Therefore, the issues discussed were of interest to all eight elected officials and of the highest priority for the City. ELT members and staff played an important role during the workshop. Each topic of discussion began with a presentation, including Power Point slides,that provided context, addressed key questions, and framed the Council's discussions. This summary documents the Council's consensus on the five biggest issues on the workshop agenda, i.e., the issues for which Mayor Ralph and her staff were seeking direction from the Council. They are listed below.Two other issues on the agenda did not require Council direction.They were briefings and updates. This summary constitutes the meeting's minutes. Page 1 of 7 SUMMARY OF THE COUNCIL'S CONSENSUS AGREEMENTS 1. STATE ASSISTANCE IS NEEDED TO SUSTAIN PUBLIC SAFETY RESOURCES The foremost question that the Councilmembers answered during the discussion of public safety was this: "What are the options for generating sustainable funding for public safety?" The Council and Mayor Ralph agreed that all of them need to join together to advocate at the State Legislature for state funding to support local efforts to ensure public safety. Because they recognize that this is a statewide issue, they also agreed to work to place state funding for public safety on the 2025 legislative agenda of the Washington Association of Cities(AWC),and to organize South King County cities, including Auburn, Renton,and Federal Way,to advocate to AWC and the legislature for statewide funding. In focusing on Olympia,the Council agreed that now is not the time to bring a public safety ballot measure to Kent's voters. These facts, presented by Police Chief Raf Padilla and echoed by the Mayor, were central to Council's consensus agreement: ■ Kent currently has the lowest ratio of officers per 1,000 residents of any city in the Puget Sound region. With 167 officers, Kent' ratio is 1.2 officers per thousand. ■ Today's ratio is less than the ratio of officers per one thousand residents in Kent during 2018. ■ The Police Department is maximizing its resources to prevent crime and to stop crimes while they are occurring.Yet response times must be improved, more prevention patrols are needed, and greater traffic enforcement, including speed limit enforcement, is needed because of an increase in speed-related collisions. ■ Chief Padilla estimated that to strengthen services in these areas, the department needs 200 police officers, thirty-three more than the current number. One officer would cost the City approximately $165,000—200,000 annually. That does not include the costs of the patrol car (estimated at$100,000 plus maintenance and future replacement costs), uniform, equipment, or overtime. ■ Given property valuations in Kent,raising propertytaxes would not provide sustainable funding for public safety. For example,to raise$10 million,the City would have to raise property taxes 30%, meaning that the average household would pay$159 more per year. ■ Council unanimously expressed support for going back to the State Legislature to seek councilmanic authority to raise the sales tax. 2. COUNCIL ENDORSES A NO GROWTH BUDGET FOR 2025-126 The principal question that the Council answered during the discussion of the 2025-'26 biennial budget was this: "Is the Council willing to adopt a no growth budget?" Council agreed to do so. Councilmembers also agreed to explore the option of raising the City's $10 million cap on the Business and Occupation (B&O) Tax beginning with the 2025'26 budget, and/or making other adjustments to the B&O tax structure.The option,with a number of variations,will be discussed during a budget workshop that Mayor Ralph and Finance Director Paula Painter will organize for Council during the budget process. Page 2 of 7 Paula theorized that if the cap were raised to $20 million for businesses with a certain number of employees and/or a certain profit margin, 16-19 businesses that currently take advantage of the $10 million cap could see their B&O taxes increase. None of these businesses are headquartered in Kent;they are more likely to be nationwide organizations headquartered elsewhere. The Council's consensus agreement was based on the fact that the structural imbalance in Kent's budget will lead to deficits of a couple million dollars per year starting in 2025. Reiterating a point made during the public safety discussion, the Council does not believe that a property tax increase at this time would provide sufficient revenue to prevent projected deficits. A concern was expressed that a status quo budget might lead to the stagnation of services. Staff assured the Council that they continue to look for even more creative and efficient ways to deliver services to maximize the use of resources and maintain high quality standards. Councilmember Bill Boyce urged the City to look beyond the upcoming biennial budget to forecasts three, six, or more years into the future. The long-term picture may differ from what the City is experiencing today. Mayor Ralph reiterated that if, during the 2025226 budget process, Councilmembers wish to propose a new program, the City would need to find existing programs to reduce or eliminate. This prompted Councilmembers to observe that the City's services are valuable and beneficial,which would make it difficult to identify or agree on any to be cut. 3. COUNCIL AND ADMINISTRATION SHARE AN INTEREST IN A SUSTAINABLE TRANSPORTATION SYSTEM The City Council appeared to be impressed by and supportive of Public Works Director Chad Bieren's comprehensive presentation on the City's transportation system, including the vision and goals, planning structure,community outreach,2024 Local Road Safety Plan,and challenges,among them street light and signal damage, wire theft, and the federal mandate regarding retro reflectivity line striping to guide self- driven cars. The presentation focused on two themes: 1) the City's transportation system needs approximately$16 million per year for maintenance but current revenues supply roughly one-third of that amount; and 2) unlike the City's utility funds (Water, Sewer, and Drainage), the Street Fund has no dedicated capital funding, as maintenance needs and staff salaries consume the entire fund. Federal and/or state grant dollars provide available money for new construction, while maintenance dollars are used as required grant-match. The Council and Administration share an interest in a sustainable system. A key component of sustainability currently is the City's success in obtaining grants,a few of which pay the full cost of a project. Chad stated that the City's priorities are often based on the eligibility of grants to pay for certain projects. During this discussion a theme that underlined the discussions of public safety and the budget came into sharper focus: In a time of limited resources and not many viable options to secure more, the City must be flexible, resilient, creative,focused, and patient. 4. ON THE ISSUE OF AFFORDABLE HOUSING, KENT FACES A UNIQUE CHALLENGE The Council's discussion with Kurt Hanson and Kristen Holdsworth of ECD illuminated a unique challenge facing the City. Kent has disproportionately more extremely low income, very low income, and low- income housing than many other cities in the region, and less housing that is workforce or above market rate. The Comprehensive Plan update process includes a new state law requirement to plan for and accommodate housing at all levels of affordability.Through the King County process to identify needs by Page 3 of 7 income level, it has been confirmed that, like other South King County Cities, Kent is in a unique position. Of the 10,200 new housing units required,60%need to be affordable for workforce and market rate levels of income (80%AMI). The Council and Kristen discussed the City's primary needs: 1) place housing by transit; 2) help generate homeownership opportunities; and 3) preserve naturally occurring affordable housing (NOAH). In addition, Kristen highlighted numerous ways in which Kent is trying to attract a wider range of housing options and the City's leadership among the South King Housing and Homelessness Partners(SKHHP).One illustration of that leadership is Kent's recent investment of $7 million to SKHHP, which is funding numerous projects in Kent and in South King County. In addition, Kristen provided a summary of half a dozen new housing requirements Kent will need to implement by June 2025 to meet basic requirements of new state laws. These new state laws, combined with extra processes added by the King County Affordable Housing Committee Comprehensive Plan review process, are requiring additional staff time not previously anticipated. It was noted that King County has hired several new full-time staff to review Comprehensive Plans submitted by cities,and more resourced cities have also responded similarly to meet new requirements. From the discussion of these issues, it appeared that the Council is most interested in: 1) ensuring that the City's housing stock serves the needs of all income levels, including workforce and market rate; 2) reducing the cost of new homes while retaining environmental standards; and 3) continuing to build and maintain partnerships with other cities, King County,the state,and the private sector to meet the housing needs of Kent's residents, paying particular attention to added requirements to process time. A final note: Kent's Comprehensive Plan, including the housing element, must be updated by the end of this year, and the Zoning Code will be updated by the middle of 2025. Many of the issues that the Council discussed at this workshop will be discussed again during the process of updating the Comp Plan, Kent City Code, and in regional forums focused on the Countywide Planning Policies and 2044 growth targets. 5. OPEN PUBLIC MEETINGS ACT Tammy White, City Attorney, provided an overview and refresher of the Open Public Meetings Act. 6. COUNCIL AGREES THAT CITY SHOULD EXPLORE PURCHASING NEW CITY HALL Julie Parascondola, Director of the Parks, Recreation and Community Services Department, provided a detailed overview of the challenges the City faces in operating and maintaining its diverse facilities. As a result of their discussion with her, the Councilmembers unanimously endorsed the Administration's recommendation that the City explore the feasibility of purchasing a building outside downtown Kent to refashion into a new municipal center.The Council also urged Mayor Ralph and her team to be proactive in communicating with the public about the reasons for and benefits of the move,should it be determined that it is in the best interests of the City and Kent's residents. The Council's interests in agreeing to a ninety-day exploration of the building purchase were: 1) safety and well-being of City employees and everyone who visits City Hall; 2) smooth, efficient, and continuous functioning of City government; and 3) minimize the costs of facility operations, maintenance, and preservation. Page 4 of 7 COUNCIL TALK TIME AND THE TAKEAWAYS FROM THE WORKSHOP As the workshop drew to a close, Councilmembers were asked if they had any additional issues to add to the Council's future agenda.Three were mentioned. A. Councilmember Brenda Fincher suggested that the Council revisit tiny houses during a future workshop. The majority of the Council stated they were not interested in revisiting this issue. Council President Kaur suggested that the issue might come up later this year as part of the larger discussion of housing options to be discussed in the City's Comprehensive Plan Update. Staff noted that tiny homes are one of many options to meet the 0%-30% AMI need. Based on the preliminary Draft EIS,all growth alternatives already include sufficient capacity to meet the 0-30% AMI level of affordability. Tiny homes might be an additional option the City identifies for policy direction when updating the plan's housing element. B. A second issue to revisit may be the sale of marijuana within Kent.The Council concluded it may be a topic for discussion within the context of the development and debate over the 2025-'26 budget. If it is discussed, Councilmembers said that both the revenue enhancements and the costs, particularly to public safety, would need to be factored into the conversations. C. Finally, might the City consider extending its rental inspection program to include single family homes that are rented?This could mean that homeowners who rent their homes must first obtain a City license. No timetable or process for exploring this issue was mentioned. The last business of the day was identifying key takeaways from this year's workshop. These were mentioned: 1) We need to find more revenue options; 2) The refresher on finances and financial management was very helpful; 3)All the presentations by ELT members and staff were excellent;4)These meetings are a great opportunity to explore ideas, choices, and solutions, and to build understanding and trust; and 5)Thank you to the staff for the preparation that went into this workshop and for the work you do every day. Page 5 of 7 Appendix MAJOR ACCOMPLISHMENTS OF 2023 AND EARLY 2024 COUNCIL AND MAYOR'S LIST The retreat began with Councilmembers and the Mayor identifying what they consider the City's major accomplishments of last year and the first few months of this year. Once they had each spoken twice,the ELT added to the list. First, here are the most important and noteworthy accomplishments of last year that the Council and Mayor Ralph identified: ■ Progress in advancing the Kent East Hill Operations Center(KEHOC). ■ The employees,who continue to do excellent work on our behalf and for the residents of Kent. ■ Public Safety is fully staffed and the staff is more diverse than ever. ■ Our contract with the Regional Fire Authority (RFA). ■ The reopening of Van Doren Landing. ■ Reopening of a number of parks and the renovation of some parks and park facilities. ■ A more diverse workforce. ■ ECD hosted amazing events, such as the STEM Festival. ■ Our work during the 2023 Legislative Session on Blake. ■ Our contribution of millions of dollars to the South King Housing and Homelessness Partners ■ Co-responder model. ■ The continuity of the ELT.Thank you! ■ Legislation#5606 to address illegal street racing. ■ The City's new language access plan. ■ Relaunch of Green Kent. ■ Uriel's work to advance the Equity Plan. ■ The consistency and purposefulness of our economic development efforts. ■ The Finance Department is doing an awesome job. ■ IT Department's security work is preserving the safety of data. ■ The Police Department's care in its data collection. ■ Training of police officers in race and equity. ■ Millcreek's reestablishment. ■ Police dashcam and keeping the revenue generated by the cameras. ■ Maintenance and upgrade of the City's bridges. Page 6 of 7 ELT'S LIST Next, the ELT members identified and expanded on the significant achievements of their departments in 2023. ■ Kent's leadership in Olympia on the legislation to address public use of drugs. ■ Phoenix Court. ■ Hiring Kristen Holdsworth,who was influential in the development and passage of state legislation in 2023, and who worked to protect the City's interest. ■ Enterprise "Amanda" replacement,the permitting system. A process improvement with the goal of greater efficiency. ■ The partnership of the Police and IT Departments to replace and upgrade the Access Management System. ■ The City's work to address public use of drugs and illegal street racing gained the attention of Police Chiefs at their recent two-day conference. The City got many acknowledgements and was hailed for these "model ordinances." ■ The Kent East Hill Operations Center(KEHOC). ■ The Public Safety and Law Departments' collaboration to remove homeless encampments in environmentally sensitive areas. More residents of the encampments are accepting services. ■ The grants obtained by Public Works. ■ Parks have reopened and more people than ever are using them. We are now able to track use. ■ Riverbend. ■ Parks and Recreation was awarded for being in the Top 100 in the use of social media among parks agencies across the nation. ■ Earthworks project. ■ Race and Equity Strategic Plan, and the level of engagement of staff in the training. ■ Funding of the Drug Court. After these lists were compiled, everyone agreed that a key component of recent successes was persistence. Many of the successes listed above were the result of years of focus and dogged pursuit.They didn't happen overnight, and they needed champions. Teamwork and "thinking outside the box" were also present in many of these accomplishments. We have broken down silos, promoted cross-the- organization collaboration, and found creative new ways to advance our vision, goals, and projects. We have shown we are willing to take risks. And, as Councilmember Boyd observed, "We work as a family." The#1 barrier or obstacle to our success has recently been the State Legislature. We need to continue to build our presence there, both as the City of Kent and in partnership with other cities, counties, interest groups, and private enterprises.

This helped " Facilities staff prioritize lifecycle investments, etc. Municip; • In late 2020, the City contracted with MENG Analysis and FCS Group, for a Facilities Condition KENT court Assessment and Master Plan. The ultimate objective of this process was to identify how the City can maximize operational efficiency and sustainability via fiscally-responsible strategies There are two parts to this plan: • Facilities Condition Assessment. The facility condition assessment documented the current condition of the City's facility assets, quantified the amount of maintenance backlog, created lists of prioritized short-term action items, and , 4 forecast long-term needs for facility maintenance and upgrades. This assessment also identified opportunities for the City y to improve user experience, energy efficiency, and building longevity through facility updates -a- Operations and Maintenance Analysis. The City's current operations and maintenance practices were analyzed and compared to level-of-service standards for the three maintenance groups: HVAC, general maintenance, and custodial. Recommended monthly, quarterly, and annual maintenance activities were codified and used to calculate recommended staffing levels for these groups. An Excel-based what-if analysis tool was developed to compare staffing needs at various maintenance levels of service r • The full, completed plan is anticipated to be final after policy direction on next steps and _ sustainable funding or capital funding identification. gym.. ,.

They will behave as (3) separate structures during a seismic event and the supplemental framing between the structures could negatively affect their performance during an earthquake. The supplemental framing between structures could create a pounding effect where one building would push , 4 on the adjacent structure or they could pull away from each other • City Hall (and most City owned buildings) continue to see an escalation in bldg/infrastructure safety, staff safety and other security challenges, which require increased capital investment.

The City now has 745 employees. KPD was added in 1996 and Centennial Center was added in 1991 to help fill that need, however, buildings have always been retrofitted vs. built to what the City really needed; space needs have continued to be an issue over the decades • Even if the City creates a funding strategy for City Hall/KPD, there is still a $68 million, predicted facilities backlog that needs to be addressed through some type of sustainable funding source in the future. • Once KEHOC, KPD and City Hall are complete, it's critical we begin addressing the ODs and PRs at Russell Road shops and other areas that will still need to be addressed. • The City recently invested $50 million into a new East Hill Maintenance Shops Facility (KEHOC), ' but still needs to address the increase in the sustainable operations of the space, to be addressed in the 2025-2026 budget process. :_=-- f` Municipi KENT Court Summary of Opt cRy Of•Kellf•. 1i KENT _ �Z WASHINGTON f Initial Thoughts From 2023 Council Discussion Presented (3) Pro/Con options for Council consideration on how to handle KPD needs, General City Service needs and declining infrastructure: 1.

This could take 2-4 years. • Significant noise and construction would occur on the City Hall Campus for 2-4 years. - Staff would need to move in/move out multiple times.
