Mavor's Office, City Council , I) ~lA) EVle Boykan, Human ServIces FROM RE Change in Interlocal Agreement re CDBG funds The combinatIOn of declinmg federal funds and mcreasmg federal reqUirements has raised administrativG costs for the Commumty Development Block Grant program. The need to save adminIstrative dollars and subsequently return more money to the commumty has resulted in a new mterlocal cooperatIve agreement that streamlmes and simplIfies the Kmg County CDBG program. IntelJurisdictIOnal staff met for many hours to recommend a process that keeps the same proportIOn of federal funds available to South Kmg County, while simphfymg the administratIve overhead. In short, TukwIla, as well as other South Kmg County citles that are part of the ConsortIUm, wIll not receive a "pass-through" allocation of itS own, but may apply, like other non-profit agencIes, to a South Kmg County sub-regional pot. The atta~hed interlocal agreement highlights how thIS will work. Features include, a setaside of 5% of fund for housmg stability (homeless preventiOn) and 25% of funds for housmg repair. Tub-vila resIdents wIll still have access to these resources for home repmr. Any Tukwila identified proJects, such as Mmor Home Repair, may be requested by applIcation to the sub-regIOnal pot. To ensure that all partIcIpating Junsdictlons benefit fairly, an advisory board of mtelJurisdictIOnal members will be developed. Each city wlii have a VOice in a sub-regional advisory group as to how CDBG funds should be spent m that subregiOn. The Joint Recommendations Comnuttee (IRC), which makes recommendations for expenditures to the County Executlve and County CouncIl will be charged with ensunng geographIc fairness m distnbutiOn of funds The South Kmg County sub-reglOnal advIsory group wIll make recommendatIOns to the IRC Overall, this system will treat Consortium cities fairly and while cities may not receive funds for mfrastructure or other capItal projects every year, the checks and balances will likely assure that cities will be able to take turns receiving fundmg for their proJects. In order to continue participatmg m the CDBG consortiUm the Council must authorize the Mayor's signature for the new agreement, which will cover 2006-2008. I am available to answer questions. mterlocal agreement.doc . - -------. May 26, 2005 The Honorable Larry Phi:llips, Chair MetropolItan-King County Council Room 1200 COURTHOUSE Dear Councilmember PhIllips: I am pleased to transmit for King County Council consideration and approval an ordmance authonzing the King County Executive to sign a new interlocal cooperation agreement regarding the federally-funded Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) program. Kmg County receives an annual CDBG entitlement grant of $5 to $7 million per year, along with related federal housing and community development funds of about $4 million per year, from the US Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). Federal regulatlOns allow suburban cities which do not qualIfy for their own CDBG entitlement funds to participate with the county m an urban county consortium. This increases the amount of federal funds flowing into our region, and allows the participating cities access to these federal funds in an efficient manner. In order for the cities to participate, HUD first requires them to enter into renewable three-year cooperation agreements with the county. Most suburban cities have entered into such cooperation agreements with King County in the past, many of which have participated since 1976, when King County first began receiving CDBG funds. ThIS new CDBG interlocal cooperation agreement has been recommended by the inter- jurisdictional Joint Recommendations Committee (JRC) that guides King County's urban county consortlUm. The IRC is chaIred by Mayor Ava Frisinger ofIssaquah. The new CDBG mterlocal cooperation agreement forges new working relationshIps between the county and the participating suburban cities regarding the CDBG program. Specifically, the cities and the county will be agreemg to pool the CDBG Consortium's funds and allocate them on the basIs of two sub-regions (the north/east sub-region, and the south sub-regIOn) rather than to continue the old system of allocating the dwmdling amount of funds on a JunsdIction by junsdIctlOn basIs. This is a remarkable pioneering and collaborative step for all our jurisdictions, and a sIgmficant change from the past. Under the past interlocal agreement, the CDBG funds were considered more like local funds, where the larger suburban cities in the Consortium had local discretion ----~.._- The Honorable Larry PhillipS May 26, 2005 Page 2 over a specific share of the funds to serve their own resIdents, and the county had dIscretlOn over another share of the funds to serve residents of umncorporated communities and the smaller suburban cItIes For junsdictlOns to agree to come together and replace that system with sub- reglOnal pools has taken vision, courage, and trust: . VisIOn-to see beyond jurisdictlOnallines at what could be accomplished by workmg together; . Courage-to giv.e up a small annual share that is certain for the opportunity to apply for a more significant amount; and . Trust-to have confidence that the pooled funds will be allocated fairly and that the residents of all jurisdictions will be served. , ThIS new system also will save on administrative costs, and help ensure that as many of the CDBG dollars as possible are spent on projects out in the community rather than on admllllstration. This is important because annual CDBG entitlement funds have not kept up with mflatlOn over the years. It is doubly important in the current federal budget climate where CDBG and other housmg and community development programs face additional cuts in Washington, DC. The new sub-regional pools will require less in admimstrative costs by the cities and the county than required by the olq pass-through system. We estimate a savings of over $320,000 in administrative costs per year. The need to reduce administrative costs was what first prompted the JRC to re-examme the Consortium's structure. The JRC recognized that the old structure added both complexity and duplication to a federal program that was shnnking and already very complex to administer. It concluded the status quo could not be sustained. In 2004, the JRC initiated the re-examination of the Consortium structure by appomting a small inter-jurisdictional staff group to explore alternatives that would reduce administrative costs. This staff group had representatives from Shorelme, Redmond, Burien, and SeaTac, as well as King County. The staff group began their task by meetmg with other CDBG urban counties, and learned how those counties and the cities within them shared the funds. They heard from the Snohomish County, Pierce County, and Clark County CDBG programs, and also learned about CDBG programs in other states, including 'Washington County, OR; Shelby County, TN; and Anoka County, MN. At the same time, Mayor Fnsinger wrote to the Suburban Cities AssocIation to inform them of the JRe's initiative, and to let them know that changes might be commg for the CDBG Consortium. The staff group utIlized some of the ideas learned from the other counties, and developed several alternatIve models for the Kmg County Consortium, WhICh they presented to the JRe. These alternatIve models ranged from a Consortmm-wlde pool of funds, to two sub-regIOnal pools, to a variatlOn on the existing pass-through system. Another slightly different vanation on the --_.-~-- The Honorable Larry PhIlhps May 26, 2005 Page 3 eXIsting pass-through system was considered agam later m the process; this vanatlOn on the eXIsting system was eventually dIsmissed for not provIdmg enough admmIstratIve savmgs. After the imtial presentatlOn to the JRC, the staff group made presentatlOns to four mam stakeholder groups to solicit feedback. These four stakeholder groups were non-profit SOCIal servIce providers, non-profit housmg providers, CDBG coordinators from Consortium citles, and Suburban CIty Managers and Admin\strators. There was little or no support for the model of a Consortium-wide pool of funds at any of the four meetings. The different areas of the Consortium are too varied and the decislOn-making seemed too far removed from the local level. There was more support for the sub-reglOnal model However, there was also significant and understandable concern about movmg away from the old pass-through system where funds were guaranteed. Some of the twelve cIties whIch have been receivmg a pass-through feared-and may still fear-that theIr residents would not benefit to the same extent if the cItles had to compete m a sub-regional pool. They understand that they will be giving up the certainty ofrecelVing a small share of the funds each year, but that m return they will be gaming the opportunity to receive a much larger amount every few years. They also understand that this may allow them to receive enough funding to complete an entire proj ect at once, rather than havmg to phase it over several years. Still, the idea of gIving up that certainty and pooling these funds, which some cIties have come to view as local funds, was difficult for some cities to accept. 0? These concerns were very understandable, and caused long discussions at subsequent JRC meetings. In response to those concerns, the JRC modified the initial sub-reglOnal model to place greater emphasis on participation of all jurisdictions in the project selection process. They stipulated the formation of sub-regional advisory groups where all participating JunsdIctions have a seat at the table to advise the JRC on the selection of CDBG projects each year. In addItion, the JRC stipulated that the interlocal cooperation agreement would specifically charge them with the responsibility of ensuring that residents of all geographic areas benefit faIrly from the Consortium's CDBG-funded projects and programs. In sum, I believe that the inter-jurisdictional JRC is to be commended. They were faced with a very difficult situation, and they have made the best possible recommendation. The sub-regional Consortium structure proposed by the JRC in this interlocal cooperation agreement wIll save administration costs, allow more of the CDBG dollars to be made available for commumty projects, and ensure that every partIcipatmg CIty has a seat at the table during the project selectlOn process. Please be aware that there is a HUD deadlme of August 5 for cities to sIgn and return the mterlocal agreements. Any CIty that does not sIgn by that tIme wtll be excluded from the King County CDBG Consortium, and these cities are too small to qual1fy for their own CDBG ===-.=: =----=--=-=-=- The Honorable Larry PhIllips May 26, 2005 Page 4 entItlements from HUD. Therefore, I ask that you consider this agreement promptly, to give the vanous city councils adequate tIme for their review and consideration.

Shoreline lVlaster Plan wlap Because the TVS annexation area includes shorelme, the City wIll need to amend Its Shorelme Management Plan to mclude a use desIgnatIOn for the shorelme. The applIcant prefers It be designated "Urban", and DCD staffagreed that was appropnate. DennIs asked for a table showing what is allowed in King County's Rural DIStrict as well as m TukwIla's Urban shoreline dIstriCt. A publ1c meetmg wIll be held June 20, and the CouncIl has options to pass the amendment request on to the Plannmg CommissIOn, defer consIderatron, or reject the request. Recommend amendment to Regular lVleeting for Council approval. "I:; Changes in {nterIoe'" Agreement for CDBG Fnnding Due to dechrnng federal funds and ~creasing admmlstrative costs at the County level, a new interlocal agreement between the pass- through and other cIties has been drafted. This new agreement makes funding allocations aVailable at the sub-regional level; north and east and south. South Kmg County WIll receive the same proportion of funding that would have been available with the mdIvIdual pass-through system. Tukwila, will not receive a pass-through allocatron III 2006. Funds wIll still be available for housing repmr and homelessness prevention, as these funds will come offthe top of the regional allocatIOn. TukwIla wIll need to compete with other applications from cities and human service providers. This applies to projects such as mmor home repair, nutntion education and any capital project that is internal to the CIty UtilIty connection assistance will still be available through the King County Housing Repair program. Cities and agencies will submit their projects to the County. They will then be reviewed by sub- regional city representatives who will meet to recommend how to allocate funds m the sub- region. Those recommendations will go to the Joint Recommendations Committee, composed of representatives from suburban cities, King County, City of Seattle (for Home and RHAP funds only) and cities considered Jomt Agreement citIes. Finally, JRC recommendations will go to the King County Executive and the County Council. Dave asked about the process and Evie said that some of It is still being worked out. It IS antIcipated that everyone may not get their capital requests funded ImmedIately, but in subsequent years will be in a better position if they apply. The Committee accepted EVIe's recommendation for the new process Recommend interlocal agreement to CO\V. 3. Torn Foster ReQuest Tom Foster is a developer who owns 14 single-family lots on 51st on Ryan Hill. He said hIS options are to build fourteen 20-foot wide homes, but he hoped to be able to use the alternative housing that had been dIscussed previously III CommIttee. He has bUIlt several large homes recently, and there is a ready market for those homes. He would like to consolIdate lots to be able to do something SImIlar on rus consolIdated lots. The Committee talked about the need for cottage housmg m Tukwila for empty nesters and those moving into a smaller home. In the end the Committee agreed they would proceed when DCD comes back to the Committee wIth more informatIOn on alternative housing. Information.

Mullet Mayor Q tea r Mt. Department of f' Community Development Steve Lancaster, Director 1908 To: Committee of the Whole From: Steve Lancaster, Director Date June 22, 2004 Subject: Housing Options Program Background: The market for single family homes in Tukwila is strong. In fact, less than ideal sites are bemg developed and less than perfect designs are being sold. See Attachment 1 Some of these homes are being developed because the public has paid for the design and installation of needed sewer and water infrastructure. As the staff review plans and the community reviews the new development, thoughts on how to improve the overall quality of development have been raised. One way to proceed with alternative residential development would be through a "Housing Options Program" At their 15 March and 26 May 2005 meetmgs, the Commumty Affairs and Parks Committee reviewed a concept and outline for a Housing Options Program. The program would allow a limited number of projects in appropnate locations that would contain atypical' types of new housing in residential districts, subject to design review and any necessary platting, on a demonstration basis. The following steps would be followed and are outlined in Attachment D: 1. Application would be made to the Department of Community Development Only one application for each of the five residential neighborhoods would be allowed 2. A neighboring property owner meeting, appropnately advertised, would be held 3. The DCD directed would decide if the proposed project met the criteria for acceptability into the "program." 4. The applicant would be notified that they have a specific period to apply for a Type 5 application subdivision and design review. 5. The City Council would hold a heanng and approve, deny or condition the application. 'Housing being built within the last four years averaged approximately 2, 900 square feet m floor area. Housing on substandard (small lots) has also been criticized as bemg unattractive and harming the Comprehensive Plan goals of neighborhood livability and quality Page 1 of 4 Attachment A 6300 Southcenter Boulevard, Suite #100 Tukwila, Washington 98188 Phone: 206 431 -3670 Fax: 206 431 -3665 6 The applIcant would have a specIfied tIme frame to complete any reqUIred publIc improvements and submIt the final plat applIcatIOn. 7. An evaluation would follow any development to detennine if changes should be consIdered m City standards. "Vhat types of housing could be considered? There are a number of dIfferent types of housing being bUIlt around the regIOn that may be considered compatible within the CIty'S existing resIdential neighborhoods. Cottage and co-housmg developments cluster small homes around a common area, wIth parking off to the sIde and usually with a common buildmg space to share for partIes or communal gatherings. Cottage examples from the Cottage Company Small houses/small lot development from Orenco Station located in Portland area Page 2 of 4 Attachment A ~ Narrow Lot Houses in Madison Park \Vhy would a property owner be interested in pursuing a development other than the single family house/plat? There are several types of sItuatIOns that exist. There are developers who only do the nontraditional type of product that is currently not allowed in the City and there are developers who own property where the existing codes make single famIly house constructIOn dIfficult or problematic from a design perspective. For example, where eXlstmg plats have 25 foot wide lots or where HDR property requires minimum 9.600 square foot lots for a single family home. What type off flexibility should there be on the potential projects? There were 254 new detached smgle famIly homes bUIlt in TukwIla over the last four years and the average size was 2,864 square feet. Below are typical sizes for the products described: · Cottages = 1,200 square foot maX11llutn gross floor area · Compact S111gle-Family = 1,500 square foot maX11llutn gross floor area · Duplexes or Tnplexes = 1,500 square foot maXlmutn gross floor area per umt A covenant restrlct111g any 111creases 111 urut SlZe after 1111hal construchon could be recorded against the property Attachment 1 illustrates the typical development that could occur on eXlSt111g narrow lots. Flexibility 111 setbacks as well as the authonty to reVIew the sltmg of the homes and the ardutectural details may encourage a more pleas111g pubhc streetscape. Page 3 of4 Attachment A If the homes are limited in total size, how many homes could be built in a project? GIVen the typIcal house size bemg bUIlt m Tukwila, the followmg equivalencies seem reasonable. · Cottages = 2 per each s111gle-family umt that could be built on the property · Compact SF = 1.5 per each s111gle-family umt that could be built on the property · Duplexes and Tnplexes = overall development not to exceed 1.5 t::lmes the number of s111gle-family umts that could be built on the property · Roundmg up to the next whole number of eqmvalent umts IS allowed when the converSlOn from typical s111gle-family umts to eqmvalent umts results 111 a fraction of 0.5 or above Summary To implement the recommendatIOn, the Council would adopt an ordinance to establIsh the program. Below are some ofthe key questIOns regardmg the potential program: · Should project size be lImited? · Is the parking requirement adequate? · How will deCISIOns be made/what process would be followed? · When and how will the neighbors know about applIcatIOns? · How will the applIcations be judged, i.e. What cntena will be used? Options 1. No Action This option makes no changes and allows no alternatives. 2. Forward Attachment D to the Planning ComrmssIOn for hearing and recommendation following City Council discussion and any modification. There are many components to the program - Attachment D - that the CouncIl may wIsh to reVIew and modify. 3. Identify single family development Issues that should be reviewed and regulated; such as narrow lot development, or house orientatIOn on small lot short plats. Recommendation Option 2. Forward the Program Outline - Attachment D- with any modIfications to the Planning Commission for a hearing.

Because cIties are .. ... required by State law to -accept manufactured homes begmning July 1 sl this year, CIty standards need to be established.. Nora said manufactured homes come in a range of qualIty, from very basic trailer types to homes hard to distinguish from stick-built homes. Staff had wntten changes to the single family dwellmg code that manufactured homes would need to follow, and the recommendatlOns would lead to a higher qualIty manufactured home. The committee largely followed the staff recommendatIOns. Committee members had some questions about appropriate requirements for condo conversions and which reqUIrements might be appropnate, and on whether a dog kellilel was -appropriate in the urban center. Refer issues to Planning: Commission. I Ii -/ _fV It /\ l\ 5. Single Familv Neighborhood Housine: Options Moira said most developments-for single family homes put in a standard home with a garage in front. The ComprehensIve Plan encourages a range of housing types. Some options include cottage housing, where smail homes are clustered around a common green, with parking in the back or on the sIdes, and porches facing one another. There is an opportunity for this type of housing in a demonstration project m the city, though an ordmance would need to be passed to allow that. The conllmttee supported cottage housing on a demonstration project basis. Return to Committee with specific recommendations for allowing demonstration projects. 6. Aerial survey DCD has budgeted an aerial survey of the entire CIty and is eager to proceed with that survey before the trees leaf out any more than they already have. The photos will be used to update the city GIS (geographic infolTIlation system). Funding comes from both the DCD and Public \Vorks budgets. Recommend contract for aerial photography to Regular l'rleeting. Minutes by L. Lauterbach rJ - Committee chmr approval 1!1(~!lIUBNJ Z> Community and Parks Committee May 24,2005 Present: Joe Duffie, Chair; Joan Hernandez, Dennis Robertson Steve Lancaster, Rhonda Berry, Evie Boykan, Derek Speck, Nora Gierloff, Lucy Lauterbach; Eda and Dario Mastandreas, JIm Hankin-Extra Car; Steve Detweiler, Matt Martel 1. Zoning: Code Amendment The Mastandreas family has allowed their property to be used by Extra Car to park cars of people who leave their car for longer periods. The property is zoned Regional Commercial (RC), which does not allow airport parking unless it is in a structure with ground floor retail, or if it's 175 feet behind a buildmg. When the couple came to the City in April, the Committee had directed DCD write a letter detailing the options the couple could take to become legal. The letter was written, and a date of June 15 was set as the date by which the issue must be resolved before code enforcement takes steps to close the lot. Mr. Mastandreas then wrote the City asking the Council to amend the RC zoning designation to allow him to use his property for Commercial Parking. Another option would be to apply for a zoning change to a zone such as Light Industrial that would allow the parking lot. - ~--, Dario Matandreas said they have lived in the area for a long time, and the property was zoned Business and Commercial. Steve noted it changed to RC in 1995. Mr. Hankin, Extra Car's attorney, suggested that a conditional use or variance be allowed, as the parking does not affect anyone negatively. Another suggestion was to enlarge the park and ride defimtion to include airport parking, and designate it a park and ride lo~. Dennis said the City had spent considerable effort and expense to upgrade Tukwila International Boulevard in an effort to improve the highway. He said he did not support changing the zoning code, and would prefer the "take no action" option, which would end their appeal. Joan said it would be hard to justify Light Industrial zoning in this location. She appreciated the fact that the Mastandreas property was well cared for, but agreed that the Council could not allow airport parking in the RC zone without the current restrictions. She wanted the couple to know what other options they had. Steve L said there is a large range of businesses allowed in RC, but the couple said they didn't want to build a building for a business. Joe said rules are made to be followed, and the Mastandreas property has rules also that must be followed. In the end, Joe and Joan favored the option of sending the issue to the COW wIthout a committee recommendation. No committee recommendation~ send to CO\V. * 2. Sing:le Familv Neig:hborhood Housing: Options The Committee had agreed to look at different concepts for housing in low density areas of the City. There are currently no options other than a standard house. Cottage-type housing, compact (i.e. small) houses, and duplexes or triplexes are all options not currently allowed in Tukwila. Staff proposed a demonstration project wIth criteria that would allow the city to observe how one of these developments could work. Dennis expressed concern that manufactured houses could make up a cottage hou?ing development. Though the desIgn standards might not disallow that, staff thought it not feasible. !}IM cJf.;2 Ik#A1OJ7 ~ " Community and Parks Committee May 24, 2005 Page 2 The land costs are high enough that the developer wants to get a good return on investment, which he/she cannot do with trailers. Dennis also raised the issue of neighborhoods being very wary of changes in density, types of housing, and rental housing. Joan initially thought allowing up to 36 cottage homes in a development was too many, but after hearing that developers sometimes require 36 homes to make a development profitable enough to build, she changed her mind and thought 36 homes could be allowed. The size and location of a development would be important. D~nnis worried about a large development gomg into a neighborhood when it \vould be surrounded by traditional housing. The current site for a very draft proposal for non-traditional housmg is below the hospital and adjacent to the cemetery on one side and the large back yard of the veterinary office on Mihtary. Matt said the design review process would help ensure the buildings in a demonstration site were attractive. Dennis' comments concerning changing the character of a neighborhood could be calmed by a demonstration that showed different methods of housing in an area like the proposed demonstration site. To do a project like this would take a large amount ofland, and those large parcels are generally not in the middle of densely populated areas. Joan said she supported cottage housing that was not cookie cutter in appearance, but had modulation and pitched roofs instead. Steve mentioned that often this new type of housing is not cheap, and may not be as easily rented as something less expensive. The Committee members had some comments about the draft demonstration housing outline. Joe said he would like pictures of how some ofthese areas could look. Refer issue to COW. , 3. Proposed Code Amendments The set of zoning code amendments that addressed changes required by state law regarding manufactured housmg as well as some other changes was sent from the Committee to the Planning Commission. The Commission held a hearing and endorsed the Committee's recommendation on all the items except the manufactured housing section. The Commission did not want to require all new single- family houses to have an attached garage, have a front door that faced the street, or have a minimum roof pitch of5:12. The Committee agreed to reinstate their original design standards for a 5:12 pitched roof, a front door that faces the front yard, and they wanted to allow detache garages for alley-accessed lots. The issue of requiring attached garages on manufactured homes can still be kept if detached garages can be dealt with separately. Dennis asked that the Planning Commission minutes be included in the Council packet. Recommend code amendments to COW. 4. Comp Plan Amendment Update Two proposed changes to the comprehensive plan were submitted for 2005. The first in the Tukwila Public Works Transportation Element of the comp plan. The other was a request from a resident on Orill1a Road who wanted a zoning designation though he is outside the Potential Annexation Area. Steve has asked that person to wait until annexation for his request, which the applIcant has agreed to. The Transportation Plan is scheduled for the end ofthis year.

BACKGROUND: The Homeland Security Presidential Directive (HSPD) - 5, Management of Domestic Incidents, dated September 8, 2004, requires the City of Tukwila to officially adopt NIMS in order to be eligible for Homeland Security Grants. NIMS establishes standardized incident management processes, protocols, and procedures that all responders - Federal, state, tribal, and local - will use to coordinate and conduct response actions. With responders using the same standardized procedures, they will all share a common focus, and will be able to place full emphasis on incident management when a homeland security incident occurs - whether terrorism or natural disaster. NIMS establishes the Incident Command System (ICS) as a standard incident management organization with five functional areas - command, operations, planning, logistics, and finance/administration - for management of all major incidents. To ensure further coordination, and during incidents involving multiple jurisdictions or agencies, the principle of unified command has been universally incorporated into NIMS. The minimum NIMS compliance activities that the City is to achieve are: . Formally recognize NIMS and adopt NIMS principles and policies. . Complete NIMS Awareness Courses - First responders (Fire, Police, and PW) will complete a more detailed training program. . Establish a baseline by determining which NIMS requirements Tukwila already meets - Tukwila's Emergency Operation Plan is based upon ICS. . Establish a timeframe and develop a strategy for full NIMS implementation. Deadline is October 1,2006. RECOMMENDED ACTION: Formally adopt NIMS through the attached resolution. [IDOOill~TI A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF TUKWILA, WASHINGTON, ADOPTING THE NATIONAL INCIDENT MANAGEMENT SYSTEM (NIMS) AS ITS STANDARD INCIDENT MANAGEMENT PROCESS; PROVIDING FOR RATIFICATION; AND ESTABLISHING AN EFFECTIVE DATE. WHEREAS, the City of Tukwila currently uses the Incident Command System as its standard incident management organization, as referenced and required in Homeland Security Presidential Directive (HSPD) - 5, Management of Domestic Incidents; and WHEREAS, the Department of Homeland Security has adopted the National Incident Management System (NIMS), and WHEREAS, the Department of Homeland Security is requiring Federal, State, local and tribal entities to adopt NlJ:vIS, and WHEREAS, it is necessary and desirable that all Federal, State, local and tribal homeland emergency agencies and personnel coordinate their efforts to effectively and efficiently provide the highest levels of incident command in the event of a homeland security emergency, whether related to acts of terrorism or natural disaster; and WHEREAS, the City of Tukwila recognizes the need for a single, standardized incident management system to be used by all government agencies and disciplines in the event of an emergency and desires to adopt the National Incident Management System, NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF TUKWILA, WASHINGTON, HEREBY RESOLVES AS FOLLOWS: Section 1. National Incident Management System Adopted. The City of Tukwila adopts the National Incident Management System, a copy of which shall remain on file with the City Clerk's Office, which shall be used by the City's emergency response personnel for all homeland security incidents and drills, whether related to acts of terrorism, or to natural, man-made or technological disasters. Section 2. Ratification. Any act consistent with the authority and prior to the effective date of this resolution is hereby ratified and affirmed. Section 3. Effective Date. This resolution shall take effect and be in full force immediately upon its passage.

Resolution deleting VNET Petty Cash and Police Investigation funds For two years the City has been processing bills from the Valley Narcotics Enforcement Team (VNET), and it IS time to turn this responsibilIty over tq the City of Auburn. A resolutIOn is needed to delete the two funds that were set up to handle the VNET account. No other petty cash fund amounts need to be changed. As VNET's fiscal year ends June 30, the actual turnover will occur m July. Recommend resolution-to Regular Meeting. .~ 2. Resolution Adoptimr National Incident Management System (NIlVIS) Nick explained '" the City needs to adopt the National Incident Management System (NIMS) model to become qualified to apply for Homeland Secunty grants. Jim M said the NIMS system includes the Incident Command System (rCS). The Police, Fire, and Public 'Narks staffs have all been working toward getting their NIMS certification. The system was adopted by the federal government in September 2004, and they wanted to have states and local government adopt it by 2005, though they have now moved compliance to October, 2006. People who go through the NIMS training and pass the test are put on a national register. JIm M said communications wIll still be a major issue in planning to meet emergencies. Until emergencies get their own phone channel, it will be a problem. Jim also noted the police radios are bemg replaced in this second year of rotation. Pam asked ifNIMS would help us communicate with other cities, and was told all cities should have this system in place soon. Recommend resolution to COW and Regular Meeting. r.-'\.

BACKGROUND The City has received federal grant funds to design improvements for Interurban Ave S from S 143rd St to Fort Dent Way. KPG, Inc., was selected as the design engineering fIrm. The existing street cross section is fIve lanes, two through lanes in each direction and a center two-way left turn lane. The pavement has been in poor condition for several years and there are no sidewalks for much of the project length. This project was funded to design urban street improvements including curb, gutter, and sidewalk on both sides of the street; storm drainage improvements; illumination; pavement restoration; traffic signal interconnect; and landscaping. The alignment is not expected to change. ANALYSIS KPG, Inc., has developed a preliminary plan layout for the street and proposed improvements to be displayed at the Transportation Committee meeting. A typical U-turn plan and cross section drawing are attached to this memo. A plan for the entire project will be presented at the meeting. The character of the new design elements is intended to be consistent with previously constructed segments of Interurban Ave S. The most notable change to the plan is the addition of landscaped center medians. While this will limit some of the direct left turn access into existing driveways, the aesthetic impacts and reduction in accidents are considered to be signifIcant improvements. In order to mitigate left turn restrictions due to the median, U- turn opportunities have been proposed. The alternative to the proposed plan would be to add more left turn pockets or two-way left turn lanes. This would be less preferable as it would break up the center median into smaller islands that would not be as aesthetically attractive or reduce accidents as much as the preferred alternative. RECOMMENDATION Approve the conceptual design and authorize staff and consultants to proceed with fInal design including any recommendations by the Transportation Committee. attachment: Typical Cross Section Transportation Committee June 13, 2005 Present: Jim Haggerton, Chair; Joe Duffie, Pam Carter JIm Morrow, Frank Iriarte, Bob Giberson, Robin TIschmak, Lucy Lauterbach, Joe Glacobazzi, Nandez Miller-KPG * 1. Interurban Ave Conceptual Desh~n Analysis Robin saId Interurban Ave from S l43rd to Fort Dent Way was the last piece of Interurban to be finished. KPG's design that mcluded some boulevard elements was so interesting that staff asked KPG to extend it further north beyond S. l43rd north almost to 1-5. Joe G said the large frontages on Interurban lent themselves to a boulevard desIgn. Speeding is also an.issue on Interurban, and trees planted m the medIan as well as on the edges of the street may slow traffic. Nandez talked about the plan for breaks m the medians for left turns, and how u-turns could be done at some left turn pockets. Jim M said the new design follows what the Council has approved for recent streets like Till and Southcenter Parkway and Boulevard. Jim H asked what trees are in the 12' median landscaped area, and whether an Identifiable theme wIth similar trees was being installed on other improved streets in the City. Robin said they have learned not to plant trees that are round in shapes, as trucks will knock offleaves and branches. Instead they are looking at columnar shapes, but they will use similar trees as in other projects Pam C saId the design looked great, and was a welcome Improvement. Robm saId by addmg a medIan the project would receive a hIgher score at Till ratings. There have also been some fatalIties on Interurban, so safety improvements will help. The Committee asked again that small signs be put warnmg dnvers that a certain intersection is coming up so driving decisions don't have to be last mmute. Jim also noted that because S. l60th is a u-turn route for southbound drivers in Till, vehicles commg from S. 160th to Till often need to wait for the left turns to fimsh before they can turn onto the highway. The committee wholeheartedly supported the desIgn. Recommend design to June 27 COW, and authorize move toward final design. 2. WSDOT Construction Schedule Although there are not any state construction projects scheduled for this year in Tukwila, there are several on 1-5,99, and 509 that could affect dnvmg in the region. 1-405 in Tukwila IS scheduled for 2008.

Continued preparation of cut sheets I plans for Design - Build RFP documents. Started strength testing of the existing shoulders of 1-405 and SR167 to determine suitability for carrying traffic loads. Carried out annual CEVP analysis to determine estimated construction costs. Met with Utility owners and agencies in January 2005 Review of as-built utility drawings and identification of potential conflicts is ongoing. Environmental documentation process started in January 2005 Held Public and Agency Scoping meetings in late January 2005 and prepared draft responses to comments. Continued field surveying delineated wetlands and existing utilities Continued coordination with Environmental Banking Oversight Committee (BOC) and the City of Renton to establish credits for Springbrook wetland mitigation site Finalized Interdisciplinary Design Team (IDT) Site Visits and prepared Report summarizing results. Continued coordination with the Cities of Tukwila and Renton, local neighborhoods and businesses to resolve issues and concerns early in the Nickel project development. Design Construction Impacts The West Valley Highway to Maple Valley Highway (Nickel) project is essentially a widening project for northbound and southbound 1-405 legs approaching the SR 167 Interchange. Retaining walls will be utilized wherever necessary to minimize impacts to adjacent properties, wetlands and drainage facilities. The Benson Structure Overcrossing, including the center pier located in the 1-405 median, will be replaced to accommodate the proposed widening of 1-405 and the final alignment of 1-405 anticipated for the Master Plan. The project also extends the southbound SR 167 HOV lane north to begin under the 1-405 Structure. Vllidening and restriping of southbound SR 167 will also be required.

Jim Haggerton, Chair; Joe Duffie, Pam Carter Jim Morrow, Frank marte, Bob Giberson, Robm Tischmak, Lucy Lauterbach, Joe Giacobazzi, Nandez Miller-KPG 1. Interurban Ave Conceptual Design Analvsis Robin saId Interurban Ave from S 143rd to Fort Dent 'Way was the last piece of Interurban to be finished. KPG's desIgn that included some boulevard elements was so interestmg that staff asked KPG to extend it further north beyond S. 143rd north almost to 1-5 Joe G said the large frontages on Interurban lent themselves to a boulevard design. Speedmg is also an issue on Interurban, and trees planted in the median as well as on the edges of the street may slow traffic Nandez talked about the plan for breaks in the medians for left turns, and how u-turns could be done at some left turn pockets. Jim M said the new design follows what the Council has approved for recent streets like TIB and Southcenter Parkway and Boulevard. Jim H asked what trees are in the 12' median landscaped area, and whether an Identifiable theme with sImilar trees was bemg mstalled on other improved streets in the City. Robin said they have learned not to plant trees that are round in shapes, as trucks will knock offleaves and branches. Instead they are looking at columnar shapes, but they wIll use similar trees as in other projects. Pam C said the design looked great, and was a welcome improvement. Robin said by adding a median the project would receive a higher score at TIB ratmgs There have also been some fatalities on Interurban, so safety improvements will help. The Committee asked agam that small signs be put warnmg dnvers that a certain mtersectiOn is commg up so driving decisions don't have to be last minute. Jim also noted that because S. 160th is a u-turn route for southbound dnvers in TIB, vehicles coming from S. 160th to TIB often need to wait for the left turns to finish before they can turn onto the highway. The committee wholeheartedly supported the design. Recommend design to June 27 CO\V, and authorize move toward final design.
