BUSINESS ITEMS
Approval of Minutes
Committee member Assefa- Dawson moved to approve the April minutes as written, Committee
member Moore seconded the motion. Motion passed.
Grant Agreement Between Federal Way Police Department and the Washington Auto theft
Prevention Authority ( WATPA) for ALPR Replacement Project.
Chief Hwang stated that there are three patrol vehicles that have an automatic license plate reader
(ALPR). This equipment is very helpful in recovering stolen vehicles. The ALPR's that were purchased
in 2009 have reached their life expectancy, and need to be replaced. The department has received a grant
in the amount of $22,200 to replace the equipment in one of their vehicles. The grant needs to be used by
June 30, 2017. Committee member Moore moved to forward Grant Agreement between the
Federal Way Police Department and WATPA for the ALPR Replacement Project to the May 16,
2017, consent agenda for approval. Committee member Assefa- Dawson seconded. Motion Passed.
Federal Way Violence Prevention Coalition Steering Committee
The report was presented at the April 18 Council meeting. The recommendations from the committee are
strategic in nature and can be implemented in a short amount of time, but they are a long term approach
to the problem. Chair Koppang stated that tactically there are things that are happening at this time, and
that the Mayor and the Chief are both focused on these issues. Mayors from a multitude of agencies met
at Federal Way City Hall to discuss ways to discuss the issue. Chief Hwang stated that there has been an
increase in gun violence in the region that started during the 0 quarter of 2016. The Police Chiefs in
South King County met to discuss what they could do to address the issue. They are redirecting the
mission and focus of the task force in South King County; the primary mission has been drugs. Several
agencies will start meeting on a weekly basis to exchange criminal information. The city's special
investigation unit's primary mission will be to focus on gun violence issues. This will be a regional

effort, and they are confident that over time the regional effort will have a positive impact in mitigating
and reducing gun violence. Mr. Weidenfeld provided a recap on the meeting that was held with the
Mayors. The meeting was successful, everyone is on the same page, there is a need for more police
officers and it comes down to resources. Mr. Watson added that there also needs to be a focus on
prevention, and there are some positive things that are currently happening such as Community in
Schools and the Positive Outcome Program (POPS). There is a need to direct resources to law
enforcement but there is also a need to continue to direct resources towards preventative measures.
Committee member Moore stated that there needs to be programs for mentoring in early learning.
Ten recommendations were made and Chair Koppang would like the committee to discuss each
recommendation, prioritize them, and bring a recommendation to the full council.
Recommendation #1
The FWVPCSC recommends the City of Federal Way support a community- centered bystander
awareness project.
Ms. Clark stated that this is thru DAWN, and it is the Green Dot Program. The Green Dot program is a
bystander training that teaches you how to safely diffuse a situation. DAWN is currently working with
the City of Kent. There is a 90 minute and a 5 hour training program. Ms. Clark will come back to the
next PRHSPSC meeting with recommendations for the committee, so that they can make a formal
recommendation to the Council. Chair Koppang motioned that the committee adopt
recommendation number one. Committee member Moore seconded. Motion passed.
Recommendation #2
The FWVPCSC recommends the City of Federal Way institute restorative justice practices as a city
initiative to reduce crime and violence amongst youth in Federal Way.
Ms- Clark. stated that the Federal Way, School District bag started training, ind is actively daing this, now,
Mr. Call inquired what is meant by restorative justice; the city has no jurisdiction over children, and that
it will not work if it's a diversion program. Restorative justice needs to be defined. Discussion was held.
Chair Koppang summarized that it is a cultural change, and it starts at an early age by identifying
behavior that's not acceptable, and helping the perpetrator understand its effect on the rest of the
community, and the consequences of that action. Ms. Bridgeford stated that the school district may
already have some defined strategies. Chair Koppang suggested that the Council endorse the efforts of
the school district to institute a policy of restorative justice. Mr. Call stated that if the city does want to
have interaction with the criminal justice system, and we want to divert minor crimes where they don't
pay a fine, but they do some service to the victim then we need to explore partnering with the County.
Endorsing the school district is a good first step. Committee member Moore agreed with endorsing the
plan, and would like to add the verbiage "early learning and on up ". Committee member Assefa- Dawson
recommended the school district taking the lead, and the city will support them wherever they can. The
recommendation has been adjusted. Committee member Moore moved to have the Council endorse
the institution of restorative justice practices in Federal Way Public Schools from early learning
through twelfth grade. Committee member Assefa- Dawson seconded. Motion Passed.
Recommendation #3
The FWVPCSC recommends the City of Federal Way promote and incentivize the purchase and use of
gun safes/locking storage in homes and vehicles for firearm users.
Chief Hwang stated that King County Public Health does a lot to promote the purchase of safes and
locking devices for firearms. The Federal Way Police Department partners with them, and anytime
somebody gets a concealed weapons permit, they encourage them to buy a safe. Chief Hwang added that
the VPCSC is asking what can the city do the incentivize people to buy safes. The city does not have a
program at this time. Chief Hwang will have the department contact three to four companies, regarding
the possibility of offering discounts to people that b4 y safes, and provide feedback at the next meeting.

Recommendation #4
The FWVPCSC recommends the City of Federal Way provide an incentive, such as paid work time or
flexible schedules, to city employees to become mentors to a Federal Way youth. Furthermore, we
recommend the City of Federal Way encourage residents to become positive role models and volunteer
with youth throughout the community.
Discussion was held regarding the current workload of City staff, and that some departments are already
stretched very thin and asking them to do more is not reasonable. Currently there are four city employees
that use their lunch time to mentor a youth. Mr. Hutton stated that the Recreation Department is working
very hard on getting an afterschool program started at the Community Center, and it may be more
convenient for staff members to mentor youth participating in the afterschool program. This idea has
been shared with the Federal Way School District, and staff is waiting for the district to commit to busing
the students from their school to the center. Chair Koppang proposed changing the recommendation to
"The City of Federal Way encourages residents to become positive role models and volunteer with youth
throughout the community". Community in Schools, Positive Outcomes Program (POP), Youth Action
Team, Big Brothers and Sisters, and the Boys and Girls Club are organizations that are already in place
that citizens can partner with.
Recommendation #5
The FWVPSC recommends the City of Federal Way explore opening a "One- Stop" community resource
center for youth and young adults.
Ms. Clark stated that a lot of this has already started; Reach Out and the Goodwill have been speaking
with the Boys and Girls Club as a possible location. Mr. Watson stated that Nexus Youth and Family is
still interested in having a site in Federal Way, and they should be involved in the communications.
There are many talks currently taking place. Chair Koppang stated that the model of the city is to be a
partner in a program, not run the program. We do not have the resources to take something like this on.
Ms. Bridgeford stated that this is a long term project, and that there is a lot involved in putting something
like this together. Mr. Watson recommended inviting the Goodwill to make a presentation at a future City
Council meeting.
2017 Program Year Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Annual Action Plan
Ms. Bridgeford presented the information. There are two purposes to the annual action plan. 1)
Demonstrate how they will be using the funds. 2) It's an opportunity to share with the community how
those resources are going to be used to achieve goals. There have not been any substantial changes on
how the CDBG program will be implemented. The annual action plan was based on the 2015 annual
allocation, which was $620,000. They have not received the budget yet, but were told that they could
anticipate receiving an amount closer to the 2016 allocation, so it may be slightly more than $620,000.
There are three funding categories: 20% is for Planning & Administration, 15% is for Public Services,
and 65% is for Community Economic Revitalization Funding (CERF). The Planning & Administration
and Public Services are subject to a cap, the CERF is not subject to a cap. Ms. Bridgeford reviewed the
budgets for Public Services and CERF. Discussion was held on the CDBG CERF Budget. CDBG is
designed to fund services, and investments, and the amount that can be used for services is 15% of the
total budget, and 20% for Planning & Administration, and the remaining 65% can be used for various
things such as economic development, housing repair, public infrastructure and public facility projects,
neighborhood sidewalks and lighting, and a public park in a low income neighborhood. Chair Koppang
asked if there was a percentage of the 65% that is remaining that is dedicated for community
redevelopment as opposed to services. Mr. Watson answered that no, the 15% for services is a cap, and a
portion of the annual grant can be used to repay a Section 108 Loan, and they have set aside $179,000.
Committee member Moore moved to forward the 2017 CDBG Annual Action Plan to the May 16,
2017 City Council agenda for public hearing. Committee member Assefa- Dawson seconded.
Motion passed.

STAFF REPORT BY: Jeffrey Watson, Community Services Manager DEPT: CD
Attachments: First Amendment to the 2016 CDBG Annual Action Plan
In 2011, the City of Federal Way became a CDBG entitlement community and adopted its first Consolidated
Plan for the 2012 -2016 program year period. In program year 2015, the City, as a member of the HOME
Consortium with King County, began participation in the County's Consolidated Plan, resulting in the adoption
of a new Consolidated Plan for the 2015 -2019 program year period.
The Annual Action Plan is the annual work and spending plan for the City of Federal Way's CDBG funds from
HUD. An Action Plan is required for each year of the Consolidated Plan program period. Amendments to the
Annual Action Plan occur when projects change or are added. The First Amendment to the 2016 Annual Action
Plan includes the addition of the DAWN Shelter Renovation for a security fence and gate. The DAWN Shelter
Renovation was initially considered and recommended for funding by the Human Services Commission on
August 31, 2015 meeting. The project cost has changed since the initial recommendation resulting in an
increased total project cost. The Human Services Commission considered the First Amendment to the 2016
Annual Action Plan at its regular meeting on May 15, 2017 and voted 9 -0 to recommend the City Council
approve the First Amendment to the 2016 Annual Action Plan to include $60,000 for the DAWN Shelter
Renovation.

1. Introduction
The City of Federal Way presents this One Year Action Plan for the 2016 Community Development Block Grant program

This Action Plan allocates a total of approximately $4,213,912 dollars in anticipated 2016 Community Development

to help households to regain stability; 3) providing facilities and improvements to improve the quality of life; and 4)
supporting economic development efforts for small businesses and microenterprise.
During the period of the City's original 2012 -2016 Consolidated Plan, and the first year of the 2015 -2019 HOME
Consortia Consolidated Plan, the City of Federal Way worked closely with the community, nonprofit agencies, the
private sector, the State of Washington, HUD, the faith -based community, and the philanthropic community to make
solid progress towards goals.
In 2015, the City of Federal Way reported in the Consolidated Annual Performance Evaluation Report (CAPER):

AP -10 Consultation - 91.100, 91.200(b), 91.215(1)
1. Introduction
Consultation and citizen participation are important elements of the plan and its implementation. As
part of its first Consolidated Plan, for 2012 -2016, the City created the Citizen Participation Plan for the
City of Federal Way Consolidated Plan to guide the process, provide opportunities for citizen
involvement throughout the development of the Plan, and provide input for the implementation and
program evaluation phases in future years. During the process of developing the Plan, organizations
(both public and private) were consulted and local groups participated in providing input on needs and
proposed strategies.
The City of Federal Way is an active partner and participant in local and regional community
development and human services efforts. The City engages in ongoing coordination between other
cities in South King County having common interests and needs for community development, as well as
public policy organizations, housing providers, health providers, service agencies, and faith -based
organizations that are extensively involved in providing support to low- and moderate - income persons
and households, as well as the homeless. The City also works with other members of the King County
Consortium (Consortium) to conduct and participate in ongoing meetings with each other, stakeholders,
public housing authorities (PHA's), including the King County Housing Authority and the Renton Housing
Authority, and for the Continuum of Care, nonprofit housing and service providers, members of the
Housing Development Consortium of Seattle -King County, the Public Health Department of Seattle and
King County, Puget Sound Regional Council, South King County Human Services Planners, and the
Washington State Department of Social and Health Services. This coordination takes place regularly
throughout the year and informs recommendations for decision making bodies such as the City's Human
Services Commission, as well as public meetings held as a part of the planning and funding processes for
federal formula grants and local funds.
Provide a concise summary of the jurisdiction's activities to enhance coordination between
public and assisted housing providers and private and governmental health, mental health
and service agencies (91.215(1)).
The City of Federal Way coordinates with All Home, which has been designated by the King County
Council as the local homeless housing task force for King County. All Home was created to work with
service providers and advise local government on the creation of a local homeless housing plan and to
participate in a local homeless housing program. Federal Way works with King County and other
communities in the Consortium to provide input and advice to All Home on local and sub - regional issues
and needs regarding homelessness, and housing and services for the homeless.
The City provides both CDBG and local funds to agencies that serve chronically homeless individuals and
families, families with children, veterans, and unaccompanied youth. In addition, Federal Way is
fortunate to have numerous churches and other faith -based groups that provide regular services and
support to the homeless in our community. This includes meals, overnight shelter during the cold
months, and shower and laundry services. The City also uses general fund dollars to fund the Reach Out
winter shelters for homeless men and women. Catholic Community Services provides case management
for these shelters.
Federal Way Annual Action Plan — First Amendment 4
192016
The City also participates annually in the One Night, Point in Time Count.
Describe coordination with the Continuum of Care and efforts to address the needs of
homeless persons (particularly chronically homeless individuals and families, families with
children, veterans, and unaccompanied youth) and persons at risk of homelessness.
The King County's CoC McKinney Vento- Supported Housing Project (SHP) funds support transitional
housing and related supportive services for people moving from homelessness to independent living, as
well as permanent supportive housing for persons with disabilities. Coordinating the CoC is critical to
our region's implementation of the All Home Homelessness Strategic Plan, which is focused on making
homelessness rare, brief, and one -time. Additionally, efforts by the City and our many human services
partners are targeted to help homeless persons meet three goals:
achieve residential stability;
increase their skill levels and /or incomes; and
strengthen their ability to influence decisions that affect their lives.
The City participates and supports numerous coalitions and committees, such as the South King County
Forum on Homelessness, and All Home, the King County agency focused on ending homelessness. These
valuable partnerships support Federal Way's and the surrounding region's efforts to make homelessness
rare, brief, and one -time.

All projects receiving McKinney funding are required by HUD to apply for support through a local
Continuum of Care. For King County, the Continuum of Care encompasses programs and activities
within the borders of King County. The King County CoC priorities are set by All Home in King
County. Federal Way staff contributes to the CoC by working collaboratively with All Home and with
other communities, especially those in South King County, to provide input and cooperation with All
Home and King County.

21 2016
AP -12 Participation - 91.401, 91.105, 91.200(c)
Summary of citizen participation process /Efforts made to broaden citizen participation
Consultation and citizen participation are critical elements of the plan. The value of citizen participation
includes: 1) hear the community's recommendations on how the City should invest its CDBG dollars; 2)
consult with individuals who may not initiate contact with the City because of language /cultural
differences or who do not come from experiences where government sought their opinions; and 3)
convene public hearings and meetings to increase opportunities for housing providers; service agencies;
and healthcare organizations to come together and discuss how they can coordinate services and pool
funding to achieve the greatest impact. Such consultation and citizen participation are ongoing aspects
of the City's administration of its CDBG program.
The City regularly engages service providers and citizens in discussions regarding community
development and human services needs. The City continuously seeks input by meeting with individuals
and organizations on an ongoing basis. Organizations that receive funding are monitored throughout
the year and discuss trends and emerging needs with City staff. City staff meets regularly with human
service providers, other cities in the area, and other funders to discuss services for homeless individuals
and families to seek solutions to both local and regional community development problems.

amount of

established by
the City and
approved by
HUD in 2014.
The loan for the

Explain how federal funds will leverage those additional resources (private, state, and local funds),
including a description of how matching requirements will be satisfied
CDBG funds do not require a match. CDBG funding for public services and public facility projects is only
a portion of the total funding required. The City encourages applicants to secure other funding for
projects in order to leverage resources to the extent possible.
If appropriate, describe publically owned land or property located within the jurisdiction that may be
Federal Way Annual Action Plan — First Amendment 10
252016
used to address the needs identified in the plan
The City of Federal Way owns the property upon which the proposed Performing Arts and
Entertainment Center (PAEC) will be built. As described previously in this plan, the PAEC will generate
jobs both directly and via acting as a catalyst for redevelopment of the City Center area in Federal Way,
resulting in additional jobs. Because the City will be using Section 108 Loan funds in support of the PAEC
development, jobs created through the facility and as a result of related development will be available
for low- and moderate - income persons.
Discussion
CDBG and Section 108 Loan funds will be used to support eligible- activities in accordance with CDBG
regulations.

Describe the reasons for allocation priorities and any obstacles to addressing underserved
needs
In establishing the priorities for activities to meet the needs of the City, activities are being considered
which are likely to be of high impact. The City looked to its own initiatives and goals to determine how
to best to build on efforts already underway which could impact the economic problems affecting low -
and moderate - income persons. This has led the City to develop strategies with a focus on economic
revitalization activities and job creation, safety net /self- sufficiency services, and protecting /enhancing
housing owned or rented by low- and moderate - income households.
In order to continue services helping populations who are risk, the City allocated the maximum possible
to services that have proven to be effective in the past. The City placed a significant amount of the
resources into the economic development activities for job creation and allocated funding for
microenterprise technical assistance; and, in order to begin working on affordable housing needs,
identified funds to maintain owner - occupied housing.
The City has chosen to place 100% of program funds toward activities which primarily benefit low- and
moderate- income households in its first year and will assure that a minimum of 70% of program
resources will benefit low- and moderate - income households.

Introduction
As a member of the King County HOME Consortium, the City of Federal Way will engage in housing
activities, collaborations, and partnerships to enhance opportunities for equitable development and the
creation /preservation of affordable housing. The Consortium will plan for and support fair housing
strategies and initiatives designed to affirmatively further fair housing choice and to increase access to
housing and housing programs.
We value working together with collective impact to continue the work to develop a cohesive and
coordinated homeless system that is grounded in the principle of Housing First and shared outcomes;
we invest in projects that ensure that homeless households from all sub - populations are treated with
dignity and respect; are returned to permanent housing as quickly as possible; receive strength -based
services that emphasize recovery, as needed; are supported to graduate from temporary homeless
housing as rapidly as possible, and from permanent supportive housing as soon as they are ready;
receive only what they need to be returned to housing quickly and to be as self - reliant as possible; we
are not a one size fits all system.
Establish and maintain a suitable living environment and expand economic opportunities for low -and
moderate - income people. Our investments across the Consortium in low- income communities, and for
the benefit of low- income people, help to ensure equitable opportunities for good health, happiness,
safety, self - reliance and connection to community. Specific strategies include: 1) improve the ability of
health and human services agencies to serve our low to moderate - income residents safely and
effectively; 2) improve the living environment in low to moderate - income neighborhoods and
communities; and 3) expand economic opportunities for low to moderate - income residents of the
Consortium.
