SUBJECT: 2017 -2022 Six-Year Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) -
Resolution – Adopt
SUMMARY: The 2017-2022 Six-Year TIP represents the City’s proposed
transportation improvement work program for the next six years. Per RCW
35.77.010, the six-year plan for each city shall specifically set forth those projects
and programs of regional significance for inclusion in the transportation
improvement program within that region. The program is also required to be
consistent with the Kent Comprehensive Plan.
Including these projects in the Six-Year TIP allows the City to search for funding
partners and apply for grants. Most state and federal agencies require that projects
being submitted for grants be included in the City’s adopted Six-Year TIP.
Since the May 2, 2016, Public Works Committee meeting, the following revisions
have been made to the TIP:
1. An introduction, project list, and map were added;
2. Funding sources and projected sources were listed with greater specificity;
and
3. Edits were made to correct grammatical or typographical errors, including an
error on page 25, which was corrected from $54,000,000 to $5,400,000.
EXHIBITS: 1) Resolution; and
2) 2017-2022 Six-Year Transportation Improvement Program

Introduction
Overview
The Six-Year Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) is a short-range planning
document that is updated annually based on needs and policies identified in the
City’s adopted Comprehensive Plan and Transportation Master Plan. The TIP
represents Kent’s current list of needed projects that are anticipated to begin
preliminary engineering, right of way acquisition or construction within the next six
years. The TIP also includes ongoing citywide transportation programs. Projects and
programs included in the plan are those that are considered to be regionally
significant.
The document identifies secured or reasonably expected revenue sources for each
project or program. The TIP serves as a draft work plan for the development of the
local transportation network. Once adopted, the TIP will guide funding and
implementation priorities during the development of the transportation portion of
the Six -Year Capital Improvement Program (CIP). The CIP shows the City-funded
portion of projects and is constrained by current budget forecasts, whereas the TIP
shows a complete project list with the variety of funding sources and partners
involved.
Historically, the largest sources of funding for TIP capital projects have been grants.
Funding for transportation projects is available from federal, state and local
resources. Each funding source has specific rules and guidelines about what types
of projects they will fund, how much of a project will be funded and timelines for
expenditure of funds. Additionally, most grant programs require a funding match,
which means that the City must also contribute funding to the cost of a project.
The City of Kent funds transportation capital projects using the General Fund,
Street Fund, Local Improvement Districts, Transportation Impact Fees, Business
and Occupation Tax, Solid Waste Utility tax, and grant revenue from local, state
and federal governments. One of the reasons the TIP is updated annually is
because many of these revenue sources are so closely tied to the health of the
economy they can be somewhat unpredictable.
Document structure
Each project or program listed in the TIP includes an estimated cost, the amount of
funding secured or unsecured and the funding source(s). If grant funding has been
secured from a specific source, it is identified. Projects listed that are necessary to
accommodate growth and allow the City to maintain its adopted Levels of Service
may be funded in part by transportation impact fees. The costs for projects
programmed in the first three years of the TIP have been developed with a higher
level of certainty whereas those in the latter three years have been developed with
less specificity, as those projects are generally less defined.
iv
Requirements
State law requires that each city develop a local TIP and that it be updated annually
(RCW 35.77.010). It represents an important planning component under the State’s
Growth Management Act. The TIP may be revised at any time during the year by a
majority of the Council, after a Public Hearing.
In order to compete for transportation funding grants from Federal and State
sources, granting agencies require that projects be included in the TIP. The State’s
Safe Routes to School (SRTS) program, for example, requires that potential
projects be included in the TIP in order to be eligible for funding.
The Six Year TIP is also required to be consistent with the transportation element of
the Comprehensive Plan pursuant to RCW 35.77.010.
Changes to the TIP
The City updated its Comprehensive Plan in 2015. The first six years of the
Comprehensive Plan are financially constrained, meaning that secured funding is
demonstrated within an approved budget or similarly approved funding action.
Subsequently, the 2017-2022 TIP has been revised to reflect projects that will likely
be constructed using existing funding sources as well as the City’s historical record
of average grant disbursements. Capital Streets Projects that do not have any
identified funding sources have been removed from the plan. Projects and programs
were reclassified where appropriate.

PROJECT
JUSTIFICATION: Kent Kangley Road (SR 516) is one of the most densely
populated corridors in the City. The section from 104th Ave SE
to 124th Ave SE is a congested Principal Arterial with a
surrounding mixed-use context. It is also a designated truck
route and currently operates at a Level of Service (LOS) E
during the PM Peak. The majority of housing along this portion
of SR 516 is high-density multifamily that generates a
substantial amount of pedestrian traffic. This section of Kent
Kangley is a high boarding area for transit and a popular
destination for senior citizens due to the high concentration of
shopping facilities, banks, medical offices and senior housing.
The project area includes two of the highest collision incident

mandate additional north-south arterial capacity. This project
provides some relief for South 180th Street, South 196th Street,
and South 212th Street intersections along West Valley Highway.
It also provides improved access to the South 196th Street
corridor from industrial development along 72nd Avenue South
by constructing the missing link between South 200th Street and
South 196th Street. This roadway connection provides a direct
link from the existing Fire Station on 72nd Avenue South to the
196th Street grade separated corridor over both the BNSF and
UPRR mainline railroad tracks, dramatically improving
emergency response times to a large area of the Kent
Manufacturing/Industrial Center and warehouse land uses.

DESCRIPTION: Purchase and install a master signal controller unit capable of
supporting flashing yellow left turn arrow (FYLTA) displays for
permitted left turns. This project will also purchase and install
traffic signal controllers for up to 29 individual intersections.
Traffic signals will be modified at up to 14 intersections to
display FYLTA signal indications for permissive left turn
movements.
PROJECT COST: Preliminary Engineering ........... $5,000
Right of Way Acquisition ................ $0
Construction ..................... $392,000
TOTAL ............................. $397,000
Funded .............................. $397,000
FUNDING
SOURCE(S): Federal Highway Safety Improvement Program
PROJECT
JUSTIFICATION: The current central traffic signal control system is not
compatible with flashing yellow left turn arrow displays for
permissive left turn movements. This type of signal display has
been demonstrated to be much more readily understood by
motorists and has resulted in reduced collision rates involving
vehicles turning left during permissive left turn signal phases.
The upgrade to the legacy central control system and more
advanced intersection traffic signal controllers will allow greater
operation flexibility and improved transportation system
efficiency.

PROJECT
JUSTIFICATION: The existing roadway system cannot accommodate the current
or forecast east-west traffic volumes between Kent’s East Hill
and the Green River Valley floor. In order to meet transportation
concurrency requirements of the Growth Management Act,
additional east-west vehicle capacity is required. Intersections
along South 208th/212th Street and James/Southeast 240th
Streets are also at or over capacity. Because of existing
development and topographic constraints, it is not feasible to
widen the James/Southeast 240th Street and South 208th/212th
Street ‘corridors’ enough to accommodate forecast traffic
volumes without additional east-west capacity.

PROJECT
JUSTIFICATION: The traffic signals in the recently annexed area of Panther Lake
are not connected to the City’s central traffic signal control
system; hence, they cannot be remotely monitored or managed
from the City’s Traffic Management Center. The intersection
controllers are not capable of displaying flashing yellow left turn
arrow for permissive left turn movements. This type of signal
display has been demonstrated to be much more readily
understood by motorists and has resulted in reduced collision
rates involving vehicles turning left during permissive left turn
signal phases. The integration of these signals into the City’s
signal system will allow operation flexibility and improved

PROJECT
JUSTIFICATION: The City assessed the condition of its street network in 2011. It
was found that many of the streets exhibit deficiencies that
reflect they are beyond their expected performance life and in
need of a maintenance or rehabilitation overlay, or some
amount of reconstruction. Moreover, historically, the amount of
pavement resurfacing, rehabilitation, and reconstruction monies
the City has budgeted each year has been insufficient to address
the deficiencies of its street network. Insufficient budgets to
perform this necessary work results in more expensive
maintenance and rehabilitation options.

PROJECT
JUSTIFICATION: This project is mandated by Title II of the Americans with
Disabilities Act. Title II requires that a public entity must
evaluate its services, programs, policies, and practices to
determine whether they are in compliance with the
nondiscrimination requirements of the ADA. The ADA requires
that an ADA Transition Plan be prepared to describe any
structural or physical changes required to make programs
accessible. The City has conducted a self-evaluation and
prepared a Transition Plan including a prioritized list of projects
to bring itself into compliance with the Federal ADA regulations.
The self-evaluation was conducted in 2005 and needs to be
reviewed and updated. This program begins working on that list
of projects to construct and repair the City’s sidewalk and
street/sidewalk transition zones for accessibility for all users
and begins to address the pedestrian improvements identified
in the Transportation Master Plan. This project can help achieve

Agenda Item: Public Hearing – 5B_
TO: City Council
DATE: June 21, 2016
SUBJECT: Surplus of Utility Equipment and Materials – Public Hearing
SUMMARY: Through daily operations, the utility maintenance crews accumulate
used copper and brass fittings, pipe, wiring, and water meters. Of these
accumulations, approximately 4,000 pounds of copper and brass have a monetary
value when recycled. Many of the water components have lead levels that no longer
meet federal safety standards. Staff proposes that these surplus materials be sold to
local scrap metal vendors.
In addition, our SCADA (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition) system has been
upgraded over the last few years and the back-up generators have been replaced
with diesel powered units that are more reliable and maintain a longer running time
than the obsolete propane generators. Staff proposes that the surplus generators and
ancillary equipment (propane tanks & transfer switch) be sent to an auction house
for sale.
RCW 35.94.040 requires that the city council hold a public hearing and adopt a
resolution to declare public utility equipment as surplus and to establish the condition
for disposition of the equipment that is in the best public interest.
The public hearing will be held this evening. A resolution affirming the sale of the
property will be submitted for council consideration at a future council meeting.
EXHIBITS: 1) 4/28/16 Letter from Steve Craigue
2) 5/10/16 Email from Steve Craigue

Utility Materials Surplus -2016
April 28, 2016
To all concerned,
The following is a brief explanation as to why we are disposing of the attached list of materials.
The items that are marked “lead,” are brass Water department fittings that contain lead. The Reduction
of Lead in Drinking Water Act, enacted on January 4th, 2011, became effective on January 4th, 2014. This
Act bans the use of any brass fittings that contain lead, since 1/4/2014. To be in compliance, we had to
remove these items from the inventory. These items have been replaced with no lead, (or low lead)
fittings that meet the requirements of the Act.
The items that are marked “obsolete”, are no longer being used, or have been replaced with less costly,
more usable inventory. Some items are missing parts, that are no longer available.
The large diameter ductile iron pipe, (damaged) is out-of-round, from being stacked on itself for thirty-
plus years, and is no longer usable.
The generators, propane tanks, and transfer switch, have been replaced with newer diesel powered
units that have longer run times. There has also been some damage to the wiring (by rodents), making
repairs not economical.
As in the past, these items will be disposed of in the best interest of the City. This may be by auction, or
through the bid process with the scrap dealers.

EXHIBIT A
As we discussed at our May 5 meeting at your office, our request for additional budget is based on the
following bulleted items:
When we originally estimated the project duration we anticipated being on the project for roughly 9
months. Additionally, our estimate did not include any contingency, salary increases, or added time for
weather days or days added by change order. Our average anticipated monthly burn rate was just over
$60K.
It now looks like the project will take approximately 11 months to complete. Based on calculations we
made at our May 5 meeting, we agreed that it looked like roughly $105K is needed to account for the
additional time. It is also noted that the majority of the waterline inspection was done by a City
inspector. This resulted in a decrease to KBA invoices for approximately two months and resulted in a
savings in consultant costs to the City of approximately $25K ($105K ‐ $80K) – the amount of the
increase we originally requested).
Other things to consider that resulted in our request: Staheli overran their inspection budget for the
CIPP liner and Terracon has a minor overrun in materials testing.
In conclusion, a summary of our request boils down to:
Weather days
11 change order days added
Suspension of work while we wait for a paving weather window
Additional suspension of work anticipated for the roadway cure time before channelization can
be applied
I also note that our request allows for very little slippage in the remaining work.
I appreciate the opportunity to provide additional support for our request. If you need any additional
information please let me know.
Regards,
Sam

AGREEMENT REGARDING ALTERNATIVES AND PROPERTY ACQUISITION
Milwaukee II Levee Improvement Project
River Mile 24.04 to 24.25, Right Bank
THIS AGREEMENT REGARDING ALTERNATIVES AND PROPERTY
ACQUISITION (“Agreement”) relating to the Milwaukee II Levee, River Mile 24.04 to 24.25,
Right Bank, is entered into on the last date signed below by and between the CITY OF KENT, a
Washington municipal corporation (“City”), and KING COUNTY FLOOD CONTROL ZONE
DISTRICT, a quasi-municipal corporation of the State of Washington (“District”) (collectively,
the "Parties").
RECITALS
A. King County, Washington, through the Water and Land Resources Division of the
King County Department of Natural Resources and Parks, as service provider to the District
pursuant to an interlocal agreement with the District, operates and maintains a major portion of
the Green River levee system.
B. The Milwaukee II Levee (“Levee”) is a key part of the Green River levee system.
The District desires to improve the Levee to provide improved flood protection and scour
protection, to enable certification and secure necessary land rights (the Levee improvement will
hereafter be referred to as the “Project”). The area of the Project is the right bank of the Green
River from River Mile 24.04 to 24.25.
C. The District has included the Project in its CIP and budget, in a total amount of
$8,500,000. The Parties believe that the estimated cost and expense of planning, design,
property acquisition and construction of the Project will not exceed this total amount. The City
has agreed to construct the Project, in order to provide for the safety of residents and businesses
that are protected by the Levee. The Parties desire to construct the Project as soon as possible,
with a goal of construction in 2017.
D. The preliminary plan for the Project is to increase the height of the Levee to
achieve the Lower Green River System-Wide Improvement Framework’s provisional flood
protection goal of 500-year or 18,800 cfs, plus three feet of freeboard. Before determining the
final plan for the Project, the Parties desire to prepare an analysis and study of design and
construction alternatives for the Project, and select a preferred alternative for recommendation to
the District. The Parties further intend that after the District selects a design for the Project, the
Parties will negotiate and enter into an Agreement regarding design and construction of the
Project.
482198.5 | 361395 | 0001 -2-
E. By Resolution No. FCD2015-07.2, adopted on July 13, 2015, the District
determined that the flood control improvements included in the Resolution generally contribute
to the objectives of the District’s comprehensive plan of development. In that Resolution, the
District also approved funding for the Project.

toe/scour protection and certification, and which include, but not be limited to,
alignment and location of any floodwall and a comparison of the cost, benefits
and impacts of an earthen levee versus a floodwall.
iii. Criteria for analyzing, comparing and ranking each Alternative.
iv. A conceptual level cost estimate to relocate South 259th Street
landward from the riverbank, and to install salmon habitat structures and features

construed as waiving any immunity granted to the City, the District, or King County, under state
statute, including chapters 86.12 and 86.15 RCW, as to any other entity.

Party’s immunity under industrial insurance, Title 51 RCW, as respects the other Party only, and

other Party as an additional insured.
11. Entire Agreement; Amendment. This Agreement, together with Exhibit A,
represents a full recitation of the rights and responsibilities of the Parties and may be modified
only in writing and upon the consent of both Parties. Should any conflict exist between the terms
of this Agreement and the terms of Exhibit A, this Agreement shall control.

the benefit of and are binding upon the Parties and their respective successors in interest and
assigns.

Agenda Item: Consent Calendar – 7J _
TO: City Council
DATE: June 21, 2016
SUBJECT: Primary Data Center Assessment and Improvement Project – Authorize
SUMMARY: The City’s primary data center is currently located at Fire Station 74 in
Kent, WA. The IT Department has secured the Administration Office’s support to
have the King County Institutional Network (iNet) host our primary data center
operations at the Sabey Data Center/DC facility in Tukwila, Washington.
The Sabey facility has positioned itself as one of the premier data center co-location
and turnkey infrastructure providers on the West Coast. In the event of a natural or
manmade disaster, moving the data center to Sabey allows IT to concentrate its
efforts on restoration of business systems, applications, and data. This would
remove the additional burden IT and Facilities face by also needing to address
restoration of data center infrastructure, hardware, and equipment.
Moving to this new location provides the City with increased infrastructure
redundancy and a stronger Disaster Recover Business Continuity capability. The
Sabey move significantly improves our reliability and security posture and provides
for efficient future expansion and scalability.

• 2016 Expenditures
o Implementation Cost - $37,750
*Reallocation of 2016 budget approved for Network Expansion
o Recurring Monthly Charges - $5,600
*Covered by budget savings realized through the MDC/Mobile Data
Computer project.
• 2017 - 2018 Expenditures
Recurring Monthly Charges - $5,600
*Proposed biennial budget increase to the ‘17-‘18 IT Operating Budget
MOTION: Authorize the Mayor to execute all documents necessary to enter
into a three-year contract with King County to establish the Sabey Data
Center in Tukwila, Washington as the City’s new primary data center
facility.

IT Department – Position Paper
Executive Overview
Date: 04/07/16
TOPIC TITLE: Primary Data Center Assessment & Improvement Project
SITUATION/POSITION
The City’s Primary Data Center is currently located at Fire Station 74 in Kent, Washington. The Information Technology Department is evaluating moving
the City’s Primary Data Center to Sabey in Tukwila, Washington. Moving to this new location provides the City with increased infrastructure
redundancy and a stronger Disaster Recover Business Continuity Strategy (DRBC)* along with security and reliability improvements.
Having a separate site for infrastructure and data will enable IT to fully implement our DRBC strategy. Since Sabey is a Tier 3 data center, it has numerous
redundancies built into their data center, from multiple generators to multiple Internet Service Provider (ISP) options, and earthquake retrofitting.
In a disaster recovery situation, this allows IT to concentrate their efforts on restoration of business systems, applications and data rather than applying
IT resources to restoring the data center infrastructure, hardware and equipment. This will allow for the continued operations of the City of Kent during an
event. In a natural disaster, a commercial data center will have more resources to restore infrastructure quicker should damage occur to equipment or
hardware.
Sabey is also in the process of building a data center in Eastern Washington allowing off site backups which aligns with the City of Kent’s DRBC strategy.
*A Disaster Recovery Business Continuity strategy (DRBC) is a documented process and set of procedures to recover and protect business IT infrastructure in the event of a disaster.

business systems if move occurs
• Look into leasing 74 space to RFA for their data center (potential sub project)
• Equipment purchases will need to be considered in the schedule and budget
• Move- telephony reconfiguration (primary, secondary sites, DR)
Resources:
*RASIC – Responsible, Approval, Support, Informed, Consulted
• TS - All
• SS – All
• Stay – facilities
• Both - RFA
• Mike, Derek
Risks/Issues:
• Redundant path ---plan and timing of things will be critical
• Someone on the project will be assigned to fulfill the Quality Assurance role. This role will continually
evaluate and assess project risks. The project will manage risks using best practice risk management
practices and take actions to mitigate against these risks. Risks will be logged and managed through the
project SharePoint site. Sub-project risks will be escalated to the Project Manager If they potentially
impact the overall project scope, schedule or budget.
• When moving equipment there is always the possibly of damage/malfunction. Will be included in the risk
mitigation plans.
• The Pro/Con document will outline risk and issues associated with each of the options (move vs stay)
Recommendations:
• Move systems, equipment, applications move in a staged approach
Exclusions:
• Transforming existing systems to a new technology during migration.
• Cloud hosted services (storage and compute) – budget constraints
Start/End Dates:
• March 1, 2016
• January 1, 2017 –in new space and running
• Schedule
Estimated Development and/or Deployment Costs:
• The cost projections include costs for the related sub-projects. This includes hardware refresh of end-of-
life equipment where applicable. The costs also cover the new infrastructure including:
• Server racks, power and security
• Network core
• Security items (firewalls)
• Storage devices to allow the migration of data
• Multiple Vendor services
Operational Impact:
• Potentially moving entire data center. Applications, systems will be put offline and there will be network
outtages.
• If data center moves, then resources will be allocated after hours and over the weekend. Overtime may
be required and operations workload (tickets) may be impacted during parts of this project.

Agenda Item: Consent Calendar – 7K_
TO: City Council
DATE: June 21, 2016
SUBJECT: Agreement with Community Connectivity Consortium for C3 High
Speed Fiber Optic Ring Extension Project – Authorize
SUMMARY: This agreement is between the C3/Community Connectivity
Consortium, the University of Washington, and contributing project members,
such as Kent, for C3 to design, provision, and deliver a high speed optical network
around and beyond Lake Washington. The project includes pathway, conduit,
fiber, and electronics to build and operate a high speed Dense Wave Division
Multiplex (DWDM) optical network connecting the Westen-Seattle, UW-Bothell
Campus, the City of Bellevue, the King County Regional Communications and
Emergency Coordination Center/RCECC, Renton, Valley Communications Center,
Kent, and the King County Data Center/KDCD at Sabey Campus in Tukwila.
In conjunction with the other participating members of C3, for its part, the City of
Kent is making an in-kind asset contribution of shared network equipment costs
estimated to be approximately $3,500 - $4,500, right-of-way/conduit system
access, and spare fiber optic cable use of approximately 59,300 feet.
*See In-Kind Asset Contribution table on the next page
Current project schedules forecast completion of the ring in mid-to-late Q4 2016
due in large part to the highly collaborative effort by impacted C3 members. It
should be noted that Kent’s participation and contribution would not be possible if
it weren’t for foresight and follow-through of our current and past City Councils,
Tom Brubaker—Kent City Attorney, Tim LaPorte—Kent Public Works Director, and
the IT Department for showing the initiative to have spare conduit and dark fiber
placed in the City’s right-of-way whenever public works projects were being
planned and executed on non-fiber specific projects.
MOTION: Authorize the Mayor to execute all documents necessary to enter
into an agreement with the Community Connectivity Consortium to design,
provision, and deliver a high speed optical network extension that includes
the City of Kent, subject to terms and conditions acceptable to the City
Attorney and Information Technology Director.

B. Active Electronics
1. Base System Description. The base system hardware includes chassis, system
management hardware and software, amplifiers, and filters. The base system will provide
the following capabilities:
• A DWDM system with 80 wave capacity.
• Each wave is capable of supporting Ethernet services ranging in speed from 1 to
100 Gigabit per second (“Gbps”), depending on the equipment purchased.
• 40 waves will be allocated to UW.
• 40 waves will be allocated to C3.
2. Ethernet Services Description. The initial C3 investment includes one Ethernet service
switch at each Node site as follows:
• Sixteen 1 Gigabit Ethernet (“GE”) services will be available to C3 members from
any Node Site to any Node Site on the ring.
• Six of the C3 waves will be used for the 16x1GE services.
• Four of the C3 waves will be made available to King County in exchange for
funding of a node site to be installed and operated at the Valley Communications
Center as detailed in the Project Budget Table below, leaving 30 waves available
for C3’s future allocation.
All services on the network will be path protected at layer 1 to survive fiber breaks. This
protection is provided by an Optical Path Protection Module, which protects services at the
per-wave level. The services are demarked at the client port on the node. All base system
and optional services will be provisioned with path protection as a standard. There will be
no option to have unprotected services on the backbone.

D. Payments
C3 and King County will provide funding to UW for project nonrecurring costs as outlined above
in the Project Budget Detail table.
• C3 will pay to UW a one-time fee of $133,900 within 30 days of the Effective
Date.
• King County will pay to UW a one-time fee of $50,000 within 30 days of the
Effective Date.
Regarding recurring maintenance and operations fees to be paid by C3, payment shall be as
follows. Subsequent to the Acceptance Date, and on the annual anniversary of the Acceptance
Date thereafter, an annual recurring maintenance and operations fee of $29,520 ($2,460 x 12
months) as outlined above in the Project Budget Detail Table, plus any additional recurring fees as
identified in section IV.B, will be invoiced by UW to C3. Payment for the entire annual amount is
due within 30 days of invoice. If C3 fails to make timely payment, UW may charge one percent
(1%) per month on the amount due until paid in full. Should the payments of recurring fees to
UW become more than 360 days past due, UW may choose to discontinue any services provided
on the C3 Optical Network System without affecting any other rights or obligations of the parties
to this Project.
E. Completion and Acceptance
UW will make reasonable efforts to provide all functionality contemplated in this agreement
within 120 days of receipt of equipment from the manufacturer. Testing and acceptance will be
considered complete as of the Acceptance Date, as defined in Appendix F.
V. Optical System Equipment Refreshes
The initial C3 optical system equipment (to include the optical system equipment at additional
Node Sites) will have an expected life of 7 years. This expected life period will begin on the
Acceptance Date and end 7 years after the Acceptance Date (“the Initial Optical System
Equipment Term”). In conjunction with the completion of the Initial Optical System Equipment
Term, and thereafter on each anniversary of that date, UW will evaluate the optical system
equipment to determine if its useful life can be extended an additional year. Upon UW’s
determination that the useful life of the optical system equipment can no longer be extended, UW
will consult with C3 to develop a new system design and quote for a technical refresh of the
optical system equipment. Such costs for the technical refresh of the core equipment, and the
available capacity of the resulting system, shall be apportioned 50% to UW, 50% to C3. As with
this Agreement for the original system, any additional costs associated with network services
provisioned on the resulting core system shall accrue to the party (UW, C3, or the Participating
Agency) requesting the network services. These provisions shall also apply to any subsequent
technical refreshes.
In the event C3 or UW decides not to fund its percentage of the core equipment, the remaining
party (C3 or UW) may choose to fund the entire technical refresh, and as a result retain 100% of
the available capacity of the resulting system. If C3 declines to fund its percentage of the core
equipment refresh, UW will retain rights of use and access to all fiber segments and node site use
in accordance with the overall terms and conditions of this Agreement. If UW declines to fund its
13
percentage of the core equipment refresh, C3 will retain rights of use and access to fiber segments
under the control of UW, and all UW Lead Agency responsibilities as defined in section III.A (1-
5) will end.
VI. Agreement Term
A. Term. This Agreement shall be effective as of the date when it has been executed by all parties
(“Effective Date”) and continue in full force and effect for twenty years from the Effective Date
(“Initial Agreement Term”), and will be automatically renewed in 5 year increments (“Renewal
Periods”) unless terminated in accordance with the provisions below.
B. Termination. This Agreement may be terminated at any time upon the unanimous written
agreement of all of the parties to this Agreement. In addition, any party may terminate this
Agreement at the end of the Initial Agreement Term or at the end of any 5-year Renewal Period.
To terminate the Agreement as allowed by this paragraph, a party must provide a written notice of
termination to all other parties at least 180 days in advance of the end of the Initial Agreement
Term or applicable Renewal Period.
C. Disposition of Equipment. In the event this Agreement is terminated prior to the end of the
Initial Agreement Term or any Renewal Period, UW shall redeliver the portion of optical
equipment funded by C3 and King County and cancel all manufacturer’s maintenance contracts.
Whereas C3 funding supports a portion of the core equipment and may support a portion of the
technical equipment refresh, UW will work in partnership with C3 to determine the most equitable
redistribution of equipment. Costs for transporting or shipping will be paid by C3 and King
County respectively. UW will incur no liability on account of any such termination.
VII. Apportionment of Liability
A. Liability
1. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, each party shall defend, indemnify, and hold
harmless the other parties, including their officers, officials, employees, agents, and regents, from
and against any claim alleging harm, damage, injury, or loss to any person or property to the
extent such claim arises out of or results from its own, or its employees’ or agents’, negligent acts
or omissions, whether during construction or after completion of the project.
2. If a party uses contractors or subcontractors for work pursuant to this Agreement, then either
(a) the party agrees that its obligations in section VII.A above will include responsibility for
claims arising from the performance of such contractors and subcontractors, or (b) the party will
include in its contract with any such contractor or subcontractor a provision requiring the
contractor or subcontractor to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless the other parties, including
their officers, officials, employees, agents, and regents from and against any claim arising from the
contractor’s or subcontractor’s performance.
3. The indemnity in section VII.A above is specifically and expressly intended to constitute a
waiver of each party’s immunity under the Washington Industrial Insurance Act, RCW Title 51,
(a) only between and with regard to the parties, (b) only for work done by a party, and (c) only to
the extent necessary to provide the indemnified party or parties with a full and complete indemnity
14
of claims made by the indemnitor’s employees. The parties acknowledge that these provisions
were specifically negotiated and agreed upon by them.
B. Worker Insurance
Each party to this Agreement shall ensure that it and all persons performing work on its behalf,
including without limitation project suppliers and subcontractors, maintain in effect at all times
during the Work, coverage or insurance in accordance with the applicable laws relating to
worker’s compensation and employer’s liability insurance (including, but not limited to, the
Washington Industrial Insurance Act and the laws of the state in which any such person was
hired), regardless of whether such coverage or insurance is mandatory or merely elective under the
law. Each party shall furnish such assurance and evidence of such coverage or insurance (such as
copies of insurance policies and Certificates of Compliance issued by the Washington State
Department of Labor and Industries) as Participating Agencies may request.
C. General Liability Insurance.
Each party to this Agreement shall maintain in full force and effect throughout the term of this
Agreement, a minimum of Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000) liability insurance for property
damage and bodily injury, and shall cause its agents, contractors, and subcontractors to maintain
the same with regard to work under this Agreement. In satisfying the insurance requirements set
forth in this section, a party may self-insure against such risks in such amounts as are reasonable
for a municipality or agency of its size or shall obtain a coverage agreement through a Risk Pool
authorized by Chapter 48.62 RCW which shall provide liability coverage to the party for the
liabilities contractually assumed by the party in this Agreement. At the time of execution of this
Agreement, and prior to commencement of performance of any of the Work, each party shall
furnish, upon request, a Certificates of Insurance as evidence that policies providing insurance (or
self-insurance) with such provisions, coverages and limits are in full force and effect.

Agenda Item: Consent Calendar – 7L_
TO: City Council
DATE: June 21, 2016
SUBJECT: Naden Avenue Properties Surplus Consideration – Authorize
SUMMARY: In 2006, the City began purchasing properties generally bordered by
West Meeker Street, Highway 167, Willis Street, and the Interurban Trail. These
properties are generally known as the Naden Properties. These properties were
purchased in an effort to assemble a campus for a future Kent Aquatics Center.
Following the completion of the aquatic center concept design process in July 2008,
the City Council determined the project would not move forward due in part to the
onset of the recession.
As the region began to recover from the recession, the City began to seek alternative
ways to provide a community aquatic facility. Currently, the City is in partnership with
the YMCA to construct a facility that will include a community aquatic center.
The Naden Properties (as identified by parcel number and on the map in the exhibits)
are no longer needed for their originally intended purpose. An informational public
meeting held in accordance with Chapter 3.12 of the Kent City Code will allow the
Council to determine whether it wants to surplus these properties.

MOTION: In accordance with Chapter 3.12 of the Kent City Code, schedule
an informational public meeting in order to receive public comment to
allow Council to determine whether the Naden Properties (collectively, and
with some exceptions, the properties generally bordered by West Meeker
Street, Highway 167, Willis Street, and the Interurban Trail) will be
surplused.

Agenda Item: Other Business – 8A_
TO: City Council
DATE: June 21, 2016
SUBJECT: Zoning Code Amendment – Medical Marijuana Patient Cooperatives –
Ordinance – Adopt
SUMMARY: Recent changes in state law will introduce a new category of medical
marijuana growing operation called a “patient cooperative,” replacing the existing
category of “medical cannabis collective garden” beginning July 1, 2016. The new
category will allow up to four qualifying patients and/or designated providers to form a
“cooperative” in which marijuana can be collectively grown for personal, medical use
of only the members of the cooperative. The Washington State Liquor and Cannabis
Board will have regulatory oversight of these cooperatives; however, the Board cannot
register a cooperative where prohibited by a local zoning provision. A patient
cooperative must be located within the domicile of one of its members; ergo,
cooperatives may only exist in residential areas. The law does not specify that the
domicile be owned by the member, meaning there is the potential for greater impacts
to rental properties.
Kent’s zoning code does not currently address this new category of patient
cooperatives. The draft ordinance attached rectifies this by repealing the regulations
related to collective gardens and adding a definition and similar zoning regulations for
patient cooperatives as the Council has previously adopted for collective gardens.
Given the potential impacts (particularly with respect to rental properties), as well as
the administrative nature of this change (repealing one type of collective medical
marijuana growing operation and replacing it with another), Planning staff
recommended that this general category of land use remain prohibited in all zoning
districts to the Land Use and Planning Board (“LUPB”), although staff did mention the
availability of other possible options, if the LUPB wished to explore those. The LUPB
declined to vote on other options, and recommended approval of staff’s
recommendation after holding a public hearing on May 23, 2016.

ORDINANCE NO.
AN ORDINANCE of the City Council of the
City of Kent, Washington, amending Title 15 of the
Kent City Code by repealing all sections pertaining
to medical cannabis collective gardens, and
adopting new regulations pertaining to medical
marijuana patient cooperatives.
RECITALS
A. Second Substitute Senate Bill No. 5052, known as the
“Cannabis Patient Protection Act,” was signed into law by Governor Inslee
on April 24, 2015. This Act allows qualifying patients and/or designated
providers who hold valid recognition cards to form a “cooperative” in which
marijuana can be collectively grown for personal, medical use, beginning
July 1, 2016. The Act also repeals the existing category of “collective
gardens,” as defined in RCW 69.51A.085, effective as of July 1, 2016.
B. Medical marijuana patient cooperatives are limited to four or
fewer members; must be registered with the state Liquor and Cannabis
Board; and must be located within the domicile of one of the members of
the cooperative.
C. Second Engrossed Second Substitute House Bill 2136, signed
by Governor Inslee on June 30, 2015, further clarified that the Liquor and
Cannabis Board must deny the registration of a proposed patient
cooperative if the location is prohibited by local zoning ordinance.
1 Amend KCC 15.02 and 15.08 -
Re: Patient Cooperatives
D. Kent’s zoning code does not currently address this new
category of patient cooperatives, requiring an amendment to the city code.
E. On May 5, 2016, the City requested expedited review under
RCW 36.70A.106 from the Washington State Department of Commerce
regarding the City’s proposed code amendments. The Washington State
Department of Commerce granted the request for expedited review on
_______. No comments were received from State agencies.
F. On May 9, 2016, staff gave an overview of these proposed
amendments before the Economic and Community Development
Committee.
G. On May 9, 2016, during a workshop meeting, staff received
authorization from the Land Use and Planning Board (“LUPB”) to draft an
ordinance amending Kent’s zoning code to address collective gardens and
patient cooperatives.
H. On May 20, 2016, the City conducted and completed
environmental review under the State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA).
The City’s SEPA Responsible Official issued a Determination of
Nonsignficance for the proposed code amendments.
I. On May 23, 2016, the LUPB held a public hearing to consider
the recommendation of Planning staff. Staff did include additional
information to the LUPB regarding the availability of options other than
total prohibition, if the LUPB wished to explore those. The LUPB declined
to vote on these other options, and at the close of the public hearing the
LUPB moved by unanimous vote to recommend to the full City Council the
adoption of the draft amendments, as presented by staff.
2 Amend KCC 15.02 and 15.08 -
Re: Patient Cooperatives
J. On June 13, 2016, the Economic and Community
Development Committee considered the ordinance repealing the sections
of city code pertaining to medical cannabis collective gardens and
addressing the new category of patient cooperatives, and recommended
approval of the ordinance, as proposed by staff and approved by the LUPB,
but directed that matter be placed under “other business” on the Council
agenda so that all Councilmembers would have a chance to discuss the
matter prior to voting on it. The matter was subsequently considered by
the full City Council at its June 21, 2016, meeting.
K. While collective marijuana growing has never been authorized
in Kent, the Kent Police Department (“KPD”) has investigated numerous
illegal marijuana grow operations in housing units all over the City. KPD
has noted that residential “grow houses” often pose multiple
environmental concerns, including, but not limited to: excessive power
consumption; increased mold and mildew; pervasive odors; and structural
damage.
L. Furthermore, these impacts are magnified by the fact that
these grow houses are often rental units that are rendered uninhabitable
after being used for the indoor growing and cultivation of marijuana.
M. The City Council recognizes that approved medical uses of
marijuana may provide relief to patients suffering from debilitating or
terminal conditions, but because of the potential secondary impacts, the
establishment of facilities for the collective growth, production, and
processing of medical marijuana in residential units is not appropriate for
any zoning district within the City.
N. The City Council further understands that while the medical
benefits of marijuana have been recognized by the state legislature,
3 Amend KCC 15.02 and 15.08 -
Re: Patient Cooperatives
marijuana remains a Schedule I controlled substance under both the
federal Controlled Substances Act (CSA) and the Washington State
Uniform Controlled Substances Act (Chapter 69.50 RCW), and any
possession and use of marijuana is still a violation of federal law.
O. The City Council has determined that the passage of a
permanent zoning code amendment that shall prohibit the establishment of
residential medical marijuana patient cooperatives in all zoning districts of
the City will serve the public health, safety and welfare.
NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF KENT,
WASHINGTON, DOES HEREBY ORDAIN AS FOLLOWS:

FINANCE
• The City’s 2016 Bond Refunding process has successfully come to a close. The final
delivery, settlement, and closing procedures took place as scheduled on Wednesday
morning, June 15. The City refunded two separate bonds, the City’s 2008 General
Obligation bond and the City of Kent Public Facilities District’s 2008 Sales Tax
bond. The savings generated from this refunding generated nearly $10.7 million over
the life of the bonds. As required by City of Kent Ordinance, the City’s finance director
will provide a final bond refunding update to the Operations Committee on June 21.
• The State Auditor’s Office (SAO) has nearly completed their audit of the City’s 2015
financial statements. We are expecting SAO to issue the audit letter, required for
submission of our Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (CAFR) to the Government
Finance Officers Association (GFOA) award program, on June 27. GFOA awarded a
Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting to the City of Kent for
its CAFR for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014. That was the 14th year the City
had achieved this prestigious award. Prior to 2014, the city had received the GFOA
award for the years ended 1994 through 2007, but had not applied since 2007. In order
to be awarded a Certificate of Achievement, a governmental unit must publish an easily
readable and efficiently organized comprehensive annual financial report. This report
must satisfy both generally accepted accounting principles and applicable legal
requirements. A Certificate of Achievement is valid for a period of one year only. We
believe our current Comprehensive Annual Financial Report will meet the Certificate of
Achievement requirements.

• Significant crime activities/arrests/investigations
o On June 3, there was an attempted vehicle theft from the Kent Chamber of
Commerce. A suspect was observed by alert Chamber employees, trying to steal a
vehicle belonging to one of them. She was confronted by employees and fled south
on Fourth Avenue South. The suspect was later located near the old Kent
Elementary, across from the station, by a Sound Transit officer who was flagged
down by a citizen. She was identified by a witnesses and it was later determined that
she had dumped a key ring full of shaved keys, including the one she used during
this incident, just in front of Mexico Lindo restaurant. Additionally, the backpack she
had secreted in an alley off of Fourth Avenue contained several credit cards not
Page 6 of 10
belonging to her and the shirt she had changed out of after fleeing. She was booked
for vehicle trespass and possession of vehicle theft tools.
o On June 4, officers responded to a reported stabbing at the Dollar Tree on Pacific
Hwy South. The 54 year old male claimed that he had come out of the store when a
male approached him and stabbed him in the neck. Fire responded, bandaged him
up, and transported him to Harborview. Detectives responded to assist. Patrol
located the 34 year old suspect who claimed that he had been praying to Jesus,
when the victim shouted at him to stop praying. An argument ensued and the
suspect cut the victim. The suspect was arrested and the victim was stitched up at
the Hospital. The injury was not life threatening.
o On June 4, at approximately 10:39 p.m., patrol was dispatched to the El Habanero
Bar located on West Meeker Street in reference to a welfare check on a male who
was requesting aid. Upon arrival, the door Security Guard approached responding
officers and gave them a knife that was used by the suspect to stab two victims
inside the bar. All parties were gone on arrival. Three involved parties showed up at
Valley Medical Center with stab wounds to the torso. Video evidence showed two of
those stabbed were victims, while the third was actually an accomplice to the main
suspect. It appears this accomplice was hit by “friendly fire” during the altercation
and was also stabbed.
o On June 4, there was a vehicle theft from 112th and 269th. This incident created two
calls for service as police and fire originally responded for a vehicle in Lake Meridian
near the boat launch. The officer secured the boat and assisted fire in determining
the vehicle was unoccupied and was about 75’ out in the lake. Around the same time
a vehicle theft report was called in from the location listed above. The owner of the
vehicle was in Las Vegas at the time of the theft, which was sometime the night prior
to being found in the lake. Fire attached a cable to the vehicle and it was removed
from the lake without incident by the responding tow company.
o On June 6, around 2 a.m., officers were dispatched to the report of a physical assault
occurring in the 22400 block of Benson Rd SE. While in route to the scene, officers
learned the suspect was threatening to kill his girlfriend and himself and was possibly
high on drugs. Once officers arrived, it was discovered that there was a no contact
order between the suspect and victim. Officers also learned that the suspect may be
armed with a pistol, but no pistol was seen. He also had a DOC warrant for escape.
Both the suspect and victim did not have their cellphones on. We surrounded the
residence and at one point the suspect walked out the front door. We called out to
him and he closed the door on us. We attempted to call him out via PA and used a
patrol NFDD (Noise Flash Distraction Device), but he did not respond. Based on his
criminal history, unknown if the victim was injured inside and the possibility of a
weapon being involved, SWAT was called out to the scene. The suspect’s criminal
history showed convictions for order violation against the same victim, robbery and
firearms violations. Once SWAT arrived, the suspect and victim decided to come out.
Suspect was arrested and transported to King County Jail. The victim was
uncooperative. A firearm was recovered inside the apartment.
o On June 8, during a routine traffic stop on a vehicle for a non-operational stop lamp
the driver fled from the vehicle, leaving his passenger behind. The officer saw a gun
in the car and after removing the passenger he secured the vehicle. Through the
investigation the officer was able to identify the driver and obtain a search warrant
Page 7 of 10
on the car. The search yielded a loaded 9mm handgun. This case was referred to SIU
(Special Investigations Unit) for follow-up.
o On June 8, officers were dispatched to a suspicious subject in a vehicle parked in a
city park. When the officer frisked the driver he located a stolen handgun in his
waistband. The subject was arrested for violation of the Uniform Firearms Act
(VUFA).
o On June 10, a suspect was speeding down 104th Ave SE, when patrol attempted to
pull him over. The 35 year old suspect fled as the officer pursued. A couple of
Pursuit Immobilization Technique maneuvers were attempted and the suspect was
ultimately apprehended. The suspect had two prior convictions for Driving Under the
Influence and he was Driving While License Suspended, 1st degree. There were no
reported injuries, but the patrol cars involved received minor damages.
o On June 12, an inmate who is a maximum security high violent inmate was told to
get out of the shower so he could be returned to his cell. He claimed that he could
not get his pants on, due to being handcuffed. Correctional Sergeant told him that
he could put his pants on when he returned to his cell. The inmate opened the door
to the shower, stared at the Sergeant and then tried to hit him with his elbow. The
Sergeant ducked the blow by his elbow and the inmate had to be contained. He was
then returned to his cell. The inmate has already assaulted several inmates and that
is why he is in max-status.
o A suicide subject texted several friends and family members mid-day on Monday,
June 13 stating his intention to kill himself. He was said to be alone inside and had
access to a rifle. He was the focus of a recent child molestation case with Kent. As
police set up containment on the house a muffled bang noise was heard from the
direction of the house in question. Detectives responded to further investigate
possible harassment and VUFA on the subject in an attempt to get a warrant for
residence. PA and phone contact went unanswered and a NFDD was deployed
without effect. Patrol ended up doing recon of house exterior and could observe feet
of a male subject who appeared to be lying on living room floor. Patrol units made
entry to check on subject and found him obviously deceased from a self-inflicted shot
gun wound to the head.
• Major emphasis patrol
o From May 23 - June 5, patrol participated in the National Click it or Ticket seat belt
enforcement campaign.

locate and arrest the High Impact Offender Auto Thieves in Kent and Des Moines.
Several stolen vehicles were recovered and several arrests were made.
o The Special Operations Unit (SOU) spent a lot of time on the water the past few
weekends. We replaced and reset about 18 buoys, and set up the swim area at Lake
Meridian. We began weekend boat patrols Memorial Day weekend. Numerous
vessel inspections were completed and there were no incidents on the water.
o SOU worked with the Parks Dept. and Corrections to clean up a large transient camp
along Naden Ave, as well as another camp on South Central Ave, where one subject
was arrested for illegal camping, trespassing and failing to register as a Sex
Offender. SOU also conducted extra patrols along the Kent Valley Loop Trail and all
Page 8 of 10
the way up to 180th. We made several contacts and received many ‘Thanks” for
