2023 Year-End Report
ISSUE
This report summarizes the citywide financial results and highlights significant items or trends through the
end of 2023. The primary emphasis of the report is on the General Fund activities. Although the report
includes financial information about all City funds, the discretionary activity in the other funds is
constrained by statutory restrictions, unlike the General Fund.
General Fund revenues ended the year 5.4% over budget. Expenditures came in at 1.4% under budget.
Increased revenues were primarily a result of inflationary prices tied to high ahigh CPI. The delayed
implementation of anticipated wage and benefit adjustments associated with collective bargaining have
yielded reductions in expenditures. These expenses are expected to be paid in August 2024. The City met
its fund balance policy requirements and fund balance increased by approximately $1.6 million.
Additional details can be found in the attached financial reports.
DISCUSSION
2023 Highlights
General Fund
Unassigned beginning fund balance was $17.2 million and exceeded the fund balance policy
requirements. Ending fund balance is higher than expected due to the delay in finalizing labor
contracts.
Revenue came in at $78 million, which is 5.4% above budget of $74.5 million. Major revenue
performers were sales tax, gambling tax, and building permits.
Salaries and benefits were lower than budget due to ongoing collective bargaining with Teamsters
Local 763. A retroactive payment will be made in 2024.
General Fund departmental expenditures ended the year at $67.2 million and transfers out are at $9.7
million for a total general fund expenditures of $76.9 million.
Total general fund expenditures are below allocated budget by $1.1 million. As previously noted, this
is largely due to one-time savings generated from staff vacancies and pending wage and benefit
adjustments associated with collective bargaining.
Other Funds
Several capital projects are in process including.
S 152nd Safe Routes to School and S 119th Bridge Safety improvements in the residential street fund
42nd Ave S Bridge Replacement, Allentown Truck Reroute, and W Valley Highway projects in the
arterial street fund

recognize that this reduction does not constitute actual savings due to ongoing labor
negotiations.

The City of Tukwila relies heavily on sales tax revenue. Although overall tax revenue has
increased annually, the Retail Trade sector, the largest contributor, is experiencing a
decline. Conversely, the Service and Construction sectors are the top performers. The
robust performance in the Construction sector is further evidenced by the significant rise
in Building Permit revenues.

EXPENDITURES
General Fund expenditures totaled $76.8 million, which is $1.1 million below the allocated
budget of $77.9 million. However, due to ongoing labor negotiations, the $1.1 million
under budget does not represent savings.
All General Fund departments ended the year within budget. The increase to the Non-
Departmental was attributed to new 2023 Governmental Accounting Standards Board
(GASB), GASB 96 Subscription-Based IT Arrangements (SBITA).

ARPA
Recap of ARPA to Date
On March 10, 2021, a $1.9 trillion relief package, known as the American Rescue Plan Act, was
approved and provided funding in several areas including state and local aid, education, rental
assistance, and transit. The City was allocated $5.68 million with the first half received in June of
2021 and the second half received in July of 2022. Funds must be spent or contractually
committed by December 31, 2024
This chart shows the flow of ARPA funds after three years of council-approved expenditures.
Unallocated funds are due to expenditures that have underspend their budget allocation. More to
come regarding spending recommendations for unallocated total.
Per US Treasury ARPA requirements, Cities must contractually obligate all funds by 12/31/2024
and expend funds by 12/31/26. Council-approved allocations are expected to fully expend ARPA
funds by 12/31/24. A plan will be forthcoming on how best to utilize the remaining ARPA funds.

Cash & Investment Year-End Report
The City’s investment portfolio provided approximately $3.2 million in cash flow during
2023. The City has benefited from historically high interest rates, with money markets
paying over 5% at year end. Most of the longer-term bond investments in the portfolio
are currently callable, but with interest rates remaining high, few are expected to be
called. Two new bonds were purchased, and two bonds were matured/called during the
year; so, the City’s total bond investments were unchanged during the year.

Capital Projects
The Allentown Truck Reroute project recommended alternatives for further consideration.
The Transportation Element Comp Plan incorporated community input into draft
transportation networks. West Valley Highway (I405 to Strander) Project completed
significant work, including stripping and installations. Construction progressed on Overlay
& Repair, and Foster Point Repairs were completed in Bridge Inspections. S 152nd Safe
Routes to School moved forward with design, and ADA improvements were embedded
into ongoing projects. Public Works Shops Phase 1 and Phase 2 advanced with roofing
and painting updates.
Utility Funds
Utility projects achieved significant milestones. The Levee Certification/Green River
Corridor project involved ongoing collaboration with the Army Corps of Engineers.
Regulatory reviews continued for the Surface Water, Water & Sewer Comprehensive
Plans, while the Surface Water Comp Plan was actively developed. The GIS Utilities
Inventory project, now nearing completion, benefited from the hired GIS Field Technician's
30
23
contributions. Construction progressed for the S 152nd Waterline Extension. Gilliam
Creek Fish Barrier Removal and Nelsen Side Channel projects advanced with ongoing
design work. Stormwater Quality Retrofit reached the 90% design stage, and the City
pursued wetland delineation for S 131st Drainage Improvements. The Annual Small
Drainage Program secured a design consultant, and NPDES Program compliance was
ensured through the successful hiring of new inspectors. The Green the Green project,
involving grants and vegetation management, continued, and the Chinook Wind Public
Access/Extension project received a grant of $280,000 for design activities.
Foster Golf Course
Foster Golf Course entered into a strategic partnership with GolfNow, a prominent player
in the online tee time booking service sector. This business arrangement has not only
facilitated an upgraded website for Foster Golf Course but has also resulted in increased
online visibility, amplifying the course's presence during customer searches for golf
facilities. Leveraging these enhancements, the department management successfully
justified a modest adjustment in Green Fees, aligning the cost of a round of golf with that
of other municipal golf courses in the city.
Equipment Rental
The Equipment Rental Fund has strategically leveraged the Enterprise Fleet Leasing
program by adding twelve new patrol vehicles into its fleet, thereby completing the
implementation of the Police Department's take-home vehicle program. This initiative not
only enhances response times but also strengthens the Police Department's competitive
edge in attracting new officers and recruits.
Additionally, the utilization of the fleet leasing program has enabled the Equipment Rental
department to capitalize on surplus vehicles during opportune periods, leading to elevated
resale values. The department has realized a noteworthy sum of $326,067 from the Sale
of Capital Assets, surpassing the budget by $164,317 (201.6%). This financial
achievement underscores the effective management and optimization of resources within
the department.
Lodging Tax
Lodging tax revenue is on pace to meet and exceed budget. Lodging tax revenue through
September is $787k and exceeds allocated budget by $61k.
Drug Seizure
The seizure fund brought in $79,010 through the Dept of Justice’s Equitable Sharing
program and $63,433 of funds spent from these Seizure Funds was reimbursed by the
Associated of Washington Cities via their Alternative Response Team Grant (this is the
program that partially funds the Police Department’s Mental Health Co-Responder
program).
31
24
On the expenditure side, the Police Department sent $82,322 to Sound Mental Health as
contracted compensation for our two Mental Health Co-Responders (a portion of these
expenditures will be returned to us via the grant). The Police Department also spent
$11,423 of these Seizure Funds to replace our Special Response Team’s (SWAT)
ballasted-rated helmets and $6,716 on a software program used by our detectives to aid
them in solving felony crimes.
Debt Service Funds
Debt Service is funded by budgetary approved interfund transfers. All long-term debt
obligations are paid timely and in accordance with the debt schedule.
Insurance – Active Employees / Insurance LEOFF 1 Retirees Funds
The Insurance funds are trending as anticipated. The funds are adequately funded, and
Program Cost expenditures are slightly under budget. Both funds are stable and well
positioned heading into 2024.
