ISSUE
Authorize Mayor to sign a contract with Encore Media West for a Seattle Southside's full-back page, 4-
color ad in the 2007 Washington State Visitor's Guide in the amount of$31,873.
BACKGROUND
Washington State Visitor's Guide is the official state visitor guide produced in cooperation with
Washington Office of Tourism and Washington State Lodging Association. It continues to be one of Seattle
Southside Visitor Services most successful paid advertising strategies; with a circulation of 400,000 and
reaching over 1,000,000 readers, the total cost per impression is $0.03.
DISCUSSION
Success is further evidenced by the number of phone calls and walk-ins generated and tracked through the
Visitor Center as compared to other placed Seattle Southside advertisements. Additionally, the back page
placement offers excellent visibility for Seattle Southside Visitor Services within the tourism industry.
The 2007 Seattle Southside Visitor Services media schedule was approved collectively by the Tukwila,
SeaTac, Kent and Des Moines Lodging Tax Advisory Committees and included this ad placement.
Budget impacts: There is no additional budget request for this item. The cost for this ad is budgeted within
the Council approved 2007 Tourism Program budget; however, because the proposed contract amount is
over $25,000, it requires Council approval.

Donation of Equipment
February 1,2007
As you are aware, we partner with the Occupational Skill Center's fire program; we have
hosted their summer training program for the last two years and I anticipate that this
relationship will continue. Our personnel assist with the summer program, teaching
classes to the students. This fire program has gro\vn each year and is one of the most
popular programs of the center.
You may recall, last year during our discussions about replacing our 1986 International
Pumpers, I stated that our intent was to request authorization to donate one of them to the
skill center for their program. We have received the first new pumper and plan on having
it in service by March First.
In addition, as a result of our Sound Transit mitigation funds, we have replaced all of our
fire hose and all of our nozzles. The skill center has requested that we donate the
following surplus equipment to them:
. Six 1-3/4" nozzles
. Four 2-112" nozzles
. Two gated wyes
. Two hydrant gates
. 300' of 1-3/4" hose
. 300' of 2-112" hose
I request your authorization to donate one 1986 International Pumper and the above
referenced surplus equipment to the Occupational Skill Center.
Thank you in advance for your consideration of this request

FOURTH QUARTERlYEAR END REPORT TO COUNCIL
October 1 - December 31, 2006
Prepared for Finance & Safety Committee
MAYOR'S OFFICE
2006 YEAR END SUMMARY
2006 came in with a whimper and went out with a BANG! Neither snow, nor sleet, nor hail, nor wind, nor
lack of electrical power kept City employees from going about their duties. City Hall was shut down, due
to lack of electrical power, for the first time in many years. City crews and first responders did yeoman's
work keeping streets clear, traffic moving, and responding to incidents and accidents.
Revenues appear to be on a steady, though small, upswing, though energy and project costs continue to
increase.
4th QUARTER SIGNIFICANT ISSUES
Issues of significance during the 4th quarter included our ongoing efforts regarding Tukwila South,
planning for a visit from our DC lobbyists, and completing our 2007 Budget.

2. Continue efforts to secure Federal appropriations in support of key infrastructure proiects: Ongoing.
3. Continue to pursue opportunities to establish quality affordable housinq and to improve existinq
housinq stock: Ongoing.

MUNICIPAL COURT
2006 YEAR END SUMMARY
Charges filed
Criminal hearings held
Traffic hearings held
City revenue collected
This year we focused our efforts on establishing a Domestic Violence Protection Order and Anti-
harassment Order program, standardizing our forms, and creating our Jail Alternatives Program.
Domestic Violence Protection Order program has proven to be a valuable service to our community.
We've averaged nearly one emergency order petition/hearing every week. The court rule permitting
citizens to petition for Anti-harassment Orders went into effect September 1, 2006. Our staff standardized
all court forms, conformed them to new State court rules and planned for the elimination of certain forms
that may be accessed via electronic means. This will occur when Internet access is available on the dias.
The Court Management Team and Probation Department spent a considerable amount of time preparing
a Jail Alternatives Program. The program proposal includes Tukwila community volunteer service, pre-
trial electronic home monitoring, and courtroom day reporting as alternatives to short-term incarceration.
The day reporting will include the presentation of educational/ treatment materials. We are currently in
the late stages of planning and hope to be operational by the end of the calendar year.

CITY ATTORNEY
2006 YEAR END SUMMARY
This year was extremely busy for the City Attorney's office. We have successfully reduced the cost of
criminal prosecution by resolving many cases prior to trial; thereby reducing jury, witness and officer costs.
A large amount of time has been devoted to assisting Code Enforcement personnel in the abatement of
many nuisances in the City. We continue to work with City Staff on the TVS annexation project and will
continue to do so in the coming year.
The Open Frame Growth Board Appeal was dismissed this year on the City's motion. They have now
appealed to Superior Court with a hearing date in mid 2007.

FIRE DEPARTMENT
YEAR END SUMMARY
Again, in 2006, we were able to fulfill our stated mission to the community. We were successful
because of the dedicated men and women of the department. We continued to build our relationship with
Local 2088. We faced a number of sensitive personnel issues that were resolved through a great deal of
trust and communication with the union executive board. Without those two elements, the issues would
have been much more difficult to resolve.
We responded to a record 4921 calls in 2006, with 595 of them occurring in December! A few of these
calls are worth mentioning again: the Valley Vinyl fire, the Boulevard Park School Fire, the three alarm
freeway brush fire, our rescue team response to the flooding in Carnation/Duvall and their response to the
Black Hawke helicopter crash.
Again in 2006, our training division was busy making sure that our personnel are prepared to deal
efficiently and effectively regardless of the nature of the call. The training division was very involved and
influential in the Zone 3 and King County training groups; our chief of training was the chair of the Zone 3
Training officers.
Department officers taught NIMS ICS to city staff and are preparing to deliver additional NIMS training
in 2007. We continued to offer CPR and first aid training to the community. We assisted DCD with
sampling the Tukwila Pond and remain ready to assist other city departments when it is needed.

Fire prevention personnel were busy receiving training throughout the year in preparation for the
various pending projects including the mall expansion and redevelopment of the old JC Penney site.
Creating the project coordinator position has been very beneficial for fire prevention.
We were able to hire our third shift female firefighter; she is proving to be a good addition to the
department. We also made a minor change to our entry level testing requirements in an effort to attract
more minorities to the department.
Unfortunately we were unable to keep our overtime down because of a series of injuries that resulted in
five shift personnel being off at the same time. We are almost at our authorized staffing level; we have
one person out indefinitely. We continue to emphasize physical fitness, proper nutrition and proper
personal protective equipment to reduce illness or injury.
Personal protection has received additional scrutiny because of the emphasis placed on preparing for a
possible pandemic. We have provided city personnel with information on ways to protect themselves and
their families in the event of a pandemic; we will continue to provide information and training to city
personnel as appropriate.
4th QUARTER SIGNIFICANT ISSUES
The fourth quarter was a memorable time for the department on a number of fronts. Our rescue team
personnel were specifically requested to assist removal of flood victims in the Carnation/Duvall area and
to assist the Army in the removal of victims of a Black Hawk helicopter crash. We were inundated with
calls related to the December windstorm, logging over 150 calls in a 48-hour period. We took delivery of
the new aerial ladder, new nozzles and new hose courtesy of Sound Transit mitigation funds. We also
purchased "ballistic" chaps for leg protection when operating chain saws. We continued to assist DCD
with sampling Tukwila Pond for water quality data. The quarter was also full of training for the
department. We helped coordinate and participated in the Zone 3 drills; Strike Team/Taskforce training
was delivered to all department members; a "Technical Report Writing" class was provided for all
department personnel. Department personnel also taught NIMS ICS 100 and 200 to city personnel.
Chief officers attended training in Auburn that was very appropriate. All uniform personnel received
'Titer" tests for Hepatitis B immunity. We also conducted a successful battalion chief test that resulted in
a list of six candidates.

POLICE DEPARTMENT
2006 YEAR END SUMMARY
2006 was a year of stabilization and growth. Our available staffing increased; we improved our
accreditation process, and certified our agency for NIMS (National Incident Management System).
Due to improved staffing levels, some of our specialty assignments were backfilled. For example, our
TAC Team was fully staffed by the end of the year. In addition, we absorbed the long-term loss of one
officer due to military activation. As we move into the future, we will attempt to fill available positions as
soon as possible with high quality individuals.

4th QUARTER SIGNIFICANT ISSUES
The 4th quarter was filled with a variety of events all across the Police Department. Our TAC Team
