1. 2003 Small Drainage Program Bid Award The 2003 project includes five projects and one
alternative. Of six bids, the lowest was from DL, Asahara for $279,519.44. The additive could
not be afforded at this time so is not included. References were somewhat inconclusive, as the
company references(which were good) were for landscaping and irrigation, not drainage work.
The engineer's base bid was $310,000, so the committee recommended project award. Award
small drainage proiect award to DL Asahara at a Reeular Meeting.
2. Infiltration and Inflow 2003 Manhole Repairs In March the City contracted with Pivetta
Brothers for work on three manhole repairs and related work. There was one change order. The
project final cost was.$47,749.35. The work is complete. Recommend contract acceptance and
release of retaina~e to Reeular Meeting consent agenda.
3. Cascade Water Alliance After analyzing the cost of buying water from Seattle in the future
versus what it might cost from Cascade Water Alliance, Public Works recommended proceeding
with Cascade Water. They estimated that their costs would be lower than Seattle's for the next
47 years. It's very difficult to estimate future costs and supply, but staffwas confident CWA
(Cascade) will be ahead in the long mn. The committee said they trusted staff's analysis.
Recommend staying the current course with Cascade.
4. Sewer Utility Rates Tukwila has not raised sewer rates since 1996, and in the past year or
two has 15ad to dip into the reserve account to pay for maintenance and operations (M & O).
Metro's portion of the sewer bill is $23.40, while the city portion of the bill is $5. Tukwila's
sewer charges are lower than other valley cities and districts. Staff recommended raising the
$28.40 rate by $2.00. The Committee was concerned whether even that would cover all the
sewer needs for M & O. We've used up half the reserve in paying maintenance costs. The water
and sewer pipes in the CBD were all installed in the 1960's and will all need replacing in the
next few years. The committee wanted to look at rates if not next year then at least in two more
years. They pointed out the City has merely passed on Metro cost increases in recent years, and
has absorbed some costs. Recommend sewer rate increase to COW.
5. Wet-Floodproofing Variance Though the main building at Starfire has been taken care of
for floodprooding, the concessionaire and restrooms have not. Staff recommended granting them
a variance for being in the floodplain. The committee members agreed that if the insurance was
ok with it, the City could be. Jim assured them a hold harmless motion.would be included, as
well as a requirement for a manual shut offof the sewage system in the event of a flood, loan
asked who would shut it off at 2 .am. Jim said he would work with Starfire to resolve issues like
that. Recommend variance.

Subject: 2003 Small Drainage Program - Bid Award
Project No. 03-DR01
ISSUE
Award the 2003 Small Drainage Program to the low bidder, D. L. Asahara Company, Inc.
BACKGROUND
The Annual Neighborhood Drainage Program budgeted $995,000 for design and construction of two projects in
2003. The two projects are the South 134z Place Overlay and Drainage project, currendy under construction,
and the 2003 Small Drainage Program.
The 2003 Small Drainage Program includes five project sites (base bid) and one alternate site. This project
was advertised on July 10 and 17, 2003. Six bids were received and opened on July 25. The Engineer's base
bid estimate was $326,264.00. All bids were reviewed and four errors were found and corrected. These
errors did not did not affect the ranking of the bidders but did affect the low base bid amount of $279,519.44
(Corrected) from D. L. Asahara Company, Inc.
ANALYSIS
The low bidder, D. L. Asahara Company, Inc., provided references for past work. Their references were
checked and found to be for landscaping projects. The company was contacted and reported that they are new
to public works projects and do not have references for this type of work. Their references for past projects
were therefore inconclusive.
The additive alternate bid was for $56,146.24. This bid was also reviewed and it was determined that the
contractor had added an additional $10,000 over what was expected to the mobilization portion of the bid.
Therefore, inclusion of the additive alternate is not recommended.

Re: 2003 Small Dralnage Program
DL Asahara Co, Inc. reference check
Dear Ryan,
As requested, we have contacted references that were provided by DL Asahara Co.
Inc (Asehara). The following summarizes the feedback we received from each of
the references contacted as .well as supplemental information from Asahara~s
· estimator, Darren Osaka:
On July 28, 2003 I contacted Al' Emtar, City of Federal Way, Washington to discuss
his experience working With Asahare on the 23~/320m Street Improvement project
for the City. Al indicated that Aaahara did good work in all .regards (quality of Work,
timely 'completion);' however, their role on .the project was as the landscape and'
Irrigation subconaultant. All utility work end paving were completed bY the prime,
rather than Asahara.
On July 30~ 2003, I contacted Emie Eugenio of the Tacoma School Dlstri~. Ernie
indicated that Asahara has completed.numerous projects with the school district
over the past 10 years and she has been consistently I~appy with the.quality of work
and cooperative attitude in dealing with field adjustments, On. these projects,
Asahara primarily cor~plet~d landscape and.irrigation construction.
On July 30, 2003, I contacted .Joanr/e Lawson at the City of University Place....
Joanna worked with Asahara numerous times during her 22 year career With the
City of Tacoma Parks.Department and indicated that they were 'the best.contractor
I've ever worked with'. The projects primarily consisted of landscape and irrigation,
but they also worked on streetscape'improvements, ballfield censtruction,.and, some
minor drainage improvements.
As none of the references pertained specifically to the type of work identified in the
small drainage program, I centactad Darren Osaka, estimator for Asahare. Darren
was hired about 2 months 'ago for the sole purpose of expanding the capabl!lties of
Asahara to Include construction of municipal roadway and drainage .improvements.
Darren worked as a foreman for 12 years at his family business, 'Fuji industries, in
the construction la~:ge municipal roadway, drainage, and site improvement projects.

proposed use of funds remains the same as last year - to reduce crime
and improve public safety.
The application process timeline has been greatly reduced this year from

MEMORANDUM
TO: Tukwila City Council Memb~s
FROM: Lieutenant D.J. Baski~..~-~
DATE: August 14,2003
SUBJECT: 2003 Local Law Enforcement Block Grant (LLEBG)
As in years past, the City of Tukwila is once again eligible for a Local Law Enforcement Block
Grant from the United States Department of Justice. The grant amount for FY 2003 is $22,011. The
purpose of these funds is to reduce crime and improve public safety.
On August 4, 2003, the City Council approved a resolution authorizing the Mayor to make formal
application to obtain the LLEBG. Our grant application was submitted on August 8, 2003. The
Bureau of Justice Assistance approved our application on August 1 l, 2003.
As part of the grant process, we are obligated to hold a public hearing regarding the proposed use of
the grant funds. The public hearing offers concerned persons the opportunity to make written and
oral comments regarding their view on how the grant funds should be utilized.
In addition, a grant mandated LLEBG Advisory Board will be convened the week of August 18,
2003. The board will make non-binding recommendations on how they believe the grant funds
should be spent.
Previous years funds have been used to support a contract for domestic violence advocacy. No
decision has been made at this point whether to continue using grant funding for this purpose.
Information from the public hearing and the LLEBG Advisory Board will be presented to the City
Administration to assist in identifying the proper use of FY 2003 funds.

Sponsor's Summary: Resolution #1513 was passed by the City Council on February 18, 2003. Said
resolution extended medical, dental and vision coverage for dependents of City
employees who are called to active duty in the U. S. Military. The resolution provided
coverage "for a period not to exceed one year from the date the employee is called to
active duty." Some City personnel are still on orders to remain on active duty
(beyond the one year period) and thus the need for the proposed resolution
extending the benefits period for an additional 12 months.

Re: Amendment of Resolution 1513
Benefits for dependents of Military Personnel
Date: August 13, 2003
Resolution 1513 was passed by the City Council on February 18, 2003 to provide
extended medical, dental and vision coverage for the dependents of City employees' who
are called for active duty in the United States Military.
The resolution provides that coverage for the dependents is effective "for a period not to
exceed one year from the date the employee is called to active duty." Resolution 1513
does not provide for extended coverage for dependents if our employees' remain on
active duty beyond one year.
Therefore, in recognition and support of our personnel who have received extended
orders to remain on active duty I recommend that Resolution 1513 be amended to provide
continuation of coverage for the dependents.
The resolution would provide for a continuation of medical, dental and vision coverage
not to exceed an additional 12 months. If the extension of active military duty extends
beyond the additional 12 months, a review would be conducted before granting an
extension of continuation of coverage for dependents.
I have prepared a draft resolution for your review and consideration. If approved, I am
requesting the resolution be forwarded to the next regular meeting of the City Council.

Ordinance - final format
Department of CommumtY Development Steve Lancaster, Director
TO: City of Tukwila Cauncilmembers
From: Steve Lancaster
Date: August 13, 2003~''''
Subject: Adoption of proposed ordinance establishing a temporary moratorium on land
divisions and certain land use decisions in the Longacres TOD planning area.
Background
There has been a moratorium on the acceptance of applications for certain land divisions, and
development activities and land uses within the area designated for transit-oriented development
(TOD) around the temporary commuter rail/Amtrak station at Longacres since September, 2002.
The current moratorium, Ordinance No. 2014, will expire August 30, 2003. Staff recommends
renewing the ordinance without modifications. Planning for the TOD area is underway, and there
is still a need for keeping the moratorium in place. A public hearing on the proposed ordinance
was held at the COW meeting on August 11, 2003. Attached is a copy of the proposed ordinance.
Update on the TOD Plan
Since passage of the moratorium:
· A series of workshops and stakeholder meetings have been initiated. The consultant team,
based on workshop results, is preparing a future land use scenarios for the TOD and TUC
· This plan will be folded into the overall Tukwila Urban Center (TUC) plan. The TUC plan
and TOD subarea plan are anticipated to be completed and ready for the adoption process
early 2004.
Provisions of the Ordinance
There are no substantive differences between the proposed ordinance and the existing one.
Within the TOD planning area, the proposed ordinance:
· Prohibits the filing of all permits and approvals related to:
land divisions
such uses or activities as manufacturing, industrial & auto-oriented businesses.
· Exempts the filing of and approvals related to:
The expansion of existing businesses on existing lots.
6300 Southcenter Boulevard, Suite #100 · Tukwila, Washington 98188 · Phone: 206-431-3670 * Fax: 206-431-3665
Sign permits and building permits for tenant improvements.
· Allows the filing of approvals related to:
All other uses currently allowed under TUC zoning which support and implement the
vision for the area, including those that are easily redevelopable such as auto sales
lots, contractor or storage yards, or commercial parking.
Summary of Public Hearing Comments
One person gave public comment at the hearing held on August 11, 2003, speaking against
extending the moratorium. The speaker questioned whether a TOD project would be feasible,
considering the significant cost of relocating the utilities in the area.
No written comments were received.
Proposed Next Steps
At the next regular meeting on August 18, 2003, Council has the following options:
a. Take no action. Current Ordinance No. 2014, establishing a moratorium on development in
the TOD, will expire on August 30, 2003. Land divisions, development activities and land
uses will be allowed under the City's zoning. Planning and implementation of a TOD and
other Ixansportation improvements may be more difficult.
b. Adopt the proposed ordinance, essentially extending the current moratorium for six months.
Council would then revisit the issue in six months (February 2004).
Staff Recommendations
There is still a need for keeping the existing ordinance in place until a land use/transportation
framework is adopted. Staff recommends renewing the ordinance without modifications.

AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF TUKWILA,
WASHINGTON, RENEWING A SIX -MONTH MORATORIUM ON
ACCEPTANCE OF APPLICATIONS FOR CERTAIN LAND DIVISIONS,
AND DEVELOPMENT ACTIVITIES AND LAND USES WITHIN THE
AREA DESIGNATED FOR TRANSIT- ORIENTED DEVELOPMENT
AROUND THE TEMPORARY COMMUTER RAII/AMTRAK STATION AT
THE LONGACRES SITE; PROVIDING FOR SEVERABILITY;
DECLARING AN EMERGENCY; AND ESTABLISHING AN EFFECTIVE
DATE.
WHEREAS, the City of Tukwila issued an Unclassified Use Permit in 1999
allowing Sound Transit to construct a temporary station for Sounder commuter rail and
Amtrak service at the Longacres site, adjacent to the Burlington Northern Railroad; and
WHEREAS, Sounder's Unclassified Use Permit for the temporary station expires in
February 2004, and either the station must be built or permit renewed prior to this date;
and
WHEREAS, the City recognized the unique opportunity to promote a more
compact mixed -use, pedestrian supportive pattern of development that makes
effective use of its proximity and accessibility to the rail station, and includes a mix of
retail, service, office and residential uses; and
WHEREAS, a more intensive pattern of transit-oriented development (TOD)
would assist the City with the redevelopment of the Tukwila Urban Center, one of
thirteen designated urban centers within King County, and provide workers with
commercial, public and recreational services close to where they live or work; and
WHEREAS, a more intensive pattern of TOD would benefit the region by assisting
in achieving Growth Management Act requirements and increasing local and regional
transit ridership; and
WHEREAS, in August 2001, the City held a workshop, inviting other key
stakeholders to explore the possibilities for a TOD in the Longacres area; and
WHEREAS, the workshop resulted in strong support for the project and a "vision"
for land use and transportation in the Longacres TOD area; and
WHEREAS, to implement this vision, the City applied for and was awarded a $1.5
million grant by the Federal Highways Administration to prepare a master plan for the
Longacres area, identifying land use, urban design and transportation /circulation
objectives, as well as to prepare implementing ordinances and design guidelines,
complete environmental review of the plan and designate it as a planned action, and
integrate the design of the permanent commuter rail/Amtrak station; and
WHEREAS, while the City anticipates the TOD master plan project to be
completed by the end of 2003, some issues need to be addressed immediately in order
for the TOD project to be successful; and
TOD Moratorium Renewal 11114/03 1
WHEREAS, the "Tukwila Urban Center" zoning district allows for a variety of
high- intensity regional uses in the TOD planning area, including light industry and
warehousing, some of which may not be of appropriate type, density or character to
support the intent of a TOD; and
WHEREAS, the City has already received a proposal for development within the
TOD planning area that would have been inconsistent with the stated vision for the
TOD and threaten the successful implementation of the TOD master plan; and
WHEREAS, the Longacres site is considered one of the region's key opportunities
for TOD, primarily due to the large amount of vacant and redevelopable land
surrounding the station; and
WHEREAS, any significant amount of new development occurring prior to the
establishment of a desired pattern of uses in the TOD master plan could jeopardize the
City's ability to implement the TOD plan; and
WHEREAS, the City's Municipal Code allows for the division of land and
adjustment of boundary lines that, if allowed to occur in the TOD planning area, would
make future land assemblage for a TOD project difficult and costly, and threaten the
successful implementation of the TOD master plan; and
WHEREAS, within the TOD planning area, the City desires to take immediate
steps to preserve the land available for development or redevelopment, and restrict
land uses that do not implement the vision for the area until the master plan and
environmental review for the TOD at the Longacres site are completed, certain
implementing zoning regulations are adopted by the City, and other related regional
transportation infrastructure issues are decided; and
WHEREAS, the City also desires to ensure public input on these issues; and
WHEREAS, the City desires to preserve the status quo for the protection of the
health, safety and welfare of City residents, as it relates to development in Tukwila,
until these matters are more fully considered and, therefore, has determined that an
emergency exists; and
WHEREAS, on September 16, 2002, the City adopted Ordinance No. 1996,
establishing a six -month moratorium on acceptance of applications for certain land
divisions, and development activities and land uses within the area designated for
transit oriented development (TOD) around the temporary commuter rail /Amtrak
station at the Longacres site; and
WHEREAS, Ordinance No. 1996 expired on March 16, 2003, and the TOD
planning process was not yet completed; and
WHEREAS, a public hearing on this proposed ordinance was held on February 24,
2003 and Council adopted Ordinance No. 2014 on March 3, 2003; and
WHEREAS, Ordinance No. 2014 will expire on August 30, 2003, and the TOD
planning process is not yet completed; and
WHEREAS, a public hearing on this proposed ordinance was held on August 11,
2003;

The City participates in the National Flood Insurance Program and this requires that all new
development within flood hazard areas meets federal standards. Wet floodproofing is allowed
in certain situations and lets floodwater inundate the structure. Resolution No. 1526 approved
wet floodproofing for the Athletic Center on 6/23/03. Starfire also proposes to wet floodproof
the maintenance /concession facility by allowing floodwaters to enter the structure and elevate
all of its components at least one foot above the base flood elevation. The remainder of the
structure would be allowed to flood and would be constructed with materials that withstand
flood damage. Since this is not the standard established by FEMA or included in our City
Ordinance, a variance must be issued.

TUKWILA MUNICIPAL CODE CHAPTER 16.52 AND ALLOWING FOR THE WET
FLOODPROOFING OF THE STARFIRE MAINTENANCE/ CONCESSION FACILITY.
WHEREAS, the City of Tukwila has entered into an agreement with Starfire Sports to develop
and operate park, athletic, recreation and associated facilities at the Fort Dent Park; and
WHEREAS, portions of Fort Dent Park are within the Green River floodplain; and
WHEREAS, the City of Tukwila participates in the National Flood Insurance Program and this
program requires the City to adopt floodplain management standards and a floodplain construction
permit process; and
WHEREAS, since the proposed Maintenance /Concession Facility does not meet the federal
standards for floodplain construction in accordance with Chapter 16.52 of the Tukwila Municipal
Code, dry floodproofing methods must be used; and
WHEREAS, Starfire Sports has requested a variance that would allow for wet floodproofing of
the Maintenance /Concession Facility, an acceptable alternative under limited situations; and
WHEREAS, The City of Tukwila has adopted the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Flood
Proofing Regulations, the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) Floodproofing
Standards, and the Federal Insurance Administration (FIA) Regulations which allow the City to
grant wet floodproofing variances to those standards and requirements if certain criteria are met as
found in FIA Section 1910.6(a) of FIA Regulations; and
WHEREAS, the proposed Starfire construction meets all of the FEMA wet floodproofing
variance criteria, to wit: wet-floodproofing will not alter the actuarial rating of the
Maintenance /Concession Facility for flood insurance purposes, will not subvert the goals of flood
plain management, the Maintenance /Concession Facility will have all of its components subject to
flood damage at least one foot above the base flood elevation, and the federal standard (dry-
floodproofing) would cause an exceptional financial hardship;
NOW THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF TUKWILA, WASHINGTON,
DO HEREBY RESOLVE AS FOLLOWS:
Section 1. The above Whereas recitals are herein adopted as findings of fact.
Section 2. The Public Works Department is hereby authorized to grant a flood zone permit
