Signature Report
July 11, 2006
Ordinance 15537
Proposed No. 2006-0264.4 Sponsors Ferguson,Hague, Phillips,
Lambert and von Reichbauer
1 AN ORDINANCE providing for the submission to the
2 qualified electors of King County at a special election to be
3 held in King County on September 19, 2006, of a
4 proposition authorizing a property tax levy in excess of the
5 levy limitation contained in chapter 84.55 RCW, for a six
6 year period, at a rate of not more than $0.0568 per one
7 thousand dollars of assessed valuation for collection in
8 2007 and as allowed by chapter 84.55 for the five
9 succeeding years, for the purpose of funding the continued
10 operation of the automated fingerprint identification
11 system.
12
13
14 PREAMBLE:
15 The automated fingerprint identification system levy is intended as
16 supplemental funding to provide crime scene identification,positive
17 identification and criminal history services on a regional basis. This levy
1
Ordinance 15537
18 shall not at any time provide general criminal justice funding or fund
19 programs or purposes not otherwise consistent with this ordinance.
20 BE IT ORDAINED BY THE COUNCIL OF KING COUNTY:
21 SECTION 1. Findings: The council makes the following findings:
22 A. On November 4, 1986,the voters of King County approved an additional
23 property tax levy of$0.025 per one thousand dollars of assessed valuation for five years
24 for the purchase and implementation of an automated fingerprint identification system
25 ("AFIS"). This ballot measure was authorized by Ordinance 7747. The primary goal for
26 the establishment of AFIS was to identify perpetrators of crimes by matching their crime
27 scene fingerprints to known prints stored in the AFIS database. By the end of 1990, more
28 than one thousand two hundred crime scene prints were matched to potential suspect
29 fingerprints in the AFIS database. Very few of these identifications would have been
30 possible without the AFIS program, therefore AFIS significantly contributed to the ability
31 of law enforcement in King County to identify and convict criminals.
32 B. With the 1986 AFIS levy expiring at the end of 1990, on November 6, 1990,
33 the voters of King County authorized an additional property tax levy of$0.020 per one
34 thousand dollars of assessed valuation for five years. This ballot measure was authorized
35 by Ordinance 9603. The funding of this levy addressed two critical limitations in AFIS
36 operations. With the growth of the inmate population, only sixty percent of the inmates
37 booked into the King County Jail were fingerprinted given the existing number of staff.
38 Without these fingerprints,there was a greater likelihood that inmates with outstanding
39 warrants would be released from jail. The second limitation was related to a shortage of
40 staff to process crime scene fingerprints and to train law enforcement on lifting crime
2
Ordinance 15537
41 scene fingerprints,resulting in lower than anticipated submissions of fingerprints. With
42 the resources provided in the 1990 levy, the AFIS program fingerprinted on average
43 ninety-seven percent of all inmates booked into the county jail and processed these prints
44 on average within five and three-tenths hours. In addition,the AFIS program provided
45 five hundred twenty-four hours of training for suburban police agencies, improved
46 processing time for crime scene fingerprints and identified three thousand four hundred
47 crime scene fingerprints.
48 C. With the 1990 AFIS levy expiring at the end of 1995, on November 7, 1995,
49 the voters of King County authorized an additional property tax levy at a rate of$0.0665
50 per one thousand dollars of assessed valuation for five years. This ballot measure was
51 authorized by Ordinance 11948. The levy addressed several needs:
52 1. The funding of staff needed to capture additional fingerprints of juvenile
53 offenders at the department of youth services,persons convicted of driving under the
54 influence of alcohol or controlled substances at the North Rehabilitation Facility, and
55 inmates booked into the new Regional Justice Center in Kent. Ninety-nine and nine-
56 tenths percent of all available fingerprints were obtained from persons who were booked
57 at those sites with the resources provided in the 1995 levy;
58 2. Insufficient funding for adequate levels of AFIS staff to process crime scene
59 fingerprints through the computerized system. The lack of staffing resulted in large case
60 backlogs waiting to be processed in AFIS and insufficient field training for officers
61 collecting crime scene fingerprint evidence. This resulted in lengthy delays in some
62 cases, which made officers reluctant to either collect or submit important fingerprint
63 evidence. Currently most cases are initiated on the day they are received in the latent lab,
3
Ordinance 15537
64 and field training is available for officers responding to crime scenes. Officer training
65 was limited somewhat in the early years of the levy to focus on training of newly hired
66 latent print examiners;
67 3. The AFIS computer, purchased in 1987, could not be supported or maintained
68 by the vendor after 1999. It also would not meet emerging national standards, which
69 would allow a more efficient exchange of fingerprint information and access to
70 fingerprint information stored on state and federal databases. By the end of 1999, the
71 computer was replaced by AFIS 21,which was fully Year 2000 compliant. Data storage
72 capacity increased from four hundred fifty thousand to seven hundred fifty thousand
73 records. The system is contracted to meet national standards of data transmission; and
74 4. The inked fingerprinting process can be inefficient and duplicative. Live-
75 scan, an inkless means of capturing one set of fingerprints and submitting these prints
76 electronically, was funded through this levy and was installed by the close of this levy
77 period ending in 2000.
78 D. With the 1995 AFIS levy expiring at the end of 2000, on September 19, 2000,
79 the voters of King County authorized an additional AFIS property tax levy at a rate of
80 $0.05874 per one thousand dollars of assessed valuation for five years. This ballot
81 measure was authorized by Ordinance 13894. This fourth levy continued the AFIS
82 implementation of the previous levy and supported several incremental enhancements to
83 the program:
84 1. Staffing additions to handle low range estimates of increased workload;
4
Ordinance 15537
85 2. Completion of Live Scan implementation by purchasing and implementing an
86 additional seven Capture Stations beyond the 22 funded in 2000. Ultimately 10 Capture
87 Stations were purchased for the same cost through negotiation with the vendor; and
88 3. Establishment of print taking at Juvenile Court for juvenile offenders who
89 were never booked into detention.
90 E. On December 31, 2005,the 2000 AFIS levy expired, effectively suspending
91 AFIS program revenue. Through prudent fiscal management, the county accumulated a
92 substantial balance in the AFIS fund over the past decade. This balance sustained
93 appropriations in 2006 to continue AFIS program operations without a concurrent
94 property tax levy. This required AFIS management to carefully manage and monitor
95 AFIS fund expenditures in 2006 in order to fund 2006 expenditures without any new levy
96 revenue. The fund balance will approach exhaustion by the end of 2006. Unless new
97 revenue is identified,this valuable crime-fighting tool will need to cease operation in
98 2007.
99 F. The King County Regional Automated Fingerprint System, The Future of
100 AFIS report, dated May 15, 2006 ("Regional AFIS Report"),reaffirms that the regional
101 AFIS model has provided excellent and effective crime solving support to the criminal
102 justice agencies in King County since its inception in 1988.
103 G. The Regional AFIS Report identifies the financial resources needed to
104 continue and enhance the Regional AFIS program that best supports the crime fighting
105 efforts of all police agencies in King County for the foreseeable future. With the level of
106 funding recommended in the Regional AFIS Report financial plan,AFIS program
107 activities can continue at current levels with the following enhancements:
5
Ordinance 15537
108 1. Procure, configure, and support a new generation computer system, replacing
109 the existing AFIS computer; which was installed in 1988 and upgraded for year 2000
110 compliance in 1999;
111 2. Upgrade the current live scan capture stations to capture data at a higher
112 resolution;
113 3. Add five additional criminal live scan capture stations, supplementing the
114 existing inventory to address remaining service gaps in the region;
115 4. Implement palm searching and storage capabilities, converting current master
116 palm card inventory to an electronic database, and adding three positions to search,
117 capture, and identify palm prints left at crime scenes;
118 5. Increase staffing in conjunction with increases in workload ensuring that
119 staffing levels will be reevaluated annually in the budget cycle based on available
120 funding;
121 6. Implement a "court identification study" to consider the legal, financial, and
122 operational policies and needs of the court system to identify and collect fingerprints
123 from defendants;
124 7. Provide the technology to ensure that King County law enforcement agencies
125 implementing wireless mobile identification can access and communicate with the
126 regional identification system;
127 8. Add two photographers to process and photographically preserve finger and
128 palm print evidence recovered from crime scenes;
129 9. Implement a three-unit court identification pilot program based on the
130 outcome of the court identification feasibility study; and
6
Ordinance 15537
131 10. Implement a ten-unit mobile identification pilot project in order to ensure
132 that law enforcement agencies utilizing different wireless vendor products can
133 communicate with regional identification databases.
134 H. The Regional AFIS Report acknowledges the need to ensure that the Regional
135 AFIS program continues to meet the emerging needs of the community and industry
136 performance standards by recommending preparation of a comprehensive review of the
137 program every funding period and an update of the status of the initiatives and
138 performance measurements annually.
139 I. The Regional AFIS Report had two preferred recommendations to fund the
140 AFIS program. The report contained as the preferred choice a permanent property tax
141 levy. However, in the event that the permanent levy was not viable, a six-year levy was
142 proposed for the purpose of paying for the continued operation of the AFIS program.
143 J. The success of the regional AFIS program would not have been possible
144 without the close collaboration of law enforcement agencies from across the county.
145 Similarly,the 2006 levy will require timely communication with and the continued
146 involvement of all law enforcement agencies in the county in major policy and
147 appropriation actions concerning levy proceeds to ensure informed implementation
148 decisions by King County.
