H. BUSINESS AGENDA
A. Contract with Cascade Land Conservancv
Staff is seeking full Council approval to enter into a contract for services with Cascade Land
Conservancy in amount not to exceed $30,000. This contract will provide support with project and
volunteer management, steering committee leadership, fundraising and work with Tribal coordination in
relation to the development of Duwamish Riverbend Hill.
Staff distributed an updated copy of the contract for services. One change was made to Section 9:
Termination. Originally this section stated that the contract could be terminated by the City. The change
