Guests: Keith Livingston, Arts Commission, Mike Park and Hee Jung Lee, Federal way Korean Association
Chair Honda called the meeting to order at 5:31p.m.
Public Comment: Keith Livingston, spoke in favor of moving the Ceremonial Tree Lighting event to the Federal
Way Community Center (FWCC). He stated the event would be far more personal and be more of a seasonal event.
Arts Commissioner Cindy Piennett submitted written comments for Chair Honda to read into the record. She stated
that the Tree Lighting event is not on the Arts Commission work plan, and they do not have a budget to cover the
expenses. She had two questions: 1) Why is the Arts Commission being asked to sponsor and facilitate the event?
Perhaps the Parks & Recreation Department could sponsor the event. 2) Why is the event held at the Commons
Mall? The FWCC would be a more appropriate facility for the event.
Commission Comment: None.
APPROVAL OF MINUTES
Committee member Burbidge moved to approve the August committee minutes as written. Committee member
Maloney seconded. Motion passed.
BUSINESS ITEMS
BPA Trail Korean Community Garden — Discussion Only
Mr. Miller stated the Federal Way Korean Association is requesting to use property on the BPA Trail, north of the
Aquatic Center. Hee Jung Lee and Mike Park from the Federal Way Korean Association were in attendance to make
a presentation. The area is approximately 4 acres and will be split up into phases. Mr. Park stated that this idea
developed about two years ago. Mr. Park stated that they were seeking Council approval before they moved any
further on the project. Concerns about the area are: power, water and parking. Mr. Park stated that the Korean
Association is not asking for any financial contribution from the city. They are looking at grant opportunities. The
deadline for the grants is October/November for next year's budget. Hee Jung Lee added that there are other
organizations that are working on this project. Once the City Council approves the proposal, they will be able to
develop more of a firm plan and start to move forward. Committee member Maloney asked Ms. Richardson if the
city would be required to offer the opportunity for a community garden to other non -profit organizations. Ms.
Richardson answered that this is a question that needs to be looked at. The city has contracts with other non - profits
to use city facilities. She would like to review the land use issues. Mr. Park asked Chair Honda what her plan is
with this topic. She answered that she would like to have the City Attorney review the legalities. The Committee as a
whole likes the idea and would like to see it move forward but there are issues that need to be discussed and
reviewed. There is a concern that other non - profit groups may want to do some development on City property and it
may not be in -line with what the city wants, and they would not be able to stop it. A policy on the use of public
property for parks and open space needs to be developed.
Valley Com 10 -Digit Non - Emergency Number — Information Only
Chief Wilson stated that through the E911 system, there has been the need for a non - emergency number, for people
to call for non - emergency situations. The Valley Com Operations Board looked at several different options. The
best option was to have an individual number assigned to each City. This number will go directly to a call receiver,
if the call receiver deems that the call is an emergency, they can make that decision and forward to 911. The
effective date is September 16, 2013, and the number is 253- 835 -2121.

Application Process for City Commissions and Boards
Ms. Richardson reported that are inconsistencies in the qualifications for Boards and Commissions. The committee
reviewed the Ethics Board, Diversity Commission, the application form and criminal background checks. After
discussion it was decided to add the following qualifications to the Ethics Board: Reside within the City and have a
preferred experience/background in ethics, and to add removal by council action. Proposed change to the Diversity
Commission: Must reside within the City. Proposed change to the application form: Remove the address, employer
and hobbies /interests, and add the following information: CDBG Loan Advisory Review Committee to list of
Committees, E -mail and phone number, confirmation that applicant meets the requirements, ability to attend
activities listed on Board/Committee's Work Plan to be identified by the Chair or Representative of the committee,
where to submit application, and notice that the application and attachments are subject to public disclosure. The
following interview questions will be answered in writing and submitted with their application: 1) Why do you want
to serve on this Board/Commission 2) What are your prior experiences in this area 3) How do you see your role as a
Board Member /Commissioner 4) Is there anything in your past or recent activities that would be perceived as an
embarrassment. Criminal History was also discussed. Request for criminal history must be related to employment or
what the person will be doing. The information cannot be redistributed. After discussing the request for criminal
history, it was decided that adding the question regarding past or recent activities perceived as an embarrassment
would give them enough information. The Youth Commission and number of voting members will be discussed at
the October Committee meeting. Committee member Burbidge moved to forward the modified direction for
the application process to the September 17, 2013 City Council meeting under Council Business for discussion
and action. Committee member Maloney seconded. Motion passed.
Committee member Burbidge moved to amend the agenda and add Holiday Tree Lighting as item E to the
agenda. Committee member Maloney seconded. Motion passed.
Holiday Tree Lighting
Chair Honda provided the background information. She stated that three years ago she attended the City Council
Retreat. Then Council member Dovey said that he would like a tree lighting ceremony. The Arts Commission was
given the task of planning and organizing the event. The plan was to have it at the Federal Way Community Center
(FWCC). There were four trees at the FWCC that could be lit. The Mayor and the Council decided they wanted it
downtown at the Commons Mall. This item was brought up at the September Arts Commission meeting. Chair
Honda reported that several members of the Arts Commission would like it moved to the FWCC. The Mayor has
said he would like it downtown at the Mall with a bigger tree. The Arts Commission is willing to do this event, but
they would like help from other commissions. Mr. Roe stated that he had a recent conversation with the Mayor and
he seemed to be flexible on location. Discussion was held regarding holding the event at the FWCC, and the
different activities that could be offered along with the tree lighting. Chair Honda stated that it is almost October, so
there is not much time to do a lot of new ideas. Mr. Roe added that a realistic approach would be to focus on a good
solid event and then grow the event from there. Discussion was held on whether or not this should move on to the
Council Business or Consent agenda. It was decided to place it on Council Business so Council can discuss it as a
whole, and the public will be aware of the possible change. Committee member Maloney moved to add the Tree
Lighting Ceremony on Council Business at the Council Meeting on September 17, 2013. Committee member
Burbidge seconded. Motion passed.

History: Following a competitive bid process, JGM Technical Services entered into an "On Call" Electrical
Agreement, February 2012. This service provides electrical repairs and minor improvements. The Department
experienced a high amount of unexpected service calls during the first two years of this agreement; including
wire theft, and there is a need to increase the amount of compensation and while in this process extend the term
for one more year. By mutual agreement, we seek authorization to extend their term for an additional year
through 2015 at the same 2012 rate and increase the compensation by $40,000.00, for a grand total contract value
of $100,000.00. Funding for this service is covered through the Facilities and Park Operations accounts.
Options Considered:
1. Approve a first amendment to the JGM Technical Services Agreement by extending their term an
additional year and increase the compensation by $40,000.00, for a contract total not to exceed $100,000
and authorize the Mayor to execute said amendment to the full Council October 15, 2013 consent agenda

Action Plan for Program Year 2014?

STAFF REPORT BY: Jay Bennett, Community Services Manager DEPT: Community & Economic
Development Services
Attachments: 2014 Community Development Block Grant Annual Action Plan
Background
HUD's Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) program reporting format is called the Consolidated
Plan. The Consolidated Plan has two components; the five -year Strategic Plan (January 1, 2012 to December 31,
2016) and the Annual Action Plan (AAP). The five -year Strategic Plan is the overall framework of goals for the
CDBG program. The Annual Plan outlines specific programs to be implemented that reflect the five -year goals.
Each year, the City Council adopts the Annual Action Plan for CDBG funding. The plan needs to be adopted and
submitted to HUD on November 15, 2013 in order for the City to qualify for CDBG funding the next year.
After proper public notice, the Human Services Commission solicited public comment on community needs and
held a public hearing at their meeting on August 20, 2013. Public Notice for comment on the Annual Action Plan
was advertised on August 30, 2013. The Human Services Commission reviewed the draft PY 2014 AAP at their
regularly scheduled meeting on September 16, 2013 and then held a public hearing on September 3 d to take
further comment on the activities targeted to address priority needs in the areas of community development,
housing and public services, which are integrated into this Action Plan.
As of this date, the City has not yet received HUD confirmation of funding levels for the next program year
because the federal budget has not yet been approved. The PY 2014 AAP budget assumes CDBG funding at the
same equivalent level as PY 2012.The plan complies with the specified format and addresses the HUD required
subject matters.
The PY 2014 Action Plan budget includes:

Past Performance
The City of Federal Way continually strives to improve the performance of its operations and those of
its funded agencies. In 2013, the Community Services Division will have invested over $ 750,000 in the
community to meet the goals and objectives outlined in the 2012 -2016 Consolidated Plan. CDBG funds
were primarily targeted toward affordable housing, economic development and provision of basic needs
services. For a more detailed summary of the City's evaluation of past performance, previous
Consolidated Annual Performance and Evaluation Reports (CAPER) can be viewed on the City's website at
www.cityoffederalway.com.
Action Plan Required Elements:
Geographic Distribution / Allocation Priorities:
2. Describe the geographic areas of the jurisdiction (including areas of low income: families and /or racial /minority concentration) in
which assistance will be directed during the next year. Where appropriate, the jurisdiction should estimate the percentage of
funds the jurisdiction plans to dedicate to target areas.
3. Describe the basis for allocating investments geographically within the jurisdiction (or within the EMSA for HOPWA)
(91.215(a)(1)) during the next year and the rationale for assigning the priorities.
4. Describe actions that will take place during the next year to address obstacles.
2014 Action Plan General Questions response:
Geographic Area
Most of the limited amount of CDBG funds are available city-.wide (except for the small amount of
remaining NSP3 funds invested into the Greater West Way Neighborhood, and the planning work in a
potential NRSA areas), thus the investment will reach a concentration of the lowest- income persons in the
city. Please refer to Attachment C of this Action Plan to view maps that distinguish the low /mod income
areas of the City.
The Community Development Division funded activities are available community wide to residents of all
parts of Federal Way. Allocations are typically used to address high - priority needs, as identified in this
plan, on a citywide basis for a project primarily benefiting low- and moderate - income households.
The following section describes the customized activities that focus on a particular Neighborhood area.
Understanding demographic and economic trends is important to developing a housing and community
development strategy. The information presented in this section are key indicators (from the 2010 Census)
relating to population and household composition and growth, economic conditions, poverty, and race and
ethnicity in the City of Federal Way.

Allocation Priorities

portion of its PY 2014 funds to activities which have the potential of creating jobs /expanding business
opportunities, preserving existing housing stock and providing funds for safety net services.
20
The City has determined that its use of CDBG entitlement funds for the purpose of determining compliance
with the ACT's 70% rule shall be a one (1) program year beginning January 1, 2014 and ending December
31, 2014. The City's CDBG program year is the same as the City's Fiscal Year (FY). In PY 2014, 100% of the
available funds will be allocated to provide assistance to persons who are low -and moderate - income.
Obstacles to Meeting the Needs
To address underserved needs, the City of Federal Way will continue to work with partner funders
and agencies to work on needs that are not being met. The City will continue to look for other
sources of funds and work with others to utilize their dollars in ways to meet these needs. The
Community Services staff is involved in a number of collaborative committees and teams that identify
and address issues throughout the city and the region.
Given the limited amount of CDBG and other grant funding available, "however, this will be a challenge.
In 2014, it will be even more of an issue due to cuts that are anticipated in CDBG funding.

2014 Action Plan Specific Objectives response:
In 2014, the City will focus on the following objectives in the housing area:
• Improve the quality of the existing owner - occupied housing stock by providing CDBG funds
for emergency housing repair projects as well as support community stability and neighborhood
revitalization efforts.
• Expand the number of affordable rental units for three (3) lower income, disabled individuals.

activities it will undertake during the next year to encourage public housing residents to become more involved in
management and participate in homeownership.
27. If the public housing agency is designated as "troubled" by HUD or otherwise is performing poorly, the jurisdiction
shall describe the manner in which it will provide financial or other assistance in improving its operations to remove
such designation during the next year.
2014 Action Plan Public Housing Strategy response:
Community Development Block Grant funding requires grants recipients to partner with other
agencies that receive federal funds designed to serve LMI populations. In King County, public
housing is provided through the King County Housing Authority (KCHA), which provides critical
low- income housing and redevelopment resources to the City's residents and neighborhoods. The
KCHA is an independent public agency with a dedicated funding stream for housing choice
vouchers and low- income public housing from the Department of Housing and Urban
Development. It also is a body that has the powers of public financing and bonding.
The staffs of the City and KCHA have identified a major activity for 2014:
a) Partnership in discerning and prioritizing projects that address resident needs in a
Neighborhood Revitalization Strategy Area.
The Authority places a high priority on developing special programs to reduce the turn -over
time for units, improve the long- term maintenance program, and develop programs and
services within each of the major housing complexes to serve the social, economic, recreational,
and educational needs of its residents.
The KCHA is governed by a Board of Directors. KCHA encourages resident participation and
notices their meetings to residents and to the community at large, has resident representation on
the subcommittees, and holds occasional hearings to gauge the needs and goals of its
participants.
31
The KCHA has outlined other major housing initiatives in its own panning documents available on
its website and by request (www.kcha.ora). The KCHA has not been designated as "troubled" by
HUD.
Antipoverty Strategy
29. Briefly describe the actions that will take place during the next year to reduce the number of poverty level families
(as defined by the Office of Management and Budget and revised annually), taking into consideration factors over which
the jurisdiction has control.
2014 Action Plan Antipoverty Strategy response:
The Antipoverty Strategy of the City is to promote accessibility and availability of employment,
education, health care and family support services to lower- income households to help them
develop greater household financial independence and to promote neighborhood involvement,
steps which will eventually lead to the reduction of poverty throughout the City.
The City has adopted five major strategies to achieve these goals of poverty
reduction:
1. Provide information about resources to poverty -level households.
2. Continue housing assistance programs.
3. Involve neighborhoods in the City's processes and revitalization efforts.
4. Increase economic development and employment training opportunities.
5. Continue collaborative efforts between local governments, non - profits, schools and
businesses.
In 2014, the City will continue efforts begun earlier to work closely with residents, owners and
community groups to address some of the emerging revitalization issues in the northeast area
of the City, as well as continue to support revitalization efforts in the West Way area. These
efforts will continue to:
• Assess and refine the City's efforts to support resident involvement and empowerment
in the community.
• Coordinate programs and services with other funders, agencies, businesses, and
neighborhood organizations.
The City's efforts will assist in reducing poverty by addressing emerging neighborhood needs.
These efforts will bring additional services and opportunities to residents that may have been
previously underserved or isolated.
Barriers to Affordable Housing
30. Describe the actions that will take place during the next year to remove barriers to
affordable housing.
31. Describe the actions that will take place during the next year to foster and maintain
affordable housing.
2014 Action Plan Barriers to Affordable Housing response:
The Community Services Division will continue to assist the housing partners in developing
32
strategies to remove barriers to affordable housing. The staff will continue to review proposed
funding of affordable housing projects.
The Community Services Division will work collaboratively with regional partners to share
effective strategies that other communities and agencies have employed to fulfill this
obligation.
The Community Services Division will work together with affordable housing partners in our
community to host a fair housing seminar in 2014. We will distribute specific information to
Federal Way property owners on implementation strategies to reduce barriers to affordable
housing accordingly.
The Division staff will review the vacancy rates on the ability of lower income individuals to locate
housing. The Division will also review changes in State law that have made it difficult for lower
income individuals to secure affordable housing and work to remove these barriers so
households have a greater opportunity for affordable housing.
Lead -based Paint
32. Describe the actions that will take place during the next year to evaluate and reduce the number of housing units
containing lead -based paint hazards in order to increase the inventory of lead -safe housing available to extremely low -
income, low - income, and moderate- income families, and how the plan for the reduction of lead -based hazards is related to
the extent of lead poisoning and hazards.
2014 Action Plan Lead -based Paint response:
The City of Federal Way works to reduce lead -based paint hazards by requiring subrecipients to
comply with the Lead -Based Paint requirements set forth in 24 CFR Part 35. This includes
meeting the requirements for notification, identification and stabilization of deteriorated paint,
identification and control of lead based paint hazards, and identification and abatement of lead -
based paint hazards. The Protect Your Family from Lead in Your Home pamphlet developed by
the EPA, HUD and the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission is also distributed
The Seattle /King County Public Health provides community education programs. Information
about lead is incorporated into the nutritional counseling conducted at the WIC (Women,
Infants and Children) clinics held throughout the City and County. Evaluation of homes of
children found to have elevated blood lead levels, as well as, consultation for renovation and
remodeling are provide through this program.
The CSD staff will also continue to educate realtors and lenders that we work with on the
dangers of lead paint in the City of Federal Way housing stock.
Specific Homeless Prevention Elements
*Please also refer to the Homeless Needs Table in the Needs.xls workbook.
33. Please describe, briefly, the jurisdiction's plan for the investment and use of available resources and describe the
specific planned action steps it will take over the next year aimed at eliminating chronic homelessness by 2014. Again,
please identify barriers to achieving this.
34. Homelessness Prevention —The jurisdiction must describe its planned action steps over the next year to address the
individual and families with children at imminent risk of becoming homeless.
33
35. Discharge Coordination Policy —The jurisdiction must certify it established a policy for discharge of persons from publicly
funded institutions or systems of care (such as health care facilities, foster care, or other youth facilities, or correction
programs and institutions) in order to prevent such discharge from immediately resulting in homelessness for such
persons. (91.225 (c)(10))
2014 Action Plan Special Needs response:
Use of Available Resources
The City of Federal Way has followed a strategy to:
a) Prevent homeless through prevention efforts including City- funded emergency assistance
grants, and
b) End homelessness through efforts to move people as rapidly as possible from
homelessness into housing. The City outlined its priorities for preventing and ending
homelessness and other activities geared to special needs populations in the Five Year
Consolidated Plan. The City has also accepted the recommendations of the "Ten Year Plan
to End Homelessness in King County" which serves as the local CoC.
The City has supported projects that develop supportive permanent housing units throughout the
community.
By identifying specific projects through this process, the City is able to address the needs of the
homeless population, tap the resources of County and community agencies and integrate the local
service delivery systems. Eleven agencies are currently under contract with the City to provide
supportive services through financial assistance, case management, housing mediation, legal
advocacy and tenant education. While the HUD ESG funds represent a relatively small portion of
the total resources within the local homeless services system, the City and providers combine
a variety of resources to address the objectives in the Five Year Plan and the Community Plan.
The largest portion of these funds is used to fund the REACH OUT Program through a contract with
Catholic Community Services and the collaboration with local faith based institutions.
Homeless Prevention
The City of Federal Way uses local resources to fund outreach to connect chronically homeless to
housing and services through a contract with various agencies. This includes continuing a
relationship with Federal Way Community Caregiving Network, Multi- Service Center and St.
Vincent DePaul, which receives local funds to offset insufficient resources for persons needing
housing, transportation, and access to a variety of basic needs.. The Multi- Service Center and
FUSION also receive local funds to provide support services to formerly homeless families.
Emergency Shelter Grants (ESG)
®N /A
36. If applicable, describe how the ESG matching requirements
will be met.
37. (States only) Describe the process for awarding grants to State recipients, and a description of how the allocation will
be made available to units of local government.
The City of Federal Way does not receive ESG funds.
34
Non - Homeless Special Needs (91.220 (c) and (e))
38. Please describe any supportive housing activities being undertaken to address the priority housing needs of persons
who are not homeless (elderly, frail elderly, persons with disabilities, persons with HIV /AIDS, persons with alcohol or other
substance abuse problems).
2014 Action Plan Specific Objectives response:
The State of Washington and King County utilizes local, state and federal dollars as the lead
public source for funding services to the special needs population. The City of Federal Way
provides assistance to this population through sponsoring the INCLUSION Program (see
description and Attachment A) and by partnering with local non - profits that purchase existing
housing that is suitable for persons with physical and mental disabilities.
Parkview Services has received approval for CDBG funds to purchase and rehabilitate a single
family home for three or four Federal Way residents who have intellectual and developmental
disabilities in PY 2014. The City provides local funds to agencies that combine other funding and
the proceeds from private fundraising to develop and operate affordable housing. The City does
not currently plan to use CDBG funds for direct rental assistance.
Community Development
39. Identify the estimated amount of CDBG funds that will be used for activities that benefit persons of low- and
moderate- income (an amount generally not to exceed ten percent of the total available CDBG funds may be excluded
from the funds for which eligible activities are described if it has been identified as a contingency for cost overruns.)
40. CDBG resources must include the following in addition to the annual grant:
a. Program income expected to be received during the program year, including:
L The amount expected to be generated by and deposited to revolving loan funds;
ii. The total amount expected to be received during the current program year from a float- funded
activity described in a prior statement or plan.
b. Program income received in the preceding program year that has not been included in a statement or plan;
C. Proceeds from Section 108 loan guarantees that will be used during the year to address the
priority needs and specific objectives in its strategic plan;
d. Surplus funds from any urban renewal settlement for community development and housing
activities; and
e. Any grant funds returned to the line of credit for which the planned use has not been included in
a prior statement or plan.
41. Identify the jurisdiction's priority non - housing community development needs eligible for assistance by
CDBG eligibility category specified in the Community Development Needs, public facilities, public
improvements, public services and economic development. (Use of Table 28 or the Community
Development Needs Table is sufficient, additional narrative is not required)
a. For activity for which the jurisdiction has not yet decided on a specific location, such as when a
jurisdiction is allocating an amount of funds to be used for making loans or grants to
businesses or for residential rehabilitation, provide a description of who may apply for the
assistance, the process by which the grantee expects to select who will receive the
assistance (including selection criteria), and how much and under what terms the assistance
35
will be provided.
42. Identify specific long -term and short-term community development objectives (including economic
development activities that create jobs), developed in accordance with the statutory goals described in
section 24 CFR 91.1 and the primary objective of the CDBG program to provide decent housing and a
suitable living environment and expand economic opportunities, principally for low- and moderate - income
persons. (Use of Table 2B or the Community Development Needs Table and Summaries Table is
sufficient, additional narrative is not required)
43. An "urgent need" activity may be included in the action plan only if the jurisdiction certifies that the
activity is designed to meet other community development needs having a particular urgency because
existing conditions pose a serious and imminent threat to the health or welfare of the community and other
financial resources are not available.
2014 Action Plan Community Services
response:
For 2014, the City of Federal Way has placed a high priority on the expansion of economic
opportunities for lower- income persons through job creation and employment and training, on
the creation and improvement of neighborhood- focused facilities that serve lower- income
neighborhoods, on the operation of neighborhood centers and community gardens, and on
revitalization efforts that address higher priority needs within selected geographical areas within
the City.
Priority is reflected in part by the amount of resources targeted for each area. Staff believes that
a balanced program of activities delivered over a period of time will result in the most
productive effect within the community. These are complemented by discussions and other
coordinated research efforts among other city and community funders.
To help families and neighborhoods address these needs and reduce these obstacles, the City, has
adopted the following non - housing community development objectives:
1. Help businesses and non - profits grow in ways that create new employment
opportunities for lower- income persons which expands economic opportunity and
improves the quality of life for unemployed and underemployed individuals.
2. Assist micro - enterprises to thrive to become the principal occupation of their
owners or create jobs for lower income persons.
3. Connect residents to job training opportunities that lead to permanent
employment that offers a living wage or greater.
4. Provide residents with skills or opportunities that will lead to stronger
neighborhoods.
5. Assist residents of designated neighborhoods to identify opportunities and
promote sustainable revitalization efforts. Encourage sustained, complementary
and comprehensive revitalization efforts in selected neighborhoods.
Section 108 Loan Application: In 2013, the City Council authorized moving forward with a proposed
application for up to $3,030,000 in Section 108 funds. There are several options that Council is
considering to fund with Section 108; construction costs associated with the Performing Arts and
Conference Center, or the creation of a loan fund to spur private investment in the Twins Lakes
Commercial Redevelopment Area.

SUMMARY STATEMENT
The City developed this document to describe its community - development - related strategies and
to guide future decisions as these projects are implemented, assessed and modified for improved
quality and effectiveness. The document is also designed to meet the requirements of the
Department of Housing and Urban Development and to elicit comments and suggestions for
improvement from Federal Way citizens for future actions.
The activities seek to improve those conditions that lead to a better community: healthy
neighborhoods; affordable housing; growing employment and businesses; accessible human
services; information resources; and effective program management. The resources described in
this document are only a portion of the energy, vision and skill brought to bear upon the
challenges facing Federal Way. This plan attempts to provide a framework for the allocation
and organization of these public resources in ways which complement the work of others within
the community and together improve the viable urban community which embodies the goals of
Federal Way.

*The City has estimated first year outcomes based on prior year experience with the 3
individual public services programs making up the outcomes for these objectives. Because
each of the SL1.1 and SL3.1 objectives includes a single project with estimated outcomes
that are much higher than the other 2 project outcomes (the persons receiving assistance in
the larger projects are 354 persons and 150 respectively), the second through fourth year
outcomes include a calculation based on the average of the two smaller projects (for
example, the average outcomes for the 2 smaller projects of the SL1.1 objective is 24 X 3
projects = 72 persons receiving assistance) ranging to a maximum representing the
outcomes of the first year (354).

Following a Plan -- It is following a current consolidated plan (or Comprehensive Housing Affordability Strategy)
that has been approved by HUD.
Use of Funds -- It has complied with the following criteria:
11. Maximum Feasible Priority - With respect to activities expected to be assisted with CDBG funds, it certifies that
it has developed its Action Plan so as to give maximum feasible priority to activities which benefit low- and
moderate - income families or aid in the prevention or elimination of slums or blight. The Action Plan may also
include activities which the grantee certifies are designed to meet other community development needs having
a particular urgency because existing conditions pose a serious and immediate threat to the health or welfare
of the community, and other financial resources are not available);
12. Overall Benefit - The aggregate use of CDBG funds including section 108 guaranteed loans during program
year(s) 2013, 2014, 2015, (a period specified by the grantee consisting of one, two, or three specific
consecutive program years), shall principally benefit persons of low- and moderate - income in a manner that
ensures that at least 70 percent of the amount is expended for activities that benefit such persons during the
designated period;
13. Special Assessments - It will not attempt to recover any capital costs of public improvements assisted with
CDBG funds including Section 108 loan guaranteed funds by assessing any amount against properties owned
and occupied by persons of low- and moderate - income, including any fee charged or assessment made as a
condition of obtaining access to such public improvements.
However, if CDBG funds are used to pay the proportion of a fee or assessment that relates to the capital costs
of public improvements (assisted in part with CDBG funds) financed from other revenue sources, an
assessment or charge may be made against the property with respect to the public improvements financed by
a source other than CDBG funds.
The jurisdiction will not attempt to recover any capital costs of public improvements assisted with CDBG funds,
including Section 108, unless CDBG funds are used to pay the proportion of fee or assessment attributable to
the capital costs of public improvements financed from other revenue sources. In this case, an assessment or
charge may be made against the property with respect to the public improvements financed by a source other
than CDBG funds. Also, in the case of properties owned and occupied by moderate - income (not low- income)
families, an assessment or charge may be made against the property for public improvements financed by a
source other than CDBG funds if the jurisdiction certifies that it lacks CDBG funds to cover the assessment.

I further certify that the local government will comply with:
The requirements of 24 CFR 576.53 concerning the continued use of buildings for which Emergency
Shelter Grants are used for rehabilitation or conversion of buildings for use as emergency shelters for
the homeless; or when funds are used solely for operating costs or essential services.
2. The building standards requirement of 24 CFR 576.55.
3. The requirements of 24 CFR 576.56, concerning assurances on services and other assistance to the
homeless.
4. The requirements of 24 CFR 576.57, other appropriate provisions of 24 CFR Part 576, and other
applicable federal laws concerning nondiscrimination and equal opportunity.
5. The requirements of 24 CFR 576.59(b) concerning the Uniform Relocation Assistance and Real
Property Acquisition Policies Act of 1970.
6. The requirement of 24 CFR 576.59 concerning minimizing the displacement of persons as a result of a
project assisted with these funds.
7. The requirements of 24 CFR Part 24 concerning the Drug Free Workplace Act of 1988.

to ensure the confidentiality of records pertaining to any individual provided family violence
prevention or treatment services under any project assisted with ESG funds and that the address or
location of any family violence shelter project will not be made public, except with written
authorization of the person or persons responsible for the operation of such shelter.
9. The requirement that recipients involve themselves, to the maximum extent practicable and where
appropriate, homeless individuals and families in policymaking, renovating, maintaining, and operating
facilities assisted under the ESG program, and in providing services for occupants of these facilities as
provided by 24 CFR 76.56.
10. The requirements of 24 CFR 576.57(e) dealing with the provisions of, and regulations and procedures

65
11. The requirements of 24 CFR 576.21(a)(4) providing that the funding of homeless prevention activities
for families that have received eviction notices or notices of termination of utility services will meet
the requirements that: (A) the inability of the family to make the required payments must be the result
of a sudden reduction in income; (B) the assistance must be necessary to avoid eviction of the family
or termination of the services to the family; (C) there must be a reasonable prospect that the family
will be able to resume payments within a reasonable period of time; and (D) the assistance must not

maximum extent practicable and where appropriate, policies and protocols for the discharge of
persons from publicly funded institutions or systems of care (such as health care facilities, foster
care or other youth facilities, or correction programs and institutions) in order to prevent such
discharge from immediately resulting in homelessness for such persons. I further understand that
state and local governments are primarily responsible for the care of these individuals, and that ESG
funds are not to be used to assist such persons in place of state and local resources.

APPENDIX TO CERTIFICATIONS
Instructions Concerning Lobbying and Drug -Free Workplace Requirements
Lobbying Certification
This certification is a material representation of fact upon which reliance was placed when this transaction was
made or entered into. Submission of this certification is a prerequisite for making or entering into this transaction
imposed by section 1352, title 31, U.S. Code. Any person who fails to file the required certification shall be subject
to a civil penalty of not less than $10,000 and not more than $100,000 for each such failure.
Drug -Free Workplace Certification
1. By signing and /or submitting this application or grant agreement, the grantee is providing the certification.
2. The certification is a material representation of fact upon which reliance is placed when the agency awards the
grant. If it is later determined that the grantee knowingly rendered a false certification, or otherwise violates
the requirements of the Drug -Free Workplace Act, HUD, in addition to any other remedies available to the
Federal Government, may take action authorized under the Drug -Free Workplace Act.
3. Workplaces under grants, for grantees other than individuals, need not be identified on the certification. If
known, they may be identified in the grant application. If the grantee does not identify the workplaces at the
time of application, or upon award, if there is no application, the grantee must keep the identity of the
workplace(s) on file in its office and make the information available for Federal inspection. Failure to identify
all known workplaces constitutes a violation of the grantee's drug -free workplace requirements.
4. Workplace identifications must include the actual address of buildings (or parts of buildings) or other sites
where work under the grant takes place. Categorical descriptions may be used (e.g., all vehicles of a mass

5. If the workplace identified to the agency changes during the performance of the grant, the grantee shall
inform the agency of the change(s), if it previously identified the workplaces in question (see paragraph
three).
6. The grantee may insert in the space provided below the site(s) for the performance of work done in connection
with the specific grant: Place of Performance (Street address, city, county, state, zip code)
Check if there are workplaces on file that are not identified here. The certification with regard to the drug -free
workplace is required by 24 CFR part 21.

MEMORANDUM
DATE: SEPTEMBER 27, 2013
TO: COUNCIL MEMBERS
CC: MAYOR PRIEST
FROM: PAT RICHARDSON, CITY ATTORNEY v
PETER BECKWITH, ASSISTANT CITY ATTORNE`14"'
SUBJECT: PRIVATE DEVELOPMENT OF CITY PROPERTY
BACKGROUND
At the September 10, 2013 Parks, Recreation, Human Services and Public Safety Council
Committee meeting Hee Jung Lee and Mike Park approached the City offering to develop a Korean
community garden on City property adjacent to the King County Aquatic Centers, west of the BPA trail
and Panther Lake. Council requested follow -up information regarding the private development of City
property without using City resources or Staff. The staff report identifies some issues and potential
ramifications to the City for all private development. If Council desires to create a policy for private
development of City property, Staff will return with a resolution to capture the criteria or protocol.
ISSUES
Council has the legal authority to allow private development on City property. Authorizing any
development, however, requires consideration of several factors as listed below. Whether the property is
developed is fact specific to the subject property and project.
1. Development Restrictions
The threshold question is whether any development restrictions apply to the property. These
restrictions may include, open space, wetlands, underlying easements, etc. Certain City property has been
deeded to the City for a specific use, such as when King County deeded its parks to the City. Any
development must be consistent with those deed restrictions.
70.
The development and/or use of the property may also be limited pursuant to contracts for grants.
For example, CDBG funds were used at Dumas Bay for capital improvements. The amortization period
under the grant is twenty (20) years. If the City were to change the use before the expiration of the
amortization period, it would be required to refund the grant amount plus interest.
2. Consistent with Comprehensive Plan and Zoning
The next issue to address is confirmation the proposed development is consistent with the City's
Comprehensive Plan, and the use is allowed in that zone.
3. Documented Relationship (contract, lease, license)
The type of documentation capturing the relationship and responsibilities depends upon the
proposed development and proposed use of the property. For example, the proposed development may
entail the use of heavy equipment or significant labor, which could ultimately subject the City to higher
financial exposure. A contract with indemnification language and insurance requirements would most
Iikely be used.
Additionally, the use can be another factor. If the use was not open to the general public, but was
restricted a lease may be more appropriate. An example is the Starfire Sports Complex in Tukwila.
Under a lease Starfire is allowed to develop the property and use the property for a profit. At the end of
the lease the improvements revert to the city. This type of arrangement can be complicated as: 1) the city
must agree to the project as it will eventually be given to the city; 2) the lease may be long term to allow
the private party to make a return on investment; and 3) the city needs assurance of the viability of the
private party to maintain and insure the property as it still belongs to the city.
4. Requisite Permits and Inspections
Development on City property does not alter the process for obtaining the requisite permits and
inspections.
5. Construction on City iproperiy
Construction raises several potential issues:
A. Posting Bonds. Depending upon the project the private party may need to obtain
a bond for the work. Even when a bond is not required, the City may determine a bond is needed
to provide protection in the event that contracted labor is used or to restore property if the
development is not completed to the City's standards.
B. Public Work/Prevailing Wage. Private development on City property may be
subject to the public work and prevailing wage laws applicable to the City. Development
consisting of construction, alteration, repair or improvement that is not ordinary maintenance is
classified as a "public work" and subject to bid laws and prevailing wage.
State law creates an exception to the public works and prevailing wages requirements and
authorizes the City to enter into a contract with community service organizations (i.e. Chamber of
Commerce, Rotary, Kiwanis, etc). State law also limits the amount the City may reimburse the
2
71
service organization for certain costs (i.e. value of the improvements worth at least three times
more; total amount capped yearly multiplying two dollars by the City's population).
C Acceptance and Ongoing Maintenance /Operations. Any private development on
City property must be accepted by the City and comply with City requirements. As the
underlying property owner, the City is ultimately liable for the development. The City can
contract with a private party to provide insurance and ongoing maintenance and operations but in
the event of termination or breach of contract, the City is responsible for these costs.
D. Medical Claims. Absent a specific provision in a contract, volunteers are
considered employees for purposes of Labor and Industries medical aid benefits. Therefore, the
City would be responsible for paying premiums and assessments in the event that a volunteer is
injured while participating in the construction of the development.
6. General Liability Insurance. The City's financial exposure for general liability is $250,000
before insurance coverage. As a result, the City will be better protected financially by requiring
general liability insurance for any development project. The City's insurance broker recommends
that non -profit organizations provide at least $1 Million Dollars general liability insurance and it
could be higher depending upon the project and potential exposure. If the proposed development
comes from a business or for -profit organization, the insurance broker recommends a higher
level. Additionally, the broker recommends that the City be named as a primary and non-
contributory additional insured with a waiver of subrogation on the insurance certificate. The
insurance broker will review the certificates of insurance, verify the solvency of the company and
possibly talk to the agent.
CONCLUSION
The City can allow private development on City property. The following list is intended to
summarize the discussion above and provide guidance if Council does want to create a policy or protocol.
1) Does the City want the development?
2) Does it fit into the City's plans?
3) What are the long term plans for the development?
4) Will the development be open to the public? (This may include uses that are inconsistent
with the intent of the private party.)
5) Does the City have the resources to operate and maintain the development?
6) Does the private party have the resource /ability to construct the development?
7) Does the private party intend to operate and maintain the development? Does it have the
ability to do so?
8) Is the City funding any portion of the development? If so, attention must be paid to ensure
that bid and prevailing wage laws are not violated.
9) What if anything is the private party seeking from the City in pursuing the development?

Subject: BPA Trail Korean Community Garden
Proposal to Use City Property
Hee Jung Lee and Mike Park have approached the City regarding the construction of a
Korean Community Garden adjacent to the King County Aquatic Center, west of the BPA
Trail and Panther Lake. The request is to permanently use approximately 4 acres of City
property to construct a Korean Community Garden that would be open to the public.
Currently this area just north of the Aquatic Center is in a natural state with some trees,
blackberry vines, ferns, scotch broom and weeds. Due to the BPA power lines to the west
there are restrictions to what plants can be planted and grown in the easement area. The
terrain can be steep in some areas but it is generally rolling.
If Council authorizes the use of the City property for the Korean Community Garden, we
will begin the development process.
