>>> AFTERNOON, EVERYONE.
AND WELCOME TO THE FINANCE AND
NEIGHBORHOODS COMMITTEE.
TODAY IS JULY 31 AND IT IS 2:00
P.M.
I AM COUNCILMEMBER BAGSHAW,
THE CHAIR OF THE COMMITTEE.
THANK YOU COUNCILMEMBER PACHECO
FOR JOINING US.
THANK YOU ALLISON FOR GETTING
IS ORGANIZED.
THE FIRST ORDER IS TO APPROVE
THE AGENDA.
IF THERE IS NO OBJECTIO, THE
AGENDA WILL BE ADOPTED.
HEARING NO OBJECTION, THE
AGENDA IS ADOPTED.
WE HAVE SIX ITEMS ON THE AGENDA
TODAY.
THE FIRST IS A BRIEFING,
DISCUSSION AND POSSIBLE VOTE
FOR A HUMAN RESOURCES ORDINANCE
THAT IS RELATED TO CITY
EMPLOYMENT.
AFTER THAT, WE WILL BEGIN THE
SUPPLEMENTAL BUDGET REVIEW.
I APPRECIATE THE FACT THAT
DIRECTOR BEN NOBLE IS HERE.
THERE IS NO VOTE ON THIS THAT
WE WILL BE TALKING ABOUT FIVE
SUPPLEMENTAL ITEMS.
THE EXCEPTIONS ORDINANCE, THE
CARRYFORWARD ORDINANCE, THE
SUPPLEMENTAL BUDGET ORDINANCE,
THE CIP ABANDONMENT ORDINANCE
AND THE GRAND ACCEPTANCE
ORDINANCE.
IT IS MY HOPE TODAY THAT WE
WILL GET THROUGH ALL OF THESE
ITEMS.
IN FACT, I WILL INSIST WE GET
THROUGH ALL OF THESE ITEMS SO
WE CAN BRING THEM FORWARD AND
WE WILL DEAL WITH THE VOTES IN
THE AMENDMENTS ON AUGUST 9.
RIGHT NOW WE WILL OPEN FOR
PUBLIC COMMENT.
SEEING NOBODY WHO HAS SIGNED UP
OR INTERESTED IN IT, DON'T TAKE
THAT PERSONALLY.
I KNOW THAT BUDGET IS AN
EXCITING TIME FOR EVERYBODY.
SO SINCE WE HAVE NO ONE HERE
TODAY, WE WILL MOVE RIGHT IN
AND ALLISON, IF YOU WOULD BE SO
KIND AS TO READ IN THE FIRST
ITEM OF BUSINESS.
>> ITEM NUMBER ONE, 1024.
AND ORDER NET RELATING TO CITY
EMPLOYMENT, ESTABLISHING NEW
WAGE RELATIONSHIPS FOR CERTAIN
JOB TITLES.
>> CAN RETURN THIS DOWN A
LITTLE BIT?
IT SOUNDS LIKE WE ARE ECHOING
HERE.
>> RICH GROFF , 1025, SEATTLE
CITY LIGHT.
>> THE PROPOSED LEGISLATION
WOULD RAISE THE WAGES OF HYDRO
MAINTENANCE WORKERS AT SEATTLE
CITY LIGHT.
I WILL SUMMARIZE THE CENTRAL
STAFF MEMO ATTACHED TO YOUR
AGENDA.
BY BRIEFLY REVIEWING SOME
BACKGROUND AND I WILL DESCRIBE
THE FISCAL IMPACTS OF THE
LEGISLATION.
IN TERMS OF ENCAPSULATION OF
SOME OF THE BACKGROUND, HYDRO
MAINTENANCE WORKERS AT CITY
LIGHT ARE COVERED BY A
COLLECTIVE WORKING AGREEMENT
THAT PERMITS THE UNION TO
REQUEST WAGE REVIEW OF JOB
TITLES AND ALSO AUTHORIZES A
WAGE REVIEW COMMITTEE AT CITY
LIGHT TO RULE ON WAGE INCREASES
SUBJECT TO FINAL APPROVAL BY
THE CITY COUNCIL.
IN AUGUST 2018, THE UNION LOCAL
77 REQUESTED A WAGE REVIEW OF
THE TOP STEP OF THE WAGE
PROGRESSION FOR 2 POSITIONS.
HYDRO MAINTENANCE WORKER 1 AND
HYDRO MAINTENANCE WORKER 2. IN
OCTOBER 2018, THE CITY LIGHT
WAGE REVIEW COMMITTEE TOOK
ACTION SUPPORTING WAGE
INCREASES CITING SEVERAL
FACTORS.
THE PROPOSED WAGE INCREASES
BOOKABLE ONLY TO THE TOP STAFF
IN THE WAGE PROGRESSION WOULD
BE BASED ON A CERTAIN
PERCENTAGE OF A BASELINE WAGE
THAT IS THE ESTABLISHED WAGE
FOR MORE EXPERIENCED JOURNEY
LEVEL POSITIONS.
THE PROPOSED LEGISLATION WOULD
DO THE FOLLOWING.
IT WOULD ESTABLISH A NEW SO-
CALLED BASELINE WAGE AT $47.51
PER HOUR.
FOR A HYDRO MAINTENANCE WORKER,
1, THE LEGISLATION WOULD
INCREASE THE TOP A STEP TO 75%
OF THIS BASELINE WAGE.
RESULTING IN A WAGE INCREASE TO
$35.62 PER HOUR.
FOR HYDRO MAINTENANCE WORKER 2,
THE INCREASE TO THE TOP STEP
WOULD BE UP TO 80% OF THE
BASELINE WAGE THAT WOULD RESULT
IN AN INCREASE UP TO $37.83 PER
HOUR.
IN TERMS OF THE FISCAL IMPACTS,
THE PROPOSED WAGE INCREASES
WOULD CHANGE THE WAGES FOR 9
EXISTING POSITIONS.
AND THIS INCREASE WOULD START
IN THE PAY PERIOD FOLLOWING THE
EFFECTIVE DATE OF THE REPOSE
LEGISLATION.
THE LEGISLATION WOULD NOT
AUTHORIZE ANY RETRO-PAY.
AND THE EXECUTIVE ESTIMATES
THAT THE PROPOSED WAGE
INCREASES WOULD ADD A TOTAL OF
$7000 ANNUALLY.
AND CITY LIGHT PLANS TO ABSORB
THESE EXTRA COSTS WITHOUT
REQUESTING ADDITIONAL BUDGET
AUTHORITY.
IF THERE ARE ANY QUESTIONS, I
CAN ANSWER THEM.
OR PERHAPS THE FOLKS AT THE
TABLE CAN.
>> SEATTLE CITY LIGHT?
>> I HAVE A CLARIFICATION TO
THE STATEMENT.
IS NOT ESTABLISHING A NEW
BASELINE WAGE, IT IS ADJUSTING
THE RELATIONSHIP OF THESE TWO
TITLES TO THE BASELINE WAGE.
THAT IS FOR THE ENTIRE
BARGAINING UNIT.
>>> THAT IS HELPFUL.
>> ANYTHING ELSE YOU WOULD LIKE
TO ADD?
EITHER AS PART OF THE
NEGOTIATIONS OR SEATTLE CITY
LIGHT?
>> I WOULD SAY THAT IT IS AN
EXAMPLE OF THE COLLABORATIVE
PROCESS.
THAT UNION APPROACHED US AND WE
ENGAGED IN DISCUSSIONS RIGHT
AWAY.
I THINK RICH WOULD ADD THESE
WERE COLLABORATIVE IN A
PROFESSIONAL WAY.
THERE WAS AGREEMENT REALLY
EARLY ON THAT THIS WAS A
LEGITIMATE ASK.
IT HAS BEEN SOMETHING THAT WE
HAVE BEEN REVIEWING FOR A
WHILE.
TO INCREASE DUTIES WITH THIS
PARTICULAR CLASSIFICATION
OVERTIME.
ON THE RELATIONSHIP OF THE WORK
THEY DID WITH THE JOURNEY
WORKERS OUT THERE.
SO IT IS REALLY A GOOD PROCESS
IN GENERAL.
IT IS NICE TO SEE IT COME TO
FRUITION.
>> IS THIS MOSTLY FOUNDRY
>> VERY GOOD.
>> COUNCILMEMBER PACHECO, DO
YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS?
>> ALL RIGHT.
I THINK IF THERE ARE NO FURTHER
QUESTIONS, WITHOUT FURTHER ADO,
I WILL MOVE APPROVAL OF THAT
COUNSEL BILL.
HOLD ON ONE MOMENT.
COUNSEL BILL 119579.
DO WE HAVE A SECOND?
ALL THOSE IN FAVOR SAY AYE.
NONE A POST.
NOTE EXIGENCE.
THANK YOU.
ONE MORE THING FOR SEATTLE CITY
LIGHT.
THANK YOU FOR THE EXCELLENT
EVENT YOU HAD IN PARTICIPATED
IN AT THE DENNY'S SUBSTATION.
IT WAS A DELIGHTFUL DAY.
A WONDERFUL PROJECT BUT I ALSO
WANT TO ACKNOWLEDGE HOW MUCH
GOOD WORK THAT WE HAD DONE,
BRINGING IN THE PREMISES AND THE
APPRENTICE, PRE-APPRENTICE
PROGRAM.
I HAD A GOOD TIME TALKING WITH
A NUMBER OF PEOPLE THERE THAT
WERE IN THE PROGRAM.
>> EXCELLENT.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR YOUR
PARTICIPATION AS WELL.
>> IT WAS A WONDERFUL DAY.
IT IS A GOOD THING THAT WE
OBJECT. ONG AND HARD ON THAT
VERY GOOD.
I APPRECIATE THAT.
THE NEXT FIVE ITEMS, WE WILL
NOT BE VOTING ON THESE BUT THEY
ARE ALL IMPORTANT.
AS ALLISON IS READING THIS IN,
THEN, I WILL INVITE YOU AND
ANYBODY ELSE.
27, TOM?
>> ITEM NUMBER TWO, CB 119572.
AN ORDINANCE AMENDING ORDINANCE
125493, WHICH AMENDED THE 2018
BUDGET ORDINANCE INCLUDING THE
2018-2023 CAPITAL.
PROGRAM.
IT AFTER THE 2019 BUDGET,
INCLUDING THE 2019-2024 CIP.
A #4, AN ORDINANCE AMENDING
WANT TO 574, WHICH ADOPTED THE
2019 BUDGET.
WHICH INCLUDED THE CAPITAL
PERMIT PROGRAM.
AND ITEM NUMBER FARK, COUNSEL
BILL NUMBER 119576 WHICH
AMENDED THE ORDINANCE WANT TO
574 WHICH INCLUDED THE CIP.
FINALLY, ITEM NUMBER SIX,
CANCEL BELT 119574, REGARDING
THE ACCEPTANCE OF FUNDING FROM
NON-CITY SOURCES.
OPEN FOR DISCUSSION OF ALL
FIVE.
>> 1027?
ARE YOU OR TOM MISKESELL GOING
TO INTRODUCE THIS?
>> THIS WILL BE TOM'S SHOW.
I WANT TO MAKE A QUICK,.
RATHER ASK A QUESTION.
ARE YOU COMFORTABLE HAVING THE
FIVE ORDINANCES PRESENTED AS A
BODY OF LEGISLATION?
IN ONE GO?
OR WOULD YOU PREFER TO HAVE
THEM SEPARATED MORE.
SINCE WE ARE NOT VOTING.
>> ELSE AND HAS READ THEM ALL
IN.
AT THE POINT WHERE YOU ARE
SHIFTING, IF WE WOULD JUST MAKE
IT REALLY CLEAR THAT WE ARE
SHIFTING SO THAT THE RECORDS IS
OBVIOUS FOR ANYBODY WHO IS
INTERESTED.
>> VERY GOOD.
>> ALSO JUST BECAUSE THE AGENDA
ITEM NUMBER AND THE ORDER THAT
IT IS LISTED IN TOM'S MEMO ARE
DIFFERENT.
COULD YOU JUST FLAG WHAT AGENDA
ITEM WITH REGARDS TO THE ROOM
RESPECTABLE BILLS?
>> WELCOME, TOM.
>> THANK YOU, MADAM CHAIR.
COUNCILMEMBER PACHECO , IT IS A
PLEASURE TO BE HERE.
AS YOU ALL INTRODUCE, WE HAVE
FIVE SEPARATE PIECES OF
LEGISLATION.
SAID TOGETHER THEY COMPRISE THE
FIRST SUPPLEMENTAL ADJUSTMENT
PACKAGE FOR THE 2019 BUDGET.
AND AS ALLISON INDICATED, THE
AGENDA IS SLIGHTLY MISMATCHED
WITH THE WAY THE MEMO WAS
WRITTEN.
BUT I CAN POINT OUT THE ROADMAP
TOGETHER.
SO KIND OF STARTING FROM THE
FIRST, IF YOU REFER TO THE
MEMO, THE FIRST BILL IS COUNSEL
BILL 119572.
THIS IS THE, INFORMALLY, OR
PERHAPS FORMALLY THE EXCEPTIONS
ORDINANCE.
WHAT THIS DOES IS, WELL BY LAW,
THE CITY DEPARTMENTS CAN'T
SPEND BEYOND THE AMOUNT
ALLOCATED IN THE BCL, AT THE
BCL LEVEL.
>> CAN I JUST MAKE SURE THAT AS
WE ARE GOING THROUGH THIS THAT
WE TRY TO AVOID ACRONYMS.
SO ONCE WE TALK ABOUT BUDGET
CONTROL LEVEL, HENCEFORTH, WE
CAN MAKE IT CLEAR.
>> BUDGET CONTROL LEVEL.
THAT IS THE LEGAL LEVEL OF
CONTROL.
IT HAS HAPPENED FROM TIME TO
TIME THAT THERE ARE INSTANCES
WHERE OF THE ACTUAL LEVEL OF
EXPENDITURES EXCEEDS THE BCL.
IT IS APPROPRIATE FOR THE NAME
BECAUSE THIS IS THE EXCEPTION
RATHER THAN THE RULE.
IN MOST CASES, THAT DOES NOT
HAPPEN.
BUT THERE ARE A FEW ITEMS.
COUNSEL BILL 119572 TOTALS
13,000, 13 MILLION, ESSENTIALLY
$13.7 MILLION WORTH OF THIS
TYPE OF CHANGE.
PERHAPS CONVENIENTLY, THE BILL
AND THE BULK OF THAT AMOUNT IS
IN ONE ITEM, WHICH IS TO
INCREASE THE SAS CUSTOMER
REQUESTED TENANT IMPROVEMENTS
PROGRAM BUDGET.
WHAT THE, WHAT IS INFORMALLY
REFERRED TO AS THE COURTESY
PROGRAM, IT ALLOWS AUTHORITY TO
COMPLETE WORK REQUESTED BY CITY
DEPARTMENTS.
AND IT IS ESSENTIALLY JUST
PASSED THROUGH BUDGET
AUTHORITY.
THE ORIGINAL CASH COMES FROM
THE DEPARTMENTS AND FLOWS
THROUGH FAS THAT DOES THE WORK.
SO THE INTENT UNDER NORMAL
CIRCUMSTANCES WOULD BE TO HAVE
MADE THIS ADJUSTMENT IN THE
FOURTH QUARTER SUPPLEMENTAL OF
2018.
HOWEVER, DUE TO AN ERROR IN THE
PROCESS, THAT DID NOT HAPPEN.
SO THIS JUST CORRECTS FOR THAT.
SO THAT IS THE BULK OF THE
$13.7 MILLION CHANGE.
>> JUST ONE OTHER THING, THE
MEMO TOM PREPARED IS IDEAL.
IF YOU'RE COMFORTABLE, I
THOUGHT I WOULD WALK THROUGH
AND OFFER EXPLANATION FOR THESE
ITEMS AS WE GO.
RATHER THAN HAVING A SEPARATE
GO.
WHAT I WANTED TO SAY ABOUT THE
EXCEPTIONS IS THAT AT SOME
LEVEL I'M EMBARRASSED TO HAVE
THIS YEAR IN FRONT OF YOU AT
ALL.
OUR GOAL IS TO IT MR. A BUDGET
WITHOUT ANY EXCEPTIONS AT THE
END OF THE YEAR.
I SAID THE SAME THING LASTER.
I AM HERE AGAIN.
IS NOT PERFECTED THIS.
IN OUR DEFENSE, IF YOU WILL,
THE SHIFT IS SOMETHING WE ARE
STILL WORKING THROUGH.
THIS IS THE FIRST YEAR WE DID
THE YEAR AND UNDER THE NEW
SYSTEM.
THERE WERE SOME THINGS MISSED,
BOTTOM LINE.
NONE OF THIS IS, ANYWAY, NONE
OF THIS IS MONEY THAT WAS
EXPENDED IN WAYS THAT COUNSEL
ESSENTIALLY INTENDED.
THEY WERE EITHER ERRORS IN THE
WAYS IT WAS REPORTED OR FOR
INSTANCE IN THE CASE OF FAS,
THOSE MONEY WERE DOUBLE
APPROPRIATE.
YOU HAD GIVEN THE DEPARTMENTS
THE AUTHORITY TO IMPROVEMENTS
AND THEY SPEND THAT MONEY BY
GIVING IT TO FAS.
WHAT WE HADN'T DONE IS TO TELL
YOU THAT YOU NEEDED TO GIVE FAS
THE AUTHORITY FROM THE
DEPARTMENT.
THAT WAS 99% OF WHAT WAS HERE.
THAT IS NOT AN EXCUSE.
IT IS NOT MATERIAL.
IT NEEDS TO BE BETTER.
WE ARE CONTINUING TO WORK ON
THAT.
>> THANK YOU.
I KNOW I ASKED YOU THE
SPECIFIC, DO WE HAVE MONEY TO
PAY THIS?
>> YES.
IT IS MONEY YOU APPROPRIATED IN
FACT.
>> IS MORE OF AN ACCOUNTING
THING.
>> A TIMING PIECE.
OUR GOAL IS NO EXCEPTIONS.
I RECENTLY, THE DEPARTMENT WAS
SAYING WE HAD TO DECIDE WHICH
AUTHORITY TO ASK FOR.
IF WE DON'T ASK FOR THIS
MESSAGE, I DON'T WANT AN
EXCEPTION.
WE ARE ASKING FOR MORE
AUTHORITY THAN YOU NEED AND
WHY.
SO AGAIN, TO GIVE YOU A SENSE
OF HOW WE WILL MANAGE TO AVOID
THESE.
>> THANK YOU.
VERY GOOD.
>> SO THAT INCLUDES MY COMMENTS
ON THAT BILL.
THAT WAS AGENDA ITEM NUMBER
TWO.
FOR, WITH PERMISSION, I WILL
MOVE ON.
WE WILL JUMP ONE AND COME BACK
TO THREE.
>> THIS IS COUNSEL BILL 119573.
THIS IS THE 2019 CARRYFORWARD
ORDINANCE.
WHICH IN EFFECT CARRIES FORWARD
UNSPENT APPROPRIATIONS FROM THE
LAST FISCAL YEAR INTO THIS
FISCAL YEAR TO COMPLETE THE
WORK THAT THOSE APPROPRIATIONS
WERE ORIGINALLY GIVEN FOR.
SO THERE WERE A NUMBER OF
INCREASES IN THIS COUNSEL BILL.
THE TOTAL IS $90.3 MILLION.
36.2 OF THAT IS IN THE GENERAL
FUND.
I GUESS IN TERMS OF THE GOOD
NEWS IS THAT THIS IS NOT NEW
MONEY IN TERMS OF AN EFFECT ON
THE FUND BALANCE.
BECAUSE THE ORIGINAL THOUGHT
WAS THAT THESE APPROPRIATIONS
WOULD BE SENT LAST YEAR.
SO WHAT WE ARE DOING IS MOVING
THAT AUTHORITY FORWARD TO 2019
FISCAL YEAR.
>> COULD I JUST ASK ABOUT, I'M
LOOKING AT TALLIES HERE.
AND ON PAGE 12 OF 14 ON 119573,
I NOTICED THAT WE HAVE A TOTAL
OF $88 MILLION.
AND 1.7 MILLION, DOES THAT ADD
UP TO THE 90.3?
IT LOOKS TO ME LIKE IT IS A
LITTLE SHORT.
NOPE.
IT'S FINE.
THANK YOU.
THOSE ARE THE TWO COLUMNS.
THE ONE ON PAGE 12 FOR 80.5 AND
ONE ON PAGE 13 FOR 1.7.
THAT EQUALS THE NUMBER THAT YOU
JUST SPECIFIED ABOUT 90.3
MILLION.
>> GOOD.'S THANK YOU.
>> SO I WILL JUST RUN THROUGH
HIGHLIGHTS.
THIS CONTRACTS THE MEMO.
AT A VERY HIGH LEVEL.
SO IN TERMS OF THE GENERAL
FUND, THERE IS A $13.6 MILLION
IN THE COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT.
THIS REPRESENTS UNSPENT
PORTIONS OF AN INTERFUND LOAN
FOR THE EQUITABLE DEVELOPMENT
INITIATIVE.
AND THE ORIGINAL ORIGIN OF
THESE MONIES WAS THE SALE OF
THE CIVIC SQUARE PROPERTY.
SO THIS IS ESSENTIALLY A LOAN
THAT IS IN PLACE UNTIL THOSE
PROCEEDS COME IN.
>> HOW DOES THIS WORK?
I KNOW LAST WEEK WHEN WE HAD
GONE THROUGH SEVERAL WEEKS
WORTH OF CONVERSATIONS AROUND
BOTH WIND BEVERAGE TAX AND EEI,
THEY WERE COMPANION BILLS.
HOW DO THOSE COMPARE?
HOW MUCH MONEY IS COMING IN TO
PAY OFF THE 13.6?
ARE THEY JUST HAND AND GLOVE
NOW?
IS ONE AHEAD OF THE OTHER AS
FAR AS MONEY COMING IN?
>> I CAN EXPLAIN.
SO THIS IS 13.6.
THIS IS WHAT IS LEFT OF AN
ORIGINAL $50 MILLION
APPROPRIATION TO EDI THAT IS
BACKED BY THE PROCEEDS I AM
POINTING FOR THE SAFETY OF THE
AUDIENCE.
IS ACROSS FROM CITY HALL.
IT WAS FORMALLY THE LOCATION OF
THE PUBLIC SAFETY BUILDING.
THE CITY IS GOING TO BE PAID
$50 MILLION AND RECEIVE SOME OF
THE COMPENSATION AS WELL FOR
THE PARCEL.
THAT MONEY, THOSE MONIES ARE
DEDICATED TO THE DEVELOPMENT
INITIATIVE.
THE EDI PROJECTS.
THE TIMING ON WHEN THE LAND
SALE WILL CLOSE, ACTUALLY IT IS
LOOKING LIKE EARLY 2020 AT THIS
POINT.
WE HAVE LEARNED FOR SOME TIME
THAT IT WAS GOING TO CLOSE.
AND WE KNEW THAT SOME OF THE
EDI PROJECTS NEEDED FUNDING
IMMEDIATELY.
SO WHAT WE DID WAS TO SAY, DID
YOU AND INTERFUND LOAN.
TO TAKE FROM THE CITY'S
CHECKING ACCOUNT.
$50 MILLION.
AND MAKE IT AVAILABLE TO THE
OFFICE SEE, OFFICE OF POLICY
AND VELVET.
TO ADMINISTER AND TO FUND THE
EDI PROJECTS.
BUT THEY HAVEN'T EXPENDED THAT
MONEY IN ANY GIVEN YEAR.
IT WAS NEVER THE INTENT THAT
THEY WOULD.
SO WHAT WE ARE DOING IS
CARRYING FORWARD THAT
APPROPRIATION.
OP CD WILL CONTINUE.
THEY HAD SPENT SOME OF IT.
IT WAS ORIGINALLY 15.
NOW IT IS DOWN TO 13 1/2.
THEY HAVE BEEN GIVING SMALL
GRANTS TO INDIVIDUAL
ORGANIZATIONS.
SO WE WILL CONTINUE TO CARRY
THIS FORWARD.
UNTIL IT IS ULTIMATELY
EXPENDED.
THAT IS THE ONE TIME
ALLOCATION.
THE MORE EXCITING NEWS ABOUT
THE DEVELOPMENT INITIATIVE IS
THAT AS PART OF THE SHORT-TERM
RENTAL TAX THAT HAS BEEN
IMPOSED STATEWIDE, IT IS
ATTACKED THAT EXTENDS
EFFECTIVELY HOTEL MOTEL TAXES
TO THINGS LIKE AIR B&B AND I'M
NOT GOING TO DO THAT ACRONYM.
THE CITY HAS TAKEN WHAT $10
MILLION PER YEAR.
HALF THAT 5 MILLION HAS BEEN
DEDICATED ON AN ONGOING BASIS
TO THE EQUITABLE DEVELOPMENT
INITIATIVE, WHICH VERY QUICKLY,
ANYTIME BEYOND THREE YEARS WILL
BE MORE THAN THE INITIAL 15.
IT IS INTENDED TO ONLY
COMPLEMENT THIS AS WELL.
SO EDI NOW HAS AN ONGOING
FUNDING SOURCE OF $5 MILLION
PER YEAR.
>> VERY GOOD, THANK YOU.
>> VERY CLEAR AND DISTINCT.
>> THE NEXT INCREASE I WOULD
HIGHLIGHTS IS $1.7 MILLION.
THAT IS A CARRYFORWARD TO THE
DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION AND
EARLY LEARNING POST SECONDARY
PROGRAM TO THE UNSPENT'S WIND
BEVERAGE TAXES.
THAT IS $1.4 MILLION.
AND THE REMAINING 349 IS FROM
THAT CITY'S GENERAL FUND.
THERE ARE A COUPLE OF OTHER
SWEETENED BEVERAGES TAXES AND
FUNDED ITEMS THAT I WILL TAKE
IN ORDER.
ONE IS A ONE MILLION-DOLLAR
INCREASE IN HST FOR FOOD AND
NUTRITION PROGRAM CONTRACTS.
AND AN ADDITIONAL $706-$9000
GOING TO THE OFFICE OF THE CITY
AUDITOR TO PERFORM EVALUATIONS
AND SWEETENED BEVERAGE TAX
PROGRAMS.
>> ALSO, KIND OF A LARGER
CATEGORY IN FINANCE IN GENERAL,
THIS IS WHERE WE SET ASIDE
MONIES TO MEET AND INTENDED
COUNSELED PURPOSE.
THERE ARE A NUMBER OF THESE
INDIVIDUAL BUCKETS OF MONEY
THAT WERE NOT SPENT IN DOES 19.
WE ARE CARRYING THEM FORWARD
WITH THE IDENTICAL PURPOSE INTO
THE NEW FISCAL YEAR.
THERE IS $1.3 MILLION FOR SAFE
CONSUMPTION SITE RESERVE.
$590,000 FOR EQUITABLE
DEVELOPMENT LOAN INTEREST.
232,000 FOR INSURANCE PREMIUM
PAYMENT.
$100,000 FOR --
>> REMEMBER LAMBERT HOUSE?
>> THEY HAD ALLOCATED $100,000,
THEY WERE LOOKING TO MAKE A
LIST OF THEIR FACILITY.
>> I DON'T REMEMBER WHAT IT IS.
I'M SORRY.
>> IT IS LGBTQ YOUTH SUPPORT
FACILITY.
>> THANK YOU.
>> A NONPROFIT.
>> QUESTIONS?
>> THE SAFE CONSUMPTION SITE
RESERVE, I WAS LOOKING AT THE
NOTES.
IT WAS SAYING SOMETHING ABOUT
THE CITY CLERK.
WHAT WAS THE HOLDUP?
I AM JUST CURIOUS.
>> I UNDERSTAND THE BROADER
CONTEXT.
>> THAT IS THE FEDERAL
GOVERNMENT, IF YOU WILL.
THE IDEA IS THAT WHEN WE HAVE A
PLAN, WE CALL ON THE COUNCIL TO
BRING SOME THE FORD.
IT DOESN'T SEEM PRUDENT TO MOVE
FORWARD WITH THE GENERAL SPACE
AS HAS BEEN DESCRIBED.'S
FOREIGN ALTERNATIVES AS WE
SPEAK AS TO WAYS TO ADDRESS THE
UNDERLYING ISSUES.
>> GOOD.
I WOULD LIKE TO PUT A BOOKMARK
AND THAT OVER THE NEXT FEW
WEEKS BEFORE THE BUDGET RATHER
THAN JUST HOLDING ON TO THE
SAFE CONSUMPTION SITE MONEY.
AND HAVING IT SIT THERE IN THE
BANK ACCOUNT TO LOOK AT WAYS
THAT WE CAN USE IT FOR OTHER
BEHAVIORAL HEALTH NEEDS.
JUST AS AN EARLY ALERT, I THINK
THAT IS SOMETHING THAT I
PERSONALLY AM GOING TO BE VERY
INTERESTED IN.
THANKS, TOM.
CIAA I KEEP INTERRUPTING YOU.
>> THAT IS QUITE ALL RIGHT.
THAT IS WHY WE ARE HERE.
SO JUST AROUND THAT OUT, THERE
IS STILL MONEY LEFT FOR SEATTLE
RETIREMENT SAVING PLANS STUDY.
152,000.
AND $500,000 FOR A SWEETENED
BEVERAGE TAX, YOUTH OPPORTUNITY
PROJECTS, ETC.
>> THANK YOU.
>> SO NOW I WILL MOVE INTO THE
OTHER FUNDS.
THE NON-GENERAL FUND INCREASES.
THERE IS JUST SHY OF $30
MILLION IN THE SEATTLE I.T.
DEPARTMENT.
SAID THIS IS SIMILAR TO THE FAS
INCREASE THE I LET OFF WITH
WHERE THERE IS AN APPROPRIATION
AMOUNT IN THE I.T.
DEPARTMENT.
WHAT THAT DOES IS GIVE I.T.
STAFF THE ABILITY TO SPEND
MONEY TRANSMITTED TO THEM FROM
OTHER DEPARTMENTS TO COMPLETE
PROJECTS ON THE BEHALF OF THOSE
DEPARTMENTS.
THIS AMOUNT IS CARRYING FORWARD
WORK THAT WAS BEGUN IN 2018 FOR
THE OTHER DEPARTMENTS.
INCLUDING CITY LIGHT AND AS DCI
WHERE I THINK MAJOR CHUNKS OF
THE MONEY, IT CARRIES THE MONEY
FORWARD SO THEY COMPLETE THE
WORK.
>> A COUPLE OF THINGS ON THIS
ONE.
SOME OF THIS IS THE RESULT OF
THE I.T.
NOT BEING ABLE TO GET PROJECTS
AT THE DOOR ON THE TIMELINE
ORIGINALLY IDENTIFIED.
SO A NEW DIRECTOR IS WORKING
HARD TO STREAMLINE PROJECT
DELIVERY AND TO MAKE SURE.
BUT WE ARE ALSO CHANGING FROM
MANY DEPARTMENTS TO BUILDING
STRUCTURES.
IN THE PAST, WHAT HAD HAPPENED
IS WE BUILT THE DEPARTMENTS FOR
THE WORK BASED ON THE COST
ESTIMATE AND COLLECTED THE
REVENUES AND PUT THEM INTO
SATELLITE CHECKING ACCOUNTS IF
YOU WILL.
THEY WERE SPENT AS THE PROJECT
MOVE FORWARD.
MOVING MORE TOWARDS A BUILD AS
YOU GO ARRANGEMENT, THEY WON'T
BE HAVING TO CARRY THE BUDGET
AUTHORITY FORWARD NECESSARILY.
WE WILL MEET OUT THE BUDGET
AUTHORITY AS NEEDED OVERTIME.
SO THERE ARE STRUCTURAL WAYS TO
ADJUST THAT AS WELL.
>> WHAT YOU HAVE IN THIS ITEM
IS THE OPPOSITE OF THE TENANT
IMPROVEMENTS AND EXCEPTIONS
ORDINANCE.
PHYSICALLY A PROJECT THAT AHEAD
OF THE TECHNICAL AUTHORITY.
HERE THE TECHNICAL, THE
AUTHORITY HAS BEEN PROVIDED BUT
THE PROJECTS HAVEN'T KEPT PACE.
>> THE NEXT LARGE ITEM, I WOULD
JUST LIKE TO HIGHLIGHT IS A
SEVEN POINT THROUGH MILLION-
DOLLAR INCREASE FROM THE 2018
MULTIPURPOSE, LTG O. THAT IS A
LIMITED TAX GENERAL OBLIGATION
BOND FUND.
THESE ARE MONIES FROM A BOND
THAT ARE AFFORDABLE HOUSING
LOANS.
THE AFFORDABLE HOUSING LOANS
HAVE BEEN AWARDED, HOWEVER THEY
COULD NOT BE ENCUMBERED IN THE
FINANCIAL SYSTEM UNTIL THE
LOANS CLOSE.
THIS JUST THAT MONEY FORWARD
UNTIL THE PROCESS IS COMPLETE.
>> THANK YOU.
>> WE HAVE 2.8 MILLION-DOLLAR
INCREASE IN FAS FOR SEATTLE
MUNICIPAL TOWER LAND LEASE.
AND SO FAS, THE CITY OWNS THE
SEATTLE INVISIBLE TOWER,
HOWEVER THE CITY DOES NOT OWN
THE LAND UNDERNEATH.
THE STATE OF WASHINGTON DOES.
SO THIS PARTICULAR LEASE
TECHNICALLY EXPIRED IN 2017.
WE ARE IN THE PROCESS OF
RENEGOTIATING THE ACTUAL ANNUAL
LEASE RATE.
IT WILL GO UP, WE KNOW THAT.
I UNDERSTAND THAT THE BUDGET IS
SIZED TO EVENTUALLY MAKE THOSE
PAYMENTS.
HOWEVER, UNTIL THE INK IS DRY,
WE HAVE IT FINALIZED AND WE ARE
PAYING THE OLD LEASE AMOUNT.
THIS RESERVES THE AUTHORITY TO
PAY THOSE RETROACTIVE TRUE
PAYMENTS WHEN WE SIGNED THE
LEASE.
>> THE NEXT IS A TO MILLION-
DOLLAR INCREASED CHILD CARE
CONSTRUCTION WITH A CHILD CARE
BONUS.
AND AN INCREASE TO COMPLETE THE
CENTRAL LIBRARY MATERIALS
HANDLED IN THE SYSTEM.
>> DO WE KNOW WITH THE $2
MILLION IS GOING FOR THE CHILD
CARE FACILITY CAPITAL?
>> I BELIEVE THERE ARE SPECIFIC
PROJECTS THAT HAVE BEEN
IDENTIFIED AND OFF THE TOP OF
MY HEAD I CAN'T TELL YOU WHAT
THEY ARE.
>> IT IS QUALIFYING BUILDINGS
IN DOWNTOWN AND UNION AREAS OF
THE CITY?
>> I BELIEVE THERE IS A FUND
BALANCE.
IT IS PART OF THE BONUS.
PEOPLE PAY INTO THE FUND.
AND WE ARE CONSTANTLY LOOKING
FOR PROJECTS THAT COULD BE
ELIGIBLE FOR THE USE OF THE
DOLLARS.
THE NARRATIVE HERE IS THAT THEY
WERE IDENTIFIED IN 2018.
AND APPROPRIATIONS WERE MADE
AND THEY PUT WORK NOT COMPLETE.
BUT WE CAN GET YOU THE DETAILS
ON THIS PROJECT.
>> WE WILL BE TALKING MORE
ABOUT THAT FOR THE UPCOMING
BUDGET.
THANK YOU FOR HIGHLIGHTING
THIS.
>> SO THANK YOU.
I WILL MOVE OFF INTO THE NEXT
ITEM.
UNLESS THERE ARE ANY FURTHER
QUESTIONS.
THIS IS ACTUALLY AGENDA ITEM
NUMBER SIX.
WHICH RELATES TO COUNSEL BILL
119574.
THIS IS THE COMPETENCE OF GRANT
ACCEPTANCE ORDINANCE AND SO
THIS ACTUALLY HAS A
RELATIONSHIP WITH THE
SUPPLEMENTAL ORDINANCE THAT WE
WILL DISCUSS.
SOON.
ON THE AGENDA.
WHAT THIS DOES IS, WHEN A THIRD
PARTY WANTS TO GIVE THE CITY
MONEY TO DO A THING, WE
ACTUALLY HAVE TO GO THROUGH THE
FORMAL PROCESS OF ACCEPTING
THAT MONEY.
SO THAT IS WHAT THIS ORDINANCE
DOES.
IT HAS $3.7 MILLION WORTH OF
GRANTS THAT ARE COMING IN FROM
A VARIETY OF THIRD PARTIES THAT
I WILL RUN THROUGH QUICKLY.
SO THE TRICK IS, THIS DOESN'T
ACTUALLY SPEND THE MONEY.
THIS JUST ACCEPTS THE GRANTS.
IT IS A TWO-STEP PROCESS IN THE
SECOND STEP WE WILL GET TO WITH
THE SUPPLEMENTAL BUDGET.
>> SO HIGHLIGHTS.
THERE ARE $2 MILLION FROM THE
STATE AND RECREATION
CONSERVATION OFFICE.
TO THE PARK FUND.
FOR A NUMBER OF PROJECTS,
INCLUDING $1 MILLION FOR THE
MARINA.
855,004 CONSTRUCTION WORK ON A
FLOATING AND BOARDWALK TRAIL ON
FOSTER ISLAND.
$200,000 TO COMPLETE FINAL
DESIGNS FOR SHORELINE
RESTORATION AT LLAMA BEACH
PARK.
$773,000 FROM THE STATE
HERITAGE CAPITAL PROJECT GRANT,
GOING TO CITY LIGHT FOR
CONCRETE RESTORATION.
THE GEORGETOWN STEAM PLANT.
$250,000 FROM THE FEDERAL
JUSTICE ASSISTANT GRANT
PROGRAM.
IT GOES TO AS PDE TO FIND THREE
EXISTING CRIME PREVENTION
COORDINATORS.
THERE IS JUST I HAVE $170,000
FOR TWO GRANT PROGRAMS IN STATE
PARKS.
GOING TO AS PDE TO SUPPORT
MARINE PATROLS AND VOTER
EDUCATION CLASSES.
$450,000 FROM KING COUNTY YOUTH
AND AMATEUR SPORTS.
GOING TO THE PARKS AND
RECREATION FUND FOR PLAYGROUND
AND SYNTHETICS HER AND A
PLAYFIELD CONSTRUCTION.
THERE IS $25,000 FROM KING
COUNTY CONSERVATION DISTRICT
BEING GIVEN TO THE OFFICE OF
SUSTAINABILITY AND ENVIRONMENT
FOR A FRESH BOX PROGRAM.
DROWNED IT OUT, $21,000 FROM
THE ASSOCIATION OF SHERIFFS AND
POLICE CHIEFS GOING TO AS PDE
FOR SCANNERS AND PRINTERS TO BE
USED BY THE HARBOR AND TRAFFIC
UNITS.
>> A TOTAL OF $3.7 MILLION OF
GRANTS?
>> THAT IS CORRECT.
>> VERY GOOD.
THAT SEEMS LIKE A PRETTY
STRAIGHTFORWARD ONE.
>> IT IS FAIRLY
STRAIGHTFORWARD.
ALL OF THE ACTUAL PREPARATIONS
WILL BE COVERED AND THE NEXT
ONE TALK ABOUT.
>> VERY GOOD.
>> OKAY.
SO NOW WE WILL BE TALKING
AGENDA ITEM NUMBER THREE.
>> WE ARE HAPPY THAT THINGS ARE
MOVING ALONG IN SUCH A NICE
WAY.
THANK YOU.
>> GREAT.
SO THIS IS THE LARGEST PIECE OF
LEGISLATION WE WILL TALK ABOUT
TODAY.
AND IT IS A BELT 119575, WHICH
IS THE FIRST ACTUAL
SUPPLEMENTAL BUDGET ADJUSTMENTS
FOR 2019.
SO WHERE THE EXCEPTIONS AND
CARRYFORWARDS, WHERE THE
LINKAGE BETWEEN THE 2018 AND
2010, THIS IS PURE NEW ADS FOR
THE 2019 BUDGET.
THE TOTAL INCREASE THAT IS
COVERED BY THE LEGISLATION IS
$72 MILLION.
6.9 OF WHICH IS IN THE GENERAL
FUND.
AND AGAIN, TO KIND OF HARKEN
BACK TO THE LAST BILL, $3.7
MILLION OF THAT IS ACTUALLY
GRANTS THAT WE CAN ACCEPT AND
SPEND.
A LITTLE SHY OF HALF MILLION
DOLLARS OF THAT IS IN THE
GENERAL FUND.
OF THE PROPOSED TOTAL 72
MILLION-DOLLAR INCREASE, 19.5
IS BACKED BY NEW REVENUE.
NEW NON-GRANT REVENUE.
THESE INCLUDE INTERFUND
TRANSFERS AND REIMBURSEMENTS
AND FEE REVENUE.
>> ON THIS POINT I WOULD
HIGHLIGHT IT IS NOT OBVIOUS
HERE.
I CAN SHOW MY MATH BUT WE AS
PART OF THE OVERALL BUDGET
PROCESS, WE INSTRUCTED THE
DEPARTMENTS TO KEEP THE REQUEST
FOR NEW GENERAL FUND SUPPORT,
NEW NEWS OF EXISTING FUNDS TO
AN ABSOLUTE MINIMUM.
IT IS CONSISTENT WITH THE
MESSAGE THAT THE 2020 ENDORSED
BUDGET IS A BUDGET WE INTEND TO
DELIVER.
TO THE COUNCIL.
THE REVENUE PICTURE HAS NOT
CHANGED SIGNIFICANTLY AT THIS
POINT.
WE ARE WAITING FOR THE NEW
FORECAST IN THE NEXT MONTHS.
BUT ALTHOUGH THERE IS $7
MILLION IN THE GENERAL FUND,
MOST, ALL OF ABOUT HALF MILLION
DOLLARS IS BACKED BY RESERVES
WE HAD STORED.
MONIES BEING TRANSFERRED FROM
OTHER CITY DEPARTMENTS.
OVERALL, THE NET ADDITION IS IN
THE ORDER OF HALF MILLION
DOLLARS OF GENERAL FUND THAT
HAD NOT PREVIOUSLY AND
COMMITTED THAT WOULD BE ENOUGH
AS WE GO THROUGH.
I CAN HIGHLIGHT WITH THOSE
PACIFIC ASKS ARE.
WE WERE FROM WITH THE
DEPARTMENT ABOUT THE NEED TO
PRESERVE THOSE RESOURCES TO
ADDRESS 2020 ISSUES.
>> SO NOW I WILL JUST WALK
THROUGH SIMILAR TO PRIOR BILLS.
JUST THE HIGHLIGHTS.
COVERING THOSE NOTEWORTHY
ITEMS.
>> YOU ARE ON PAGE 5 NOW?
>> I AM ON PAGE 4.
>> PROBABLY THE MIDDLE OF THE
WAY THROUGH.
>> PAGE 4.
>> SO I WILL START WITH THE
GENERAL FUND.
THE ADJUSTMENTS.
SO WE HAVE A $622,000 INCREASE
GOING TO THE DEPARTMENT OF
NEIGHBORHOODS.
THIS WILL FUND OUTREACH AND
ENGAGEMENT COLLABORATION WITH
SDOT.
LOOKING AT NINE SDOT CAPITAL
OBJECTS.
IT IS A PILOT PROGRAM.
THERE IS A $520,000 INCREASE IN
THE LAW DEPARTMENT DEALING WITH
RENEGOTIATIONS.
AND THIS WILL BE FUNDED WITH
REIMBURSEMENTS FROM THIS GROUP.
THERE ARE A FEW ITEMS COVERED
WITH SWEETENED BEVERAGE TAX
REVENUES.
THESE ARE REVENUES COMING IN
HIGHER THAN FORECASTED.
THEY INCLUDE $1.2 MILLION
INCREASES IN THE HUMAN SERVICES
DEPARTMENT.
IF YOU THINK FACILITY
IMPROVEMENT.
>> REALLY QUICK, THIS IS
TECHNICALLY FROM THE GENERAL
FUND EVEN THOUGH WE CAN
CONSIDER IT INDICATED REVENUE.
IT IS NOT IN MY MATH WHEN I
DESCRIBED THE HALF-MILLION.
WE SAW AN OPPORTUNITY, THERE
WERE UNUSED RESOURCES FROM
PREVIOUS YEARS OF THE SWEETENED
BEVERAGE TAX.
AS YOU KNOW, ONE OF THE
ELIGIBLE USES IS ACCESS TO
FOOD.
INVESTMENTS IN FOOD BANKS.
BUT WE ARE SPENDING HERE IS
UNANTICIPATED REVENUES.
THEY ARE THERE ONE TIME.
THOSE ARE THINGS A CUMULATIVELY
THAT WE DIDN'T EXPECT.
WE DON'T SEE THEM AS ONGOING.
WE HAD THIS ONE TIME RESOURCE.
WE HAVE BEEN APPROACHED BY
SEVERAL FOOD BANKS WHO HAD
SOMEONE TIME CAPITAL LEADS.
SO THERE WAS A REALLY GOOD
MATCH HERE BETWEEN ONE TIME
RESOURCES THAT WERE DEDICATED
TO FOOD ACCESS AND SOME REQUEST
FROM OUR LONG-STANDING PARTNERS
IN THE FOOD DISTRIBUTION
BUSINESS IF YOU WILL.
SO THERE WAS DIRECT ALLOCATION
TO SEVERAL SPECIFIC FOOD BANKS
ALSO SOME OF THE MONEY THAT
WOULD BE MALE IT MADE AVAILABLE
TO OTHERS TO APPLY FOR.
WE JUST WANT TO PROVIDE FUNDING
TO THOSE WHO ASKED, RECOGNIZING
THAT OTHERS MIGHT HAVE NEEDS AS
WELL.
AS LONG AS THEY ARE ONE TIME
CAPITAL NEEDS, I CAN IMAGINE
TENANT IMPROVEMENTS.
PERHAPS A VEHICLE PURCHASE,
SOMETHING LIKE THAT.
THEY WOULD ALSO BE ELIGIBLE.
>> WHAT IS THE TOTAL FOR THAT?
>> TOTAL OF $1.2 MILLION.
$40,000 UNALLOCATED IF I
RECALL.
I WILL GET YOU THE DETAILS.
>> SO $400,000, I AM JUST
PREPPING FOR THE EXPECTATION
THAT ORGANIZATIONS WILL COME
AND BE ASKING FOR THAT MONEY.
SO THAT IS PUT ESSENTIALLY IN A
RESERVE FOR FOOD BANKS AND
OTHERS TO COME IN?
>> HSD WILL BE PROVIDING.
WE WILL BE REACHING OUT TO THE
FOLKS WITH CONTRACTS TO MAKE IT
CLEAR WHAT IS AVAILABLE IN
THESE TYPES OF OPPORTUNITIES.
>> AND WHAT THE LIMITS ARE.
>> EXACTLY.
>> THANK YOU.
>> SO CONTINUING ALONG THAT
THREAD OF THE SWEETENED
BEVERAGE TAX REVENUE, THERE ARE
$680,000 TO THE OFFICE OF
SUSTAINABILITY AND ENVIRONMENT
FOR, TO INCREASE UTILIZATION OF
FRESH BOX.
ALSO GOING TO OSC IS 489,004
PILOT EFFORTS TO EXPAND
ELIGIBILITY FOR FRESH BOX.
>> WHAT I'M HEARING YOU SAY IS
THAT THE MONEY FROM THE SUITE
BEVERAGE TAX IS BEING USED ON
THINGS THAT WE SPECIFICALLY
SAID WE WERE GOING TO INVEST
úIN.
FOOD BANKS.
>> THESE ARE NEW AND EXPANDED
PROGRAMS.
WHAT HAPPENED HERE IS THAT THE
FRESH BOX PROGRAM HAS BEEN
PROVEN TO BE POPULAR AND
SUCCESSFUL THAN WE HAD THOUGHT
IT WOULD BE.
AND THERE ARE RESOURCES
AVAILABLE.
GIVEN WHAT WE SEE, INCREASING
REVENUES GOING FORWARD, THE
SWEETENED BEVERAGE TAX FUND,
THE REASON WE CAN SIX STAINLESS
AS WELL.
>> SO I WILL MOVE NOW TO
ANOTHER KIND OF SET OF
ADJUSTMENTS.
THESE WOULD BE INCREASES TO THE
SEATTLE POLICE DEPARTMENT TO
PROVIDE SERVICES FOR OTHER
GOVERNMENT AGENCIES.
INCLUDING $81,000 FROM MARINE
PATROL FOR HUNTS POINT AND
MEDINA.
$100,000 FOR TRAFFIC CONTROL AT
THE COLEMAN FERRY TERMINAL.
AND THEN $232,000 FOR TRAFFIC
CONTROL ASSOCIATED WITH THE
ALASKA PROJECT.
>> I DON'T WANT TO GET TOO DEEP
IN THIS BUT I CAN ANTICIPATE
THAT OTHERS OF MY COLLEAGUES
WILL WANT TO KNOW MORE ABOUT
THE HUNT POINT AND MEDINA
PAYMENTS.
CAN YOU EXPLAIN THAT?
WHAT IS THE QUID PRO QUO FOR
THIS?
>> WE PROVIDE SOME EMERGENCY
RESPONSE SERVICE TO THEM.
FOR AN AGREEMENT.
WE GET COMPENSATED AND I CAN
PROVIDE ADDITIONAL DETAILS BUT
I WOULD HAVE TO FURTHER
RESEARCH.
>> THE ESSENTIAL DYNAMIC IS
THAT SPD HAS A POLICE BOAT OUT
ON LAKE WASHINGTON.
THEY ARE WILLING TO RESPOND TO
CALLS COME IN FROM OTHER THAN
JUST THE LIMIT, THE CITY LIMITS
OF SEATTLE.
IN EXCHANGE FOR THAT, THE
WILLINGNESS TO HAVE CONTRACTUAL
ARRANGEMENTS.
>> SOAP MEDINA AND HUNTS POINT
IS PROVIDING $81,000 TO THE
CITY OF SEATTLE FOR THE SERVICES
THAT ARE BEING PROVIDED TO
THEM?
>> YOU CAN APPRECIATE IT IS
MUTUALLY BENEFICIAL.
IT WOULDN'T COST YOU FOR THEM
TO HAVE THEIR OWN STAFF THOUGH.
YOU HAVE THE VOTE OUT THERE
ANYWAY.
>> IT HELPS US THE FREIGHT THE
COST.
>> SO AN UNRELATED ITEM BUT
ALSO IN THE GENERAL FUND IS
$775,000 TO THE SEATTLE CITY
COURT.
THE MUNICIPAL COURT.
THIS IS USING MONIES FROM THE
STATE ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICE OF
THE COURTS TRIAL COURT
IMPROVEMENT ACCOUNT.
IT FUNDS IMPROVEMENT EFFORTS.
>> I WILL FIND SOMETHING HERE.
>> THESE ARE MONEY THAT ARE
DISTRIBUTED FROM THE
ADMINISTERED OF OFFICE OF THE
COURSE.
THE LOCAL COURTS, WE HAVE
ACCUMULATED AMOUNTS TOTALING
$775,000 THAT IS NOW BEING
DIRECTED TOWARDS OUR SJ I
TRAINING AT THE COURT.
>> IF I COULD SAY A BIT MORE
ABOUT THIS ONE.
THIS IS SPECIFIC REQUEST FROM
THE INVISIBLE COURT ITSELF.
WE ARE IN LARGE PART PASSING
AND HAD AN OPPORTUNITY TO
REVIEW IT AS WELL.
A LITTLE MORE DETAIL, $40,000
IN OUR SJ I TRAINING.
$250,000 TO DO STRATEGIC
PLANNING AND COMMITTEE
OUTREACH.
INRESPONSE TO CONCERNS ABOUT
PROBATIONARY SERVICES AND OTHER
ISSUES THAT WOULD BE, THE GOAL
IS TO GO INTO THE COMMUNITY AND
GET A BETTER SENSE OF THE
MUNICIPAL COURT AND IT CAN WORK
BETTER FOR THE COMMUNITY.
ACTUALLY $135,000 TO DO AN
EVALUATION OF PROBATIONARY
SERVICES SPECIFICALLY.
ALSO $350,000 TO DO SOME SPACE
RECONFIGURATION AT THE
COURTHOUSE.
THOSE ARE INDIVIDUAL ITEMS
WITHIN THAT 775.
THE COURT CAN ACTUALLY GIVE YOU
MORE DETAILS AS WELL AS WE CAN.
>> I'M SURE WE WILL BE TALKING
MORE ABOUT THAT.
THANK YOU.
>> SO THE NEXT INCREASED NOTE
IS THE TWO AND $50,000 INCREASE
IN THE LAW DEPARTMENT.
THIS RELATES TO A BUDGET
REDUCTION THAT WAS SCHEDULED
FOR THIS YEAR.
THIS RELATES TO, IT WAS
SUPPOSED TO BE A SALARY SAVINGS
CUT.
HOWEVER, THE LAW DEPARTMENT
REPORTS THAT THEY DON'T HAVE
EFFICIENT VACANCIES TO MEET
THIS CUT.
SO THIS PROVIDES THE RESOURCES
TO PAY THE SALARY FOR THE YEAR.
NOT MAKE THE CUT.
>> THIS IS A SPECIFIC REQUEST
OF THE CITY ATTORNEY.
WE REVIEWED AND UNDERSTAND THE
DYNAMICS.
AGAIN, I WAS DESCRIBE AND HALF
MILLION DOLLARS IN
EXPENDITURES.
THIS IS A SHARE OF THAT.
THIS IS THE NEW MONEY WE WOULD
OTHERWISE COUNT.
THE REDUCTION HERE.
AT THIS POINT I DON'T THINK IT
IS REALISTIC FOR THE DEPARTMENT
TO BE ABLE TO ACHIEVE THIS.
>> EXPLAINED THAT $250,000.
IT IS GOING BACK FOR HOW MANY
POSITIONS?
>> IT IS, IT GIVES THEM THE
FLEXIBILITY TO PROVIDE
APPROPRIATE COMPENSATION FOR
MORE THAN ONE POSITION.
IT IS JUST TRYING TO MANAGE
OVERALL COMPENSATION STRUCTURE
WITHIN THE OFFICE.
WE ARE NOT LOOKING FOR POSITION
OF AUTHORITY.
>> UP THROUGH SOME OF THE HIGH
PERFORMERS AS AN EXAMPLE?
>> I WOULD DEFER TO THE CITY
ATTORNEY.
IN TERMS OF, THE STRATEGY AND
COMPENSATION PHILOSOPHY.
>> I THINK, YET.
THE CITY ATTORNEY WOULD BE THE
BEST SOURCE FOR THAT KIND OF
PHILOSOPHICAL APPROACH.
THE IDEAS THAT THERE WAS
EFFECTIVELY A REDUCTION PUT
INTO THE BUDGET FOR THIS YEAR
LAST YEAR.
AND IF THAT IS LEFT IN PLACE,
THEY WILL HAVE LESS MONEY FOR
ALL PURPOSES.
BUT THEY HAVE INDICATED IS
BEING AN ORGANIZATION THEY ARE,
THE MOST LOGICAL PLACE THAT CAN
GO IS SALARIES.
UNLESS THEY ACTUALLY ARE FORCED
TO MAKE THE REDUCTIONS, THEY
WILL NOT NECESSARILY BE CLEAR
WHAT IT IS THAT THEY WOULD DO
OR WHAT THEY WOULD SPEND LESSER
AMOUNT SON.
>> I WILL ALSO REACH OUT TO THE
CITY ATTORNEY HOLMES ABOUT THIS
GOING FORWARD.
BUT IF YOU HAVE ANY MORE
SPECIFICS BETWEEN NOW AND WHEN
WE VOTE IT WOULD BE HELPFUL.
>> OF COURSE.
>> SO MOVING DOWN THE LIST,
THERE IS A $219,000 INCREASE TO
THE OFFICE OF ECONOMIC
INVOLVEMENT.
SO WHAT THIS DOES IS IT GIVES
THEM THE ABILITY, WELL, THERE
WAS AN AUDIT'S IN THE COMMUNITY
DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT PROGRAM
IN 2017 THAT FOUND THAT MONEY
THAT WAS SPENT FROM THE CDBG
GRANT, THE ONLY ONE IN SEATTLE,
DIDN'T MEET THE REQUIREMENTS
FOR THE CDBG MONEY.
AND SO THAT HAD TO BE REPAID BY
OED, WHICH THEY DID SO.
HOWEVER, THAT LEAVES A HOLE IN
THE BUDGET FOR 2019.
THIS BACK FILLS THAT PAYMENT.
>> FOR OUR OFFICE OF ECONOMIC
DEVELOPMENT?
THAT IS WHERE THE MONEY IS
BEING BACKFILLED?
>> LAST YEAR BUDGET WAS ONE OF
THE FIRST TIMES THAT I HAD SEEN
THIS.
THE RESULT OF THE WHOLESALE
REQUEST FOR PEOPLE, ESPECIALLY
NONPROFITS, THAT WE ARE LOOKING
FOR MONEY AND THEY ASKED THAT
IT NOT BE GIVEN CDBG MONEY
BECAUSE THE COMMUNITY
DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT HAD
VARIOUS STRINGS ATTACHED TO IT,
WHETHER IT WAS A REPORTING
REQUIREMENT OR HOW THEY GOT THE
MONEY AND THERE WERE REAL
REQUESTS LIKE DON'T DO THAT TO
US.
SO I HOPE THAT GOING FORWARD WE
CAN GET THAT IN ADVANCE.
>> THIS IS SLIGHTLY DIFFERENT
IN THAT THE COMMUNITY
DEVELOPMET LOT GRANT, THEY ARE
TWO COLORS OF BLACK GRANT
MONEY.
ONE IS PROGRAMS AND ONE IS
PROJECTS.
AND THE PROGRAMMATIC SPENDING
IS MORE CONSTRAINED.
WE USE IT IN HUMAN SERVICES.
AND SO WHAT HAPPENED HERE IS WE
HAD THOUGHT THAT THE OED WAS
APPROPRIATELY CHARACTERIZED AS
A PROJECT RATHER THAN A
SERVICE.
NOT A PROGRAM.
SAID WE HAD BEEN ATTRIBUTING TO
THE PROJECT SIDE OF THE
IMMUNITY BLOCK GRANT.
THE AUDIT REVEALED FROM THE
FEDERAL GOVERNMENT'S
PERSPECTIVE, IT WAS ACTUALLY A
SERVICE.
SO WE HAD TO SUCCESS AND THEN
WE WOULD ACTUALLY WORK ON, WE
ARE NOW CONSIDERING HOW, TO
MOVE ON WITH THIS ISSUE GOING
FORWARD.
OED WITH USING COMMUNITY BUT
GRANT MONEY FOR WHAT ARE NOW
CHARACTERIZED BY THE FEDERAL
GOVERNMENT AS SERVICES IN A
NUMBER OF AREAS THEN WE HAD
PREVIOUSLY THOUGHT.
WE CAN'T USE THAT FUNDING
SOURCE FOR THOSE PROGRAMS
ANYMORE.
WE ARE LOOKING AT BOTH
ALTERNATIVE WAYS OF FUNDING AND
IF THERE ARE OTHER ALTERNATIVE
WAYS TO STRUCTURE THE PROGRAM.
IN ADDITION, THERE IS IN THE
CONTEXT OF CONSTRUCTION
PROJECTS, FOR INSTANCE, THE
FEDERAL GOVERNMENT, EVEN IF YOU
ARE APPROPRIATELY
CHARACTERIZED, THERE ARE A
NUMBER OF PUBLICATIONS THAT
PREVAILING WAGES AND BIDDING
REQUIREMENTS DO MAKE THE MONEY
TRICKY TO USE.
PARTICULARLY IF YOU ARE PRETTY
FAR INTO A PROJECT.
IF YOU KNOW ABOUT THE
RESTRICTIONS, THEY ARE EASIER
TO WORK WITH THAN IF YOU PART
WAYS.
>> THANK YOU.
>> ALL RIGHT, TOM?
>> WE WILL MOVE TO OTHER FUNDS.
I WILL MOVE OFF THE GENERAL
FUND.
THEY ARE A FAIRLY SIZABLE
ADJUSTMENT.
$30 MILLION INCREASE IN THE
OFFICE OF HOUSING.
SO THE HOUSING SUPPORT PROGRAM
FUND.
WHAT THIS IS IS MONEY THAT WAS
FROM THE 2018 SALE OF THE
CONVENTION CENTER.
>> I WILL NEED YOU TO DIRECT ME
BACK TO THE MEMO.
I AM ON PAGE 7 OF NINE AT THE
END OF YOUR CDBG.
COULD YOU TELL US WHAT NUMBER
IT IS?
>> I DON'T HAVE THAT, I'M
SORRY.
>> SO IT IS IN ATTACHMENT A?
>> IT IS ON PAGE 5.
>> PAGE 5 OF THE MEMO?
>> PAGE 5 ON THE MEMO.
THIS ONE.
>> GOING BACK.
>> ALL RIGHT.
THANK YOU.
>> SO THERE WERE COME A THERE
ARE AWARDS.
GIVEN FOR THE HOUSING SUPPORT
PROGRAM.
IN 2018.
HOWEVER, THE MONIES WEREN'T
ACTUALLY DISPERSED IN THAT
YEAR.
THE MONEY WILL BE DISPERSED
THIS YEAR.
IT PROVIDES THE APPROPRIATION
AUTHORITY TO DO THAT.
>> THERE ARE A NUMBER OF LOOK
BENEFITS PAYMENTS THAT WERE
ASSOCIATED WITH THE CONVENTION
CENTER.
THESE HOUSING DOLLARS ARE
SIGNIFICANT.
ALSO ON THE SDOT SIDE, THERE
ARE PAYMENT ITEMS.
WE DON'T HAVE TO TOUCH ON THEM.
THE CONVENTION CENTER AGREEMENT
INCLUDED A NUMBER OF PUBLIC
BENEFITS.
>> THAT WAS A BIG DEAL.
BUT TO BE END UP?
$48 MILLION?
>> YEAH.
I WAS JUST ASKED FOR THAT.
I DON'T HAVE IT OFF THE TOP OF
MY HEAD.
>> THERE ARE A NUMBER OF
IMPROVEMENTS REGARDING THE
STREETSCAPE ELSEWHERE IN THESE
ORDINANCES.
THERE ARE APPROPRIATION OF SOME
OF THOSE DOLLARS AS WELL.
THE PROJECT IS MOVING FORWARD
AND IS UNDER ACTIVE
CONSTRUCTION.
>> I KNOW YOU HAVE BEEN A BIG
PART OF THIS.
I WANT TO ACKNOWLEDGE WHAT A
DIFFERENCE THIS IS MAKING.
THE CONVENTION CENTER IS MOVING
FORWARD BUT WE HAVE THE 1.5
THAT WAS ALLOCATED FOR THE LID
I-5 DESIGN.
AND THEN THE WORK.
IT WAS $10 MILLION FOR THE
PARK.
THOSE ARE MAKING A BIG
DIFFERENCE DOWNTOWN.
>> I WANT TO ACKNOWLEDGE THAT.
>> I THINK THE 1.5 LID IS AMONG
THE ITEMS CARRIED FORWARD AS
WELL.
ANYWAY.
JUST TO GIVE YOU A SENSE.
THERE IS A NUMBER OF ELEMENTS
ASSOCIATED WITH THE CONVENTION
CENTER.
>> GREAT, THANK YOU.
>> OKAY.
WE ARE BACK TO PAGE 5 WITH
WEATHER AND HOME REPAIR.
>> I AM BACK ON TRACK.
IN SYNC WITH THE MEMO.
SO THERE'S 1.64, 1.6 MILLION
FOR HOUSING SUPPORT PROGRAM
FUNDS.
THIS IS TECHNICAL CORRECTION.
TO THE OFFICE OF HOUSING
PROGRAM.
THIS IS FUNDED WITH PREVIOUSLY
RECEIVED GRANT REVENUE.
THERE IS 275,000 IN THE OFFICE
OF HOUSING FOR THE MULTIFAMILY
TAX EXEMPTION PROGRAM.
THIS IS ACTUALLY WORKING WITH
THE TECHNOLOGY, DEALING WITH
FACILITATING THE USE OF DATA
AND THE APPLICATIONS FOR THE
PROGRAM.
THIS IS FUNDED WITH PROGRAM
FEES.
SO THERE IS A LARGE CHUNK OF
SEATTLE I.T.
INCREASES IN THE INITIATIVES
PROGRAM.
THIS IS SIMILAR TO THE FAS
PROGRAM AND THE PATH OR
AUTHORITY AND THE EARLIER PASS-
THROUGH AUTHORITY THAT I
TOUCHED ON.
SO THERE IS A SET OF PROJECTS
COVERED IN THE MEMO THAT ARE ON
BEHALF OF THE DEPARTMENT I.T.
IS WORKING ON.
THIS PROVIDES THE AUTHORITY TO
DO THOSE.
>> IS THIS PART OF THIS?
>> IT IS COMING.
>> I'M SORRY, TOM.
I JUST WANTED TO HIGHLIGHT THAT
THERE IS ANOTHER GRANT OF
$300,000 THAT THESE --
>> WE DON'T HAVE TO ACCEPT
THOSE GRANTS.
THEY WENT DIRECTLY TO THE LEAD.
WE ARE NOT ACCEPTING THAT.
>> BE, THEY HAVE THE MONEY BUT
THERE ARE ADDITIONAL I.T.
REQUEST TO HELP IMPLEMENT THE
GRANT, WHICH IS PART OF THE
LEAD PROGRAM BECAUSE WHAT WE
HAVE BEEN STRUGGLING WITH FOR
YEARS IS AROUND THIS DATA
SHARING AND MAKING SURE WE HAVE
THE RIGHT DATA.
THAT WE ARE WORKING WITH KING
COUNTY AND THE LEAD PROGRAM.
SO I THINK THAT WILL BE AN
AMENDMENT THAT WE JUST
DISCUSSED.
SO WE WILL COME BACK TO THAT.
I JUST WANTED TO HIGHLIGHT THAT
SEATTLE I.T.
IS NOT DONE YET.
>> WHAT WE WILL BE DISCUSSING
IS THE BULK OF THE AMENDMENTS
ON NEXT FRIDAY, THE NIGHT.
BUT IT IS GOOD TO HAVE A
PREVIEW WHEN POSSIBLE.
>> COMING SOON.
>> YES.
IF ANYONE WANTS TO HIGHLIGHT
AMENDMENTS AT THE END OF TOM'S
THING WE CAN DO THAT.
IF THEY WANT TO WAIT, THAT IS
FINE TOO.
>> SO NOW I WILL MOVE TO PAGE 6
OF THE MEMO.
>> SO JUST TO TOUCH REALLY
QUICKLY ON CUSTOMER REQUESTED
TENANT IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM.
PREVIOUSLY WHAT WE WERE TALKING
ABOUT THE EXCEPTIONS ORDINANCE.
CHEWING THINGS UP WITH WHAT
HAPPENED LAST YEAR.
THIS IS ACTUALLY ADDING STUFF
THAT HAS BEEN REQUESTED FOR
2019.
THERE IS A $5.4 MILLION
INCREASE IN FAS TO DO THAT
WORK.
AND AGAIN, THE FUNDING THAT HAS
BEEN APPROPRIATED TO THE
INDIVIDUAL DEPARTMENTS AS PART
OF THE 2019 BUDGET.
WE WAIT WILL WE SEE WHATEVER
FAS IS ABLE TO DO.
TO INCREASE THE AUTHORITY AS
THEY ARE READY TO MOVE ON.
>> THERE IS A THREE HALF-
MILLION DOLLAR INCREASE IN THE
TRANSPORTATION FUND.
THAT IS INCLUDED.
IT SUPPORTS CONSTRUCTION
PROJECTS.
THE NORTH 34th STREET AFFECTED
BY KLEIN OF THE MELROSE
PROTECTED BIKE LANE.
THESE ARE BOTH FUNDED BY
FEDERAL GRANTS.
>> THERE IS ACTUALLY SOMETHING
GOING IN THE OPPOSITE
DIRECTION.
AND IT IS THE $720,000
REDUCTION IN THE SPD BODY WORN
CAMERA PROJECT.
AND SO ACTUALLY, IN THE 19-21
BUDGET, CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT
PROGRAM, THERE IS A SHIFT OF
THIS AMOUNT FROM WHAT WAS
INTENDED TO BE A BODY WORN
CAMERA TO VIDEO.
THE IN CAR VIDEO PROJECT
RECEIVED A $721 INCREASE.
THE BODY WORN PROGRAM DID NOT
GET DECREASED AT THAT TIME.
IT HAS TWO SIDES OF THAT
TRANSFER UP.
>> WELCOME, COUNCILMEMBER
GONZALEZ.
>> I APOLOGIZE FOR MY
TARDINESS.
>> YOU HAVE A FEW OTHER THINGS
ON YOUR PLATE.
>> JUST TO GIVE YOU A HEADS UP,
WE ARE ON PAGE 6 OF TOM'S GOOD
MEMO.
AND WE ARE LOOKING AT ITEM
NUMBER FIVE.
>> THANK YOU.
>> SO I HAVE ACTUALLY TALKED
ABOUT SEVERAL OF THE THINGS ON
ITEM 6. SOME OF THE GENERAL
FUND INCREASES.
IF YOU MOVED PAGE 7, HALFWAY
THROUGH THE PAGE, THAT WILL
CATCH US UP.
THERE IS A $6.9 MILLION
INCREASE IN THE 2002 LEVY
MULTIPURPOSE FUND.
THIS GO TO THE OFFICE OF
HOUSING, SUPPORT AND CREATION
OF HOUSING UNITS FOR FIRST-TIME
BUYERS.
THE FUNDING FOR THIS IS
ACTUALLY FROM THE UNSPENT
BALANCES FROM PRIOR YEARS.
>> THERE IS A $425,000 INCREASE
IN THE SEATTLE ARENA FUND.
WHAT THIS IS IS TO REPAY AMOUNTS
TO SEATTLE UNIVERSITY AND THE
UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON FOR
THE LACK OF USE OF THE KEY
ARENA WHILE IT IS BEING WORKED
ON.
THERE WERE PLANS TO HAVE
SEATTLE GAMES.
>> WE WERE CLEAR ON THAT.
CAN I GO TO SIX .9 MILLION ON
THE SUBSIDIES TO CREATE
AFFORDABLE UNITS FOR FIRST-TIME
HOMEBUYERS?
IS THIS THAT 6.9 MILLION IT
GOING TO OH TO BE SPENT IN
2020?
>> IN 2019.
SO I CAN GIVE YOU MORE DETAILS.
SO THERE PROTECTING CLOSINGS IN
2019 FOR'S ESTATE HOMES, NINE
HOMES AT THAT YEAH, TOWNHOUSES.
SIX HOMES IN THE CITY.
AND THEN THEY WILL PURCHASE TWO
PROPERTIES FROM CITY LAKE THAT
ARE A TOTAL OF EIGHT HOMES EACH
THAT THEY WOULD SEND MAKE
AVAILABLE.
THIS IS LOW INCOME
HOMEOWNERSHIP PROGRAM.
COMING TO FRUITION.
THEY HAVE BEEN FUNDING
HISTORICALLY AND NOW IS THE
OPPORTUNITY TO DEPLOY
RESOURCES.
>> EXCELLENT.
THANK YOU.
>> SO WE ARE ON THE HOME
STRETCH.
THERE ARE A NUMBER OF NET
ZEROS.
NO FISCAL IMPACT TRANSFERS.
BUT I CHOSE TO HIGHLIGHT A FEW
OF THEM FOR YOU.
THEY TOUCH ON FINANCE IN
GENERAL.
THERE IS A $500,000 TO HUMAN
SERVICES DEPARTMENTS FOR THE
OPPORTUNITY PROJECT.
THERE IT IS $250,000 GOING TO
HST FOR THE PROCESS TO START A
LOOK PILOT PROGRAM TO DO WITH
RESETTLING INDIGENOUS PEOPLE
AFTER INCARCERATION.
ALSO IN THE AREA OF NET ZERO
TRANSFERS, THERE IS $480,000
THAT IS TRANSFERRED FROM THE
CITY AUDITOR TO HST.
SO THIS IS SWEETENED BEVERAGE
TAX MONEY.
IT IS HOUSED IN THE CITY
AUDITOR'S OFFICE RIGHT NOW.
HOWEVER, A PORTION OF THAT
EVALUATION WORK WILL BE DONE BY
THE PROGRAMS SAVING THE MONEY.
THAT IS WHAT THIS REPRESENTS.
AND SO THOSE ARE THE
PREPARATION CHANGES.
A NUMBER OF POSITION CHANGES.
>> 26 NEW FULL-TIME POSITIONS?
>> CORRECT.
SO HALF OF THEM, RIGHT OFF THE
TOP, THEY ARE IN THE DEPARTMENT
OF CONSTRUCTION AND INSPECTIONS
TO DO, TO WORK ON THE HIGH
LEVEL OF CONSTRUCTION ACTIVITY
AND MASTER PERMITTING
PROCESSES.
I BELIEVE THE INTENT IS TO
SUNSET THOSE POSITIONS IN 2022
AS STATED.
IN THE LEGISLATION.
>> YOU MIGHT RECALL, WE
PROVIDED A MEMO TO THE COUNCIL
INDICATING THAT WE WERE MOVING
ON THESE WITH THE EMERGENCY
POSITION OF AUTHORITY.
THE UNDERSTANDING THAT THERE IS
A SHARED INTEREST IN KEEPING
THE PERMITS MOVING.
THIS USES PERMIT DOLLARS AND WE
SUNSET THE POSITIONS SO IF AND
WHEN, PRESUMABLY WHEN A PERMIT
DECLINES, WE CAN MOVE THE
POSITIONS OFF THE BOOKS AS
APPROPRIATE.
>> WE KEEP EXPECTING THAT.
>> NOT WANTING IT.
BUT AGAIN, THIS IS RECOGNITION
THAT IT HAS NOT HAPPENED YET.
WE STILL HAVE A RESPONSIBILITY
TO MOVE PERMITS.
>> THANK YOU.
>> SO I CAN SPEAK TO A COUPLE
OF THE OTHER THINGS AS WELL.
IT MIGHT BE HELPFUL.
SO ON THE SPD SIDE, THE REQUEST
FOR A POSITION TO ASSIST WITH
INTERNET CRIMES AGAINST
CHILDREN'S UNIT.
REQUEST FOR 2 POSITIONS RELATED
TO PUBLIC DISCLOSURE REQUESTS.
SPD RECEIVES A HUGE VOLUME OF
PUBLIC DISCLOSURE REQUESTS.
THEY HAVE BEEN MEETING THIS
NEED WITH VERY STAFF BUT IT IS
A REAL AND ONGOING NEED.
I RECALL IT IS WELL MORE THAN
HALF OF THE TOTAL PUBLIC
DISCLOSURE REQUEST TO COME TO
THE CITY.
THEY GO TO SPD.
IT IS ALSO A POSITION, I TAKE
IT BACK.
THERE ARE COUPLE OF POSITIONS.
>> THERE IS ONE.
>> IS LABELED AS THE HR.
THE CIVILIAN POSITION IN THE
POLICE DEPARTMENT.
THAT IS SOMETHING WE NEGOTIATED
IF I RECALL.
SO EEO COMPLAINTS.
NOW TO BE HANDLED THAT WAY.
A COUPLE OF POSITIONS IN THE
DEPARTMENT OF HUMAN RESOURCES.
RELATED TO THE NEW
INVESTIGATIONS AND UNITS.
I WILL TAKE ON THE
RESPONSIBILITY FOR REPLACING
THE INVESTIGATIONS FOR THE CITY
OVERALL.
>> THIS IS NOT THE OFFICE OF
THE ON BUT?
>> IT IS NOT THAT.
YOU MIGHT RECALL THAT TO
SIGNIFICANT MOVES IN TERMS OF
EMPLOYEE PROTECTIONS AND AGAIN,
THIS CASE INVESTIGATION THAT
WAS MADE IN THE 2019 BUDGET.
ONE WAS THE CREATION OF THE
OFFICE OF THE EMPLOYEE ON BUT
IF YOU WELL.
THAT IS DESIGNED TO BE A UNIT
THAT IS INDEPENDENT OF SCH R.
IT IS INDEPENDENT OF ANY OTHER
PART OF THE CITY.
THE EMPLOYEES HAVE THE PLACE TO
GO TO HAVE A SAFE CONVERSATION
AND GET ADVICE FOR THEMSELVES.
THE OFFICE IS NOW OPEN AND WE
HAD AN OPEN HOUSE THIS WEEK OR
EARLY LAST.
IN ADDITION, THE BUDGETS
PROVIDED FOR A SHIFT OF
WORKPLACE INVESTIGATIONS THAT
ARE CONDUCTED BY CITY
PERSONNEL.
THE PERSONNEL FUNCTIONS.
IN THE PAST, INDIVIDUAL
DEPARTMENT HAD BEEN DOING THE
INVESTIGATIONS WITHIN THE
McCONE RANKS IF YOU WELL.
WHAT WE DID IN THE BUDGET WAS
TO CENTRALIZE AND FUND A
FUNCTION IN THE SD HR.
THEY WOULD TAKE ON THAT ROLE.
SO ANY CONCERN ABOUT CONFLICT
INVESTIGATIONS BEING DR. WITHIN
THE DEPARTMENT, WE WOULD HAVE
THOSE DONE OUTSIDE.
WE LOOKED INTO WHETHER THEY
COULD BE TRANSFERRING STAFF
FROM OTHER DEPARTMENTS TO DO
THAT.
WHAT WE DISCOVERED IS THAT IN
LARGE PART, WE ARE NOT
DEDICATING STAFF FROM OTHER
DEPARTMENTS TO DO THAT.
IT WOULD BE ON A ONE-OFF BASIS.
THEY HAD BEEN HIRING OUTSIDE
EXPERTISE.
IT MAKES SENSE TO CREATE A
COUPLE OF POSITIONS IF WE WOULD
STAGE THE EFFORT WITH THE GOAL
OF HAVING A CENTRALIZED
INVESTIGATIVE FUNCTION.
AGAIN, WHERE CONFLICTS ARE LESS
AN ISSUE.
>> GOOD.
>> ANYTHING FURTHER ON THIS?
>> THE FULL-TIME POSITIONS?
>> THE ONLY THING I WOULD
FURTHER ADD IS THAT THE BULK OF
THESE POSITIONS DON'T ACTUALLY
HAVE AN INCREASE IN THE
EXPENDITURES.
IN MANY CASES, THE BUDGET
AUTHORITY ALREADY EXISTS, IT
JUST CREATES A POCKET.
>> SO WE HAVE MONIES RESERVED?
>> IN SIMILAR SITUATIONS, WE
HAD BEEN PROVIDING THE
FUNCTIONS BY TEMPORARY STAFF.
WE BUILD THAT FUNDING INTO THE
BUDGETS.
THIS RECOGNIZES POTENTIALLY
ONGOING BODIES OF WORK.
SOME ARE REALIZING WHAT WE MAY
HAVE HOPED TO BE TEMPORARY IS
ONGOING.
THE PDR STAFF, IT TURNS OUT THE
REQUESTS ARE NOT DECREASING
VOLUME.
WE WOULD NEED TO STEP UP TO THE
WORK.
>> THANK YOU.
>> COUNCILMEMBER HERBOLD THANK
YOU FOR JOINING US.
I WANT TO RETURN TO ATTACHMENT
A UNDER SECTION 3. THAT IS ITEM
1.5 AND 1.6.
ALLISON HAD A COMMENT OR TWO.
>> THEY DIDN'T MAKE IT INTO THE
MEMO.
THEY ARE SMALLER AMOUNTS BUT I
THINK THEY BOTH HAVE LEGAL
PURPOSES.
I AM GLAD TO SEE WE ARE FUNDING
THEM.
1.5 IS HOMELESS CHILDCARE
PROGRAMS.
1.6 IS GENDER BASED VIOLENCE
PREVENTION'S.
>> I DON'T KNOW IF YOU WANT TO
TAKE SOME TIME TO HIGHLIGHT THE
GOOD WORK?
>> THESE ARE AGAIN A COUPLE OF
SPECIFIC ADS FROM, THAT WE ARE
PROPOSING ON THE GENDER-BASED
VIOLENCE SIDE.
WE RECEIVED A REQUEST FROM
COMMUNITY BASED ORGANIZATIONS
AND WITH LIMITED, WE FULFILLED
THE GENERAL FUND RESOURCE.
A LIMITED AMOUNT IS DESCRIBED
HERE.
THE GOAL IS TO PROVIDE
PROGRAMMING AND CAPACITY
BUILDING.
FOR USE IN YOUNG ADULTS
PREVENTION PROGRAMMING.
AND AGAIN, IN DEAL, AND SOME
WAYS WE ARE ADDRESSING A
TECHNICAL ISSUE OR A TIMING
ISSUE WHERE WE HAD A CONTRACT
IS A CAN SEE HERE FOR HOMELESS
CHILDCARE PROGRAMS THAT RAN TO
THE MIDDLE OF THE YEAR.
WE DIDN'T HAVE APPROPRIATIONS
FOR THE FULL YEAR.
SO WE ARE CREATED, CORRECTING
THAT.
THE FUNDING FOR THIS IS FROM
THE FAMILIES LEVY.
IT IS NOT A CALL IN GENERAL
FUND.
RATHER THE USE OF THOSE
DEDICATED RESOURCES.
>> DID YOU WANT TO ADD ANYTHING
TO THAT?
>> THE GENDER-BASED VIOLENCE, I
THOUGHT IT WAS FANTASTIC THAT
THERE IS CULTURALLY SPECIFIC
OUTREACH AND EDUCATION.
>> THAT WAS THE SPECIFIC ASSET
THEY CAME IN.
WE RECOGNIZED IT WAS A
SHORTFALL.
>> THANK YOU.
WELL LET'S MOVE ONTO ITEM
NUMBER FIVE.
IT IS COUNSEL BILL 119576.
>> ACTUALLY, SINCE I CAME IN
LATE, BEFORE WE MOVE ONTO THE
NEXT ITEM, I WANT TO SPEAK TO
TWO POTENTIAL AMENDMENTS.
>> WE CERTAINLY CAN.
I HAD ALSO THOUGHT WE COULD DO
THAT AT THE END OF THE
PRESENTATION.
>> IF YOU WANT TO DO IT.
>> IF THAT IS WHAT YOUR PLAN
WAS.
I DIDN'T HAVE A CHANCE TO
CONNECT WITH YOU.
>> LET'S KEEP GOING AND WE WILL
COME BACK.
>> WE WILL PRESERVE TIME.
I AM VERY IMPRESSED THAT WE'VE
GOTTEN THIS FAR.
>> CONVENIENTLY, THIS LAST
PIECE, IT WILL BE FAIRLY QUICK.
THERE IS NOT A WHOLE LOT GOING
ON WITH IT.
WHAT THIS IS IS A AGENDA ITEM
NUMBER FIVE.
IT IS COUNSEL BILL 119 576.
THIS IS THE ABANDONMENT CAPITAL
AND GRANT ABANDONMENTS.
WHAT IT DOES IS IT REDUCES THE
2019 BUDGET FOR NON-LAPSING A
PROBATION AUTHORITY OR
APPROPRIATION AUTHORITY WE
OTHERWISE DON'T NEED.
>> WITH THE LAPSING
APPROPRIATION AND WHERE IT
COMES FROM?
>> THE ABUNDANT PORTION OF THE
CITY'S BUDGET IS A QUOTE
UNQUOTE LAPSE IN A PROBATION.
IT ONLY LASTS FOR THE FISCAL
YEAR FOR WHICH IT IS GRANTED.
WHICH IS WHY EARLIER IN THE
MEETING WE DID THINGS AND WE
DISCUSSED CARRYFORWARDS.
WE ARE USING THAT LAPSE IN A
SINGLE YEAR PROBATION AUTHORITY
AND TAKING INTO FUTURE YEARS.
CAPITAL AND GRANT
APPROPRIATIONS IN SOME CASES
ARE UNIQUE IN THAT THEY DO NOT
LAPSE.
THEY EITHER GET FULLY USED UP
OR THEY PERSIST UNTIL ACTION IS
TAKEN TO DIFFUSE THEM SO TO
SPEAK.
SO THAT IS WHAT THIS DOES.
IT LOOKS AT AREAS IN THE BUDGET
WHERE THERE IS PERHAPS MONEY OR
AUTHORITY TO SPEND MONEY THAT
WE NO LONGER NEED.
IT REDUCES THAT AUTHORITY TO
CHEW UP OUR REJECTED NEED WITH
WHAT OUR PETITIONS ARE.
SO JUST IN THE FRAMEWORK OF
LOOKING AT THE BIG STUFF, AS AN
EXAMPLE OF THIS TYPE OF THING,
IT IS A $14.6 MILLION IN THE,
2018 LIMITED GENERAL OBLIGATION
BOND.
>> ITEM 2.7 ON THE ATTACHMENT.
SO THIS IS, THERE WERE GOING TO
BE BOND ISSUED FOR THE ELLIOTT
PROJECT.
HOWEVER, THEY REEVALUATED THE
NEEDS AND DON'T ANTICIPATED
NEEDING THE AUTHORITY TO ISSUE
RESPONSE.
THEY ARE REQUESTING TO REDUCE
THE APPROPRIATION TO CHEW UP
WHAT THEY EXPECTED.
SO THERE ARE A NUMBER OF
INDIVIDUAL ITEMS IN THIS.
BUT THAT IS JUST AN EXAMPLE OF
THE TYPE OF THING THAT WE ARE
DOING.
IT IS REALLY A TECHNICAL
CLEANUP.
>> THAT IS A 14.5796 18 AS WE
SEE IT IN 2.7.
IS THAT MONEY THAT THEY HAD
PLANNED ON?
ARE GOING TO GO TO THE BOND
MARKET TO GET THAT 14 MILLION?
OR DO THEY HAVE THE 14 MILLION
IN THEIR HANDS?
>> AS I UNDERSTAND, THERE WAS
ACTUALLY NO CASH.
IT IS THE FORMER.
WE EXPECTED WE WOULD ISSUE
BONDS.
NOW THE PLANS HAVE CHANGE.
WE WILL NOT ISSUE BONDS.
>> IT DOES OCCASIONALLY HAPPEN.
TO GIVE YOU A SENSE, IF WE HAD
SOLD BONDS AND DISCOVERED WE
DON'T NEED THEM IN THE FULL
AMOUNT, THE STANDARD THING TO
DO WOULD BE TO REPROGRAM THEM.
WE TEND TO DO A BOND SALE EVERY
YEAR.
WE HAVE 20 MILLION LEFT OVER
FROM LAST ARE THAT WE DIDN'T
NEED.
IT HAS TO BE USED FOR CAPITAL
PURPOSES.
WE WERE PLANNING TO ISSUE 60
MILLION THIS YEAR.
NOW WE ONLY NEED TO ISSUE THIS.
IT IS GENERALLY HOW IT WOULD
HAPPEN.
SO IN THESE CASES, WE WERE
ABANDONING A PREPARATIONS.
WE ARE NOT LEAVING CASH ON THE
TABLE.
WHAT WE ARE DOING IS TAKING
AWAY THE APPROPRIATION
AUTHORITY.
IT IS THE CLEANUP.
IN PART BECAUSE THE APARTMENTS
HAVE ADMINISTERED OF AUTHORITY
TO SHIFT SOME OF THE EXISTING A
PREPARATION.
WE WOULD PULL IT BACK THEY
COULDN'T DO IT WITHOUT CHECKING
IN WITH EITHER YOU OR ME
DEPENDING ON THE LEVEL AT WHICH
THEY WANT TO DO THAT.
IT IS CLEANUP.
IT IS IMPORTANT CLEANUP, BUT
THAT IS WHAT IT IS.
>> YOU SEE THIS WITH CAPITAL
BECAUSE OF THE AUTOMATIC
CARRYFORWARD.
AS TOM WAS DESCRIBING.
WHAT HAPPENED WITH THOSE
APPROPRIATIONS.
BUT ALSO, THERE IS A 2018 LTG O
BOND FUND.
THEY WILL NOT CONTINUE TO BE
PROCEEDS GOING INTO THE BOND
FUND BECAUSE THIS PREVENTS THE
ZOMBIE APPROPRIATION THAT 15
YEARS LATER IS STILL ON THE
BOOKS.
>> I THINK MANY OF US WERE
LOOKING AT 14.5 AND THINKING,
IS THAT AVAILABLE?
IF YOU'RE TELLING US IT'S NOT.
>> WE NEVER SOLD THE BONDS TO
GET THE CASH.
IF WE HAD, IT WOULD HAVE BEEN
RESTRICTED ANY CASE.
>> THAT COMPLETES THE COMMENTS
ON THAT.
>> I AM DONE, TOM.
I APPRECIATE IT.
THAT IS THE END OF THE FIVE
ITEMS OF BUSINESS WE HAD HERE.
NOW I AM GOING TO OPEN IT UP TO
COUNCILMEMBER, COUNCILMEMBER
HERBOLD.
THIS IS AN EARLY TRAILER OF
COMING ATTRACTIONS.
WE WILL BE ASKING FOR.
>> PLEASE, GO AHEAD.
>> FANTASTIC.
SO I HAVE TWO ITEMS THAT ARE
BOTH PARTS RELATED ITEMS.
THEY ARE ADDRESSING A SHARED
ISSUE AS IT RELATES TO HOW THE
DEPARTMENT OF NEIGHBORHOODS HAS
RECENTLY CHANGED ITS MAXIMUM
AWARD.
FOR THE NEIGHBORHOOD MATCHING
FUND.
AND SO ONE IS FUNDING FOR THE
MEMORIAL PROJECT.
THE AIDS MEMORIAL PROJECT
RECENTLY PRESENTED TO A JOINT
COMMITTEE OF MY COMMITTEE AND
COUNCILMEMBER, COUNCILMEMBER
JUAREZ'S COMMITTEE.
THIS IS A PROJECT THAT THE
COUNCIL HAS SUPPORTED IN THE
PAST.
IT HAS DEVELOPED PASSED
RESOLUTIONS TO ASK THE
EXECUTIVE TO PUT TOGETHER AN
IDT.
IT HAS BEEN DOING GREAT WORK.
AT THIS LUNCH AND LEARN.
A COUPLE OF WEEKS AGO, WE
LEARNED ABOUT THE WORK OF THE
IDT.
AND THE PROGRESS OF THE AIDS
MEMORIAL PROJECT.
AND THE SHORTFALL THEY HAVE NOW
IS BECAUSE THEY WERE
ANTICIPATING THE ABILITY TO
APPLY TO THE NEIGHBORHOOD
MATCHING FUND FOR $100,000 AS
THEY HAD THE PREVIOUS YEAR.
AND THE LIMITS THIS YEAR FOR
THAT FUND IS $25,000. THAT IS
PER QUARTER.
>> YOU COULD STILL COME BACK
AND ASK FOR $25,000 MORE
NOTABLE TIMES PER YEAR.
>> I THINK THAT IS THE CASE BUT
THE ISSUE IS THE TIMING OF THE
MONEY.
AND THE ABILITY OF THE PROJECT
TO MOVE FORWARD.
>> WITHOUT HAVING TO DO THE
QUARTERLY APPLICATION.
>> AND SO, THIS PARTICULAR
FUNDING WOULD BE FOCUSED ON THE
NARRATIVES PROJECT PART OF THE
PLAN.
WHERE THERE IS A WORK OF
STORYTELLING, WHERE THE
CONSULTANTS HAS GATHERED SELF-
DETERMINED PERSONAL NARRATIVES
RELATED TO HIV AND AIDS FROM
SURVIVORS AND FAMILY MEMBERS OF
PEOPLE WHO HAVE PASSED, PHASE 2
OF THE PROJECT WILL CONTINUE
GATHERING THOSE NARRATIVES AND
BROADEN INCLUSIVITY AND APPLY
LEARNED NARRATIVE GATHERING
BEHAVIORS.
AND IT WILL ALSO WORK TO
SPECIFICALLY REACH OUT TO
PEOPLE WHO SELF DESCRIBE AS
IMMIGRANT REFUGEES LIVING WITH
THIS ABILITIES.
TRANSGENDER, USE,?
OR, THOSE LIVING WITH AIDS OR
THOSE WITHOUT THE LGBTQ
COMMITTEE.
THE IDEA IS TRYING TO HAVE A
WAY OF WORKING WITH A LOCAL
INSTITUTION AND ENSURING THAT
THOSE NARRATIVES LIVE
SOMEWHERE.
THEY HAVE SOME VARIOUS IDEAS
ABOUT HOW TO INTEGRATE THERE
WAS NARRATIVES IN WITH THE ARTS
PROJECT ITSELF.
THE SELF-GUIDED TOURS THAT YOU
CAN HAVE LISTENING DEVICES AS
YOU ARE WALKING THROUGH THE
PATHWAYS.
THAT IS ONE ITEM THAT THEY ARE
EXPLORING.
THE OTHER AMENDMENT IS FOR THE
SEATTLE REPS, SPECIFICALLY FOR
THE PUBLIC WORKS INITIATIVE.
THIS IS THEIR SECOND YEAR OF
DOING PUBLIC WORKS THEATER.
IT IS MODELED ON NEW YORK
CITY'S PUBLIC WORK THERE.
IT, RATHER THAN WORKING WITH
PROFESSIONAL ACTORS, THEY ARE
WORKING WITH PEOPLE WHO COME
FROM VARIOUS COMMUNITIES AND
PEOPLE WHO HAVE NOT HAD AN
EXPERIENCE WITH THEATER.
WITH A THEATER PRODUCTION.
IT IS WORKING WITH GROUPS LIKE
MARY'S PLACE AND A LOT OF
TRYING TO INTEGRATE PEOPLE AND
THEIR LIVED EXPERIENCE WITH THE
EXPERIENCE OF THEATER.
AND SO IT GIVES FOLKS THE
OPPORTUNITY TO NOT ONLY TAKE
CLASSES, ATTEND PERFORMANCE AND
EVENTS BUT ALSO TO JOIN IN THE
CREATION OF ANTICIPATORY
THEATER.
BUILDING COMMUNITY THROUGH LONG-
TERM AND MUTUALLY BENEFICIAL
PARTNERSHIPS WITH LOCAL
NONPROFITS.
THEY ALSO LAST YEAR AT THE
CULMINATION OF THEIR PUBLIC
WORKS REDUCTION, THE
PREPARATION BEFORE THEY WENT
LIVE, ALSO PRESENTED IN MY
COMMITTEE LAST YEAR.
FOR THEIR INAUGURAL PUBLIC
WORKS THEATER PROGRAM.
>> THEY ALSO APPLIED TO THE
DEPARTMENT OF NEIGHBORHOODS.
>> 25,000 THEY WERE HOPING FOR
100.
YOU ARE ADVOCATING FOR THIS
BECAUSE YOU THINK THEY ARE
DOING IMPORTANT WORK.
>> THIS WAS IN UNANTICIPATED
SHIFTED THE DEPARTMENT OF
NEIGHBORHOODS AND FUNDING
POLICIES.
>> THANK YOU.
I HAVE SOME I WOULD LIKE TO
BRING FORWARD.
ONE IS FOR AN EVENING NURSE AT
THE DOWNTOWN EMERGENCY SERVICES
CENTER.
ONE OF THE THINGS THAT WE HAVE
LEARNED OVER THE YEARS IS, WHEN
THE NURSE IS ON SITE, THERE ARE
DRAMATICALLY FEWER CALLS FOR
OUR EMERGENCY SERVICES.
FOR THE FIRST RESPONDERS.
AND WE HAVE GOT DATA TO
DEMONSTRATE THAT IN TERMS OF
CHARTS THAT HAVE BEEN CREATED
BY OUR CHIEF SCOGGINS AND CREW.
WE WANT TO STEP UP BECAUSE IT
WILL SAVE OUR FIRE DEPARTMENT.
AND FIRST RESPONDERS.
IT IS A MUCH BETTER OUTCOME FOR
THE INDIVIDUALS WHO ARE THERE.
HALF OF AN ANNUAL SALARY FOR
THIS IS ABOUT $70,000.
WE ARE WORKING WITH HARBORVIEW
JUST TO BE ABLE TO SAY WE WANT
TO BUILD'S ON THIS.
I THINK IT IS A GOOD
EXPENDITURE.
I WANT TO SAY THANKS TO THE
MAYOR WHEN I TALKED TO HER
ABOUT THIS.
IT IS MY UNDERSTANDING THAT SHE
IS INTENDING TO INCLUDE THIS IN
HER BUDGET.
BUT EXPANDING THE PROGRAM, SHE
RECOGNIZES THE VALUE OF THIS.
SO THAT IS OUR FIRST REQUEST
FOR THAT.
AND THE OTHER, IT IS OUR LEAD
PROGRAM.
LAW ENFORCEMENT ASSISTED
DIVERSION.
WITH HUGE THANKS TO LEAD AND TO
DAN, OUR PROSECUTING ATTORNEY'S
OFFICE.
THEY ASKED FOR AND RECEIVED A
$300,000 GRANT FROM MICROSOFT
TO PROVIDE THEM WITH SOFTWARE
THAT WILL CALM, THAT WILL
ACTUALLY HELP THEM WITH THE
DATA SHARING PLATFORM THAT THEY
NEED.
THAT IS WONDERFUL NEWS BECAUSE
PART OF WHAT THE LEAD PROGRAM
HAS BEEN STRUGGLING WITH BUT
ALSO PEOPLE ON THIS AND HAVE
BEEN FRUSTRATED BY HIS WE HAVE
NOT BEEN ABLE TO HAVE THE
COLLECTIVE DATA THAT IS TALKING
TO THE OTHER PROGRAMS.
SO WE KNOW WHO THE INDIVIDUALS
ARE.
SO WE CAN ACTUALLY FOLLOW THE
OUTCOMES.
HAVE SOME MEASURABLE DATA AND
THEN DETERMINE WHETHER OR NOT
WE ARE REACHING SUCCESS.
THIS SOFTWARE WILL HELP US DO
THAT BUT IN ORDER FOR OUR I.T.
DEPARTMENT TO HELP, THERE IS A
REQUEST TO FUND A HALFTIME
PROJECT MANAGER AND A HALF-TIME
BUSINESS ANALYST FOR
APPROXIMATELY EIGHT MONTHS TO
ASSIST WITH GETTING THIS LEAD
PROGRAM IMPLEMENTED.
WE DO NOT WANT TO DELAY THIS.
IT WOULD BE A RIDICULOUS WASTE
OF THIS SOFTWARE IF WE CAN'T
GET IT EFFECTIVELY INCORPORATED
INTO THE BIGGER PROCESS.
THIS IS WHAT WE HAVE ALL BEEN
ASKING FOR.
IT IS TO DIVERT PEOPLE TO WHAT
WE HAVE TO DO.
WE HAVE TO KNOW WHO WE ARE
DIVERTING.
HOW THEY ARE BEING USED.
HOW THEY ARE CONNECTED WITH
THEIR CASE MANAGERS AND WHERE
THEY ARE GOING.
WITH A HOUSING IS.
HOW THEY ARE DOING.
WE WILL COME BACK WITH MORE
INFORMATION THOSE ARE MY 2.
>> DO HAVE A THIRD?
>> VERY GOOD.
WELL COUNCILMEMBER HERBOLD ,
THANK YOU.
>> COUNCILMEMBER GONZALEZ?
DO YOU HAVE ANYTHING?
COUNCILMEMBER PACHECO?
GENTLEMEN, THANK YOU VERY MUCH
FOR ALL OF YOUR HELP.
TOM, YOUR MEMO WAS TERRIFIC,
>> DID WE DO THAT CIP ALREADY?
>> YES.
>> EVERYTHING ELSE?
>> DID YOU WANT TO ADD
ANYTHING?
>> GO AHEAD.
>> AGENDA ITEMS 2, 3, 4.
>> I DID HAVE A CIP ADJUSTMENT.
AS IT RELATES TO THE HIGHLAND
PARK ROUNDABOUT.
WE CREATED A CIP PAGE FOR THEM.
FOR THAT PROJECT.
IN THE BUDGET PROCESS.
LAST YEAR.
BUT IN DOING SO, WE DIDN'T
CAPTURE THE FULL COMMITMENT
THAT SDOT HAS GENEROUSLY MADE
TO THE PROJECT.
THIS PARTICULAR AMENDMENT DOES
2 THINGS.
IT CAPTURES THE FULL $500,000
COMMITMENT TO THE PROJECT.
THE ADOPTED CIP THAT WE ADDED
THIS PAGE LAST YEAR.
IT ONLY LISTED 200,000 OF THE
300,000.
BUT IT ALSO ADJUSTS THE TOTAL
PRICE OF THE PROJECT.
AND IT ALLOWS FOR AN INCREASE
IN THE ESTIMATED COST IN THE
POTENTIAL DESCRIPTION FOR A
STOPLIGHT AT A LOWER COST AT
THE SAME LOCATION.
AND SDOT HAD BEEN CONSULTED AND
IS AWARE AND IS SUPPORTIVE OF
THIS UPDATE.
>> WILL THERE BE A BUDGET
IMPACT?
I AM NOT UNDERSTANDING.
THEY SPENT $200, $200,000 OUT
OF 500?
>> THIS IS A FUTURE ALLOCATION.
>> WHAT IS THAT?
>> SO FUTURE ALLOCATION FOR, WE
ARE LOOKING AT THE WRONG PAGE.
THERE ARE TWO PAGES ASSOCIATED
WITH THIS ONE.
>> SO FUTURE ALLOCATION FOR
2020 AND AGAIN, I SHOULD ADD
THAT THE 300,000 IS CONTINGENT
UPON US RECEIVING FUNDING FROM
THE STATE.
BECAUSE IT IS CONSIDERED, IT IS
CONSIDERED TO BE A MATCH TO A
STATE GRANT.
SDOT WILL BE APPLYING FOR IT.
>> IS THAT SOMETHING YOU CAN
INCORPORATE?
IN THE CIP?
WHAT IS GOING TO HAPPEN HERE?
>> ON THE PROJECT PAGE FOR THE
PROCESS IS, IT IS MUCH LIKE ANY
OTHER AMENDMENT TO THE
SUPPLEMENTAL.
IT WOULD ADD AN ATTACHMENT WITH
THE REVISED PAGE TO THE
ORDINANCE.
TO THE SUPPLEMENTAL ORDINANCE.
WE CAN FACILITATE THAT.
>> THAT IS GOOD.
>> THAT WORKS FOR ME.
>> VERY GOOD.
THANK YOU FOR THAT.
>> INC.
YOU FOR ANTICIPATING.
THANK YOU FOR GOING THROUGH
THIS WITH A FINE TOOTH CONE.
I APPRECIATE THE BRIEFINGS YOU
PROVIDED ME IN ADVANCE.
NOTHING ELSE?
THANK YOU.
MEETING IS ADJOURNED.
