AN ORDINANCE of the City Council of the
City of Kent, Washington, declaring an emergency
and amending Chapter 9.02 of the Kent City Code,
entitled "Criminal Code," to: (i) adopt by reference
new civil infractions and crimes enacted by the state
Legislature during its 2021 and 2O22 sessions for
application and enforcement in the City of Kent; and
(ii) make other housekeeping amendments to the
criminal code to update changes made to the
Revised Code of Washington titles, adopt other
misdemeanor crimes that were not previously
adopted by specific reference and adopt Class C
felony crimes that may be used as a basis to support
the crime of criminal attempt or criminal conspiracy,
which is punishable as a gross misdemeanor'
RECITALS
A. During its 2021 and 2022legislative sessions, the Washington
State Legislature adopted a number of bills that added new criminal
provisions to the Revised Code of Washington ("RCW").t The Kent City Code
has adopted by reference a number of state law provisions for application
and enforcement in the City of Kent. Once a state law is adopted by
reference into the Kent City Code, that reference is sufficient for subsequent
amendments the Legislature may make to that state law provision. Through
l These new offenses include: violation of various types of court orders; carrying a
weapon on the state capitol; failure to pay an excise tax; failure to pay or
conversion of funds meant for 9BB behavioral health emergency line; prohibitions
on large capacity magazines, untraceable firearms, and unfinished frames.

Section g.O2.O2O, the Kent City Code has adopted nearly all misdemeanors,
gross misdemeanors, and Class C felonies contained in the RCW' However,
to provide clarity as to new crimes that didn't previously exist, the Kent City
Code is hereby amended to specifically name new state law provisions.
B. Although the City of Kent has broadly adopted by reference
virtually all state criminal statutes through Kent City Code Section 9.02'020,
this ordinance is being presented as an emergency measure out of an
abundance of caution, to address a recent challenge to the Kent Municipal
Court's jurisdiction. While the challenge lacks legal merit, the risk of an
adverse ruling and the gap in services that could emerge while the City
appeals is an undue risk. It is of overwhelming importance that the physical
safety of victims be maintained, and therefore to remove any potential
ambiguity or question of the Municipal Court's ability to enforce protection
orders, this ordinance is advanced as an emergency to be retroactively
effective as of the date each state law adopted by reference took effect. With
respect to the changes applicable to protection orders, that date is July 1,
2022.
C. While updating the criminal code to add these new crimes, staff
made other housekeeping amendments to reflect changes made to the
Revised Code of Washington titles, and incorporated into the ordinance other
misdemeanor crimes that were not previously adopted by specific
reference.2
