INFORMATIONAL MEMORANDUM
TO: Community Services & Safety Committee
FROM: David Rosen, Parks & Recreation Analyst
DATE: July 1, 2024
SUBJECT: Approval of FY24-26 Veterans, Seniors, and Human Services Levy Contract
ISSUE
The City of Tukwila Parks & Recreation Department has been awarded a $229,500 contract from the
King County Department of Community and Human Services (DCHS) for the remainder of Fiscal Year
2024 and Fiscal Years 2025 and 2026 as a part of the Veterans, Seniors, & Human Services Levy
(VSHSL). Staff are required to secure council approval before the mayor may sign the contract for
execution.
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 Parks & Recreation has received VSHSL funding
for several years. The last VSHSL levy expired in December 2023 with the newest version (2024 - 2029
Levy) having been approved by voters in August 2023.
Staff had previously come to Council this year with a VSHSL contract that was offered by King County
as a bridge while funding decisions were made for the new levy, this contract had been amended by
King County to expire on June 30, 2024.
DISCUSSION
Staff applied in March of this year for the renewal of our VSHSL contract via the RFP issued by King
County and were informed of an awarded application in early May. While it is a continuation of
previously received funding, it is under a new contract number, which per city policy, requires council
approval to be signed.
Some program highlights of the VSHSL include:
• Providing services such as fitness passes, art classes, and community engagement
opportunities to 843 unique participants in FY23
• Hosting 19,546 senior fitness membership scans in FY23
• 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. A "Hub" refers to services or events being coordinated by multiple community
centers such as Tukwila and Burien
At this time, staff do not have the contract in hand from King County, but know it will be for $229,500 in
total and have a Period of Performance from July 1, 2024 through December 31, 2026, it is staff's
understanding that King County has the option to renew its contract with the City of Tukwila at that time
without the need for participating in another RFP.

FY25/26 BUDGET CONSIDERATIONS
King County VSHSL funding supports the vast majority of senior programming provided by the Tukwila
Parks and Recreation Department, either through expanded programming opportunities, or lowering
and/or removal of participant fees to lessen potential socioeconomic barriers to access. In previous
years, the awarded amount per year had been $60,000 per fiscal year. We have confirmed with King
County our awarded amounts per fiscal year are as follows:
Fiscal Year Amount Awarded
2024 (July — December)
2025
$45,000
$90,000
2026
$94,500
$229,500
This represents a total increase in secured funding of $79,500 from July of 2024 through December of
2026 when considering the previous $60,000/year baseline. Tukwila Parks and Recreation is excited to
utilize these increased funds in service to our senior and veteran members of the Tukwila and King
County community.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
This grant award is in the form of a reimbursement grant. The grant does not require a match from the
City and therefore does not create any net financial impact on the General Fund (000) and/or any other
City funds.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends the grant details as presented, an eventual contract with King County DCHS for
$229,500 from 7/1/24 — 12/31/26 for senior and veteran programmatic services, be forwarded for
approval on the City Council Regular Meeting Agenda on Monday, July 15t"
Upon approval on July 15t" by the City Council and reception of necessary contract documents, staff
will seek a review by the City Attorney's Office before seeking the Mayor's signature for execution of
the proposed contract.
ATTACHMENTS
None at this time. Department staff are awaiting contract documents from King County.
