CORRIDOR AND TO THE DETERMINATION THAT
REHABILITATION AND /OR REDEVELOPMENT IS IN
THE PUBLIC INTEREST.
WHEREAS, the Tukwila International Boulevard corridor, formerly known as

6, 1999 (Attachment B); and
WHEREAS, although the platted land area within this limited area is 49 acres,
which is one percent of the total parcel area of the City, and the estimated 717 people
who reside within this area are five percent of the total City population, this area
averaged more than a 17% higher number of criminal case reports than for the City as a
whole from 1995 through 1998; and
WHEREAS, the attached inspection report from the Department of Labor and
Industries, dated March 28, 1995 (Attachment C), identifies a high number of public
health and safety violations at the Southgate Mobile Home Park that have yet to be
satisfactorily resolved, and of the 54 homes on the site only 34 are habitable; and
WHEREAS, a history of the code complaints shows that since 1992, the number of
housing complaints in the urban renewal area is four times the amount experienced in
the rest of the City; and
WHEREAS, a high number of separately -owned small and irregularly shaped
parcels substantially impairs and arrests the sound growth of the City, as graphically
shown on the attached maps (Attachments D); and
WHEREAS, such present conditions substantially impair and arrest the sound
growth of the City, retard the provision of housing accommodations, constitute an
economic and social liability, and constitute a menace to public safety, morals, health

MEMORANDUM
TO: John W. Rants, Mayor
John McFarland, City Administrator
Steve Lancaster, Director, Dept. of Community Development
FROM: Keith E. Haines, Chief of Police K:0-1-
DATE: October 6, 1999
SUBJECT: Crime Problems in Proposed Urban Renewal Area
I am writing you today to support the creation of the proposed urban renewal area within the Tukwila
International Boulevard Corridor. Although crime has been reduced across our city, the urban renewal
area continues to be an area challenged by Part I crime (Violent and Serious Crime) and Part II crime
(Miscellaneous Crime). The attached map is used to illustrate an analysis completed by our Crime
Analyst, Gina Chatterson.
The most significant issue to bring to your attention is that the percentage of Part I crime (Violent and
Serious Crime) is considerably higher in the urban renewal area than citywide. In 1998 the Part I
crime in the urban renewal area was 60% of the total crime there. During the same year, citywide our
Part I crime was only 43 of the total crime. Part I crimes include murder, rape, robbery, assault,
burglary, theft, motor vehicle theft, and arson.
As you know we have initiated numerous community policing and crime prevention strategies and
programs in this area. In February of 1995 we established our Neighborhood Resource Center in the
proposed urban renewal area. In September of 1995 we assisted in the organization of the Highway 99
Action Committee. We began bicycle patrols in this area that same year. In January of 1996 we
started our Crime Free Multi- Housing Program. In April of the same year we began the Tukwila
Citizen Patrol. In October of 1996 we installed video surveillance cameras in public areas of the urban
renewal area.
This area continues to be a target for our community policing and problem solving efforts. It remains
apparent, however, that police action alone will not remedy this ongoing public safety problem. I
would like to encourage an approach that will solve the underlying problems. Our efforts must include
serious redevelopment of the proposed urban renewal area to make a long term improvements to
safety and the quality of life.

SUMMARY:
This inspection was initiated at the request of the City of Tukwila through the Department of Labor and
Industries Agency Requested Inspection Procedure pursuant to Chapter 19.28 RCW. A preliminary
evaluation of the premises electrical system was conducted on March 21, 1995.. On March 28, 1995 a
more extensive inspection was performed with the assistance of additional department electrical
inspection personnel. The intent of this inspection was to provide the City of Tukwila with an
evaluation of the electrical wiring at the mobile home park. A detailed inspection of each mobile home,
trailer, and RV lot was not possible due to the scope of problems observed and lack of access. Some of
the electrical equipment and wiring could not be inspected because it has been rendered inaccessible due
to a variety of conditions. Access to this equipment will be required should a more detailed inspection
of the parks wiring system be requested.
During the coarse of the inspection it was observed that the premises electrical power distribution
system throughout the park is in an extreme state of disrepair. A major portion of the equipment and
wiring has deteriorated to a point where it poses a significant threat to life and property. It was very
apparent that a significant amount of the electrical system has been altered. There is evidence of recent
wiring of trailers and mobile homes. It appears that a number of the electrical installations have been
done with little or no regard to proper installation methods and codes for safe wiring. Also it is evident
that the alterations and additions to the electrical system have not been inspected or approved.

The scope of the code and safe wiring installation problem's extend throughout the park,
encompassing nearly every lot, mobile home, trailer and RV site, as well as the parks main service's
and power distribution centers. Violations of the state's electrical installations' law appear to have
been ongoing for a number of years.
This report does not purport to identify every code violation present at mobile home park. As
additional resources and for purposes of future reference, the electrical safety hazards observed were
documented by 35 mm photos and VHS video tape. The photos and VHS recording materials are
available for review. Copies are available upon request at the cost of the requester.
There were four areas identified which required immediate abatement due to exposed energized
electrical equipment and wiring. There are additional areas that will be required to be corrected
within 15 days pursuant to RCW 19.28.210. Examples of those conditions which were observed
throughout the premises are as follows;
b Exposed energized parts of electrical equipment, subject to easy access and contact.
Deteriorated conductors and splices within easy reach of the ground or platforms.
b Deteriorated conductors and splices in contact with the exterior metal skin of mobile
homes and trailers.
b Deteriorated conductors in contact with telephone and TV system wiring.
b Service poles that have rotted away at the base and are leaning or lying against mobile
homes, trailers, fences and vegetation.
E> Ungrounded or improperly grounded electrical equipment, mobile homes and trailers.
Undersized equipment grounding conductors.
b Severely overfused, and /or overloaded equipment and conductors.
b Open splices in conductors.
Unsupported mobile home /trailer disconnects, boxes and conductors.
b Covers missing or removed from panel boards, disconnects and boxes.
Notification of these conditions was provided to Mark Kim on March 28, 1995 at the mobile home
parks business office. A copy of the Agency Requested Inspection Report 10336 dated March 28,
1995 was hand delivered to Mr. Kim at that time. A program of repair, replacement or upgrades of
the parks electrical distribution system will be required to begin immediately. Failure to take action
will cause the department to take what ever action is deemed necessary in order to remove the
electrical hazard(s).
An Electrical Work Permit must be purchased should a more detailed inspection of each mobile
home site, trailer site or RV site be requested in order to provide the code violations specific to each
area.
