FROM: Kris Kelly, Parks & Recreation Deputy Director
BY: David Rosen, Parks & Recreation Analyst
DATE: August 22, 2025
SUBJECT: Contract Amendment: Parks Security Services — B-Force Protection Services
ISSUE
The Parks and Recreation Department seeks to amend Contract 23-010 to extend its current parks
security services agreement through the end of Fiscal Year 2025. This three-month contract extension
will add expenses in an amount which, according to city policy, will require city council approval before
the mayor may sign and execute the amendment .
BACKGROUND
B-Force Protection Security Inc. has been the city's parks security services provider for the past several
years. At this time, the City is transitioning towards utilizing a city employed Parks Ranger for these
services in the future. Currently, the Parks & Recreation Department and the Tukwila Police
Department are interviewing finalists for the position. Until the position is fully deployed, the City intends
to continue utilizing B-Force's services for parks security.
DISCUSSION
Services Provided
The contract being amended currently provides the following services at the parks sites noted below:
• Patrol park: Visit site and walk-through park. Report any criminal activity, such as vandalism,
trespassing, and park rules violations to Tukwila Police.
• Lock park gates: Locking park gates. Lock any open bollards to secure parking area. Call for

New Sales Tax Imposition
During the 2025 Regular Session, the Washington State Legislature passed Engrossed Substitute
Senate Bill 5814 which reenacted RCW 82.04.050 ("Sale at retail," "retail sale.") to re -define the terms
"retail sale" to include, amongst other services, "Investigation, security services, security monitoring
services, and armored car services...". This bill has the effect of making the services provided by B-
Force, which falls under the definition of a security services, taxable per the RCW as of October 1st
2025. As of said date, the effective sales tax within the City of Tukwila will be 10.2%.

FINANCIAL IMPACT
Execution of this contract encumbers $22,527.36 in spending against the General Fund. This
encumbrance does not create new General Fund inflows or outflows as the Fiscal Year 25 Parks &
Recreation budget assumed a full -year of parks security services being provided via Contract 23-010 to
provide for operational flexibility depending on the exact hiring date of the Park Ranger.
RECOMMENDATION
City staff recommend the Community Services and Safety Committee forward the proposed contract
amendment to the September 15th Regular Meeting Consent Agenda for final approval.
