APPROVAL OF SUMMARY
Council member Kochmar moved to approve the August 14 meeting minutes as written, Deputy Mayor
Ferrell seconded. Motion passed.
BUSINESS ITEMS
Federal Wav Securitv System - Award Bid for Intrusion Detection System
Ms. Sanders provided the background information. Additional funds for a security system were requested in the
carry forward budget. A budget of $ 160,000 was established for the security system for the Federal Way
Community Center. A request for proposal was done. Three proposals were submitted, and none of them came in
within budget. The decision was made to award only the Intrusion Detection System at this time. The proposal for
the video monitoring will be redesigned, by reducing the number of cameras; this should reduce the price, and bring
them within budget. Staff is recommending RFI Communications & Security Systems. The committee encouraged
staff to bring this back to them if it feels like there is an increased need of additional monitoring or a full-time staff
person that would monitor the facility. Council member Kochmar moved to approve option 1; Award the bid to
RFI Communications & Security Systems. Mayor Ferrell seconded. Motion passed.
2007-PSE Conservation Grant
Mr. Ikerd provided the background information. The City is working with three contractors to make HV AC
improvements to City Hall. The HV AC redesign will allow two primary roof top units to shut down during the night,
and not operate 24/7. Because of the projected reduction in energy usage, PSE will be giving us $59,084.00 in the
form of a grant. Deputy Mayor Ferrell moved to forward the grant acceptance to full Council on September 18
for approval. Council member Kochmar seconded. Motion passed.
Courtroom Pew Replacement
Mr. Ikerd provided the background information. All three courtrooms have used pews. The pews in courtrooms one
and two are falling apart. They are separating and creating a hazard. The Municipal Court received carry forward
money to replace the pews. A request for quote was sent to three vendors. Sauder Manufacturing was the most
responsive bidder. Council Member Kochmar moved to authorize the replacement of Courtroom pews and to
award a contract to Sauder in the amount of $37,836.01 to provide and install replacement pews, and
authorize the City Manager to execute. Deputy Mayor Ferrell seconded. Motion Passed.
PARKS, RECREATION, & PUBLIC SAFETY COUNCIL COMMITTEE
Tuesday September 11, 2007 Summary
Page 2
Arts and Conference Center Feasibilitv Study
Me Beets provided the background information. A grass roots group has been meeting for several months to discuss
new performance space within the City of Federal Way. The Council has authorized up to $80,000 for consulting
work to take a look at the feasibility of a new performance center. There was a three part focus: the feasibility of a
new performance center, the future of the Knutzen Family Theatre, and the Dumas Bay Conference Centre. A
request for proposal was sent out, and seven proposals were received. There were seven people on the interview
panel. Four of the respondents were interviewed. Interviews were held at the Dumas Bay Centre. The interview
process consisted of a presentation by the consulting firm, and then there was a structured interview. A rating matrix
was developed for their materials, and their verbal presentations. The panel made a recommendation that two of the
consulting firms should move forward. Those firms are Charles H. Johnson, President of Johnson Consulting, and
John F. Stevens, CEO, ArtsMarket, Inc. They are going with two consultants in case one of them drops out, and it
also will help when it comes time to negotiate a consulting agreement. Deputy Mayor Ferrell moved to forward
the item to Council at their September 18th meeting to authorize the City Manager to enter into negotiation
and execute the resulting agreement with either of the firms recommended. Council member Kochmar
seconded. Motion passed.
Proposed Ordinance to Prohibit the Furnishing: of Aerosol Paint Cans, Paint Sticks and Broad-Tipped
Markers to Minors and Refine the Definition of Graffiti Tools
Ms. Snell provided the background information. A substantial amount of people that have been caught by the police
that are involved in graffiti are minors. This gives the police the power to take these items away from them. This
also restricts the access of these items to minors. The Committee is concerned with the term broad tip marker. Chief
Wilson stated that graffiti is done with both the broad tip marker and spray paint. Deputy Mayor Ferrell stated that
there needs to be language in the Ordinance that would make it clear that we are not criminalizing the possession of
markers. Council member Kochmar moved to table the proposed Ordinance for staff to revise, prohibiting
minors possessing broad tipped markers only "under circumstances demonstrating an intent to commit
graffiti". Return to committee on October 8, 2007 with modifications. Deputy Mayor Ferrell seconded,
motion passed.
Proposed Ordinance to Add a new Section to Chapter 1. Article III of the Federal Way City Code (FWCC) to
Authorize Code Enforcement to Issue Civil Infractions for Code Violations
Ms. Snell provided the background information. This civil infraction is intended solely as a code enforcement tool.
This focuses on development regulations. The city currently has four tools for dealing with civil violations. This
proposed Ordinance grants enforcement officers the authority to issue civil infractions for civil violations as an
alternative to the four code enforcement tools currently in place. This is the most efficient way to deal with code
violations. Compliance under civil infractions is quicker than Notice of Violation and Order to Correct. The burden
of proof is challenging with misdemeanor violations. Deputy Mayor Ferrell is not clear how the criminality codes
mesh with this Ordinance. After discussion, the committee recommended option 2. Deputy Mayor Ferrell moved
to approve option 2, which is to suggest modifications to the proposed Ordinance and provide direction to
staff. Council member Kochmar seconded, motion passed. This will be forwarded to the LUTC September
17,2007 meeting. Modification proposed: FWCC 1-25 to add subsection (d) "This section shall not preclude
criminal prosecution under FWCC 1-13".
The committee requested that Neal Beets provide an update on the existing state law, where fmes have been
assessed, but not collected, and whether or not a lien could be put against the property.

STAFF REpORT By: TIM DICKINSON
DEPT: Parks, Rec & Cult Services
This project proposes to integrate all five Sports fields lighting systems for better efficiency. Those fields are
Celebration, Steel Lake AnnexlKarlGrosch, Sacajawea, Saghalie and Lakota.
This system will allow any user group, with prior approval, to remotely turn the lights on or off at any park or
individual field. This will reduce the amount of times that lights are left on, due to cancelled tournaments,
rainouts or delays. This will also reduce the need for overtime callouts due to a mistake on the light schedule in
which a team is scheduled to play and the lights are not on. The user group would use a cell phone and activate
the system on there own. Cell phone authorization will be lirnited to ensure security. This system can also be
used for future upgrades, such as remotely locking restroom doors at night.
The specifications for this system were based off of a system that the City of SeaTac installed. The
specifications will include control equipment, communication equipment and customer support services required.
Cost Estimate:
Complete system for all five parks with 5year parts/2year Labor warranty
$39,000
Contingency for possible interior work inside buildings to make room
for system and/or unforeseen additional work that may be needed.
$3,000
Council approved in the 2007-2008 CIP budget for this project
$42,000
Options: 1. Give authorization to bid for a Remote Lighting Control System for sports fields
2. Do not give authorization to bid for a Remote Lighting Control System for sports fields.

Brian J. Wilson, Chief of Police
SUBJECT: Maintenance and Labor Agreement for emergency equipment installation and repair
In early 2006, the police department began searching for a vendor that could provide services to
install and repair aftermarket police emergency equipment. In May 2006, we began using Systems
for Public Safety, Inc. (S.P.S.) based in Lakewood Washington. Since then we have been extremely
pleased with the level of customer service, and the quality of services provided by this vendor.
Locally (Puget Sound area) there are only three major vendors capable of providing this type of
service on the scale that we would need based on our department size: Systems for Public Safety,
FCI, and Auto Editions.
Since May 2006, S.P .S. has completed installations on over half of our current fleet. They have also
completed all necessary repairs to aftermarket emergency equipment to older fleet vehicles. When
S.P.S. built vehicles return to the shop for repair, the majority of time it is due to product failure
rather than installation error. S.P .S. is located much closer to City Hall than the other two vendors.
Generally our volunteers take at least one car to his shop per day-making location a very important
factor.
Based on services provided and the location of each of the vendors, sole source was authorized by
Assistant City Manager Iwen Wang.

Sole Source Selection for Emergency Equipment Installation and Repair
In early 2006, the police department began searching for a vendor that could provide services to install and repair
aftermarket police emergency equipment. In May 2006, we began using Systems for Public Safety, Inc. (S.P.S.)
based in Lakewood Washington. Since then we have been extremely pleased with the level of customer service,
and the quality of services provided by this vendor.
Locally (Puget Sound area) there are only: three major vendors capable of providing this type of service on the
scale that we would need based on our department size: Systems for Public Safety, FC!, and Auto Editions.
Description of vendors:
Systems for Public Safety:
S.P.S. is located in Lakewood-l 7 miles from City Hall. They provide installation and repair services to several
agencies in Washington State (Lakewood, Puyallup, Ft. Lewis PD, DuPont, Steilacoom, Ruston, Bremerton,
Sequim, and Central Washington University just to name' a few). They are a full service shop that enforces a
strict background policy with their employees. In addition to their shop, S.P.S. will provide mobile service
allowing us to address specific projects here at City Hall.
Since May 2006, S.P.S. has completed installations on over half of our current fleet. They have also completed
all necessary repairs to aftermarket emergency equipment to older fleet vehicles. When S.P.S. built vehicles
return to the shop for repair, the majority of time it is due to product failure rather than installation error.
Generally our volunteers take at least one car to his shop per day-making location a very important factor.
S.P.S. has developed a streamlined process for completing new vehicle installs. They are able to build a standard
patrol car in two days (industry standard is a week) while maintaining strict quality control.
S.P.S. bills on a flat rate for new vehicle installations ($1950.00). Unlike previous vendors we have used this
install rate is fixed so we can easily budget for years to come.
L-~
10f2
FCI:
Fcr is located in North Bend--40 miles from City Hall. They provide installation and repair services to several
agencies in Washington State. Fcr is capable of providing the necessary service, however due to their location it
is very time consuming to drive the vehicles to the shop.
Auto Editions:
Auto Editions is located in Lacey-33 miles from City Hall. They are a new company in Washington, however
have been in business for several years in Oregon. They may be capable of providing the level of service
necessary to service our size of fleet, however due to their location it is very time consuming to drive the vehicles
to the shop.
Evaluation and Recommendation:
The office ofthe Quartermaster reviewed all three options. It was determined that the only shop really capable of
continuing to provide the necessary service to our fleet is S.P.S. They have built well over half of our current
police vehicle fleet. They have gone to great lengths to standardize each build-making installs and repairs much
simpler.
Having a large fleet that is growing by the year requires FWPD to have a reliable and dedicated vendor that is
located nearby. The only vendor that meets these requirements is Systems for Public Safety, Inc..

MEMORANDUM
DATE: OCTOBER 9, 2007
TO: PARKS, RECREATION, HUMAN SERVICES & PUBLIC SAFETY COMMITTEE
FROM: JENNIFER SNELL, CITY STAFF ATTORNEY
SUBJECT: PROPOSED ORDINANCE TO PROHIBIT MINORS' POSSESSSION OF CER~AIN GRAFFITI TOOLS AND
REFINE THE DEFINITION OF GRAFFITI TOOLS.
This matter came before the Committee on September 11, 2007, at which time the proposed Ordinance
was drafted to prohibit minors from possessing broad-tipped marker pens and aerosol spray paint under
any circumstances, unless accompanied by a responsible adult. The Committee recommended tabling the
matter until the next meeting for staff to modify the proposed Ordinance so that minors would not be
absolutely prohibited from possessing broad-tipped markers. The existing Federal Way City Code makes
it a crime for any person, regardless of the person's age, to possess a marker pen "under circumstances
demonstrating intent to commit graffiti" which was the Committee's direction regarding minors.
The proposed Ordinance would amend the term "marker pen" to "broad-tipped marker pen" and further
define the term "broad-tipped marker pen" to include the diameter of the marker and indelible nature as
part of the definition. Additionally, the proposed Ordinance would prohibit minors from possessing
aerosol spray paint unless accompanied by a responsible adult or with the permission of the owner of the
property upon which the minor is discovered to be in possession of aerosol spray paint.
The cities of Tacoma and Yakima have similar ordinances that make it a crime for minors to be in
possession of graffiti implements regardless of intent. The Tacoma ordinance defines a broad-tipped
marker to be four millimeters or larger in diameter. The Yakima ordinance defines a broad-tipped marker
to be one-quarter of an inch or larger in diameter.
A substantial amount of graffiti in the City is perpetrated by persons under the age of eighteen.
Prohibiting minors from possessing items most commonly used for graffiti would significantly impede
access to those items and likely reduce graffiti. Refining the definition of graffiti tools to clarify certain
definitions should aid in the prosecution of these crimes and put the public on notice of what items are
restricted.
Any changes to the proposed Ordinance since the September 11,2007 meeting indicated by double-
underline.

SUBJECT: PROPOSED JUVENILE CURFEW ORDINANCE
Juvenile curfew ordinances have long been used to protect and control juveniles at night. The
proposed Juvenile Curfew Ordinance is closely aligned with Tacoma and Auburn ordinances,
which specify the criteria for any violation and provide broad exceptions, as required by the
courts, for the juvenile to be out past the curfew.
State law specifies that a curfew violation must be limited to a civil infraction and authorizes the
officer to contact the juvenile for safety or protection as well as take the juvenile into custody. If
the juvenile is taken into custody, state also identifies the state and/or county agencies that can
accept the juvenile.
The proposed ordinance provides:
1. The curfew hours are 12:01 a.m. to 6:00 a.m. every day. This is consistent with the
hours in Tacoma and Auburn.
2. The police officer may contact a juvenile and ask questions to determine whether the
juvenile has permission or other valid reason to be out during curfew. If not, the
officer will contact the parents, and may issue a civil infraction to the juvenile unless
juvenile court has exclusive jurisdiction.
3. A parent may need to pick up the juvenile after being contacted by the officer. If the
parent refuses, he/she may be issued a civil infraction.
4. The monetary penalty for the first civil infraction IS $100, $200 for the second
infraction and $300 for each subsequent infraction.
\1- 2-
5. The officer has the discretion to take the juvenile into custody when safety if
determined necessary and transport himlher home, to a place authorized by the
parents, or to local and/or state agencies depending upon the circumstances.
6. A review of the juvenile curfew along with the crime statistics will occur every three
years to ensure that the curfew continuing to be necessary and effective.
