MISCELLANEOUS Next Scheduled Meeting: Monday, October 15, 2007 The City of Tukwila strives to accommodate individuals with disabilities. Please contact the City Clerk's Office at 206 433 -1800 for assistance. City of Tukwila 6200 Southcenter Boulevard. Tukwila, Washington 98188 Steven M. Mullet, Mayor TO: Mayor Mullet Finance and Safety Committee ~ FROM: Christy O'Flaherty, Deputy City Clerk DATE: September 27, 2007 SUBJECT: BUSINESS LICENSE FEE INCREASE ISSUE Amendment of the City's current business license ordinance to modify the fee schedule. BACKGROUND The City's current business license fees were established by Ordinance #1196, passed in 1980. The business license fees are charged annually (due January 1 of each year) and are based on the number of employees (both full and part-time) at the Tukwila location as follows: 0-5 employees 6-100 employees 101 and above $50.00 per year $100.00 per year $200.00 per year In the 27 years since the current business license fees were adopted, the City has experienced growth due to both annexations (in 1989-90's) and overall City-wide development. In 1988 Tukwila had 1,168 businesses with 20,565 employees; at year-end 2006, there were 2,354 businesses in the City with 44,087 employees. As the number of businesses and employees entering the City has doubled during this time period, resources in regard to Police, Fire, and Public Works infrastructure and services have also been increased and enhanced. Additionally, the City does not assess a Business and Occupations Tax on companies doing business in Tukwila. DISCUSSION A thorough analysis of the current rate structure was undertaken to assess the most reasonable breakpoints in employee numbers to establish a new fee structure. The results demonstrate the need for increased fee categories beyond the three shown above to provide greater balance and equity. There has been concern over the years that the 6 to 100 employee category, in particular, is too broad and seemingly unbalanced; a company with 6 employees - or a small business - is paying the same fee as a larger establishment with 100 employees. Efforts were made to create additional categories with greater balance, while being attentive to not over- impacting businesses by assessing significant fee increases. A new category for home occupations was created to retain the fee of $50.00 per year currently being charged to those businesses. There are currently 161 businesses operated from Tukwila residences with an average of one employee per business. Home occupations have a variety of limitations, based on their zoning, and it was determined that $50.00 was an equitable fee. The other goal in reviewing fee breakpoints was to assure that no business in the City would be paying more than twice their current fee. For example, if a business currently pays $100 annually for a business license, the new fee would not be any more than $200 under the proposed fee schedule. Additionally, a comparison of business license rates for local area cities (Attachment A) was undertaken; Tukwila's proposed fee schedule was found to be in line with the others. Following is a synopsis of the current fee structure, proposed changes, and percentage increase impacts.

This revenue increase may create the possibility of hiring an additional staff person in the City Clerk's Office. There have been no increases in staff in the Clerk's Office in the past 17 years, and this will be a topic during budget discussions. RECOMMENDATION Forward the proposed ordinance amending the business license fee structure to the October 8. 2007 Committee of the Whole Meeting and to the October 15. 2007 Regular Meeting for possible adoption.

Therefore, the dissolve of the 6300 Building (DCD) change fund is appropriate at this time. (2) As per the Court Administrator's request on 08/24/2007, it is the Municipal Court's desire to discontinue the practice of disbursing witness fees in cash from an imprest fund. The proposed processing of future witness fees will be for the Court and its designated staff to request the issuance of claims checks through the Finance Department's accounts payable system. Once the City approves to dissolve the 6300 Building (DCD) change fund and the Municipal Court's petty cash /witness fee fund through the repeal of Resolution No. 1582 —these will be replenished to their current levels, verified and returned to the General Fund cash balance sheet accounts, respectively. 6200 Southcenter Boulevard Tukwila, Washington 98188 -2544 Phone: (206) 433 -1838 Fax: (206) 433 -1833 Email: kfuhrer@ci.tukwila.wa.us DRAFT A RESOLUTION OF TIlE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF TUKV>'ILA, WASHINGTON, DISSOLVING TIlE 6300 BUILDING (DCD) CHANGE FUND AND TIlE :1\.1UNICIP AL COURT PETTY CASH FUl\TJ)i AND REPEALING RESOLUTION NO. 1582.

Bell, Amy As we discussed a few weeks ago, I am concerned with witnesses being paid from a cash fund housed at the Court. I would like to discontinue the practice of paying witness fees in cash from an imprest account. I think it is in the best interest of the Court if we begin processing witness fees in the same manner jury fees are paid: check processed through accounts payable. To accommodate this, the first item if business is to get the witness fee imprest fund deposited with the City (this is your area of expertise - just let me know what I need to do). I drafted the attached procedure for the Court's use. Please review it and feel free to make any changes you deem necessary in order for this to be a process both Departments can follow. As soon as your team is on board, let me know and I will bring the $100.00 over to whomever you select to receive it. Thank you for working with me on this issue.

To accommodate this effort, the procedure to pay the $10.00 witness fee will be as follows: o Court will issue the subpoena to the witness; o Witness will appear for the hearing; o The Prosecutor will sign the subpoena form to substantiate the appearance of the witness by signing off on the form; o The Witness will bring the form to the Court counter; o Court will verify witness address when they come to counter. o Witness is to initial next to the address listed on the subpoena indicating it is their current address. If the address has changed, the new address is to be written next to the incorrect address and then initialed by the witness. o Inform witness payment should be processed in approximately 10 business days; o Forward to Lead Clerk or Court Administrator for payment authorization; o Lead Clerk or Court Administrator will Sign-off and date at the bottom of the form; o Make a copy for the Court's account record; o Lead Clerk or Court Administrator will submit request to pay witness fee supported by a completed subpoena form to Accounts Payable Section for processing; City of Tukwila Washington Resolution No. 1582 A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF TUKWILA, WASHINGTON, DELETING THE VNET PEITY CASH AND POLICE INVESTIGATION FUNDS, AND REPEALING RESOLUTION NO. 1555.

Fuhrer, Finance Director #' Date: September 26, 2007 Subject: CANCELLATION OF ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE The annual proposed resolution totaling $14,884.34 reflects amounts deemed uncollectible. The items listed have been through the City's collection program and have not been successfully resolved. Although we are writing them off the "official" City books, these amounts will still be subject to collection. These items include: False Alarms Account total of $521.50, NSF Checks Account total of $560.00 and all other Miscellaneous Billing Account total of $13,802.84. The funds affected will be properly adjusted. The process for tracking accounts receivable is quite thorough. The steps below are followed prior to the attached write-off resolution: . Invoice is sent to recipient by the Finance Department, payable in 30 days. . Second notice is then sent specifying due date before receivable is forwarded to collection agency. . Collection agency sends a series of three letters for the original amount due, with the final letter advising that legal action will be taken if payment is not made. If there is no response from debtor after the letter series, the debt is then reported to the National Credit Bureaus. . Collection agency then pursues legal action after the debtor is given a final opportunity to dispute the claim. This includes attaching checking accounts, garnishments, lawsuits and other legal methods. The items on the proposed resolution reflect those that have been through the process above and receivables are still due with the likelihood of collection being very low. We do collect amounts after write-offs, but very seldom. The City cannot revoke or deny a business license for non-payment of an accounts receivable claim.

Committee Chair Haggerton asked for basic, yet informative reports that could be created without placing significant hardship (time or financial) on Police staff. At the Monday, October 1, Finance and Safety Committee meeting Ms. Cook will present a sample of the information that we discussed based on Tukwila police activity for the second quarter of 2007. This information will include: . Calls for Service . Uniform Crime Reports Part 1 Crimes . Arrest Information Ms. Cook will also bring the quarterly report she submits to the Mayor's Office as well as samples of the Police Department's Press Log. I believe you will find the above information to be a balance of improved information sharing as well as reasonable expenditure of staff time. If at s:>me point, Council requeS:s the availability of more detailed, neighborhood-level day-to- day data, Ms Cook can recommend an automated law enforcement reporting and s:atis:ical s:>ftware product. This product would provide public access to certain information as well as police department functionality. An initial and annual uS3ge fee would be required for implementation of this product.
