Subject:
2005 Transportation Partnership Funding Package
BACKGROUND
The 2005 state legislature enacted a number of new laws, including increased state funding for
transportation, under the umbrella of the 2005 Transportation Partnership Act. The funding
package in the Partnership Act supplemented additional state funding the legislature approved in
2003 in what is commonly referred to as the Nickel Package. In addItion to the new state
funding, the Partnership Act also included a number of accountability mechanisms, including
empowering the State Auditor to conduct perfonnance audits of state transportation agencies and
empowering the Governor to appoint the Secretary of Transportation, making WSDOT a cabinet
agency.
The funding mechanisms in the Partnership Act, combined with the Nickel Package, will have a
profound impact on implementation ofthe region's transportation plan, Destination 2030. State,
local and regional planners are now assessing the impact on projects within the region to better
prepare for the next steps, including preparation of a regional ballot measure currently
anticipated in 2006 and the update of Destination 2030.
DISCUSSION
Staffrrom the Washington State Department of Transportation will brief the board on the
funding mechanisms in the Partnership Act and the impact on regional projects. A six page
summary of the funding mechanisms in the Act prepared by the department is enclosed. Staff
rrom the department will also make a presentation on the combined impact of the Nickel
Package and the Partnership Act on projects in the region.
For more infonnation, please contact Charlie Howard at (206) 464-7122.

What does the 2005 Funding Package promise for future
transportation investment in Washington?
The 2005 Washington State legislature provided a 16-year expenditure plan to take care of some
of Washington State's most critical transportation needs. Over 270 projects will be funded by this
package that will make roads and bridges safer as well as ease choke points on the system.

For a car that gets an average of 22 miles per gallon, driving 12,000 miles a year you will pay an
additional $16 per year in 2005, $33 in 2006, $44 in 2007 and finally by 2008 you will be paying
$52 per year for the new gas tax.
New Weight Fees for Passenger
Vehicles
All passenger cars are charged a $30
license fee. Passenger cars will now pay
an additional weight fee.
How much will the new vehicle weight fee
cost?
The following tables give vehicle examples for
the three weight classifications. Most of
Washington's passenger vehicles (84%) fall
into the $10 weight fee range.

When all the new revenues are in place, how will the state's total gas
tax amounts be distributed?
Collected at the state level, the gas tax is
distributed by statutory formula. The gas tax
is covered by the 18th Amendment of the
State Constitution and can only be used for
highway purposes (State ferries are
considered highways)
Cities and Counties currently receive a
statutory distribution of the gas tax. The
2005 Funding Package provides an
additional distribution to local governments.
Cites and Counties will each receive a
quarter of a cent from the first 3~ increase in
2005, and another quarter of a cent each
from the second increase in 2006 (totaling
%It for each) Like the state, Cities and
Counties must use these funds for highway
purposes.
The state (WSDOT) receives the remaining
2%~ from the 2005 and 2006 increases, 21t
from the 2007 increase, and 1 %~ from the
2008 increase (totaling BYz~).
The pie chart displays the new statutory distribution of the gas tax, through 2008

How will Washington's gas tax serve future transportation needs?
Looking at the gas tax over a period of time, from 1991 (when the gas tax was raised to 23~/gal) out to
2021, the effect of inflation is clearly evident. The value (in 1991 dollars) of the 23~ dips to a low of 18.1~
in 2003, then rises to 21 6~ when the nickel tax is added in 2004, then starts to decline again until 2005
when the new tax is implemented. It is projected to continue to rise through 2009 when it will reach a
high of 26 3~. The value then will start to decline again, reaching a projected 1991 purchasing power
value af 19.2i in 2021 Revenues from the gas tax (expressed in 1991 purchasing power) follow the
same trend line. However motor fuel consumption and vehicles miles traveled continue to grow at a
consistent rate over time.

Analysis of the 2005 legislative enactment has not yet been completed. The amounts shown are believed
to be approximately correct but are still preliminary and subject to adjustment.
Pre-Existing funding is programmed in ten-year increments. Revenues are forecasted, bond sale plans
are developed and project expenditures are projected over a ten-year period. As we end one biennium,
another two-year period is added to the out-year plan. Our current ten-year plan goes from fiscal year
2006 through fiscal year 2015, in biennial terms, 2005-07 through 2013-15
The 2003 Transportation Funding Package, which included the nickel gas tax increase and a sales tax
increase on vehicle sales, was also for a ten-year period. Revenues are forecasted and projects were
planned to take place within the ten-year period. Revenue collections and project expenditures stared in
July 2004 The final sale from $2.6 billion bond authorization for this funding package will be sold by
2013
The 2005 Transportation Funding Package is for a 16-year period The revenues are forecasted and
project expenditures are planned, and the bond sales will be spread over the 16-year period The 16-
year plan runs from fiscal year 2006-2021, in biennial terms, 2005-07 through 2019-21
The 2005 Funding Package also provided apportionments for:
,/ Cities and Counties
./ County Road Administration Board (Grant Programs)
,/ Transportation Improvement Board (Grant Programs)

Fuel Taxes:
A State-by-State Comparison
December 31,2004
This State-by-State Fuel Tax Comparison report is published with the intent to assess and
compare Washington's fuel tax to that of the other 49 states and the District of Columbia.
Throughout the country, state and local governments impose a variety of cents-per-gallon taxes
and taxes based on the retail or wholesale price of fuel, Some states also impose other
environmental or business taxes that translate into cents-per -gallon charges at the pump. To
determine how Washington compares, the Washington State Department of Transportation semi-
annually analyzes data from other states to learn what taxes are imposed on fuel used by cars
and trucks traveling on the nation's roads.
The findings for the second half of 2004 place Washington's fuel taxes in the top 20 percent
nationally, The national average state and local gasoline tax rate for this six-month period is
23 72rt per gallon. Washington's 28rt tax rate is similar to the other western states (Oregon
27.0rt, Idaho 25 Ott, and Montana 27 75rt) but still lower than states with congestion problems
similar to ours (New York 35.22rt, California 33,1rt. and Florida 29A7rt), The findings also
illustrate the complexity of fuel tax structures nationwide.
This update of Fuel Taxes, A State-by-State Comparison reveals only minor changes from the
previous report and covers the period from July 1, 2004 through December 31, 2004
Washington ranks 10th among the 50 states and the District of Columbia for combined state,
federal, and local gasoline taxes, A majority of the states (34) have combined fuel tax rates that
fall within the 20rt to 30rt range,
seven states fall into the 30rt to
40rt range, and the remaining
ten have combined fuel tax
rates under 20rt.
Since the June 2004 report,
twelve states have had
changes to their fuel tax rates.
The accompanying tables detail
the states, the change and the
reason for change.
The information in this report is
gathered primarily from the
Commerce Clearing House
(CCH) State Tax Guide, Statute
Summaries. In addition, data
was supplemented with
information supplied by
individual states, official DOT
websites and telephone
interviews with officials in
selected states.

1. Green River Valley Signal Interconnect Proiect Completion and Acceotance Totem Electric
completed the installation of fiber optic cable WIth five chfu'1ge orders that upgraded the fiber to 36
strands and added the connection to Mmkler Shops for the new Traffic Operations Center. Jim H
asked if there was a standard fiber SIze and was told no, that 36 is a lot but JIm M told him we can
not have more capacity than what is needed. Frank added that 36 strands seems large now, but m a
few years it may not be enough capacity. ThIs project had our in-house constructIOn management
team, which resulted in over $28,000 m savings. The project has been approved, and is ready for
final acceptance. Recommend cont~act approval on consent agenda of a Regular Meeting.
2. TransDortation Funding Update Pam Carter attended the Puget Sound RegIOnal CouncIl
and obtained tIllS packet on the Nickel Package and the new 2005 funding. The 2005
transportation funding has a chart of the gas tax progression through 2008 as well as the new
weight fees and the increase in drivers' license services as well as license plates. The average
driver wIll be paying approximately $309.08 in gas ta.,"'{es and state license fees m 2005 There IS
a descnption of how the funds will be dIstributed (for cities Its based on populatIOn) and a lrsting
of programs and proJects. The majonty of the King County funds will go towards safety and then
congestion. The last page is a state by state comparison of fuel taxes and Washington is currently
number lO from the highest. Committee recommends forwarding to COvV as information for
the entire Council.

Gambling Ordinance
ISSUE
Whether the City should adopt by reference RCW sections relating to misdemeanor gambling
offenses in order for the City to prosecute these offenses? Currently these offenses are
prosecuted by King County.
BACKGROUND
This is the second presentation ofthis issue, prompted by The Washington State Gambling
Commission, requesting that the City adopt RCW sections relating to gambling offenses in order
for the City to enforce State law. When initially presented on May 16, 2005, the Committee
requested additional information on this issue regarding: 1) what other cities are doing; 2) what
additional costs \yould be incurred by the City; and 3) whether more sections ofthe RCW
relating to gambling should be adopted.
DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS/ALTERNATIVES
The following are answers to the questions raised by the Committee:
1) Upon a brief survey of neighboring jurisdictions, Burien, SeaTac and Des Moines have
adopted by reference RCW sections pertaining to gambling; whereas, Renton and Auburn have
not.
2) It is unclear what the additional costs of enforcing these provisions would be although
it would likely be de minimis. The City Prosecutor believes that she has declined about 10 of
these types of cases in the last year due to the CIty'S lack of jurisdiction. The impact that these
cases would have on the Prosecutor's caseload would be negligible.
3) The Washmgton State Gambling Commission has requested that the City adopt RCvV
9.46.196 (Cheating - Defined) and .1962 (Cheating in the second degree). The City Attorney has
included additIOnal gamblIng sections that are applicable to the CIty. Sections not included relate
primarrly to crimes that the City cannot enforce such as felonies and sections pertaining to the
Washington State Gambling Commission.
Special Agent 'Dmmy Lisa of the Washington State Gambling Commission will be in attendance
to answer any additional questions the Committee may have in relation to this proposed
ordinance.
RECOMMENDATION
Adoption of the Gambling Ordinance.

Proposed Ordinance Regarding Cheating In Cardrooms, Mmi-Casmos, and
Gambling Establishments
Summary: Peter briefed the committee on the draft ordinance and the
underlying purpose associated with the proposed document. Essentially
the King County Prosecutor's Office will not prosecute Tukwila gambling
violations and by adopting the state statutes by reference, prosecutIOn may
occur for violations occurring within our jurisdiction. In the absence of an
ordinance, it makes it difficult for the gambling commission to enforce the
law. The City experiences approximately 10 cheating cases a year.
Recommendation: Refer proposed ordinance to the Committee of the
Whole.
2. Proposed Financial Policies
Summary: The committee approved the proposed changes related to
polIcIes FP-8 and GF-5. Additional changes were proposed- specifically
to policy FP-4 by addmg "Project" to the start of the first sentence, and to
the draft memo dated August 11, 2005, Other General Financial Policies,
last sentence to read "Furthennore, it mtroduces new elements and
fonnalizes the existing process related to grant application." With respect
to the policies addressing grants, Pam Carter requested that Kevin poll the
departments to ascertain what if any impacts may be felt as a consequence
ofthe draft policies and to report the fmdings when the policies are
reviewed by the Committee of the Whole. On the sample projected debt
capacity chart Dennis Robertson suggested that "non-voted,
councilmanic" be added to the chart heading for clarity purposes and to
change the specific project reference to a hypothetical project.
Recommendation: Refer draft policIes to the Committee of the Whole
with the additional aforementioned changes.

Subject:
Draft Financial Policies
For the past several months, the Finance and Safety Committee has engaged
in the development of policies related to debt, the Financial Planning Model,
and other general financial matters. The draft policies represent either a
formalization of our past and current standards or the introduction of a
reasonable business practice. This representation is outlined in greater detail
for the 3 policies areas as follows:
Debt Policies:
./ Legal Debt Limit: This formalizes the processes that have been
employed in the past as bond issuance was considered
./ Practical or Fiscal Limitations: This section represents a
formalization of past practice.
./ General Debt Policies: This section formalizes past practice
and introduces a hierarchial preference for the type of debt
Issuance.
Financial Planning Model Policies:
./ Generally the draft policies were lifted from the 6- Year
Financial Planning Model and Capital Improvement Program.
./ In addition, this policy section formalizes past practice.
./ For cash management and long range financial planning
prudence, a new policy measure within this band is the
introduction of a fund balance "floor" that may not fall below
$3 million.
./ Finally, the matter of utility rate increases and the pass through
of external agency rates (i.e. King County) are addressed in a
formal policy format.
Other General Financial Policies:
./ Largely this policy section formalizes past practice and sets
specificity with respect to activities and timelines.
./ Furthermore, it introduces new elements and memorializes the
existing process related to grant application.
I look forward to reviewing the draft policies with you at the August 22,
2005 meeting of the Committee of the Whole.

CITY OF TUKvVILA
Debt Policies
The Debt PolIcies can be segregated into three areas: Legal Debt lImIts, Practical or
Fiscal limits and General Debt policIes.
A. Legal Debt Limit - The Revised Code of Washington (RCW 39.36) establishes the
legal debt limits for cities. Specifically, this RCW provIdes that debt cannot be
incurred in excess of the following percentages of the value of the taxable property of
the City: 1.5% without a vote of the people; 2.5% with a vote of the people; 5.0%
with a vote of the people, provided the mdebtedness in excess of 2.5% is for utIlItIes;
and 7.5% with a vote ofthe people, provIded the indebtedness in excess of 5.0% is
for parks or open space development.
A sample schedule for the current 12 year period is attached to demonstrate the
impact certain projections would have on debt capacIty limitations.
Policy DP-1 - Prior to issuing any long-tenn bonds, the Administration must provIde
an impact analysis over the life ofthe new bonds. Bond issues must be approved by
the City Council.
B. Practical or Fiscal LImitations - More important than the legal limitations is the
practical or fiscal limitations, i.e. ability to repay borrowed funds.
Policy DP-2 - Long-tenn debt cannot be issued pnor to reviewing the impact on the
Six Year Planning Model and its policy guidelmes. The impact of other potential
bond issues shall be considered.
Policy DP-3 - Fiscal Policy for large developments. To be detennined.
C. General Debt Policies
Policy DP-4 - The City will be cognizant of the critena used by rating agencies to
maintain the highest possible bond rating.
Policy DP-5 - Assessment Debt (LID) is preferred to General debt.
Policy DP-6 - Debt Issuance will confonn to IRS regulatIOns and avoid arbitrage
consequences.

CITY OF TUKWILA
Financial Planning Model Policies
The Six-Year Financial Planning Model and Capital Improvement Program is the
primary financial policy document. It represents the culmination of all financIal policies.
Revenues
Policy FP-1 - Revenues will be estimated on a conservative basIs. Increases
greater than mflation ill Attachment A, Total Revenues and Expenditures, will
require additional documentation.
Policy FP-2 -Major revenue sources will require explanation in Attachment A-I,
Notes to Revenues.
Operations & Maintenance ExpendItures
Policy FP-3 - Expenditures for the General Fund operations (Attachment B,
General Fund Operations & Maintenance Expenditures) will only include basIc
mflationary increases at the beginning ofthe budget preparation process.
Proposed increases in programs or personnel will require an issues and options
paper and Council approval before being added to the operations & maintenance
expenditures estimate.
Capital ExpendItures
Policy FP-4 - Project capital grants with local matching requIrements can only be
applied for with express approval by the City Council. Grant applications shall be
made only for projects hsted in the six-year Capital Improvement Program.
Pohcy FP-5 - If the proposed grants or mitigation are either not funded or are
reduced, the respective proj ect will be re-evaluated on the basis of its value and
priority level placement in the Capital Improvement Program.
Policy FP-6 - The financing of limited benefit capital improvements (i.e. private
development) should be borne by the primary beneficiaries ofthe improvement.
The principle underlying limited benefit is that the property is peculiarly benefited
and therefore the owners do not in fact pay anything in excess of what they
receive by reason of such improvement.
Fund Balances
Policy FP-7 - The General Fund will maintain a designated $1,100,000 "Rainy
Day Fund" balance that is not included in Attachment A, Total Revenues &
Expenditures, of the SIx-Year Planmng Model. Furthennore, in order to assure a
minimum cash flow scenario the Accumulated Totals wIthm the SIX -Year
Planning Model may not recede below $3,000,000 in Attachment A, Total
Revenues & Expenditures.
Policy FP-8 - If compliance with Policy FP-7 is at risk; the Administration will
provide a list of revenue options, service level/program reductions or capital
project deferrals for City Council consideration.
Enterprise Funds
Policy FP-9 - Each Enterprise Fund will be reviewed annually and it must have a
rate structure adequate to ,meet its operatIOns & mamtenance and long-tenn
capital requirements.
Policy FP-l 0 - Rate increases should be small, applIed ftequently, and staggered
to avoid an overly burdensome increase and undue impact m any given year.
Policy FP-ll- Rate increases of external agencies (i.e. King County secondary
wastewater treatment fees) will be passed through to the users of the utilIty.

Franchise - Clearwire Communications
ISSUE
Should the City grant Clearwire Communications a franchise to install, maintain, and operate
wireless facilities within the City's right-of-way?
BACKGROUND
Clearwire is a new wireless internet carrier that is based out of Kirkland, Washington. The
telecommunications company is building a very extensive, high quality network that will
provide fast, affordable wireless broadband internet service to residential and commercial
customers throughout the Puget Sound area.
DISCUSSION
To support its wireless system, Clearwire is proposing to install wireless facilities within the
City's right-of-way. Wireless facilities will consist of panel antennas and microwave panels
secured on new or existing structures such as utility poles. The height above ground of the
utility pole and antenna/microwave system is approximately 54 feet. The antenna system will
have associated coax cable running down the pole to an equipment cabinet that would be
installed in the right-of-way adjacent to the utility pole.
Installation of wireless facilities in the City rights-of-way requires a franchise. In consultation
with the City Attorney's Office, staff has completed a fInal draft Franchise Agreement
(attached) for Council consideration. The document incorporates provisions of the recently
adopted City of Tukwila Right-of-Way Use Code.
RECOMMENDATION
Forward to Utilities Committee, Committee of the Whole, and Regular Council for franchise
approval/disapproval determination.

FRANCHISE AGREEMENT
CLEARWIRE COMMUNICATIONS
Project Description: Clearwire plans to install wIreless broadband internet facIlIties wIthin
the CIty right-of-way (ROW). Installations will generally consist of antennas and/ or
microwaves placed on top of new or existing structures (i.e. utility poles) m the ROW.
Average height above ground of the antennas IS approximately 54 feet. The antennas will
have associated coax running down the pole to a base transceiver station (BTS). The BTS wIll
be placed either in the ROW or on adJacent property to the ROW. Each installation will
require power and telephone and/or microwave connectivity. IndIvidual installahons will
vary depending on location and specific engmeering cnteria.
Clearwire wIreless facilities are designed to be the least visually obtrusIve desIgn while
meeting the coverage objectives and complIance with all applicable codes. The sites will be
unmanned and will not require water, waste treatment or management of hazardous waste
Minimal traffic would be generated during the construction phase while the crew is tI"aveling
to and from the site. Existing access and parking will be utilized, no vehIcular access to the
equipment area IS necessary after complehon of construction. After construchon is
completed, there would be approximately one visit per month by a field engmeer for routine
maintenance.
Facilities Location and Standards: Clearwire wireless facilities will initially be located m the
vicmity of the south end of 57th Avenue and south of South 150th in Tukwila, W A, on Puget
Sound Energy utility pole number 317394-164678. The need for new sites IS dIctated by
market demand, capacity, coverage reqUIrements for a particular geographic area, and the
radio frequency hand-off from one site to another m order to achieve seamless
communications coverage. The selection and design of a specific PCS site is further refined
by considering local topographIc and geographic factors, tree canopy, buildings, mountains,
water bodies, the ability to mitigate the antenna support structure's visual impact,
compatibility of the facility with existing land uses, and space availability. Because PCS
signals must travel in an unobstructed path from the facility to the user, the presence of any
one or all of these factors can negatively influence the quality of transmissIOn and receptIon.
The height and location of each Clearwire site is based upon the ability of the site to
effectively functIon despite those obstacles. In addition, Federal Aviation Administration
requIrements regulate the height of an antenna support structure near or on major airport
facilities.
In the event Clearwire decides to construct new wireless facilities, Clearwlre shall subffilt
plans and obtain permits as required by Title 11 of the Tukwila Murucipal Code. City
reserves the right to approve sihng, construchon standards, and specificahons of the new
wireless facilities.

1. Cleanvire Communications Franchise Agreement Dave introduced the tOpIC by
welcoming Brian and Walter, and saying hIgh speed internet service provIders like them were
very welcome in Tukwila. Clearwire is bUIlding a network of broadband wIreless connectlOns
from Everett to Tacoma. They are currently workmg wIth 70 jurisdIctions to achieve coverage III
the reglOn. They have asked to put wIreless facilities III the CIty'S nghts of way. The company IS
mterested III property near the reservoir at the top of sih A venue in Tukwila. Antenna on utility
poles will be approximately 54 feet high. Xoax cable would then run from the antenna to a
cab met on the ground. The Clearwater representatIves likened the coverage of theIr system to a
cell phone company. They said it would be especIally useful for sales and for delivery
companies. A person would need a modem to use the system at the start, though in three years
they anticipate moving to issuing a card to subscribing users who then wouldn't need a modem.
Joan asked if the facilities would affect residents. J1lll M said the antenna emIt microwaves that
have been found by the FCC to be safe. Jim H asked if It would Illterfere wIth our vIdeo system,
and was told it would not. The franchise will run for three years. Recommend franchise
agreement to COW and Special .Meeting August 23rd.
2. Federal Telecommunications Bill A bill that was defeated last year has again been
introduced in the U.S. Senate this year. If enacted, it would have dIre consequences on control
of our own rights of way, franchise agreements, and could reqUIre the CIty to let private industry
control our signal Illterconnects, for example. Jim H noted there is already plenty of competItlOn
in our right of way, and we don't need federal interference m that. Givmg total control of our
right of way to a private company would be bad for the City. The Senate is working on a total re-
write of the Federal TelecommunicatIOns Act, and if passed thIS bIll would be part of the Act.
A'rVC has sent out an alert on the issue. Information~ lobby aj!ainst the bill.
3. Second Quarter Reports The Commitfee members questioned Jim M on the status ofthe
Allentown sewers. He replied they will hear sometime this month about whether they got the
Public Works Trust Fund loan needed to do the work. Cascade VIew work is proceedmg on
schedule The first phase is 50% complete, and the neighborhood is cooperatmg. Reports
approved.

Re: Proposed Re-Alignment of S. 178th St at Southcenter Parkway
Dear Lisa:
Several members of the City Council expressed an interest m understandmg how much of
the Pasture License and how much of the House License areas would be lost under the latest
proposal. I have prepared a diagram showing the area of the Pasture License and House License
and the portion of that area taken away by the road and pond construction contained ill the latest
proposal. The area ofthe Pasture License and House License taken away is highlighted in yellow.
To be accurate, construction of the relocated Southcenter Parkway and the adjacent ponds
leaves a portion of the Pasture License on the east side of the relocated street unaffected. As a
practical matter, however, the proposal would sever the Pasture License area leaving the unaffected
area on the east side of the new street inaccessible for the llamas and therefore useless for the
Pasture License. I have therefore highlighted in yellow all of the Pasture License area lying WIthin
the boundaries of the two relocated streets, plus the severed portion of the Pasture License area on
the east side of the new street, whlch would be useless for pasturing the llamas. I estimate, based
upon the enclosed diagram, that the proposal would take away at least 75% of the Pasture License
and would surround the House License area with construction and excavation, rendering the
residence uninhabitable.
I will see you next Monday night. In the meantime, if you have any questions, please call.
Y")ljery truly yours,
,
