WHEREAS, on June 20, 2012, the City of Tukwila held an informational open
house as an opportunity for the public to obtain information about the proposed
annexation; and
WHEREAS, on June 25, 2012, the City Council of the City of Tukwila held a public
hearing following publication of notice thereof as provided in RCW 35A.14.130; and
WHEREAS, the Washington State Growth Management Act and King County
Countywide Planning Policies anticipate all unincorporated areas within a City's urban
growth area will eventually be annexed; and
WHEREAS, in 1995 Tukwila adopted Ordinance No. 1757, which adopted a
Comprehensive Land Use Plan and Map for the City of Tukwila that identified
approximately 166 acres within the unincorporated North Highline area as a potential
annexation area (PAA) for the City; and
WHEREAS, the City of Seattle has designated a PAA that includes all of the
unincorporated North Highline area, a portion of which overlaps with Tukwila's PAA;
and
WHEREAS, King County Countywide Planning Policy LU -32 establishes a process
for resolving PAA overlaps, and beginning on April 6, 2011, Tukwila, Seattle and King
County participated in the required mediation to resolve the overlap dispute. There was
no resolution of the overlap issue; therefore the City is able to pursue annexation under
state law, having met the procedural prerequisite of mediation; and
WHEREAS, the City Council has determined the annexation to be consistent with
the Growth Management Act, including RCW 36.70A.110(1);
NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF TUKWILA,
WASHINGTON, HEREBY RESOLVES AS FOLLOWS:
