Introduction of an Ordinance Granting a Franchise to Soos Creek Water & Sewer District Chief Administrative Officer, Derek Matheson provided a brief overview of the Ordinance granting franchise to Soos Creek Water & Sewer District which is a special purpose district that provides water and sewer service to both the Panther Lake area as well as portions of the East Hill. Matheson explained that the franchise agreement will authorize the district to construct and maintain infrastructure in City rights-of-way. The draft franchise agreement was based upon the existing franchises with Lake Meridian Water District, Highline Water District and Midway Sewer District. The term is 10 years with automatic renewal unless terminated by either party. Matheson also noted that state law requires franchises to be introduced and Kent City Council - Committee of the Whole Committee of the Whole - Regular Meeting Minutes January 12, 2021 Kent, Washington Page 2 of 3 adopted at separate City Council meetings. With the Committee’s support, staff will include this franchise on the January 19 and February 2 consent calendars for introduction and adoption, respectively. MOTION: Introduction of Ordinance No. 4388, granting a non- exclusive 10-year franchise to construct, maintain, operate, replace and repair a water and sewer system within public rights-of-way of the City of Kent.

RESULT: RECOMMENDED TO COUNCIL BY CONSENSUS Next: 1/19/2021 7:00 PM C. Contract Amendment with Summit Food Services for Inmate Food Services at the City of Kent Correctional Facility - Authorize Kent Police Department Commander, Diane McCuistion spoke about the contract amendment with Summit Food Services for Inmate Food Services at the City of Kent Corrections Facility. She noted that the original agreement was approved by Council back on December 5, 2020 and this amendment is changing the original term of the agreement from 5 years to 3 years, terminating December 31, 2023. This decision was made due to last minute negotiations in which the terms of the contract materially changed. This agreement now has a larger per-meal price increase in the second year (3% instead of 1%), and has increased tiers of discounts for larger inmate population sizes (last price break at population of 160 inmates instead of 125). The projected cost for the first year of performance is the same as the previous version. Councilmember Boyce inquired about the requirement to provide organic foods for inmates. Commander McCuistion indicated that a nutritionally balanced diet is provided and that they accommodate for food allergies, but there is no known requirement to provide organic foods. MOTION: Authorize the Mayor to sign a contract amendment with Summit Food Services to provide inmate food services at the City of Kent Correctional Facility through December 31, 2023, and apply the terms of that amendment retroactively to January 1, 2021, subject to final contract terms and conditions acceptable to the City Attorney and Police Chief.
