A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
TUKWILA, WASHINGTON, AFFIRMING AGREEMENT IN PRINCIPLE
TO REVISE THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN MAP TO ELIMINATE AN
OVERLAPPING POTENTIAL ANNEXATION AREA WITH SEATTLE,
AND TO REVISE CERTAIN BOUNDARIES ONCE AN INTERLOCAL
AGREEMENT IS SIGNED WITH SEATTLE AND KING COUNTY.
WHEREAS, King County and the cities of Tukwila and Seattle have successfully completed
the mediation process entered into under the Memorandum of Understanding signed in June
1997, to resolve a disputed potential annexation area, boundary adjustments and the future
improvements to the 14th/ 16th Avenue South Bridge; and
WHEREAS, all three jurisdictions have contributed significant time and effort to the
negotiations; and
WHEREAS, the results reflect a spirit of cooperation, mutual accommodation and joint
contributions to the successful resolution of some of our region's most challenging problems; and
WHEREAS, Tukwila's 1995 Comprehensive Plan recognizes the intent to revise certain
boundaries and to avoid overlap in potential annexation areas; and
WHEREAS, these revisions would represent a significant step toward full implementation of
the Growth Management Act by creating a more workable set of boundaries, financing needed
infrastructure improvements, and by providing more efficient government for the residents of the
region;
NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF TUKWILA,
WASHINGTON, HEREBY RESOLVES AS FOLLOWS:
A. The City of Tukwila agrees in principle to revise its Comprehensive Plan map to
eliminate an overlapping potential annexation area with Seattle and to straighten boundaries as laid
out in the draft Interlocal Agreement with Seattle and King County.
B. The City of Tukwila shall, however, defer adopting Comprehensive Plan revisions (L99-
0085 and L99 -0088) until the Interlocal Agreement with Seattle and King County is finalized and
signed.
