Department: Attachments: Budget Impact: Finance Ordinance No. 7012 Administrative Recommendation: City Council to approve Ordinance No. 7012. Background for Motion: Ordinance No. 7012 allows the City to leverage a portion of the State's Sales Tax collections, up to $250,000, to be used for the City's debt service costs related to the 2009 Downtown Revitalization Area Capital Improvements. Background Summary: Ordinance No. 7012 levies a 0.014% Sales Tax Credit against the State Sales Tax for Local Revitalization Financing. Senate Bill 5045, authorizing the tax credit, was passed by the State Legislature during the 2009 regular session. The intent of the legislation was to provide financial assistance to cities, to assist with financing public improvements in an identified revitalization area to promote Community and Economic Development. The City first applied for the use of Local Revitalization Financing on August 11, 2009, and the Department of Revenue approved the City's application on September 16, 2009, authorizing up to $250,000 per year for the Local Revitalization Program (Promenade Capital Improvements). In 2010, the City issued $7.24 million in 2010 C/D Bonds for the purpose of funding Capital Improvements for the Promenade. In October 2020, the City refunded the remaining portion of these bonds by issuing the 2020B LTGO Bonds. The balance of the 2020B bonds at the end of 2025 was $2.94 million. Funds from REET2 funds, combined with EDA grants and interest earnings, are used to pay the annual debt service costs of the Local Revitalization Project. The tax credit is available to the City for up to 25 years. 2026 will be the seventeenth year that the City has asked the State for the tax credit. As provided by the State, in order for the City to continue receiving the Tax Credit, the City must request this each year by Ordinance. Based upon historical taxable retail sales, the above rate of 0.014% is estimated to generate $250,000 for Local Page 17 of 53 Revitalization Funding during the State's fiscal year, July 1, 2026, to June 30, 2027. Councilmember: Hanan Amer Staff: Jamie Thomas Page 18 of 53 ORDINANCE NO. 7012 AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF AUBURN, WASHINGTON, ESTABLISHING THE LOCAL SALES AND USE TAX RATE FOR LOCAL REVITALIZATION FINANCING FOR 2026 WHEREAS, WHEREAS, The City of Auburn ("City") enacted Ordinance No. 6301 on April 19, 2010, which established a local sales and use tax as provided for in RCW 82.14.510; and, WHEREAS, this tax is imposed in order to pay the debt service on Local Revitalization Financing bonds in accordance with Chapter 39.104 RCW; and, WHEREAS, Chapter 39.104 RCW provides that the City shall, from time to time, adjust the tax rate so that it is set at the rate reasonably necessary to receive the state contribution over 10 months, in accordance with RCW 82.14.510(3); and WHEREAS, the Local Sales and Use Tax Rate is set at a rate to generate approximately $250,000 between July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027, for Local Revitalization Financing. NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF AUBURN, WASHINGTON, DO ORDAIN as follows: Section 1.

Department: Attachments: Budget Impact: Public Works Ordinance No. 7013, Vicinity Map Administrative Recommendation: City Council to approve Ordinance No. 7013. Background for Motion: This Ordinance provides for acquisition of property rights for the R St SE/21st St SE Roundabout Project through condemnation from 2 properties. Needed property rights include rights-of-way and temporary easements from a portion of the subject properties. Background Summary: Ordinance No. 7013 was discussed at the January 26, 2026, City Council Study Session meeting. The City has presented offers and is negotiating acquisition of property rights needed for City Project CP2308 - R St SE/21st St SE Roundabout (Project). Ordinance No. 7013 declares public use and necessity regarding the Project and authorizes condemnation action for properties for which negotiations do not lead to agreement and closing. Property owners were given notice of the Ordinance in accordance with State law. Fair market offers and negotiations have taken place and are continuing with property owners in efforts to reach settlement. Condemnation would only be necessary should agreement and settlement stall or fail. The project provides public benefit by providing infrastructure that reduces traffic congestion, provides convenient and comfortable non-motorized travel, and improves safety for all users. The project will construct a single-lane roundabout, new roadway pavement, new pedestrian crossing with pedestrian-activated flashing beacons, a multi-use pathway for bikes and pedestrians, improve streetlighting, and upgrade the water system infrastructure.

Page 45 of 53 CITY OF J\IJBURJ4 AGENDA BILL APPROVAL FORM WASHINGGTTON Agenda Subject: Meeting Date: Resolution No. 5889 (Thomas) February 17, 2026 A Resolution authorizing the Transfer of Funds for the purpose of making loans from the General Fund and/or the Cumulative Reserve Fund to Funds sustained by Grants, Fees, or Tax Credits between February 2026 and February 2029 (RECOMMENDED ACTION: Move to adopt Resolution No. 5889.) Department: Attachments: Budget Impact: Finance Resolution No. 5889 Administrative Recommendation: City Council to adopt Resolution No. 5889. Background for Motion: Resolution No. 5889 authorizes the City's Finance Department to prepare interfund loans from the General Fund or Cumulative Reserve to other funds when necessary for cash flow purposes. This authorization is effective for the period of February 2026 through February 2029. Background Summary: City financial management policies, which are approved as part of the Biennial Budget, provide for issuance of interfund loans with approval from City Council. Interfund loans provide operational flexibility to cover authorized expenditures, such as when the City is awaiting reimbursement of expenses from a grant. Council approval of Resolution No. 5889 will authorize the City's Finance Department to prepare interfund loans, if and when they may be needed. Many of the City's funds are supported by Grants, Fees, or Tax Credits and sometimes there is a delay in receiving timely cost reimbursement. In the event a fund needs additional cash flow, this Resolution will allow the Finance Department to initiate an unbudgeted transfer from the General Fund and/or the Cumulative Reserve Fund to the fund requiring temporary cash flow support. These transfers will only be allowed in the event: 1. The fund requiring funding is supported by Grants, Fees, or Tax Credits and is awaiting reimbursement from these funding sources; and 2. The authority is limited to $2.5 million per fund. 3. The transferred money will be immediately returned to the General Fund and/or Cumulative Reserve fund once the reimbursement has been received. Page 46 of 53 Council authorization is requested to enable the aforementioned flexibility in managing the City's short-term funding needs. This Resolution is an extension of Resolution No. 5698, which expires February 2026. Like the previous legislation, this Resolution is effective for 3 years through February 2029, at which time its authority will lapse. Councilmember: Hanan Amer Staff: Jamie Thomas Page 47 of 53 RESOLUTION NO. 5889 A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF AUBURN, WASHINGTON, AUTHORIZING THE TRANSFER OF FUNDS FOR THE PURPOSE OF MAKING LOANS FROM THE GENERAL FUND AND/OR THE CUMULATIVE RESERVE FUND TO FUNDS SUSTAINED BY GRANTS, FEES, OR TAX CREDITS BETWEEN FEBRUARY 2026 AND FEBRUARY 2029 WHEREAS, there may be insufficient funds available from time to time during the period February 2026 to February 2029 in a fund or funds supported by grants, fees, and/or tax credits to cover authorized expenditures prior to reimbursement from federal, state and local grant monies, which have been approved for allocation to the City and for which contracts have been executed, or the collection of user fees, or the receipt of tax credits from the State of Washington; and WHEREAS, the General Fund and/or the Cumulative Reserve Fund contain sufficient funds for the transfer funds in an amount not to exceed TWO MILLION FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND AND NO/100 DOLLARS ($2,500,000.00) for the purpose of making loans to cover authorized expenditures in funds sustained by grants, fees, or tax credits; and WHEREAS, in the event a loan is made from the General Fund (Fund No. 001) and/or the Cumulative Reserve Fund (Fund No. 122) to a fund sustained by a grant, fee or tax credits, the loan shall be interest free. NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF AUBURN, WASHINGTON, RESOLVES as follows: Section 1. Purpose. During the time period February 2026 to February 2029, the Finance Director is authorized to transfer funds from the General Fund and/or the Resolution No. 5889 February 5, 2026 Page 1 of 3 Rev. 2026 Page 48 of 53 Cumulative Reserve fund to a fund sustained by grants, fees, or tax credits, for the purpose of making an interest free loan to the fund when there are insufficient funds available in the fund to cover authorized expenditures while the City waits for federal, state and local grant monies which have been approved for allocation to the City and for which contracts have been executed, or for the collection of user fees, or for the receipt of tax credits. Any transfer of funds for this purpose shall be in an amount not to exceed TWO MILLION FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND AND NO/100 DOLLARS ($2,500,000.00) per fund per year. Section 2. The Mayor is authorized to implement those administrative procedures necessary to carry out the directives of this Resolution. Section 3.

Department: Attachments: Budget Impact: Legal Resolution No. 5891 Administrative Recommendation: City Council to adopt Resolution No. 5891. Background for Motion: State law restricts the permissible uses of property forfeited due to its involvement in the manufacture of controlled substances. Because the Auburn Police Department has no identified law enforcement need for the subject property that would fall within the uses authorized by State law, it is in the City's best interest to declare the property surplus and proceed with its disposal. Background Summary: On December 16, 2025, the Superior Court of the State of Washington for King County entered an order in Case No. 25-2-24961-1 KNT awarding residential property used in the manufacturing of marijuana, located in Renton at 15603 SE 174th Street, to the City of Auburn. State Law restricts the permissible uses of forfeited property involved in the manufacturing of controlled substances. The Auburn Police Department has reviewed the subject property and has determined that it does not have an operational or programmatic need for the property that would be consistent with the uses authorized under State Law. Proceeds from the sale of the property will be placed into the City's drug forfeiture fund, for uses related to the expansion and improvement of controlled substances law enforcement, as is also required by State Law. Councilmember: Hanan Amer Staff: Jason Whalen Page 51 of 53 RESOLUTION NO. 5891 A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF AUBURN, WASHINGTON, DECLARING CITY-OWNED REAL PROPERTY LOCATED AT 15603 SE 174TH STREET, RENTON, WASHINGTON AS SURPLUS AND AUTHORIZING ITS DISPOSAL WHEREAS, on December 16, 2025, the Superior Court of the State of Washington for King County, pursuant to RCW 69.50.505, entered an order in Case No. 25-2-24961- 1 KNT awarding to the City of Auburn the real property described in Section 1 (the "Property"), upon a finding that the Property was used to facilitate the manufacture of marijuana; and WHEREAS, State law restricts the use of such forfeited property, and the proceeds from the sale thereof, to activities furthering the expansion and improvement of controlled substances law enforcement; and WHEREAS, the Auburn Police Department has no law enforcement use for the Property, and it is therefore in the public interest to declare the Property surplus and to sell the Property at its fair market value; NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF AUBURN, WASHINGTON, RESOLVES as follows: Section 1. That the real property legally described below is unneeded for law enforcement purposes and therefore declared to be surplus.

The Mayor is authorized to dispose of the property through an appropriate fair market sale, implement such administrative procedures as may be necessary to carry out the directives of the legislation, and to deposit any net proceeds from the disposal into the City's drug forfeiture fund.
