taxes for the first year of the ZOZL - 2022 biennial
budget for the City of Kent.
RECITALS
A. Pursuant to RCW 84.55.120 and after providing all appropriate
notice, the City Council held public hearings on September 15, 2O2O, and
October 20, 2O2O, to consider the City of Kent's proposed operating and
capital biennial budget for the 202L and 2022 calendar years, to address
the City's property tax levy to be imposed in 2020 for collection in 202L,
and to review revenues and limit factors.
B. The property tax levy is controlled by a "limit factor" defined
by RCW 84.55,005, which limits the amount by which the property tax levy
may increase from year-to-year. The applicable limit factor is the lesser of
101 percent or 100 percent, plus inflation. Inflation refers to the percentage
of the implicit price deflator for personal consumption expenditures of the
United States published by the Bureau of Economic Analysis of the federal
Department of Commerce, The applicable inflation for purposes of the 2020
property tax levy is 0.602 percent, which establishes a limit factor of
100.602 percent.

C. Due to the revenue needs of the City, the City Council
contemporaneously considered Resolution No. 2OL9 declaring that a
substantial need exists to warrant increasing the limit factor for the 2O2O
property tax levy beyond 100 percent of last year's levy, plus the rate of
inflation, to the maximum property tax levy authorized of 101 percent-a
budgetary difference of $125,452 in additional revenue.
D. In accordance with RCW 84.55.LzO, any increase in property
tax revenue other than that resulting from the addition of new construction
and improvements to property; newly constructed wind turbines, solar, bio
mass, and geothermal facilities; annexations; and any increase in the value
of state-assessed property and the refund fund levy, requires the adoption
of an ordinance or resolution specifically authorizing the increase in terms
of both dollars and percentage.
E. Pursuant to RCW 84.52.010 and WAC 458-19-020, taxes shall
be levied in specific dollar amounts,
