INFO ONLY: June 2024 Financial Report Financial Planning Manager, Michelle Ferguson provided details on the June 2024 Financial Report. Ferguson highlighted sales tax revenues that are coming in less than 2023, but overall for 2024 are $500K higher than 2023. Utility tax revenues are on budget. Intergovernmental expenses are slightly lower due to the receipt of a grant from the General Fund for the Comprehensive Plan. Lodging Tax expenditures are higher due to the Council-approved Lodging Tax grant awards. The Capital Resources Fund expenditures are lower than 2023 year since the funds that would have been transferred out to projects have not been needed yet. Fleet is lower than 2023 due to the influx of ARPA funds to purchase replacement vehicles. Insurance revenues have a greater variance - this is due to accounting for higher insurance premiums. ...........................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

Project Be Free Professional Services Agreement — Authorize and Ratify Sergeant Landon Meyer presented details on the Professional Services Agreement with Project Be Free. In October 2023, the Kent Police Department commenced a pilot program with Project Be Free, a non-profit community-based organization responsible for Domestic Violence programming, education, and co-responder services. Project Be Free staff respond alongside Kent Police officers to domestic violence calls for service to assist victims with case management at the time of the call. Project Be Free staff are bilingual and trained in providing mental health services and domestic violence case management. They can provide transportation to a safe site and/or assist with food, shelter, and medical needs. Project Be Free will also provide follow-up support to the household, to include up to ten therapy sessions either online or in person for no charge to assist individuals, couples, or family members. Kent Police partnered with Project Be Free to apply for a grant, which will allow programming to continue beyond the pilot project. Grant funds in the amount of $205,000 were awarded by the Association of Washington Cities (AWC) to this project effective July 1, 2024, for a one-year period. Council previously authorized the acceptance of these grant funds and further authorized the Mayor to sign the grant Agreement. The grant Agreement with AWC has been executed and now Kent must enter into an agreement with Project Be Free for the expenditure of the grant funds and continuation of domestic violence co-response, case management, and training services for Kent officers. ...........................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

Joint Funding Agreement with the U.S. Geological Survey — Authorize Environmental Engineering Manager, Mike Mactutis, presented information on the Joint Funding Agreement with the U.S. Geological Survey. This has been an annual Agreement with USGS for over 30 years for the Operation of Stream and River Gages. This agreement is part of an ongoing partnership with the City and the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) for stream data collection. For federal fiscal year 2025, the City will contribute $127,605 to the total annual program costs of $175,730 with the USGS and the City of Tukwila providing the remainder. These gages provide valuable information on stream and weather conditions, including water surface elevations, flow levels and precipitation. This information is used to calibrate stream flow models and increase the accuracy of City design of stormwater flood projection models. The internet link allows staff and the public to monitor stream flow levels from remote locations in real time. The stream flow measured at the Rock Creek and Kent Kangley Road gage is included in the Clark Springs Habitat Conservation Plan to determine the City's agreed to augmentation flows in Rock Creek from October through December. This agreement will provide for operation, maintenance and data collection at seven gages. Two are located on Mill Creek, one on Springbrook Creek, one on Rock Creek, and three on the Green River. MOTION: I move to authorize the Mayor to sign the Joint Funding Agreement for Water Resource Investigations with the U.S. Geological Survey, subject to final terms and conditions acceptable to the Public Works Director and City Attorney. ...........................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
