E. INFO ONLY: Kent East Hill Operations Center Update and Next Steps
Parks Director, Julie Parascondola presented information on the Kent East Hill
Operations Center.
Parascondola detailed the growth of City staff and infrastructure over the
past 30 years in addition to the growth in the population served.
The Kent East Hill Operations Center project began in 1999 and has had
starts/stops spanning 25 years. The current design includes three front
facing departments that will utilized the newly planned facility to support
critical needs and support to public services.
Options and Next Steps:
City Council Allocated $24.5 Million in the 2023-2024 Adopted Budget to
advance KEHOC Design and Phase Construction, where applicable.
In February, 2023, Council awarded Wagner Architects and Planners the
design award due to their vast knowledge and history of this project.
Although the contract is for the full amount (if we build both floors, etc.), but
are only moving forward in Phases.
At a critical decision point:
Option #1 - go as far as we can with the existing $24.5 mil budget allocated.
No 2nd floor finish, first floor only. Would still build the restroom and locker
facilities, which is a need with the current staff already housed at KEHOC;
dramatic reduction in Public Works staffing who was planning on shifting to
the site from Russell Road; the Kent Police Department would still go up and
use the evidence space with or without the mezzanine. The mezzanine for
KPD wouldn't be built with the $24 million option.
Look to reduce all 2nd floor space as much as possible. If we did build, they'd
be completely empty. Reduce the size of the actual yard paving.
Interior spaces would be completely slimmed down to the most basic finishes
and essentially, basically a shell space to be filled in at a later date.
Option #2 - Allocate an additional $25m to the project to leverage
construction, support maintenance and operational needs, to minimize future
need on the master plan.

Minutes
Worked through a financing option for Council consideration, to address
additional budget needed, that all of the Directors involved in this project and
the Police Chief are in support of, which would alleviate significant burdens
and barriers to public operations and services and will increase efficiency and
effectiveness of these front line departments.
Finance Director, Paula Painter reviewed the project budget and funding
sources - current and modified. The final amount will be based on final
square footage allocation.
Painter detailed the options utilizing fund balance vs. issuing debt. Boyce
prefers not to use debt service, as did Troutner.
Councilmembers expressed support of the plan.
Next steps:
Finalize project budget and phase work, where appropriate
Initial permit submittal by June 15, 2023; final design by December 2023
Bidding May-June 2024 with an estimated construction start by July 2024
2 year construction window, with move in scheduled in 2026
If Council authorizes to move forward with LTGO Bond Financing, additional
paperwork and formal Council action will occur throughout the rest of 2023
to prepare for bond issuance and collection
Once this work has its final path forward, planning work will begin on City
Hall Campus Improvements
NOTE: Councilmember Thomas departed the meeting in the middle of this
presentation due to a medical emergency.
F. City Council Bylaws, Rules, and Procedures — Resolution - Adopt
City Attorney, Tammy White provided the Council with details on all of the
proposed revisions to the existing Resolution No. 2025.
White provided Council with a table comparing the existing resolution with
the proposed resolution in addition to a print out of page 12 of the resolution
highlighting the proposed change regarding subject matter chairs. White
walked the Council through the table.
If adopted, changes will be effective June 1, 2023.
Councilmember Larimer expressed appreciation of the proposed change to
the agenda-setting rules.
White clarified that Workshops are more informational-sharing meetings that
can be utilized for issues that require council receive an extensive
presentation and to provide for more discussion.

Fincher expressed concern that the Committee of the Whole will not allow for
in-depth conversations. White clarified that the pairing of departments
between the first and third meetings will hopefully allow for more in-depth
conversations.
Troutner talked about informational items being better suited for workshops
rather than committee and that having all council members hear action items
allows for the entire council to be informed at the same time.
Larimer expressed concerns over the ability to have comprehensive
presentations and conversations during the committee meetings. Boyce
provided details regarding the ability to utilize workshops for the more
complicated issues.
Chief Administrative Officer, Pat Fitzpatrick indicated that special meetings
and workshops can also be utilized for items requiring additional time.
Fitzpatrick talked about the reasoning behind the move to the Committee of
the Whole, including efficiencies that will be created. Executive Leadership
Team members will be required to attend all Committee of the Whole
meetings to gain an understanding of what all other departments are working
on and to be available to respond to questions.
Council President Boyce talked about the time and effort it takes staff to
compile and present items to the Council and spoke in support of the motion.
Council President Boyce requested a roll call.
Boyce indicated, although Councilmember Thomas is not present, that he
expressed his support of the proposed resolution.

County Veterans, Seniors & Human Services Levy. The contract is not to
exceed $250,000 and funds must be expended (or committed) in 2023.
Hanson talked about the need for this program:
Heat is a growing concern in the Pacific Northwest
Seniors are most at risk to experience heat-related illness and deaths
Between June and August of 2021 there were 157 heat related deaths in
Washington State. 67% of those were people over than 65
Seniors who live alone, are disabled or homebound have significant barriers
to accessing cooling centers
The City's Home Repair program is not able to purchase standalone air
conditioners, fans, or other non-integral "luxury" items
Staff researched other options, including heat pumps and central AC
installation. Primary concerns included the number of people that could be
assisted and the short timeline
Our goal is to purchase and deploy approximately 350 units.
Hanson reviewed the eligibility criteria, marketing plan and how the City will
prioritize requests. Hanson touched on potential supply chain issues.
Hanson indicated the City would work with the Resource Center to try to
avoid duplicate distributions.
Councilmember Larimer requested staff let recipients know that Puget Sound
Energy has grants available to assist with increased energy costs.
Hanson indicated outreach will include communicating via the Meals on
Wheels program and the Senior Center.
Michaud expressed appreciation of the work staff are doing on this project.
MOTION: I move to authorize the Mayor to sign a grant agreement
with King County in the amount of $250,000 to fund the distribution
of portable air conditioning units to eligible seniors, subject to final
terms and conditions acceptable to the Parks Director and City
Attorney.

KENT EAST HILL OPERATIONS CENTER: OPTIONS AND NEXT STEPS
2023 PHASE 2 : WAREHOUSE/ADMIN BUILDING
• City Council Allocated $24.5 Million in the 2023-2024 Adopted Budget to advance KEHOC Design and Phase
Construction, where applicable
• At February 13, 2023 ECD Council Committee, awarded Wagner Architects and Planners the design award due to their
vast knowledge and history of this project. We awarded the contract at the full amount (if we build both floors, etc)
but are only moving forward in Phases, via a NTP.
• Cross departmental staff team working together on this project: Will Moore (City Facilities), Garin Lee (Park
Operations), Dave Brock (Public Works) and AC Eric Hemmen (KPD).
• At a critical decision point — Floor Plan is 95% complete and MEP is 30% complete.
• Option #1 — go as far as we can with the existing $24.5 mil budget allocated. No 2nd floor finish, first floor only.
• Would still build the restroom and locker facilities, which is a need with the current staff already housed at KEHOC
• Dramatic reduction in Public Works staffing who was planning on shifting to the site from Russell Road
• KPD would still go up and use the evidence space with or without the mezzanine. The mezzanine for KPD wouldn't be built with the $24 million option.
• Look to reduce all 2nd floor space as much as possible. If we did build, they'd be completely empty.
• Reduction in the size of the actual yard paving.
• Interior spaces would be completely slimmed down to the most basic finishes and essentially, basically a shell space to be filled in at a later date.
• Option #2 — allocate an additional $25mil to the project to leverage construction, support m/o needs, to minimize future need on the master plan
• Worked through a financing option for Council consideration, to address additional budget needed, that all of the
Directors involved in this project and the Police Chief are in support of, which would alleviate significant burdens and
barriers to public operations and services and will increase efficiency and effectiveness of these front line departments.

NEXT STEPS
• Finalize project budget and phase work, where appropriate
• Initial permit submittal by June 15, 2023; final design by December 2023
• Bidding May-June 2024 with an estimated construction start by July 2024
• 2 year construction window, with move in scheduled in 2026
• If Council authorizes to move forward with LTGO Bond Financing, additional paperwork and formal Council action will
occur throughout the rest of 2023 to prepare for bond issuance and collection
• Once this work has it's final path forward, planning work will begin on City Hall Campus Improvements

O Heat is a growing concern in the Pacific Northwest.
O Seniors are most at risk to experience heat-related illness and deaths.
O Between June and August of 2021 there were 157 heat related deaths in Washington
State. 67% of those were people over than 65.
0 Seniors who live alone, are disabled or homebound have significant barriers to accessing
cooling centers.
The City's Home Repair program is not able to purchase standalone air conditioners, fans,
or other non-integral "luxury" items.
O Staff researched other options, including heat pumps and central AC installation. Primary
concerns included the number of people that could be assisted and the short timeline.
O Our goal is to purchase and deploy approximately 350 units.

5E Model + NGSS: Remote Sensing for Sustainable Local and Space Communities
• Engage: A Case Study (a real-world, local problem that is being monitored/improved by remote
sensing)
• Explore: What is Remote Sensing? Types of remote sensing,
• Explain: Checks for understanding
• Elaborate: Potential problem list / resources, Students choose a problem and research it (Problem
ID protocol), create a remote sensing plan, DRONES, etc. Built in frequent feedback (peer to peer)
• Evaluate: Science-fair type opportunity to share
Summer 2023: 5 MS/HS teachers + curriculum designer
> Hardware experience in UW engineering labs
