II. BUSINESS AGENDA
A. Interlocal Aureement: Hearinu Examiner Services
Staff is seeking full Council approval to renew an Interlocal agreement with the City of Seattle for hearing
examiner services. The current contract expires in July, and the new interlocal will be valid from July 1, 2012
June 30, 2014.
The Committee last saw this agreement in 2008. In 2010, the agreement was not required to move through the
Council process; however, all interlocal agreements are now required to have Council approval. The agreement
remains the same as the 2(_)1(_) agreement with one exception, which is a $0.05 increase in the reimbursable
mileage rate, reflecting a reimbursement rate of $0.55 per mile (current government rate).
The City of Seattle is by experience, able to offer greater flexibility in accommodating and providing these
services including evening hearings. They conduct land use and forfeiture (police) hearings. Additionally, for
budget efficiency, this contract will be moved from the Mavor's Office to the Department of Communitv
Development since that department uses this service the most. UNANIMOUS APPROVAL. FORWARD TO
JUNE 18 CONSENT AGENDA.
B. Amendment to Interlocal Agreement: King County Conservation Futures Duwamish Hill Preserve
Staff is seeking Council approval of an amendment to the interlocal agreement between Tukwila and the City of
Seattle for Conservation Futures Levy funding in the amount of $250,000 for acquisition of land adjacent to the
Duwarnish Hill Preserve.
hi 2(_)11, the City applied for $500,000, and was recommended for a $250,000 grant from King County
Conservation Futures for acquisition of a parcel of land due west of the Duwarnish Hill Preserve (1.9 acres). The
King County Council has approved funding in the budget, and distribution is now ready. A dollar for dollar City-
match is required, and is currently budgeted in the Capital Improvement Plan, page 46. UNANIMOUS
APPROVAL. FORWARD TO JUNE 18 CONSENT AGENDA.
