With this announcement: "The people of Texas are informed that, in accordance with a proclamation from the Executive of the United States, all slaves are free. This involves an absolute equality of personal rights and rights of property, between former masters and slaves, and the connection heretofore existing between them, becomes that between employer and hired labor. The Freedmen are advised to remain at their present homes and work for wages. They are informed that they will not be allowed to collect at military posts; and they will not be supported in idleness either there or elsewhere"; and WHEREAS, Texans began the celebration of Juneteenth in 1866, with community events such as parades, cookouts, prayer gatherings, musical performances, and historical cultural readings; some communities purchased land for Juneteenth celebrations, such as Emancipation Park in Houston, Texas; and as freed families emigrated from Texas to other parts of the United States, they carried the Juneteenth celebration with them; and WHEREAS, Juneteenth is a day held in high importance for our African American brothers and sisters and is known as America's "Second Independence Day," and WHEREAS, starting on June 19th, 2022, Juneteenth will become an official state holiday in the State of Washington; and WHEREAS, the City of Federal Way is proud to celebrate this important national day of freedom and is committed to creating a more just, inclusive, and equitable community; and WHEREAS, in Federal Way, our residents have been organizing community -wide Juneteenth activities with this year representing our second annual Juneteenth Flag raising ceremony and celebration.

The group of community stakeholders was created to address Federal Way City Council Regular Minutes Page 4 of 9 June 1, 2021 concerns regarding a Seattle - King County Public Health needle distribution van in the city. The SCORE (South King County Outreach Referral and Exchange) program is an appointment -only project that meets clients at their residences and does not go to shopping centers or other public locations in the city. After concerns were raised by residents the Mayor requested the county pause the program for thoughtful review. In early April, Director Patty Hayes agreed to pause the program and participate in a public conversation with the community. Due to legal constraints from a Washington State Supreme Court decision in Spokane County Health District v Brockett, the city is limited in the ability to regulate the distribution of needles. Following three (3) meetings of the Needle Exchange Policy Group, Mayor Ferrell forwarded nine (9) requests which emerged from the working group discussion to Public Health Director Hayes. Mayor Ferrell reviewed the nine requests and the response received from Director Hayes. Mayor and Council President Honda continue to be concerned about the proliferation of needles in our community.

The city will continue to monitor the program and evaluate options. Council President Honda thanked the community members who brought their concerns forward and who spent their time in this working group. c.

He also provided detailed information on the level of service and high standard Federal Way holds, including being CALEA accredited. 4. PUBLIC COMMENT Representative Jesse Johnson spoke in support of a police oversite board stating he feels police are more likely to do the right thing when they know they are being held accountable. He concluded by saying that oversite does not mean that there is a problem with the police department. Jack Walsh shared his disappointment of the time taken to discuss the topic of police oversite and shared a story of the Federal Way Police Department's action to save a man that had collapsed in his business. Bob Drake shared his support for the Federal Way Police Department and addressed his concerns that a police oversite board would take away from the police and cause further problems in the community. Ken Blevens spoke in opposition of a police accountability board stating additional accountability is not needed but rather police should be given more ability to do the job required of them. Jacob Green spoke as the chapter president for Washington State's National Organization of Black Law Enforcement Executives (NOBLE) and expressed his support for the Federal Way Police Department. Bobby Jennings shared his definition of accountability stating it equates to safety and should not be confused with defunding or removing police services. Jack ❑ovey reflected on his time as mayor and when he was approached about the Federal Way Police Department becoming CALEA accredited. Mr. Dovey urged council to have a more in-depth presentation on what an accountability board would actually look like and cost. Clerk's Note: Due to the time restrictions, additional public comments were held over to the regular meeting public comment. 5.

Policy Question Should either of the two proposed Comprehensive Plan Amendments be placed on the final docket for further review by staff and consideration by the Planning Commission? II. Background The city received two requests from property owners for consideration as part of the 2021 Comprehensive Plan Amendment docket. Each proposal is summarized below: Proposal 1— Bally's Fitness Center (see Exhibit 1) Applicant's Request: The applicant states that there is not market demand for a health and fitness club at this location. Demand for housing is rapidly increasing within the city and region resulting in a lack of diverse housing options and lack of housing inventory. File Number: 20-103733-UP Parcel No's.: 172104-9038 Applicant: Weidner Apartment Homes Agent: ESM Consulting Engineers, LLC Owner: First Avenue South Apartments, LLC Address: 32818 VY Avenue South Location: Southeast intersection of 15Y Avenue South and South 3281h Street Size: 6.00 acres Existing Land Use: Vacant Health Club Existing Comprehensive Plan: Office Park Existing Zoning: Office Park (OP) Requested Comprehensive Plan: Multi -Family Requested Zoning: Multi -Family Residential (RM1800) LUTC Page 1 of 7 Selection Process: 2021 Comprehensive Plan Amendments Proposal — Steel Lake Viewpoint (see Exhibit 2) Applicant's Request: With the light rail expansion coming to Federal Way, Steel Lake is an excellent spot for urban professionals and families who will need access to downtown Seattle for employment but are otherwise priced out of the local real estate market. File Number: 20-103849-UP Parcel Nos.: 092104-9199 and 092104-9012 Applicant: Dave Henry, BCI Pacific Owner: Ed Kim, Steel Lake Homes, Inc Address: 1931 South 304th Street Size: 5.88 acres Existing Land Use: Parcel 092104-9012 (Vacant), Parcel 092104-9199 (Single Family) Existing Comprehensive Plan: Single Family High Density Residential Existing Zoning: Single Family Residential (RS 7.2 and RS 5.0) Requested Comprehensive Plan: Multi -Family Requested Zoning: Multi -Family Residential (RM1800) III. Comprehensive Plan Amendments The City of Federal Way accepts applications for map and text amendments to the comprehensive plan annually for consideration in amending the city's comprehensive plan. The Washington State Growth Management Act (GMA) allows comprehensive plan amendments only one time per year. Any interested person, organization, agency, or business may submit suggestions, proposals, or requests to the city for changes to the comprehensive plan, including maps and text. These proposals will be placed on a "proposed" docket for consideration by the City Council (see Exhibit 3). IV. SELECTION CRITERIA Pursuant to Federal Way Revised Code (FWRC) 19.80.080(2) and (3), the City Council shall consider the following criteria in selecting the docketed proposals to be considered during the upcoming cycle: (a) Whether the same area or issue was studied during the last amendment process and conditions have significantly changed so as to make the requested change within the public interest. Staff Response: These requests were not studied during the last amendment cycle. (b) Whether the proposed amendments are consistent with the overall vision of the comprehensive plan. Staff Response: The following policies from the comprehensive plan are applicable to all properties (Land Use Section 2.6): LUP 8 Designate and zone land to provide for Federal Way's share of regionally adopted demand forecasts for residential, commercial, and industrial uses for the next 20 years. LUP 9 Support a diverse community comprised of neighborhoods that provide a range of housing options; a vibrant City Center; well designed and functioning mixed -use, commercial and office areas; and distinctive neighborhood retail areas. LUTC Page 2 of 7 Selection Process: 2021 Comprehensive Plan Amendments LUP 10 Support the continuation of a strong residential community. LUP 11 Evaluate household and employment forecasts on a periodic basis to ensure that land use policies based on previous assumptions are current. LUP 12 Distribute park, urban agricultural sites, and recreational opportunities equitably throughout the City. The proposed amendments are consistent with these general land use policies. (c) Whether the proposed amendments meet existing state and local laws, including the Growth Management Act. Staff Response: The proposed designations and zones exist elsewhere in the city and are consistent with all state and local laws. (d) In the case of text amendments or other amendments to goals and policies, whether the request benefits the city as a whole versus a selected group. Staff Response: This criterion is not applicable to these requests as they are site -specific requests and not a request for a text amendment. If the request meets the criteria set forth above, it shall be further evaluated according to the following criteria: (a) Whether the proposed amendment can be incorporated into planned or active projects. Staff Response: The two requested amendments cannot be incorporated into other planned or active projects. (b) Amount of analysis necessary to reach a recommendation on the request. If a large-scale study is required, a request may have to be delayed until the following year due to work loads, staffing levels, and other operational factors as determined by the director. Staff Response: The Bally's Fitness Center request is not anticipated to require a large-scale study. The Steel Lake Viewpoint request will require a critical areas review. It is the city's understanding, that the Steel Lake applicant has hired consultants to prepare the reports and the city anticipates peer review and approval of those reports to be completed before the Planning Commission hearing. (c) Volume of requests received. A large volume of requests may necessitate that some requests be reviewed in a subsequent year. Staff Response: Both requests may be accommodated in this year's update process with current staffing resources. If any of the requests appear to be taking longer than anticipated, it will be recommended to be rolled over to next year's work program. (d) Order of requests received. Staff Response: The requests were received in the following order: Bally's Fitness Center, then Steel Lake Viewpoint. LUTC Page 3 of 7 Selection Process: 2021 Comprehensive Plan Amendments V. Public Notice and Public Comment Pursuant to FWRC 19.80.170, a notice was published in the Federal Way Mirror on May 28, 2021, and posted on the official city notice boards. Notice was also sent to the owners, applicants, and property owners within 300 feet of the boundaries of the subject properties for each proposal. A second public notice period will be distributed for the public hearing that will occur at the Planning Commission. VI.

The projects listed in the first three years are to be fully funded or have a reasonable chance of having all funding secured. Background Information: In accordance with the requirements of Chapters 35.77 and 47.26 of the Revised Code of Washington, the City of Federal Way adopted its original Transportation Improvement Plan ("TIP") and Arterial Street Improvement Plan ("ASIP") on July 23, 1991. The City is also required to adopt a revised TIP and ASIP on an annual basis reflecting the City's current and future street and arterial needs. These plans identify capital projects that the City intends to construct over the next six years. In order to be eligible for grant funding, projects are required to be listed in the City's TIP. The City is required to hold a minimum of one public hearing on the draft'plan, which is proposed for the June 15, 2021 Council meeting. Once the revised plans have been adopted by Resolution, a copy of the respective plans must be filed with the Washington State Secretary of Transportation and the Washington State Transportation Improvement Board. Attached for your review and comment is the 2022-27 TIP list of projects and a map showingtheir locations. The six -year TIP and ASIP respond to the Growth Management Act concurrency requirements as well as other emerging needs. Projects are selected based on criteria adopted in the City's Comprehensive Plan policy TP2.3, which reads, "Prioritize transportation projects considering concurrency, safety, multimodal enhancements, environmental impacts, and cost effectiveness." Each project was ranked using the scoring criteria established for TIP/Capital Improvement Plan ("CIP") prioritization. Staff also reviewed and analyzed available grant -eligible programs suitable for project programming.

As of today — the City has received 50% of the grant with the remaining to be provided in May of 2022. To address the issue of the deployment of this grant, the US Treasury requires significant documentation. This entails quarterly and annual reports. Therefore, to respond to this item, the Mayor is recommending the allocation of $400,000 from the grant for the required auditing assistance, for city staff reimbursement engaged on the deployment of the grant and to hire temporary personnel for the facilitation, reconciliation, and certification of the grant management reports over its term. Additionally, the Mayor is also recommending another $300,000 to contract with 3rd parties to address grant writing for the significant opportunities that have presented themselves for other federal grants through direction contribution such as the Local Fiscal Recovery Fund, along with ARPA and regular annual federal appropriations in the effort to acquire further funds for programs, projects and services. The total is less than 3.6% of the total grant and is well within General Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP). This is less than the percentage for the CARES Act. There will be no impact on the cost to the City's General Fund for the American Rescue Plan Act. Additionally, the City Council has approved the receipt of the $19.2 million grant from the federal government. The City Council, pending adoption, (second reading) will adopt it as part of the City's amended budget. Mayor's Recommendation: Authorize the use of American Rescue Plan Act/Local Fiscal Recovery Fund to hire temporary positions for grant management and 3rd party contractors for grant writing and auditing. Backp,round Information: The current public health crisis and resulting economic impacts have shattered the health and economic wellbeing of millions of Americans including Federal Way residents. Specifically impacted are people of color, immigrants, and low-income residents. Additionally, nationally, more than 9.5 million workers lost their jobs in the wake of the pandemic, with 4 million out of work for half a year or longer. The American Rescue Plan Act, (ARPA) is federal legislation passed by Congress and signed into law by the President on March 11 th, 2021. Its intent is focused on changing the course of the pandemic and deliver immediate and direct relief to families, businesses, and workers impacted by the COVID-19 crisis through no fault of their own. The eligible uses of the American Rescue Plan Act are as follows: a) To respond to the public health emergency or its negative economic impacts, including assistance to households, small businesses, and nonprofits, or aid to impacted industries such as tourism, travel, and hospitality; b) To respond to workers performing essential work during the COVID-19 public health emergency by providing premium pay to eligible workers; c) For the provision of government services to the extent of the reduction in revenue due to the COVID-19 public health emergency relative to revenues collected in the most recent full fiscal year prior to the emergency; and d) To make necessary investments in water, sewer, or broadband infrastructure. The U.S. Treasury identifies in their Interim Final Rule that once a shortfall in revenue is identified, recipients will have broad latitude to use this funding to support government services up to the amount of lost revenue. It is the focus of this effort to address the needs of the City's shortfall and corresponding potential uses through the federal eligible uses including diversity, equity, inclusion and accessibility. 2 COUNCIL MEETING DATE: June 15, 2021 ITEM #: CITY OF FEDERAL WAY CITY COUNCIL AGENDA BILL SUBJECT: POLICE BODY WORN CAMERA (BWC) PROGRAM POLICY QUESTION: Should the Police Department execute a contract with AXON and create a Body Worn Camera Program for the Police Department?

" (BELOW TO BE COMPLETED BY CITY CLERK'S OFFICE COUNCIL ACTION: ❑ APPROVED COUNCIL BILL # ❑ DENIED First reading ❑ TABLED/DEFERRED/NO ACTION Enactment reading ❑ MOVED TO SECOND READING (ordinances only) ORDINANCE # REVISED — 12/2017 RESOLUTION # CITY OF FEDERAL WAY MEMORANDUM DATE: June 8, 2021 TO: Parks, Recreation, Human Services, & Public Safety Council Committee VIA: Jim Ferrell, Mayor FROM: Andy J. Hwang, Chief of Police SUBJECT: Body Worn Camera (BWC) proposal Financial Impacts: The Year One expense for the implementation of the Body Worn Camera (BWC) program would be approximately $942,800. The initial licenses, equipment, and training expense is about $581,800 and the remaining $361,000 is for personnel salaries, benefits, workspace, and equipment. The five-year total amount for equipment and technological support is $2,190,477. There are two identified funding options, both related to the more than $19 million earmarked for the City through the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA). In the first option, the City is entitled to recovery of the revenue shortfall from 2020, which Finance has estimated at between $13 and $14 million. As revenue, that money can be used to fund the entire BWC program, including personnel costs. The remaining $5 to $6 million of the $19 million can be requested through a grant program. At this time, we believe the equipment expense may be eligible for purchase utilizing the grant option however, personnel expenses would not be covered, but could be covered by the revenue shortfall recovery option. Either way, through recovery of the revenue shortfall, the grant process, or a combination of the two, the ARPA is a viable funding source for the BWC program. Background Information: Police Body Worn Cameras (BWCs) are small cameras worn on a law enforcement officer's uniform to record officer interactions. The cameras have the capability to capture sound and an internal data storage unit to save video footage for later review. The video and audio recordings from BWCs can be used by law enforcement to demonstrate transparency to their communities; to document statements, observations, behaviors, and other evidence; and to deter unprofessional, illegal, and inappropriate behaviors by both law enforcement and the public. In mid-2020, the Federal Way Police Department began researching Body Worn Cameras (BWC). During this extensive research period, three companies were identified as having superior BWC products and support. In April 2021, those three companies were invited to the Federal Way Police Department to meet with multiple city representatives and provide demonstrations of their products and support platforms. The city employees in attendance including those from the police department's Command Staff, Officer's Guild, Lieutenant's Association and Records Division, as well as multiple employees from the Information Technology (IT) Department. At the conclusion of the demonstrations, it was clear that AXON provided the preferred program. AXON not only had the preferred BWC equipment and platform, they are also the vendor we currently use for our Tasers. Both BWCs and Tasers use AXON's Evidence.com platform to electronically store the evidence produced by these tools, which is a cloud -based storage platform. This program will outfit all sworn personnel, four Jail Transport officers, and two Animal Services officers with BWCs (143 BWCs). The AXON OSP7+ Premium Bundle includes the following products and access to services for all 143 personnel; AXON Body 3 BWCs, new T7 Tasers, taser holsters, docks for both BWCs and Tasers, training cartridges for the Taser, Taser live cartridges, and unlimited storage space in Evidence.com for BWC footage, pictures, and statements. The features included with the bundle are auto tagging, Respond+ live streaming and GPS capability, AXON Performance, ACON Citizen for Communities, Redaction Assistant, Auto transcription, Signal Sidearm, and a refresh/replacement of both our BWCs (includes upgrade to newer model BWC is one is available at the time) and docks twice during the five-year contract. (A more detailed explanation of the features is available on the OSP7+ Detailed Product Overview document attached.) This bundle also includes ten additional Evidence.com licenses for PD Records personnel. As part of the continued research of BWC programs, we contacted three local law enforcement agencies (Kent, PD, Tacoma PD, and Tukwila PD) that currently deploy AXON BWCs. All have expressed that the AXON products are high quality and well-built items. All agencies have expressed that the AXON equipment AXON's technical support is superior and they are quick to address any issues that may arise The proposal is for the following; E UMPMENT 143 BWC Licenses (137 sworn personnel, 2 Animal Services, 4 Jail Transport) AXON Body 3s ($699 each) - 8-bay docks (18 @ $1,500 each) - Implementation and Training for BWC & Taser 7 - 10 Pro Licenses (Records/Redaction staff) annual cost - TOTAL - YEAR 1 YEAR 2 YEAR 3 YEAR 4 YEAR 5 TOTAL Five-year contract cost - Credit for existing Taser contract - TOTAL EQUIPMENT EXPENSE - $ 410,124 $ 99,957 $ 27,000 $ 40,000 $ 4,680 $ 581,761 $ 414,804 $ 414,804 $ 414,804 $ 414,804 $ 2,240,977 $ (50,500) $ 2,190,477 PERSONNEL 1 FTE — LAW — attorney (salary & benefits) - $ 143,000 1 FTE — Information Technology — (salary & benefits) - $ 97,000 1 FTE — PD Public Records Coordinator — (salary & benefits) - $ 85,000 3 new work stations and equipment — ($10,000 each) - $ 30,000 Annual M&O for all 3 positions — ($2,000 each) - $ 6,000 TOTAL PERSONNEL EXPENSE - $ 361,000 YEAR ONE TOTAL EXPENSE - $ 942,761 WHAT'S INCLUDED AXON BODY 3 WITH AWARE - Unlock added value with Axon's connected camera, Axon Body 3, where advanced imaging and audio meet real-time awareness.

Ryan Call, City Attorney SUBJECT: Repeal of Misdemeanor Ordinance Prohibiting Unlawful Possession of Drug Paraphernalia Background Information: In the Blake case, the state supreme court invalidated the state's simple drug possession statute on constitutional grounds because the state statute lacked a requirement that the government prove intentional possession On May 13, 2021, the governor signed into law SB 5476, which creates a statewide misdemeanor for the possession of a controlled substance correcting the deficiency identified by the state supreme court by requiring proof of intent. The new law also establishes pre -arrest diversion to treatment, establishes treatment programs for substance abuse disorders and removed criminal prohibitions on possession of items defined as "drug paraphernalia." This legalization of items defined as "drug paraphernalia" preempts and supersedes Federal Way's local ordinance on possession of drug paraphernalia, rendering it invalid. The proposed ordinance repeals Federal Way Revised Code (FWRC) 6.10.040, 6.10.050, and 6.10,060 related to possession of drug paraphernalia as these laws conflict with new state law on the subject and are, therefore, preempted. Financial Impacts: The proposed ordinance has no direct fiscal impact to the City. Mayor's Recommendation: As state law related to possession of drug paraphernalia has rendered Federal Way's local law invalid, the mayor recommends repealing Federal Way's invalid law. Rev. 7/18 ORDINANCE NO. AN ORDINANCE of the City of Federal Way, Washington, relating to Criminal Possession of Drug Paraphernalia; repealing Federal Way Revised Code Sections 6.10.040, 6.10.050, and 6.10.060. (Repealing Ordinance Nos. 99-362 and 91-89) WHEREAS, on February 25, 2021, the Washington State Supreme Court held in the case of State v. Blake, No. 96873-0, that RCW 69.50.4013(1) —the statute that criminalized the possession of a controlled substance without a prescription — exceeds the state's police power and violates the due process clauses of the state and federal constitutions because it creates a strict -liability felony offense; and, WHEREAS, the Supreme Court's ruling had the effect of eliminating any criminal penalties for the possession of a controlled substance without a prescription; and, WHEREAS, on May 13, 2021, the Governor signed ESB 5476 creating a state law making the knowing possession of a controlled substance or counterfeit substance without a valid prescription a misdemeanor crime; and, WHEREAS, ESB 5476 removes criminal sanctions for the possession of many forms of equipment and packaging previously defined as "drug paraphernalia" including items used to test, analyze, pack, repack, store, contain, conceal, inject, ingest, inhale, or otherwise introduce into the human body a controlled substance other than marijuana; and, WHEREAS, the state law on this topic preempts or supersedes local ordinances related to possession of drug paraphernalia, invalidating the City of Federal Way's local prohibition of possession of a drug paraphernalia. Ordinance No. 21- Page I of 3 Rev 1/18 NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF FEDERAL WAY, WASHINGTON, DO ORDAIN AS FOLLOWS: Section 1.

Ryan Call, City Attorney SUBJECT: Repeal of Gross Misdemeanor Ordinance Prohibiting Unlawful Possession of Drugs Background Information: In the Blake case, the state supreme court invalidated the state's simple drug possession statute on constitutional grounds. The basis for this decision was that given the potentially severe consequences of a felony drug conviction, it was unconstitutional to criminalize possession of drugs without the state proving criminal intent beyond a reasonable doubt. The invalidated statute established a "strict liability" crime or, in other words, the state was not required to prove that the possession was intentional or knowing, merely that it was. While lower courts had developed an affirmative defense of unknowing possession that a defendant could prove at trial, the supreme court found that this shifting of the burden to a criminal defendant was unconstitutional. The court was particularly concerned with an innocent possessor who might unintentionally come into possession of drugs and then face criminal sanctions even though it was not a willful choice. A practical example of this would be if a person borrowed a car or a jacket from someone that had drugs in it. The practical effect of this court ruling is that without remedial action, the state could not impose criminal sanctions against people possessing controlled substances. In response to this gap in the law, Mayor Ferrell directed that Council be presented with a local ordinance that corrected the state law's lack of an intent requirement and created a local gross misdemeanor for the unlawful possession of a scheduled substance. On April 20, 2021, the City Council passed Federal Way Ordinance Number 21-911, which created a local gross misdemeanor for the unlawful possession of a controlled substance. On May 13, 2021, the governor signed into law SB 5476, which creates a statewide misdemeanor for the possession of a controlled substance. This state law preempts Federal Way's local law on the subject, rendering it invalid. The proposed ordinance repeals Ord. No. 21-911, which has become invalid due to state preemption on the subject. Rev. 7/18 Financial Impacts: The proposed ordinance has no direct fiscal impact to the City. Mayor's Recommendation: As state law controlling the unlawful possession of controlled substances has rendered Federal Way's local law invalid, the mayor recommends repealing Federal Way's invalid law. Rev. 7/18 ORDINANCE NO. AN ORDINANCE of the City of Federal Way, Washington, relating to Criminal Possession of Controlled Substances. (Repealing Ordinance 21- 911) WHEREAS, on February 25, 2021, the Washington State Supreme Court held in the case of State v. Blake, No. 96873-0, that RCW 69.50.4013(1) —the statute that criminalized the possession of a controlled substance without a prescription — exceeds the state's police power and violates the due process clauses of the state and federal constitutions because it creates a strict -liability felony offense; and, WHEREAS, the Supreme Court's ruling had the effect of eliminating any criminal penalties for the possession of a controlled substance without a prescription; and, WHEREAS, on April 20, 2021, the City Council of the City of Federal Way, citing the public safety issues created by the effective legalization of controlled substance possession, passed Ordinance 21-911, creating a gross misdemeanor crime for the knowing possession of controlled substance without a valid prescription; and, WHEREAS, on May 13, 2021, the Governor signed ESB 5476 creating a state law making the knowing possession of a controlled substance or counterfeit substance without a valid prescription a misdemeanor crime; and, WHEREAS, the state law on this topic preempts or supersedes local ordinances related to drug possession, invalidating the City of Federal Way's local prohibition of possession of a controlled substance. Ordinance No. 21- Page 1 of 3 Rev 1/18 NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF FEDERAL WAY, WASHINGTON, DO ORDAIN AS FOLLOWS: Section 1.

The current city ordinance 06-535 is amended to include the following new provisions: 1) The period for the program runs from January to April and this tends to be a problem for those that prepare an income tax return. The City requires this return for income verification, and many tax returns do not get finished by the end of April. The proposed change is to extend the program period to the end of Mai► to allow more time for getting the tax return to the city. 2) Over the last five years the City has reimbursed residents on average $100 per resident. There is a significant amount of time that goes into reimbursing actual utility tax paid on a customer bill, and its often very frustrating to citizens looking for 12 months worth of bills and spending money to make copies; therefore, the recommendation to this committee is to modify the ordinance to offer a flat amount. The flat amount of 100 proposed in the ordinance is s lit between the following utilities: gas 20.00electric 25 water ($15), sewer ($15), garbage ($15), telephone, cell phone, and cable 10 with a maximum not to exceed $100. 3) The Council directed staff to modify the policy to include low income of all ages for the program. Currently the ordinance states that you must be 65 years of age or older at all times during any period for which reimbursement is requested, or be disabled and unable to work to be eligible for the program. The or000sed change to this committee is to modify the ordinance to include all ages for low income residents. 4) There is also provision in the proposed ordinance for people that pay their utility bills with their rent. ORDINANCE NO. AN ORDINANCE of the City of Federal Way, Washington, providing for utility tax rebate to low-income citizens; amending FWRC 3.10.230 and 3.10.240.
