through the code development, review, outreach and adoption process RF Page 9 of 11 01/17/2012 CADocuments and Settings\rebecca\L.ocal SettingATemporary lntemet Files \Content.Outlook\BVYLCN4S \tuk FINAL -wRR scope 2012 2013.doc 163 Subtask 2: Urban Forestry and Tree Protection Exhibit A Background Tukwila has begun an Urban Forestry planning effort which will establish new goals and policies for canopy cover, tree retention, tree protection, and urban forestry maintenance. The first step in the effort is to conduct an urban canopy assessment to serve as a baseline for developing the goals and policies in a new urban forestry chapter of the City's Comprehensive Plan. This will recognize the value of trees in an urban setting particularly those functions related to energy efficiency and stormwater management. It is hoped that the canopy assessment would be completed in mid -2012 (pending receipt of grant funds). An urban forestry policy committee (made up of citizens and representatives of businesses, the Planning Commission, the Parks Board, environmental groups, and landscape /arborist groups) will be appointed in late 2012 to assist the City with the development of goals and policies to be incorporated in the Comprehensive Plan. Once the goals and policies are established, the committee will assist the City over the next several years (during 2013 and into 2014) in: Revisions to the existing Tree Ordinance, to improve its effectiveness in light of the new policies. The existing ordinance, adopted in 1995, is confusing, only regulates individual trees in sensitive areas and is not really providing much tree protection on steep slopes. It also does not specify state -of -the art tree protection measures to be used during construction activities. Revisions to the Landscape Code, to address new urban forestry policies, increase energy efficiency and improve storm water management in commercial and industrial zones. These revisions will help in implementing the City's new storm water regulations which encourage low impact development using on -site infiltration methods. Increasing tree canopy and density in these areas will help promote more environmentally friendly storm water management. The intent would also be to improve tree management in these areas to provide for more diversity in species, promote better tree care (such as prohibiting topping or improper pruning, require replacement if a tree dies, etc.). Revisions to street tree policies and a plan for street tree management and funding. There is currently inadequate funding for street tree installation and no measures to regulate tree care, conflicting policies about allowed tree species, lack of understanding about maintaining tree health, Development of an urban forestry management plan on publicly owned lands to improve urban forest cover, health, and diversity. The plan would identify needs, specific goals for each public area, and mechanisms for stewardship and funding.

Work will focus on trees as green infrastructure (i.e. management of stormwater, energy efficiency, noise control, control of air pollution, and carbon sequestration) as well as their habitat, aesthetic, and economic development value. The funds will support Department of Community Development staff in developing outreach materials, publishing articles in the Hazelnut newsletter and the Tukwila Reporter, setting up a new Urban Forestry section on the City website (in collaboration with the IT Department), and conducting a workshop for elected officials, the Urban Forestry Policy Committee and the general public. Any additional /remaining grant funds will be used to analyze and prepare policy and code alternatives, including adding a sustainability consideration to other elements /chapters of the Tukwila Comprehensive Plan. Budget The budget will be split between the green building code and tree preservation tasks.

Cities may. also use their funds on broader resource conservation programs, as long as they are part of an overall waste reduction/recycling program. Cities may choose to use their funding on one program or a combination of programs. For WR/R program ideas, please refer to the Program Eligibility section below. Please note these lists are not exhaustive, but merely intended to provide some guidance on what is /isn't eligible. Cities may also refer to the currently adopted Comprehensive Solid Waste Management Plan for direction in program development. If you are unsure if your proposed program is eligible for funding, please call Morgan John (206 296 8443). Eligible for funding: School WR/R education/implementation programs Kitchen food waste composting programs Reusable bag promotions Yard waste subscription promotions Outreach at community events.

However, the County would not provide reimbursement if, for example, all of a city's grant dollars were used to sell/give away rain barrels or distribute compact fluorescent light bulbs. Water Conservation i.e. Rain Barrels Energy Conservation Water Quality: integrated pest management; catch basin filters Demonstration gardens; interpretive signage; recycled- content park furnishings 2012 -2013 WR/R Grant 166 The following are not eligible for funding: Collection of garbage, except for residual garbage related to the collection of recyclables. Collection of any household hazardous waste items including, but not limited to: Treated wood Paint Lead acid batteries Oil, gasoline, and antifreeze Florescent lights Household Hazardous Waste Education Programs Cities should pursue funding through LHWMP or CPG for Household Hazardous Waste collection or education programs. Grant Administration: Requests, for Reimbursement: Cities may submit as few as two requests for reimbursement during the funding cycle, with the first request due by January 31, 2013 and the final request due no later than March 15, 2014. However, cities may submit requests for reimbursement as frequently as quarterly. Quarterly requests should be submitted on April 30, July 31, Oct. 31 and Jan 31 of each year, except for the final request for reimbursement, which is due no later than March 15, 2014. The Budget Summary Report Form (Attachment 4) must be used when submitting requests for reimbursement. By December 31" of each year of the grant cycle, cities must notify SWD of their total expenditures for work that has been completed to -date, but for which requests for reimbursement have not yet been submitted. Progress and Final Reports: Progress reports describing program activities,, accomplishments and evaluation results need to accompany each request for reimbursement. A final report describing the outcome of grant funded activities is due with the final request for reimbursement. If, however, the city does not have the results of its program evaluation by the end of the grant cycle, the final narrative report may be submitted no later than six months after the end of the grant cycle on June 30, 2014. (Note: The final request for reimbursement would still need to be submitted by March 15, 2014.) All Progress and Final Reports need to be signed by a city official. Signed reports may be submitted via facsimile. Amendments: Formal amendments to grant ILAs are not necessary unless the city wishes to make significant changes to its scope of work and/or budget. In general a significant change would be one in which the city wishes to add or delete a task from their scope of work. A minor change, such as moving dollars between tasks, would only require written notification, which may be submitted via e-mail. However, the city should contact the Division when considering changes to their scopes and budgets to determine if a formal amendment is needed. 167 llPIU/ I J/ Lu, I/ I up, ue: zo AM rAX No. P. 002/002 •i'::.r,c:i;3. ins: r 12 -Dec -I 1 Cert#: ?:i .J .ing County Solid Waste DivisioniDept of Natural Resources Parks Attn: 1-Morgan John Project Manager 201 S.
