III. ACTION
A. Resolution No. 5041 (Faber)
Parks, Arts & Recreation Director Daryl Faber briefed the committee
on Resolution No. 5041 which authorizes the Mayor and City Clerk to
execute an agreement between the City of Auburn and the Auburn
Symphony Orchestra (ASO) for tourism promotion services. For the
past several years the City has provided the ASO with financial
support for concert performing arts venue's through the Parks
Department budget process. Any future proposed agreement will
Page 1 of 3
CA.A Page 4 of 90
provide specific scope of services that outlines deliverables, services,
marketing, outreach and performance measures. The committee
expressed an opinion that the proposed Resolution 5041 and
Agreement (Exhibit A) didn't fit a tourism contract package with the
ASO. The committee recommended that a different type of
agreement be created for the ASO funding mechanism.
The committee commented on the following: 1) Concerned that the
13% marketing goal by ASO fell short of a robust marketing campaign
and suggested that this be a higher percentage in an effort to expand
the ASO attendance base; 2) Felt that the ASO web page was out of
date and needed revision to attract more people to concerts; 3) A
current marketing Budget is needed to compliment the ASO business
plan; 4) Vertical Spreadsheet provided with concert dates and other
statistics from 2010 was incomplete and needs to include current
events; 5) Because of a history of not filling the Performing Arts
Center (PAC) with a reasonable attendance, it was suggested that the
ASO consider going to only one (1) performance on a concert
weekend, in as much as the PAC has approximately 1,000 seat
capacity. It is reasonable that this action will save ASO funds that can
be used for other planning. ASO will review this suggestion and
provide further information to the committee; 6) It was noted that past
city sponsorships lacked appropriate recognition of marketing media;
7) Annual ASO Fund Raisers were requested to be held in the City;
8) Complimentary ticket distribution was requested as a marketing tool
and as a method to bolster symphony culture in the community and
elsewhere as needed, and 9) In the September and October time
frame of each year, ASO will provide a Financial Report to the City
that reflects the funds allocated to the ASO.
Staff will provide a revised ASO funding agreement plan to the
committee by March 17, 2014 for review prior to the scheduled
Municipal Services Committee on Monday, March 24, 2014.
Committee discussion followed with no further action taken.
IV. DISCUSSION ITEMS
A. False Alarm Prevention Program (Lee)
Bill Pierson, Assistant Chief (AC) of Police, reported on the False
Alarm Prevention Program. Each year the Auburn Police Department
responds to hundreds of false alarm calls. As a result, the City
enacted Ordinance No. 6216 in 2009 to address this issue and help
reduce these types of calls. Since implementation of this Ordinance,
the City has issued a total of 8,430 alarm permits. Of this total, 466
alarm permits have been suspended due to non-payment or
excessive false alarms. Between 2008 and 2013, false alarm calls
have decreased by 63.0 percent. Chair Peloza remarked that a
citizen inquired about the possibility for the City to consider changing
Page 2 of 3
CA.A Page 5 of 90
to one false alarm per year. AC Pierson commented that one of the
benefits to this Ordinance is that it holds citizens accountable for
maintaining their alarm equipment. The policy is a reminder to
citizens about the importance of having an alarm system and
maintaining communication with the alarm company in order to avoid
false alarm charges. Committee discussion followed and concluded
that the False Alarm policy will remain "as is".
B. AVHS Board Review / Animal Control Licensing Program (Coleman)
Finance Director Shelley Coleman provided a review on the Animal
Control Licensing Program. Figures through January 2014 show an
increase in License sales over the same period in 2013. It is
anticipated that we will receive more licensing revenue this year over
2013 because of familiarity of the city animal shelter and the removal
of the Rabies Certification requirement.
Additionally, Director Coleman requested at last week's AVHS Board
meeting that AVHS include a 'licensing clinic' at all of their community
events in order to promote pet licensing. Mayor Backus inquired
about moving the monthly report on Animal Control Licensing to a
quarterly report. Committee discussion followed and it was agreed
that the written report for the animal control licensing program be
provided quarterly. However, all statistical data will be provided
monthly to the committee for tracking purposes of License sales for
measuring the rabies certification policy change.
C. Project Matrix
The following change was identified for the Project Matrix:
Item 4I: Review date updated.
NOTE: The Municipal Services Committee will not meet on March 10,
2014.
V. ADJOURNMENT
The meeting was adjourned at 4:55 pm. The next regular meeting of the
Municipal Services Committee is scheduled for Monday, March 24, 2014 in
Conference Room 3 of City Hall, 25 West Main Street, Auburn, WA.

Administrative Recommendation:
City Council approve Resolution No. 5041.
Background Summary:
The City of Auburn has supported the Auburn Symphony Orchestra for the past several
years to assist in support of the arts and music education. The sponsorship of the Auburn
Symphony Orchestra allows for cross-promotion with other arts organizations and local
businesses to provide a total entertainment experience which would be beneficial to the
City and to the residents and businesses of the City.
Previous contracts have been specific to Orchestra concerts and Chamber concerts alone.
For 2014, it is proposed that the City enters into one contract with a specific scope of
services that ties to the entire Symphony season rather than individual concerts. The
scope of services includes sponsorships services, marketing, outreach and audience
building, and organizational efforts.
Funding for support of the Auburn Symphony Orchestra in 2014 is already budgeted in the
2014 budget. Funding for 2015 would be part of the 2015-2016 budget process.

WHEREAS, Auburn has authority to enforce State criminal laws of general
applicability against Indian persons committing crimes within that portion of Auburn
located within the boundaries of the Reservation; and,
WHEREAS, the Tribe desires to contract with Auburn to add an additional officer
in those portions of Auburn located within the Reservation where such services would be

authority pursuant to its Constitution to contract with Auburn for such additional
services; and
WHEREAS, Auburn provides law enforcement services to persons residing on or
present within that portion of Auburn located within the Reservation as part of Auburn's
basic level of law enforcement services; and
WHEREAS, through this Agreement Auburn is able to provide an additional law
enforcement officer that will provide additional police services on the Reservation that

Muckleshoot Reservation land. In addition thereto, this Agreement provides for law
enforcement services beyond the Base Level Services, as defined herein. Base Level

1.2 Additional Law Enforcement Services. The City currently provides one
officer to District 6 for Base Level Services, as described in Section 1.1 above. Pursuant
to the terms of this Agreement the City of Auburn will provide the Tribe with one
additional law enforcement officer ("Additional Officer") to the Tribe whose primary
responsibility will be dedicated to patrolling those portions of Auburn located within the
Reservation.
The Additional Officer will at all times remain an employee of the City under the
direct command and control of the Auburn Chief of Police however; the Tribe shall direct
daily patrol and work assignments from the Tribal Chief of Police. The Additional
Officer will work a patrol schedule determined by the Tribal Chief of Police in
accordance with any labor agreements in place with the Auburn Police Officers Guild.
The purpose of this Additional Officer is to increase the police coverage on the
Reservation and during the term of this Agreement the City agrees that it will not count
the Additional Officer towards any current minimum staffing levels for District 6, but
will be at all times in addition to that minimum staffing already in place.
The City of Auburn will make all personnel decisions regarding the Additional
Officer. The City will work with the Muckleshoot Chief and provide the Tribe an
opportunity to comment on employment issues with the Additional Officer. The City
shall make all final decisions regarding the Additional Officer including annual
performance evaluations, promotional opportunities, disciplinary matters and the
Additional Officer shall remain at all times subject to the Auburn Police Department’s
Manual of Standards and City’s Administrative Policies and Procedures. The Tribe shall
participate in the selection process as set out in section 3 below.
The Additional Officer’s duties are the same as that of a general police officer
patrolling on reservation land and shall include but not be limited to providing general
law enforcement services/911 response; providing crime prevention and investigation,
analysis and training to the tribal community. Community policing may also include
block watch or community action programs; problem solving crime and disorder
problems within the tribal community; interaction with and mentoring of tribal youth;
RES.C Page 44 of 90
Page 3
providing special emphasis to community concerns; and building partnerships with
community members with the goal of preventing future crime. In order to further the
purposes of this Agreement the Tribe may provide office space for the Additional
Officer, and a telephone and telephone service.
The Additional Officer will at all times operate under the Auburn Police
Department’s Manual of Standards and Policy and Procedures. While it is the purpose to
provide additional law enforcement services on the Muckleshoot Reservation the parties
recognize that the Additional Officer may be called upon to respond to emergency calls
originating from other portions of Auburn or from parts of the Reservation outside of
Auburn. It is understood by both Parties that the primary role of the Additional Officer is
to patrol Tribal Lands located within the jurisdictional boundaries of the City of Auburn
and any request for service that takes the Additional Officer outside of the Tribal
Reservation should be temporary and of short duration and upon conclusion of any calls
outside of the tribal reservation boundaries the Additional Officer shall report their status
to the Muckleshoot Chief.
1.3 Prosecution of Criminal Cases. The City of Auburn prosecutes
misdemeanors, gross misdemeanors, and other non-felony offences occurring in those
parts of the Reservation located within the corporate boundaries of the City of Auburn in
the court of limited jurisdiction authorized to hear City of Auburn cases. All persons cited
for violations occurring within the portion of the City of Auburn located within the
Reservation shall be initially referred to the City’s prosecutor for processing. Provided
that if violators so referred are determined to be enrolled members of the Muckleshoot
Indian Tribe or members of another federally recognized Indian tribe and the offense is
one prosecutable under Muckleshoot law, those individuals shall be transferred to the
Muckleshoot Indian Tribe Tribal Court for processing and adjudication. Provided further
that if the transfer provided for in this paragraph will cause the City to lose jurisdiction,
the case shall not be referred to the Muckleshoot Indian Tribe Tribal Court, in which
case, the City shall advise the Muckleshoot prosecutor, and both the City and the Tribe
may proceed as permitted by applicable law.
The City of Auburn, its Police Department and the Muckleshoot Police shall
coordinate and consult on the implementation of this section 1.3. Nothing herein shall
limit the ability of the Tribe to refer a case submitted to it under this section back to the
City, as would be appropriate, or to agree with the City on a different disposition of a
particular case.
As used herein, "Indian person" means any enrolled member of a federally-
recognized Indian tribe.
In addition to the referrals set out above, either the County or City Prosecutor may
elect to decline any other case consistent with State law and City and County procedures
in which case the Tribe may elect to prosecute. If a case is cited into the Muckleshoot
Tribal Court, the Auburn police officers shall be available to provide the Muckleshoot
Tribal Prosecuting Attorney with police cooperation and assistance with testimonies in
criminal proceedings to allow cases to be prosecuted in Tribal Court.

will meet to establish a service schedule, discuss community needs, and prioritize duties
consistent with the purposes and requirements of this Agreement. The Tribal Chief of

Interoffice Memorandum
To: Municipal Services Committee
From: Shelley Coleman, Finance Director
CC: Nancy Backus, Mayor
Date: March 24, 2014
Re: Solid Waste – Rate Subsidy
Following a rate study completed in October 2012, the City Council approved increases in solid waste rates
effective January 2013 to fund forecasted operating expenditures through December 2014 (Ordinance
6438, passed on November 19, 2012). As part of this rate study, the City Council directed staff to begin
gradually eliminating inter-class rate subsidies between the residential and commercial customer classes.
The goal was to reduce the inter-class subsidy between commercial and residential to $250,000 in 2013
and $200,000 in 2014. This memorandum informs Council as to the status in the shift of cost recovery in
2013. Highlights of this analysis:
Revised solid waste rates were sufficient to eliminate the subsidy of all residential customers, even
though the City annexed additional customers.
The ending working capital fund balance totaled $1.5 million at the end of 2013, and compares to
$1.1 million as anticipated per the 2012 rate study. The increase in the ending working capital
balance is due to stronger than anticipated revenues from commercial customers.
The City will closely monitor the financial performance of the Solid Waste Utility in 2014. At this
time, no rate increases have been programmed in 2015.
Table 1 on the following page compares the actual 2013 financial performance to planned performance as
per the rate study. Table 2 compares the actual versus planned customer activity as per the rate study.

Background Summary:
Budget Impact:
Current Budget: $120,000.00
Proposed Revision: $5,222.00
Revised Budget: $125,222.00
In August 2013, voters in King County approved King County Proposition No.1,
authorizing an additional six-year property tax levy at a rate of $0.1877 per $1,000 of
assessed valuation in the first year (2014), with subsequent levies adjusted by inflation
(2015-2019). The six-year levy approved in 2014 replaces two six-year King County
park levies that expired at the end of 2013 (King County Parks Levy and the Open
Space and Trails Levy).
According to King County, the 2014 levy would cost approximately $56/year for the
owner of a $300,000 home and would generate approximately $396 million over the six
year period. Monies raised by this levy would be used to support the King County parks
operations/maintenance (47%); county infrastructure, acquisition and trails (39%);
distribution to cities on the basis of population and property assessed valuation (7%);
and distribution to the Woodland Park Zoo (7%).
The estimated distribution to the City of Auburn is $125,222 (in 2014). These
distributions will be receipted into the Parks Construction Fund (Fund #321). The 2014
adopted budget included $120,000 in anticipated distributions from this source.
In order for the City to receive the annual distributions (2014 through 2019), the County
AUBURN * MORE THAN YOU IMAGINEDDI.E Page 79 of 90
requires each city in King County to sign a Parks Property Tax Levy Agreement. This
agreement requires the City to prepare and submit an annual report to the County,
summarizing the use of the levy proceeds and listing of projects for which the funding is
used.
Council approval of Resolution No. 5053 will authorize the Mayor to sign and enter the
City into this six-year agreement with the County. The signed agreement expires on
December 31, 2019.

A. The County owns and operates a park system with over twenty-eight thousand (28,000) acres
of regional parks and open spaces and over one hundred seventy-five (175) miles of regional
trails. In addition, the County is the provider of local parks in the rural area and is the
transitional provider of local parks in the urban incorporated areas.
B. Since 2003, on recommendation of the Metropolitan Parks Task Force and direction from the
County Executive and County Council, the County's Parks and Recreation Division has
focused on managing a system of regional parks, open spaces and trails and a limited set of
regional active recreation assets.
C. Consistent with its role as a regional and local rural service provider under Countywide
Planning Policies and the State Growth Management Act, the County has divested itself of
local parks and facilities in urban unincorporated areas as these areas incorporate or annex to
cities.
D. In November 2006, the County Executive created the Parks Futures Task Force to
recommend a funding plan for the current County park system, and to examine what steps
should be taken, if any, regarding future park s ystem acquisitions.
E. In June of 2012, the County Executive convened the King County Parks Levy Task Force to
recommend a funding plan for the current park system and to examine how to address the
parks and recreation needs of King County residents in the future.
F. The King County Parks Levy Task Force recommended that the County replace the expiring
levies and put a ballot measure before the voters in 2013 that requests a six-year inflation
adjusted property tax levy lift at a total rate of $0.1901 per one thousand dollars of assessed
value with a percentage of the levy proceeds to be distributed to cities for their local parks
system projects.
G. On April 30, 2013, the King County Council adopted Ordinance 17568 which called for a
special election in accordance with RCW 29A.04.321 to authorize an additional 6-year
property tax levy for specified park purposes..
H. On August 6, 2013, King County voters approved Proposition No. 1 Parks Levy that
DI.E Page 83 of 90
Page 2 of 6
authorized an additional six year property tax levy at a rate of $0.1877 in the first year, with
subsequent levies adjusted by inflation for the purpose of: maintaining and operating King
County’s parks system, improving parks, recreation and mobility by acquiring open space,
expanding park and recreation opportunities, continuing to develop regional trails; repairing,
replacing, and improving local parks and trails in King County’s cities; and funding
environmental educations, maintenance, conservation, and capital programs at the Woodland
