INFORMATIONAL MEMORANDUM
TO: Community Services & Safety Committee
FROM: David Rosen, Parks & Recreation Fiscal Analyst
DATE: March 1, 2023
SUBJECT: Grant Acceptance — Veterans, Seniors, and Human Services Levy (VSHSL)
ISSUE
The Tukwila Parks and Recreation Department has been awarded $60,000 in grant funding from the
King County Department of Community and Human Services. This grant, due to its monetary amount,
requires council approval to be accepted.
BACKGROUND
The VSHSL is a voter approved six-year property tax levy that envisions senior centers in King County
as inclusive central hubs where diverse groups of older adults can form community bonds and access a
variety of senior programming and services. Tukwila has received VSHSL funding for several years.
The current levy is set to expire in December 2023. A request for renewing the levy will go before the
King County Council in May and if approved will go to voters in August.
DISCUSSION
Staff were informed in October of the grant award. However, by the time the contract amendment had
been provided by King County, the active contract had expired. Per city policy, staff requested King
County issue the city a new contract for execution, which was received in mid-February.
Some program highlights of the VSHSL include:
• Providing services such as fitness passes, art classes, and community engagement
opportunities to 614 unique people in FY22 and 790 unique people in the past several FYs
• Hosting 8,689 senior fitness membership scans in FY22
• Providing "Hub" partner events with the City of Burien for veterans such as a picnic, Mariners
game, Veteran's Day event, waterways cruise, and the 12 Days of Goodness with the Seattle
Seahawks. These events served 237 veterans and family members. A "Hub" refers to services
or events being coordinated by multiple community centers such as Tukwila and Burien.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
The grant award is in the amount of $60,000, with payments coming quarterly for preceding quarters
(4/14/23, 7/14/23, 10/13/23, and 1/15/24) in equal installments. The grant does not require a match and
therefore does not create any net financial impact on the General Fund. Staff did not budget to receive
these revenues in the FY23/24 budget as the status of the levy was unclear at the time. Had the grant
not been received, services would have either been reduced and/or greater cost recovery would have
been required from program participants.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends the attached contract be forwarded for approval on the City Council Consent Agenda
on Monday, March 20tH

Contract. The Contractor's obligations under this Subsection 13.C. shall extend to any
claim, demand, and/or cause of action brought by, or on behalf of, any of its employees or

respects the County only, any immunity that would otherwise be available against such
claims under any industrial insurance act, including Title 51 RCW, other Workers'
Compensation act, disability benefit act, or other employee benefit act of any jurisdiction
which would otherwise be applicable in the case of such claim. In addition, the Contractor
shall protect and assume the defense of the County and its officers, agents, and

expenses, and costs shall be recoverable from the Contractor.
D. County Indemnifies Contractor:
To the maximum extent permitted by law, the County shall protect, defend, indemnify, and

obligations under this Subsection 13.D. extend to any claim, demand, and/or cause of
action brought by, or on behalf of, any of its employees or agents. For this purpose, the

immunity that would otherwise be available against such claims under the Industrial
City of Tukwila Page 8 of 20 Contract - 6349000
10
Insurance provisions of Title 51 RCW. In the event the Contractor incurs any judgment,
award, and/or cost arising therefrom including reasonable attorneys' fees to enforce the
provisions of this article, all such fees, expenses, and costs shall be recoverable from the
County.
E. Intellectual Property Infringement:
For purposes of this Subsection 13.E., claims shall include, but not be limited to,
assertions that use or transfer of software, book, document, report, film, tape, or sound
reproduction or material of any kind, delivered hereunder, constitutes an infringement of
any copyright, patent, trademark, trade name, and/or otherwise results in unfair trade
practice.
The indemnification, protection, defense, and save harmless obligations contained herein
shall survive the expiration, abandonment, or termination of this Contract.
14. Insurance Requirements

Certificate of Insurance and endorsements covering King County as additional insured for full
coverage and policy limits within 30 calendar days of Contract execution. Evidence of insurance
and endorsements shall be submitted by email to DCHSContracts@kingcounty.gov. The
Contractor may request additional time to provide the required documents by emailing
DCHSContracts(c,kingcountv.gov. Extensions will be granted at the sole discretion of the
County. All evidence of insurance shall be signed by a properly authorized officer, agent,
general agent, or qualified representative of the insurer(s), shall certify the name of the
insured(s), the type and amount of insurance, the inception and expiration dates, contract
number, and shall state that the County shall receive notice at least thirty (30) days prior to the
effective date of any cancellation, lapse, or material change in the policy. Similar documentation
confirming renewal of required insurance shall be provided on each insurance renewal date.
In the event of a loss, the County reserves the right to require complete, certified copies of all
required insurance policies, including endorsements and riders, which may be redacted of any
confidential or proprietary information. Contractor shall deliver such policies to the County within
five (5) business days of County's request.
County's receipt or acceptance of Contractor's evidence of insurance at any time without
comment or objection, or County's failure to request certified copies of such insurance, does not
waive, alter, modify, or invalidate any of the insurance requirements set forth in this Section or,
consequently, constitute County's acceptance of the adequacy of Contractor's insurance.
Unless otherwise provided in an Exhibit to this Contract, the Contractor shall purchase and
maintain, at its sole cost and expense, the minimum insurance set forth below. By requiring
such minimum insurance, County does not and shall not be deemed or construed to have
assessed the risks that may be applicable to Contractor, or any Subcontractor, under this
Contract, or in any way limit County's potential recovery to insurance limits required hereunder.
To the contrary, this Contract's insurance requirements may not in any way be construed as
limiting any potential liability to County or County's potential recovery for Contractor. Contractor
shall assess its own risks and if it deems appropriate and/or prudent, maintain greater limits
and/or broader coverage.
City of Tukwila Page 9 of 20 Contract - 6349000

unavailable, (ii) the purchase of a tail/extended reporting period for not less than three (3) years
from the date of completion of the work which is subject of this Contract. All insurance written on
a "claims made" basis/form must have its policy inception or retroactive date be no later than the
effective date of the Contract, unless otherwise approved in writing by the County's Risk
Management Office.
A. Minimum Scope and Limits of Insurance

strategy will expand King County's racial equity goals by conducting inclusive outreach
to diverse older adults. Partner agencies will pay particular attention in outreaching to
Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) communities, communities whose
primary language is not English, and communities experiencing poverty with reduced
access to needed resources.

necessary, additional evaluation activities, such as focus groups, surveys or

At least one of each type of performance measure (below) shall be included in
the final PME Plan. Where there are multiple contractors working on a related
program or strategy, the PME Plan may also include at least one strategy -level
performance measure.
