B. The County:
The County shall administer funding for the waste reduction and recycling grant program.
Funding is designated by city and is subject to the King County Council's yearly budget approval
process. Provided that the funds are allocated through the King County Council's yearly budget
approval process, grant funding to the City will include a base allocation of $5,000 per year with
the balance of funds to be allocated according to the city's percentage of King County's residential
and employment population. However, if this population based allocation formula calculation
would result in a city receiving less than $10,000 per year, that city shall receive an additional
allocation that would raise their total grant funding to $10,000 per year.
The City of Auburn`s budgeted grant funds for 2006 are $25,101. This reflects the City's base
allocation of $48,759 minus $23,658 withheld by -King County to provide Recycling Collection
Events to residents of the City of Auburn. Unspent 2006 funds maybe carried over to 2007, but
2007 funds will not carry over to 2008.

The City of Auburn `s estimated grant funds for 2007 are $25,101. 2007 funds are not available
until January 1, 2007, and 2007 funding is contingent upon King County Council approval of the
2007 King County budget. Following approval of the 2007 King County budget, the County's
grant program administrator will notify the city of the fina12007 grant funding.
2. Within forty-five (45) days of receiving a request for reimbursement from the City, the County
shall either notify the City of any exceptions to the request which have been identified or shall
process the request for payment. If any exceptions to the request are made, this shall be done by
written notification to the City providing the reason for such exception. The County will not
authorize payment for activities and/or expenditures which are not included in the scope of work
and budget attached as Exhibit A, unless the scope has been amended according to Section V of
this Agreement. King County retains the right to withhold all or partial payment if the City's
report(s) and reimbursement request(s) are incomplete (i.e., do not include proper documentation
of expenditures and/or adequate description of each activity described in the scope of work for
which reimbursement is being requested), and/or are not consistent with the scope of work and
budget attached as Exhibit A.
3. The County agrees to credit the City on all printed materials provided by the City to the County,
which the County duplicates, for distribution. Either the City's name and logo will appear on
such materials (including fact sheets, case studies, etc.), or, at a minimum, the County will credit
the City for artwork or text provided by the City as follows: "artwork provided courtesy of the
City of Auburn" and/or "text provided courtesy of the City of Auburn".
4. The County retains the right to share the written material(s) produced by the City which have
been funded through this program with other King County cities for them to duplicate and
distribute. In so doing, the County will encourage other cities to credit the City on any pieces that
were produced by the City.

Manager, or designee, to be specified by the King County Solid Waste Division.

Grant Administration:
Requests for Reimbursement:
Cities may submit as few as two requests for reimbursement during the funding cycle, with the
first request due by January 31, 2007 and the final request due no later than March 15, 2008.
However, cities may submit requests for reimbursement as frequently as quarterly. Quarterly
requests should be submitted on April 30, July 31, Oct. 31 and Jan 31 of each year, except for the
final request for reimbursement, which is due no later than March 15, 2008. The Budget
Summary Report Form (Attachment 4) must be used when submitting requests for
reimbursement.
By December 315` of each year of the grant cycle, cities must notify SWD of their total
expenditures for work that has been completed to-date, but for which requests for
reimbursement have not yet been submitted.
Progress and Final Reports:
Progress reports describing program activities, accomplishments and evaluation results need to
accompany each request for reimbursement. A final report describing the outcome of grant-
funded activities is due with the final request for reimbursement. If, however, the city does not
have the results of its program evaluation by the end of the grant cycle, the final narrative report
may be submitted no later than six months after the end of the grant cycle on June 30, 2008.
(Note: The final request for reimbursement would still need to be submitted by March 15, 2008.)
All Progress and Final Reports need to be signed by a city official. Signed reports may be
submitted via facsimile.
Amendments:
Formal amendments to grant ILAs are not necessary unless the city wishes to make significant
changes to its scope of work and/or budget. In general, a significant change would be one in
which the city wishes to add or delete a task from their scope of work. A minor change, such as
moving dollars between tasks, would only require written notification, which may be submitted
via a-mail. However, the city should contact the Division when considering changes to their
scopes and budgets to determine if a formal amendment is needed.

The above captioned entity is a member of the Washington Cities Insurance Authority
(WCIA), which is a self insured pool of over 117 municipal corporations in the State of
Washington.
WCIA has at least $1 million per occurrence combined single limit of liability coverage
in its self insured layer that may be applicable in the event an incident occurs that is
deemed to be attributed to the negligence of the member.
WCIA is an Interlocal Agreement among municipalities and liability is completely self
funded by the membership. As there is no insurance policy involved and WCIA is not
an insurance company, your organization cannot be named as an "additional insured'.
Sincerely,
Eric B. Larson
Deputy Director
