INFORMATIONAL MEMORANDUM
TO: Community Services and Safety Committee
CC: Mayor Ekberg
FROM: Niesha Fort -Brooks, Community Engagement Manger
DATE: March 1, 2022
SUBJECT: Tukwila Works — SeeClickFix Relaunch Reporting Tool Update
ISSUE
Staff is updating the Council on the re -launch of the SeeClickFix Tukwila Works online
reporting tool and mobile phone app.
BACKGROUND
In 2020 the City disabled the Tukwila Works online reporting tool managed by SeeClickFix due
to budget and staff reductions associated with the Coronavirus pandemic. To ensure the City
provided the highest level of customer service, the City re -launched an internal Tukwila Works
Sintel form developed by the Technology and Innovation Services Department. Residents and
guest can report non -emergency issues through the City website at
TukwilaWA.gov/Tukwilaworks or by going to the City's homepage and clicking on "Report an
Issue" on the righthand side of the webpage. The City continues to address issues via email to
TukwilaWorks@TukwilaWa.go,: or reported by phone at (206) 433-1800. Technical issues
related to the Tukwila Works were addressed by City staff.
In October of 2021, staff updated the Council on the internal Tukwila Works Sintel form. The
Tukwila Works Sintel reporting tool provided residents with real-time updates and guests via
email with a link acknowledging that the form has been received from each City department
and tracking capabilities. However, some of the functionality provided in the original Tukwila
Works application were not available. Because of this, the Council asked staff to go back and
assess costs to bring back the Tukwila Works.
DISCUSSION
In late fall of 2021, staff convened a series of meetings with SeeClickFix to re -launch the
SeeClickFix online reporting tool. The City Council approved using American Rescue Plan Act
(ARPA) funds to bring back Tukwila Works. On March 1, 2022, the SeeClickFix mobile phone
app successfully re -launched. Residents and guest who previously had the Tukwila Works
mobile app, must uninstall and reinstall the newest version. Once installed, residents and
guests must type in the City of Tukwila. The latest version will feature the City of Tukwila's
Community Center banner and City logo. Staff will begin notifying residents and guest on the
City website, social media platforms, Hazelnut and e -Hazelnut newsletter.

Police Department Use of Force Review 2021
ISSUE
The Tukwila Police Department conducted a review of all uses of force initiated by officers
during 2021.
BACKGROUND
This is the 2nd year that the police department reviewed all use of force incidents together with
community representatives. The community representatives were the same in 2020, which
consisted of members selected for the Valley Independent Investigative Team related to officer
involved shooting incidents. The participants were Sean Goode, Allan Howard, Ross Dworman,
and Sharon Myklebust. Also included in the discussions were defensive tactics instructors from
the department. The participants from the PD included Sergeant Isaiah Harris, Detective Erik
Kunsmann, and Officer Eric Hines.
For 2021 the group met quarterly to review more current incidents. The dates that the group met
were:
• Quarter 1 review
• Quarter 2 review
• Quarter 3 review
• Quarter 4 review
— May 11th, 2021
— August 10th, 2021
— December 23rd, 2021
— February 8th, 2022
The review process consists of a basic overview of each incident which includes the type of call,
type of force used, injuries sustained (to the subject and/or officer), how the force was reviewed,
and the disposition of the report. If body -worn camera footage was available, a clip of the force
used was shown to the group. After each incident, the community reps were encouraged to ask
questions about the incident.
ANALYSIS
In 2021 there were 34 reported use of force incidents. This is a 37% decrease from 2020. The
PD responded to 31,317 calls for service (CFS) in 2021. Force was used only in 0.10% of CFS.
755 calls were cleared with an arrest, which is down 29% from 2020. 439 calls were cleared
with a code indicating a possible mental health issue. This is down 24% from 2020. In all calls
involving an arrest or a possible mental health issue, force was used in 2.8% of the calls, down
0.6% from 2020.
In 2021 arrests were down 29% compared to 2020 even though CFS were up 4% from 2020.
The lower number of arrests can be contributed to legislative reform that was enacted in July of
2021. Officers currently are not able to physically detain an individual that is only suspected of
committing a crime, therefore, many suspects are simply walking away from officers before
probable cause is obtained.

INFORMATIONAL MEMO
Page 2
All 34 use of force incidents were reviewed at three levels within the department. After the UOF
report is submitted, it is reviewed by a Sergeant, Commander, and the Deputy Chief. The review
consists of reading reports and viewing BWC footage. All but one of the 34 use of force
incidents were found to be within policy. One of the incidents was found that one of the officers
could benefit from mentoring/coaching.
The citizen representatives did not have any issues or concerns with any of the use of force
incidents reviewed in 2021.
