HomeMy WebLinkAboutRes 1078 - Interlocal Cooperative Agreement - 16th Avenue Bridge (Fire Protection District #1 Annexation)CITY OF TUKWILA
WHEREAS, Tukwila has an annexation pending before the King County
Boundary Review Board referred to as Fire District Number 1, and
WHEREAS, Tukwila recognizes the east line of 16th Avenue South, lying
east of the Duwamish River and up to the south Seattle City Limits, as the logi-
cal north boundary of Fire District No. 1 as shown on Exhibit A (attached), and
WHEREAS, the Fire District Number 1 annexation is adjacent to the 16th
Avenue bridge, and
WHEREAS, the City of Tukwila believes that the majority of the bridge's
use benefits the City of Seattle and /or King County and that the bridge should
thus be in either of their jurisdictions, and
WHEREAS, if the Fire District Number 1 annexation is approved, a small
portion of the traffic using the bridge may be from the City of Tukwila, and
WHEREAS, the 16th Avenue Bridge is identified as a costly capital
facility with regional users and impacts, and
WHEREAS, the Tukwila City Council wishes to participate with King
County and other government agencies in addressing regional issues, and
WHEREAS, negotiations with King County, Seattle and state and federal
agencies are necessary to resolve funding of the 16th Avenue Bridge operation,
maintenance, repair and construction, and
WHEREAS, it is recognized that these negotiations cannot be completed
prior to the proposed November 1988 vote on the Fire District Number 1 annexa-
tion,
NOW, THEREFORE, the Tukwila City Council resolves as follows:
Authorization to Negotiate. The Mayor is hereby authorized to negoti-
ate with King County and other agencies for a fair share cost of the 16th Avenue
Bridge. The total cost must be apportioned fairly among all affected agencies,
including but not limited to the State of Washington, King County, the City of
Seattle, and the City of Tukwila.
Furthermore, because of King County's present status and size as the
regional governmental agency and as their current role as investigator and
liaison for the upgrade and /or replacement of the bridge, they should serve as
the coordinating body and provide lead agency responsibilities.
