Collectively, the County and City will be referred to as “Party” or “Parties.” 1. RECITALS 1.1 In 2022, King County launched the Re+ initiative to reinvent the region’s waste system to keep materials in use longer and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. The City of Renton signed onto the Re+ Pledge affirming their support and collaboration towards the shared vision that Re+ represents. The County developed the Re+ City Grant Program, as authorized in King County Code 10.14.025, to support Cities’ efforts to invest in, develop, and deliver on projects that help create a more circular economy, where waste is minimized, materials are kept in use longer, and natural systems are regenerated. Cities that operate under the Solid Waste Comprehensive Management Plan that have signed the Re+ Pledge are eligible to apply for this competitive funding. 1.2 King County has developed the criteria for program eligibility in the Grant Guidelines, attached hereto and incorporated herein as Exhibit A. King County has received a proposed scope of work and budget from the City and has determined that the scope of work and budget, attached hereto and incorporated herein as Exhibit B, are consistent with the Re+ Program and with the Grant Guidelines. 1.3 King County and the City desire to enter into this Agreement for the purpose of establishing the terms and conditions under which King County will provide an award of Re+ City Grant Program funding to the City subject to the budget approval process of the King County Council. NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of mutual promises and covenants contained herein, the Parties hereby agree to the terms and conditions as follows: DocuSign Envelope ID: 68B0BC7E-5E67-4659-95B3-14EBC6A92A96 2 2. AWARD OF GRANT; CONDITIONS OF GRANT 2.1 The Recitals are an integral part of this Agreement and are incorporated herein by this reference. 2.2 King County agrees to grant the City an award of Re+ City Grant Program funds not to exceed $100,000.00 (the “Award”) on a reimbursement basis as described in Section 2.4. The Award shall be used by the City solely for the performance of the activities described in this Agreement. 2.3 The City shall use the grant of Re+ City Grant Program funds to provide waste reduction and recycling programs and/or services as outlined in Exhibit B. The total amount of funds available from this grant in 2023 and 2024 shall not exceed $100,000.00. 2.4 This Agreement provides for distribution of 2023 and 2024 grant funds to the City. Reimbursement for activities carried out and expenses incurred by the City may predate the execution date of this Agreement provided that a) the activities occurred after the City accepts the County’s award notification in writing; b) the activities have been identified by the City as being within the Grant Guidelines, attached herein as Exhibit A, and Scope of Work, attached herein as Exhibit B; b) the expenses are incurred in carrying out the Scope of Work and are authorized by this Award; and c) such activities and expenses otherwise comply with all other terms of this Agreement.

If the City chooses to submit the minimum of two progress reports and requests for reimbursement during the two-year grant program, they shall be due to the County by March 15, 2024 and March 21, 2025.

The King County Solid Waste Division (SWD) is not responsible for any technical difficulties that an Applicant may experience, and late submissions will result in the rejection of a proposal. III. Background King County Solid Waste Division (SWD) is responsible for the public solid waste system that serves the people and communities of unincorporated King County and most cities within King County. At SWD, our work delivers on the goal of zero wasted resources to the landfill by 2030. King County's Re+ Program is a key part of delivering this goal. It provides a roadmap for a healthy environment and economy by reinventing the current waste management system, preventing material generation, and finding a new purpose for the 70% of recyclable materials that go to the Cedar Hills Regional Landfill each day. Preventing, reusing, and recycling materials has significant benefits for people living and working in King County, including tackling the climate emergency by reducing greenhouse gases that are emitted throughout the lifecycle of materials and products. Equity and Social Justice (ESJ) is foundational to the work of King County and SWD. SWD seeks to invest in community-informed projects that recognize and address the disparities in communities. We aim to ensure that all people, regardless of who they are and where they live, have the opportunity to thrive with full and equal access to opportunities, power, and resources. IV. Grant description The new Re+ City Grant Program supports projects that further King County’s goal of zero waste of resources, which commits King County to stop sending materials of value to Cedar Hills Regional Landfill by 2030. The grants are intended to help King County cities invest in, develop, and deliver on projects that help create a more circular economy, where waste is minimized, materials are kept in use longer, and natural systems are regenerated. A list of project ideas is available on the online platform. A. Focus areas The success of Re+ relies on both upstream prevention and downstream recycling actions, while also reducing inequities that persist in our County. Recognizing the need DocuSign Envelope ID: 68B0BC7E-5E67-4659-95B3-14EBC6A92A96 Re+ City Grant: Request for Application Guidelines Grant description | 6 for a whole system approach, the Re+ City Grant has three focus areas intended to support different approaches to create a more circular economy: 1. Prevention and Reuse: This includes projects that reduce materials used or purchased, create infrastructure to use reusable products, increase food rescue, and promote sharing or donating items. 2. Recycling: This includes projects that create or expand markets for recycled material, including organics, currently produced in the King County solid waste system. These grants could also support projects that improve the quality, increase the quantity, and/or grow the demand for utilizing recycled materials or increase recycling in residential or business communities. 3. Equity and Social Justice: This includes projects that benefit frontline communities. Frontline communities often experience the earliest and most acute impacts of climate change, face historical and current inequities, and have limited resources and/or capacity to adapt. B. Priority materials Projects that address the following materials will be awarded higher points in the grant scoring process (see evaluation criteria for details): • Plastic • Paper • Organics (includes food waste, yard waste, and wood) These materials are a priority to SWD because they represent over 75% of materials of value sent to Cedar Hills Regional Landfill. Applications can also include projects that address other materials but will likely need to demonstrate significant benefits to be awarded grant funding. C. Projects not funded by this program Projects that are not eligible for this grant program include but are not limited to: • Routine operation and maintenance costs • Collection events for recyclable materials • Collection of garbage or household hazardous waste items • Household hazardous waste education • Environmental clean-up of illegal activities (i.e. trash and litter cleanup) • Lobbying and attempts to influence legislation D. Minimum and maximum funding awards A total of $300,000 in grant funding is available for the 2023-24 biennium. Matching funds are not required for this grant opportunity.

Accrual reporting By the 5th working day of January 2024 and January 2025, cities must notify the Solid Waste Division of the amount of their total expenditures for work that has been completed in the previous year but for which a request for reimbursement has not yet been submitted. Solid Waste Division will use this information to accrue expenditures. D. Amendments Amendments to grant Interagency Agreements (IAAs) are unnecessary unless the city wishes to significantly change its scope of work. In general, a significant change would be one in which the city wishes to add or delete a task from its scope of work. Amendments will only be approved if the proposed change(s) is/are consistent with and/or achieves the goals stated in the scope and falls within the activities described in the scope. A minor change, such as moving dollars between tasks, would only require written notification, which may be submitted via e-mail. However, the city should contact the Solid Waste Division when considering changes to their scopes to determine if an amendment is needed.
