FROM: Mike Sweeney, Parks & Rec., Owner's Representative; Foster Golf Projects
(With concurrence Mr. Fletcher & Still, Parks & Recreation Administration)
DATE: August 19, 2003
SUBJECT: Intra-Project Funds Transfer, Modification of Council Authorized Encumbrances
FROM: Foster Clubhouse Pro]ect# 89-BGO9-GOLF 03-02/Contract #AG 03-110
TO: Foster Course Improvement Project #89-BGOg-GOLF 03-03 & Contract #AG03-091
Request: Council authorization to increase Course Improvement Project Contingency by $6528,
with corresponding decrease in Clubhouse Project Contingency.
RECOMMENDATION: Council authorization of an "intra-project" transfer of $6,528.00; modifying
· encumbrance limits of the Course Improvement Project Contingency from $32,422.00 to $38,950.00;
decreasing the Golf Clubhouse Project Contingency from $304,447.00 to $297,919.00.
BACKGROUND
A provision in the clubhouse contractor's contract and scope, provided for his "on-site" transfer of excavated
soils to a location designated by owner -- if within 30 days of his Notice to Proceed (6/30). For the project to
avoid costs in the export of soils, it was intended during the clubhouse project's planning stage that these
"excess" soils would be transferred to the course improvement contractor for use in course shaping and
contouring. Delay in the contract award to the clubhouse contractor (permits, re-bid, rejection of bidder)
caused the course improvement contractor's work to progress too far ahead of the clubhouse contractor, with
result that the course golf course contractor was no longer able to accept the (intended) soils transfer. The
course contractor's work had advanced beyond a cutdate when additional soils could be "worked" within his
work sequences involving contouring, drainage, top dressing, and irrigation. The project was faced with a
potential change order of $48,000 for the export of 3000 yards of soil. An "on-site" solution was found by
depositing these soils to hole #18's waste area. This 3000 yards of soil was transferred, shaped, and
contoured to match design features created in nearby areas of the course improvement project. By the nature
of his qualifications to do so, the golf course contractor was sought to perform the shaping of this golf
feature, at a cost of $6528 including tax. These costs are a direct result of conditions related to the clubhouse
project, not the course improvement project. This work was "work added" beyond the scope of the contract
documents executed by the city with the course improvement contractor, and for which the course
improvement project contingency did not provide. Had it not been for the course improvement contractor's
willingness to perform added work, the clubhouse project would have sustained a sizable change order cost.

MEMORANDUM
Date: August 27, 2003 ~0)ox~ ~,
TO: Tukwila City Council
FROM: Steve Lancaster, Department of Community Development
SUBJECT: ANNUAL COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AMENDMENTS FOR 2003
Background
On August 25, 2003, the Council was briefed on the Planning Commission's
recommendations regarding the three proposed Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Code
amendments that were submitted for consideration during the 2002-2003 annual
amendment process.
I. L02-062 Comprehensive Plan amendment--Office in M1CfFI
L02-063 Zoning Code Amendment-Office in MIC/H
The Council asked staff to provide some additional information regarding the
proposed amendment to allow office in the MIC/H zone. The Council asked for
the following:
1. Are there any examples of existing water dependent industrial uses in the
Duwamish corridor?
· Delta Marine is a water related industry located on the Duwamish River and they
manufacture boats and yachts. It is located at 1608 South 96th Street, Seattle on
the west side of the River. ~Iorgensen Steel located at 8431 East Marginal Way
South, Tukwila uses the River for transportation of some of their materials by
barges.
2. What are the regulatory/environmental issues with the redevelopment of
these properties for water dependent uses?
Any development within 200 feet of the shoreline is subject to shoreline
substantial development permit. At this time the area north of the turning basin is
subject to King County Shoreline Master Program that is administered by the City
of Tukwila. The setbacks for non-water related uses(commercial and industrial)
6300 Southcenter Boulevard, Suite #100 · Tukwlla, Washington 98188 · Phone: 206-43173670 · Fax: 206-431~366~
are 50 feet from the ordinary high water mark or twenty feet from edge of the
floodway, whichever is greater. There are provisions to reduce this setback if the
development provides public access. However water dependent industrial use is
not required to maintain a shoreline setback.
If the redevelopment of any of the parcels includes any work in, over or under
navigable waters of the United States a permit is required from the US Army
Corps of Engineers to ensure that navigation is not adversely affected. Typically
shoreline stabilization methods that have least impact on habitat to properly serve
the water dependent uses are required.
Following is a summary o£ the Planning Commission's Recommendation:
Planning Commission recommended the following:
1. Allow new office developments in the MIC/H zone as Conditional Uses and
subject to the following restrictions:
a) The maximum size of new office developments shall not exceed 100,000
square feet of gross floor area per lot that was legally established prior to
mm/dd/yy (the effective date of the adoption of the ordinance).
b) No new offices shall be allowed on lots that abut the Duwamish River and are
north of the turning basin. The parcels that are ineligible for stand-alone office
uses are shown on the map attached to the ordinance.
2. An existing office development established prior to 12/11/1995 (the effective date
of the adoption of the Comprehensive Plan) may be allowed to exceed the
maximum size limitations and/or convert to a stand-alone office use subject to
obtaining Conditional Use approva!.
Also, attached is the draft ordinance for the public hearing.
II. L02-064 Comprehensive Plan amendment--Revise Sensitive Areas policies
L02-064 Zoning Code amendment--Revise Sensitive Areas policies
Request:
Approve "placeholder" amendment for Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Code to
include "best available science," other issues per State of Washington Growth
Management Act requirements.
Planning Commission recommendation:
Defer consideration until 2003-2004 Growth Management Act update
III. L02-067 Rezone LDR to O (Barghausen/Robb)
L02-068 Comprehensive Plan amendment LDR to O (Barghausen/Robb)
Request:
Approve rezone/Comprehensive Plan change at 6550 and 6542 Southcenter
Boulevard from Low Density Residential (LDR) to Office (O)
Planning Commission recommendation:
Deny request. Applicant may reapply for consideration if access and
encroachment issues are resolved before 12/31/03.
Next steps:
The Committee of the Whole will hold a public hearing on the proposed amendments on
September 2, 2003. After the public hearing, the City Council may:
Adopt an amendment as recommended by the Planning Commission;
Adopt a modified version of an amendment;
Reject the amendment; or
· Ask for additional information prior to making a final decision on the request.

Amend Resolution for Public Works Fee Schedule, Adopt Ordinance for Sewer Rate Increase,
and Repeal Ordinance Nos. 936 and 1776.
Council Admin. Public Works
This City's sewer rate was last increased in 1996 under Ordinance No. 1776 and is no longer
sufficient to operate the sewer enterprise fund. The customer's monthly bill includes the KC
Metro sewer treatment rate of $23.40 and the City's portion of $5.00, which pays for the
system operations, maintenance and improvements. Last year the fund dipped into reserves by
$194,000. A $2.00 increase is needed to stop the use of the ending fund balance and will cover
replacement costs and any contingencies. Ordinance No. 936 set the inspection fees in 1975
and needs to be updated to our current practices and fees.

increasing the City portion from $4.00 to $5.00. The customer's monthly bill includes
Metro's sewer treatment rate of $23.40 and the City portion of $5.00, which pays for the
system operations, maintenance, and improvements. Tukwila sewer rates are no longer
sufficient to operate the enterprise fund and stay out of the red. In 2002, the fund dipped
into the reserves by $194,000. Moreover the cost to operate has increased each year due to
electrical costs, the growth of infrastructure, the aging pipe and pump facilities, and the
additional requirements of maintenance of system grease in the CBD.
Currently, Tukwila has the lowest residential rate in the immediate area and remains one
of the lowest in comparison to all regional agencies in Washington. The following table is
a comparison of rates with local agencies:
Sewer Jurisdiction Single Family (monthly bill)
Tukwila 2;3.40
Vai Vue Sewer District 29.40
29.75
Auburn ...........
Kent 31.27
Renton ..... 36.06 .....
Tukwila ($1.50 increase) ......... 29.90
Tukwila ($2.00 increase) 30.40
RECOMMENDATION
Raise the City's sewer rates by $2.00.
Note: The fees will now be included in the Public Works Fee Schedule by Resolution, which will allow for
them to be more easily updated in the future.

NOTE: The sewer fund operated at a $194,000 deficit in 2002. To gain this amount
of additional revenue and build up the reserve/replacement balance, a minimum of a
$2.00 increase is needed in residential and commercial rates (as shown in the shaded
portion). The reserve fund is actually the fund balance, which for the beginning of
2003 was $1.67 million.
