specified in Attachment A, which is attached and incorporated herein and may
hereinafter be referred to as the "Work."

changes to the Work consisting of additions,deletions or modifications.Any such changes
to the Work shall be ordered by the City in writing and the Compensation shall be
equitably adjusted consistent with the compensation provided by this Agreement or as

3. Term:
A. Commencement. Public Defender shall commence full performance of the
Agreement starting on April 1, 2019. As of that date, Public Defender shall represent
all indigent defendants seeking counsel who have not been previously assigned to
another attorney, except as otherwise provided in the Work. Formal case

of such cases, or June 30, 2019.
AGENDA ITEM #5. b)
Agreement for Primary Public Defense Services with Valley Defenders,PLLC
ii. For cases assigned to the previous public defender that remain active on July
1, 2019,the previous public defender may seek leave from the court for Public
Defender to substitute, and Public Defender will accept such substitution
except as provided for in the Work (e.g. Public Defender is not required to
accept the substitution if doing so would violate the rules of professional
conduct).
C. End of Term. Unless terminated pursuant to Section 5, the term of this Agreement
shall run for five (5) years through March 2024. The Agreement may be extended by
written mutual agreement of the parties. After expiration of the term, as may be
extended, the City will stop appointing new clients under this Agreement. Public
Defender will continue to represent all clients appointed prior to expiration of the
term through the earlier of(i)completion of the appointed cases, (ii)three (3) months
after the City appoints a new primary public defender, or (iii) the court grants
withdrawal due to a conflict of interest or a failure to appear finding by the court at a
scheduled court date during the three (3) month period after the contract expires, or
iv)other rule of professional conduct that mandates withdrawal.All applicable terms
of this Agreement shall continue to apply to all Work performed after expiration of
the term, including but not limited to conformance with the Defense Standards while
representing clients appointed during the Term. Public Defender agrees to negotiate
in good faith a short term extension to the end of the term if the City is delayed in
reaching an agreement with a successor public defender.
4. Compensation:
A. Base Compensation.The City shall pay Public Defender Base Compensation according
to following schedule of monthly payments for its performance of the Work:
Year 1: Months 1-12: 63,750.00 per month.
Year 2: Months 13-24: 65,662.50 per month.
Year 3: Months 25-36: 67,632.38 per month.
Year 4: Months 27-48: 69,661.34 per month.
Year 5: Months 49-60: 71,751.19 per month.
Except as provided otherwise herein, the cost of all infrastructure, salaries,
administrative support and systems, legal research and criminal database
subscriptions, as well as standard overhead services necessary to perform the Work
are included in this base compensation. The increases for each year represent an
annual increase in Base Compensation of 3%.
The Base Compensation set forth in this subsection is intended to fully compensate
and prepay Public Defender for the completion of all new cases assigned within the
0
Page 2 of 14
AGENDA ITEM #5. b)
Agreement for Primary Public Defense Services with Valley Defenders,PLLC
month the compensation is earned. Because Base Compensation is a prepayment for
completion of cases, it shall not continue to be paid after the term of this contract
expires even though Public Defender will continue to represent clients appointed
prior to the term's expiration.
B. Adjustment to Base Compensation Due to Case Load. The Base Compensation
presumes Public Defender will be assigned up to 1,700 cases annually, in addition to
its provision of required limited representation services. For purposes of this
subsection, the projected number of cases excludes cases for which Public Defender
withdrawals prior to performing substantial services due to a conflict or other ground
for withdrawal. While not limited to the following, the parties agree that substantial
services are performed if Public Defender has prepared in advance and appeared for
the client at a hearing other than the initial arraignment, an investigation of the case
by Public Defender has begun, a motion has been made on behalf of the client, or if a
witness has been interviewed. Public Defender agrees to do a conflict check upon
intake and receipt of notice a client has been appointed and withdraw at a reasonable
time as required by the Rules of Professional Conduct before substantial services are
performed for the client.
The City and the Public Defender agree to negotiate prospective adjustments to the
Base Compensation if there is(or is reasonably anticipated to be)either(i)a significant
increase in the cases assigned, such that Public Defender would be required to hire
additional attorney staff to remain in compliance with the Defense Standards required
by the Work, or (ii) a significant decrease in the number of cases assigned, such that
Public Defender could reduce attorney staff and remain in compliance with the
Standards. At the request of either party, the Parties will periodically review case
assignment trends and any other matters needed to determine Agreement
compliance or necessary Agreement modifications.
Public Defender shall promptly notify the City when quarterly caseloads can
reasonably be anticipated to require use of secondary or conflict counsel to assure
that cases assigned to Public Defender remain within the limits adopted in this
Agreement and comply with state and local standards. Upon receipt of such
notification,the City will review the information provided and determine whether use
of secondary counsel is necessary. Public Defender will provide any supplemental
information reasonably requested by the City to make its determination.
C. Payments in Addition to Base Compensation. The City shall pay for the following case
expenses when reasonably incurred and approved by the Renton Municipal Court
from funds available for that purpose:

unreasonably withheld.
iii. Lay Witness Fees. Statutorily required lay witness fees and mileage incurred in
bringing defense witnesses to court, but not including salary or expenses of law
enforcement officers required to accompany incarcerated witnesses;

ATTACHMENT A
Primary Public Defense Services Scope of Work
Section 1. Duty of Representation
1.1 General Scope of Representation. Public Defender shall act as the City's primary public
defense law firm,except as specified herein or precluded by applicable law or professional
ethical standards, and provide indigent defense services to all indigent criminal
defendants charged by the City of Renton with misdemeanors and/or gross
misdemeanors and those individuals under the supervision of the Renton Municipal Court
whom the City is legally required to provide indigent legal defense services.
1.2 Representation of Defendants at Critical Stages. The Public Defender is required to
provide defense services at all critical stages of criminal proceedings, as such stages are
interpreted through applicable case law. This includes, but is not limited to,
representation of formally appointed clients from time of appointment through any
appeal stages and post-conviction review hearings. Accordingly, in addition to
representing clients who are formally assigned by the Renton Municipal Court, the Public
Defender will provide limited, but effective, representation to those who self-identify as
unable to retain a private attorney and request assistance of counsel during critical stages
of criminal proceedings prior to indigency screening by the Renton Municipal Court. This
limited representation may include, but is not limited to, advising defendants or suspects
who have been arrested or are under police investigation/interrogation, defendants in
custody awaiting arraignment, and defendants who are out of custody participating in an
arraignment hearing. Public Defender shall provide the Renton Police Department a
working phone number at which an attorney may be reached at all hours as necessary to
comply with the limited representation requirement. Public Defender's representation
of individuals prior to formal appointment shall not extend beyond indigency screening
unless the Renton Municipal Court formally appoints Public Defender to continue
representation. Public Defender shall advise all individuals, to whom it provides limited
representation, the nature of the limited representation consistent with applicable rules
of professional conduct.
1.3 Exceptions from Duty of Representation. Public Defender shall not be required to
represent indigent clients under the following circumstances:
1.3.1 Representation of that client would create a conflict of interest or other violation
of the rules of professional conduct, provided that withdrawal from
representation or denial or an appointment is approved by the court consistent
with applicable rules of professional conduct; or
Primary Public Defense Services
Attachment A—Scope of Work Page 1 of 6
AGENDA ITEM #5. b)
1.3.2 Public Defender and the City agree that the number of cases and/or amount of
Work assigned to Public Defender under this Agreement materially exceeds the
level of work or case load contemplated by the Parties and the City agrees that,
rather than adjusting Contractor's compensation, the client may be assigned to a
secondary/conflict public defender. If Public Defender wishes to invoke this
subsection, it shall provide a request to the City as soon as practically possible and
provide all documentation requested by the City to support Public Defender's
request.
Section 2. General Duties and Standards of Representation
2.1 Defense Standards. The Public Defender's primary and most fundamental responsibility
is to promote and protect the interest of the client. The Public Defender shall provide
effective representation to all clients in a professional, skilled manner and at all times
comply with the Washington State Supreme Court Standards for Indigent Defense
currently in place or as hereafter amended, the applicable Rules of Professional Conduct,
applicable court rules, the most current Washington State Bar Association Standards for
Indigent Defense Services approved by the Board of Governors, applicable standards
adopted by the City in this contract or by policy, resolution, or ordinance, and all case law
and applicable court rules defining the duties of counsel and the rights of defendants in
criminal cases, in particular the decision in Wilber v. Mt. Vernon, 989 F. Supp. 1122 (W.D.
2013) (collectively, "Defense Standards").
2.2 Attorney Case Loads. Each attorney providing services under this Agreement shall
maintain a case load which fully complies with the Defense Standards. This includes, but
is not limited to, offsetting the maximum number of cases each attorney may be assigned
by the amount of time such attorney spends representing private clients, providing
limited representation services (including those services required to be provided by
Section 1.2 above), or to account for the attorney's part time status. Unless separately
authorized by the City, or required by the Defense Standards, a non-weighted caseload
count shall be used.
For purposes of this Agreement, "case" is defined to have the same meaning as defined
in Standard 3.3 of CrRU 3.1 (Standards for Indigent Defense). Upon Public Defender's
assignment of a defendant by the Renton Municipal Court, Public Defender shall assign
an attorney to represent the defendant in the case. The assigned attorney shall sign, file,
and serve a notice of appearance with the court and City prosecutor's office.The assigned
attorney shall be responsible for establishing a relationship with the defendant consistent
with the Defense Standards. If it becomes necessary for another attorney to substitute
for the assigned attorney at any stage in the proceeding, Public Defender shall determine
consistent with the Defense Standards whether each attorney should count the case as a
Primary Public Defense Services
Attachment A—Scope of Work Page 2 of 6
AGENDA ITEM #5. b)
full case for purposes of calculating case load limits. Unless Public Defender withdraws
prior to performing substantial services for the defendant, at least one of the attorneys
providing services in the case shall count the case as a full case. If Public Defender
determines the other attorney(s) do not need to count the case as a full case, such
attorneys shall offset the maximum number of cases he/she may accept by the amount
of time spent on the case.
2.3 Public Defender's Specific Duties. Without limiting Public Defender's duty to comply with
all provisions of the Defense Standards, the Parties specifically recognize Public
Defender's obligation to perform the following specific duties consistent with the Defense
Standards:
2.3.1 Pay its Attorneys consistent with Standard One of the WSBA's Standards for
Indigent Defense Services;
2.3.2 Budget for, provide, and pay for adequate administrative services and facilities

adequate telephone and email services to ensure prompt responses to clients;
2.3.3 Provide an adequate number of support services staff and contracted service
providers to provide effective representation consistent with the Defense
Standards;
2.3.4 Provide or require regular training to all attorneys providing public defense
services under this Agreement consistent with Standard Nine of the WSBA's
Standards for Indigent Defense Services;
2.3.5 Provide supervision, monitoring, and evaluation of attorneys performing services
under this Agreement consistent with Standards Ten and Eleven of the WSBA's

the City with names and experience levels of all new attorneys providing services
consistent with Standard Twelve of the WSBA's Standards for Indigent Defense
Services;
2.3.7 Establish limits on the amount of private work Public Defender's attorneys can
accept consistent with Standard Thirteen of the WSBA's Standards for Indigent
Defense Services; and

number(s) of attorney(s) who can be reached 24 hours 7 days a week for critical
stage advice and be available to provide such advice as the needs for advise arise,
including non-business hours;
2.3.10 Actively communicate with clients, promptly review all discovery provided by the
City, research applicable legal issues, attempt to negotiate resolutions with City
prosecutors, and otherwise prepare for all hearings in advance so as to avoid
unnecessary continuances;
2.3.11 Meet with incarcerated clients awaiting trial and prioritize preparation for such
cases;
2.3.12 Attend, in person or through approved teleconference, all scheduled hearings for
all assigned cases, all arraignment calendars, and all jail calendars unless excused
by the court. Attorneys should arrive far enough in advance to be sufficiently
prepared and to meet with clients in advance of their hearings;
2.3.13 Attend meetings or roundtables with City representatives, including municipal
court and/or prosecution representatives, at their request to discuss potential
courtroom and other process improvements relating to Public Defender's
services or the operation of the Municipal Court in general;

by the City for information relating to its duty to monitor Public Defender's
performance of this Agreement;
2.3.15 Develop a method to receive and respond promptly to client complaints,
consistent with Standards Fifteen of the WSBA's Standards for Indigent Defense
Services; and
2.3.16 Maintain a system to screen for and avoid representation of clients that would
cause a conflict of interest in violation of applicable rules of professional conduct.

contact Public Defender and speak with an attorney with or without making an
appointment. Public Defender shall assign an attorney or combination of
attorneys regular office with the Renton City Hall at least four (4) hours per week

representatives, will attend meetings or roundtables with Public Defender

obligations:

INTRODUCTION
Our work will be completed at the City of Renton Community Center located at 1715
Maple Valley Hwy, Renton, WA 98057 t in the following /spaces:
• Banquet Room – 3-Way Divisible
• Dance Studio
• Classroom A
• Classroom B
• Classroom C
• Gym A/B
OVERVIEW
Based on the 8/21/2023 site walk, the following solutions are being provided to support
audio visual requirements in each space.
SCOPE
Banquet Hall – 3-Way Divisible Room
Display
The proposed solution will retain usage of the client’s current projector and wall
mounted electric screen in the near end room. The middle and far end rooms will have
86” wall mounted displays located on the wall above the coat closets.
Video
The system currently has a single HDMI wall plate in the nearest room to feed the
projector. The proposed AV solution is based on an audio -visual over internet protocol
(AVoIP) method of transporting audio/video/control on standard CAT6a network cabling.
This allows the current wall plate to be replaced with an AV network jack that allows

City of Renton
Community Center (AV Audiovisual System Upgrade
connection to an AVoIP encoder. The encoder can be located within the room as events
require and simply connected to the new AV plate via a standard CAT6a cable. This is
the only wall plate provided in the proposed scope of work (SOW), but if required
additional wall plates can be added in the future through the change order process.
In addition to the wired HDMI connection, the system will employ a wireless
presentation system (WPS) to allow users to connect their laptops, tablets, etc. to the
projector / displays using Miracast, Airplay and Chromecast. As currently requested, the
system will allow the users to display content from a single source to the projector and
either/both of the wall mounted displays. As in the AV wall plate, the ability to allow
separate content on each display, for when the air-walls are closed and supporting
separate events, is possible under a future SOW and will require additional hardware and
labor to implement.
Audio
The system currently has a number of wall and ceiling mounted speakers that will
be decommissioned and turned over to the client.
In the nearest room, a pair (2) of passive line array systems comprised of a full range and
LFE extension will be installed on either side of the projection screen. These provide the
necessary pattern control and “throw” to provide intelligible audio withi n the room when
the air-walls are open for events in all three rooms. While suitable for background music,
these systems are not intended for live music events.
The system will employ a new audio digital signal processor (DSP) to allow
equalization of the audio system based on the room’s acoustics. In order to provide the
required amplification for the new speakers, the system will also include a new audio
amplifier.
Currently the system has three (3) wireless microphone receivers located in a
closet off the far end room entry way. These systems are based on UHF frequencies and
are likely in a spectrum that is no longer allowed. The proposed solution includes the
replacement of these systems with a DECT based wireless mic system that operates in
an FCC allocated spectrum specifically for personal devices. The system is frequency
agile, meaning that like Wi-Fi the system will detect, and “hop” frequency channels based
on system requirements. This eliminates the need for the client to manually scan / set
frequencies based on interference. The system will include two (2) hand -held and one (1)
belt pack/lavalier transmitter and be installed in the closet where the current wireless mics
reside.
Control
The proposed system has increased functionality that supports the addition of a small
wall mounted touch controller that will reside in the Banquet room AV closet. Control
functions include:

• Projector on/off
• Display on/off
• Room combine
• Source selection
• Audio volume
o Program audio
o Microphone audio
Note: the current wall mounted projection screen is controlled via a 120V keyed wall
switch. This does not allow the AV system to control the screen. A low-voltage controller
can be added to the SOW through the change order process if desired by implementation
of additional hardware, installation wiring, and programming. As in the displays, the re -
location of 120V power is to be provided by the client.
AV Rack
The proposed system includes a small wall mounted rack to house the new
wireless microphone receivers and support hardware for the new AVoIP distribution
system. As this room works independent of the other rooms / systems in the facility,
locating the new system components at this location in the closet that currently holds the
wireless receivers has certain benefits that will be outlined prior to installation.
Dance Studio
Display
The proposed solution includes the installation of an 86” display on the wall
currently occupied by a white board that will be removed and patched as needed by the
client. The display will include service style mounts to allow the installation of AV support
hardware behind the display while allowing service access. Control of the display is via
the manufacturer provided remote control.
Video
The video system is a simplified solution to what is proposed for the Banquet Hall
while still providing both wired and wireless presentation capabilities. A wall mounted
HDMI connection will be located below the display.

Audio – Bluetooth
To support music in the room, a Bluetooth receiver that will be located next to the
HDMI wall plate is provisioned for audio from “bring your own devices” (BYOD) such as
phones, tablets, etc.
Audio – Speakers
To support music in the room, a series of six (6) pendent style ceiling speakers will

Audio
The gym currently has a pair (2) of horn speakers in conjunction with a single (1)
2-way box speaker mounted in each section of the gym. These are unsuitable and will
be decommissioned as a part of the upgrades.
The replacement is a pair (2) of passive line array systems comprised of a full
range and LFE extension that will be installed in the same locations, one (1) in each
section of the gym. These are supported by the installation of a new two (2) channel
audio amplifier in the lobby/office AV rack. The speakers can be driven individually or
together depending on the need to separate or combine the A/B sections of the gym.
The system will utilize the existing four (4) microphone wall jacks, two (2) per
section of the gym, to allow connection of a new single (1) channel hand-held wireless
microphone receiver that is the same as deployed in the Banquet Room.
A new audio DSP is installed in the lobby/office AV rack to allow equalization of the
audio system based on the room’s acoustics, with source selection, routing, and volume
control by means of a simple wall controller located in the lobby.

Every quarter and upon the termination or expiration of this Contract: As outlined in the 2024
Payment Table below, the Contractor shall submit actual expenditures for allowable expenses
from the previous quarter pursuant to services described in this Exhibit (Actual Expenditures)
as part of the BIP. These actual expenditures shall be transmitted in the form of a detailed
general ledger report from Contractor’s financial system, including a budget to actuals
reconciliation related to activities outlined in this Exhibit (General Ledger).
The BIP is due within ten (10) business days following the end of each payment period. The

yearly funding allocation as noted in the funding table in Section I., WORK STATEMENT,
unless otherwise approved by King County in writing.
The Contractor shall advise King County quarterly of any material changes in revenues from

payment to be made by the County (the Next Payment), then the Next Payment shall
be reduced by such difference.
4.If Actual Expenditures are (a) less than the Quarterly Aggregate Payment and (b) that
difference is more than the Next Payment, then the County shall be relieved from its
obligation to make the Next Payment, and may: (c) lower the amount of future
payments by the remaining difference (such as reducing, pausing or skipping payment)
and/or (d) require that the Contractor submit a plan stating how excess payments will
be applied to future program purposes as described in this Agreement (the plan must
be approved in writing by the County). The County, in its sole discretion, will determine
whether the Contractor’s actual reported expenditures are allowable. The County’s
decisions regarding how excess payments by the County will be treated under this
Section are final. The County reserves the right to recapture unspent funds.
5.If there is no Next Payment as a result of the expiration or termination of this Contract,

6.As mutually agreed to in writing by the parties, the aggregate amount of any and all
reduced or withheld Next Payments described in Subsections 3 and 4 above may be

Expenditures in excess of the Quarterly Aggregate Payment. Unless otherwise agreed
to by the parties, such reimbursement will be made with the Next Payment.

City Council Regular Meeting - 01 Apr 2024
SUBJECT/TITLE: Agreement with Moffat & Nichol for Springbrook Trail Boardwalk
Repairs Project
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Refer to Finance Committee
DEPARTMENT: Parks & Recreation Department - PPNR
STAFF CONTACT: Betsy Severtsen, Capital Projects Coordinator
EXT.: 6611
FISCAL IMPACT SUMMARY:
$141,971 from 001.000000.020.576.81.48.004 VANDALISM
SUMMARY OF ACTION:
The Springbrook Trail Boardwalk provides pedestrian access through the 110-acre Springbrook Creek Wetland
and Habitat Mitigation Bank. In 2023, approximately 100 linear feet of the boardwalk was destroyed by fire.
This damaged section of the boardwalk was demolished and removed; the original damage and/or demolition
may have disturbed existing footings making them unsuitable to use in rebuilding. As this project was caused
by arson, the funding source is 001.000000.020.576.81.48.004, which funds repairs due to vandalism.
The City solicited a proposal from Moffat & Nichol to provide professional services to support the rebuilding of
the boardwalk. Moffat & Nichol are familiar with this feature as they provided an assessment of the structure,
as well as other park bridges, in early 2023. Their services will include a site investigation and review of
existing documents, environmental services including State and Federal permitting, a geotechnical engineering
investigation to determine footing needs, and engineering design needed for implementation of the repair.
The PPNR project team is working closely with Public Works - Surface Water Utility staff to ensure the design,
permitting, and repair of this feature meet all requirements necessary to comply with the Springbrook Creek
Wetland and Habitat Mitigation Bank protections.

STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute a Professional Services Agreement with Moffat & Nichol in the
amount of $141,971 to provide engineering and permitting services to support the Springbrook Trail
Boardwalk Repairs Project.

payment under this Agreement for any future fiscal period, the City shall not be

Dear Ms. Severtsen:
Moffatt & Nichol (M&N) is pleased to present this fee proposal to the City of Renton (City) to provide Partial Boardwalk
Replacement Engineering services. The proposed scope of work is based on e-mail and phone correspondence with
the City of Renton and has been divided into the tasks below.
SCOPE OF WORK
The proposed scope of work consists of a one-day site investigation at the site of approximately 100-linear feet of fire

PURPOSE
Exhibit A
Scope of Work
Task Order 1
City of Renton Boardwalk Restoration
Exhibit A - Sub
Grette Associates, LLC (Grette) has prepared this scope of work for Moffatt & Nichol (M&N) to
provide support for the City of Renton’s Springbrook Trail Boardwalk Replacement Project.
The boardwalk is located at 800 SW 27th St. Between Oaksdale Ave. SW and Lind Ave. SW.
Based on the information provided, a portion of the existing boardwalk (approx. 100 linear feet),
which provides pedestrian access through the approximately 110-acre Springbrook Creek
Wetland and Habitat Mitigation Bank, was destroyed by an arson fire and the City would like to
replace it (in-kind) to reestablish access.
At the time of the preparation of this scope of work it is unknown if the existing boardwalk
footings are suitable to reuse. As such, Grette assumes that restoration of the boardwalk will
require full replacement and would require coordination with local, state, and federal agencies to
obtain the necessary environmental permits. This scope of work assumes the City will be
responsible for addressing SEPA.
SCOPE OF SERVICES
Task 100 – Wetland Delineation and Project Area Evaluation
Grette Associates will visit the project area and delineate the wetland boundary in the vicinity of
the damaged boardwalk. The delineation will be performed in accordance with the U.S. Army
Corps of Engineers (USACE) Federal Wetland Delineation Manual (1987) and the USACE’s
Regional Supplement to the Corps of Engineers Wetland Delineation Manual: Western
Mountains, Valleys, and Coast Region (Version 2.0) (2010). The wetland will be evaluated and
rated using Ecology’s Washington State Wetland Rating System for Western WA – 2014 Update:
Version 2 (Hruby and Yahnke 2023).
Surveying of boundary flags will be the responsibility of a separate contractor.
Task 100 Estimated Fee - $1,787.00
Task 200 – Critical Areas Report and Mitigation Plan
Grette Associates will prepare a critical areas report and mitigation plan based on the results of
the field delineation and project design information. This report will also address the
unavoidable wetland impacts associated with the proposed project and will be prepared
according to Chapter 3 of the City of Renton Municipal Code (RMC) and the current version of
Wetland Mitigation in Washington State Part 1: Agency Policies and Guidance prepared by
Ecology, USACE, and EPA. The report will also include a map showing the location of the
critical areas in relation to the project boundaries as well as a figure set showing the proposed
restoration actions and project information.
AGENDA ITEM #5. e)
TOTAL ESTIMATED FEE – $25,628.00
Exhibit A - Sub
Task 300 – Joint Aquatic Resources Permit Application
Grette Associates staff will prepare a Joint Aquatic Resources Permit Application (JARPA) for
submittal to local, state, and/or federal agencies. This task includes time for preparing the
document and responding to one (1) round of comment from the project engineer/design team.
This task assumes Grette Associates will be provided a detailed project description and the
required JARPA figure set.
Task 300 Estimated Fee - $3,505.00
Task 400 – Hydraulic Project Approval
Grette Associates will prepare the application for the WDFW’s Hydraulic Project Approval
(HPA). This application includes details about the proposed project as well as the aquatic
resources in the vicinity of the project. Staff will also coordinate with the Area Habitat Biologist
(as needed) in support of the application but does not include time for a site visit.
Task 400 Estimated Fee - $1,915.00
Task 500 – Biological Evaluation
In support of the USACE permit for work in Waters of the U.S., Grette Associates will prepare a
Biological Evaluation (BE) for the project, including an Essential Fish Habitat (EFH)
assessment, to evaluate the effects of the project on listed species and essential fish habitat. This
task assumes that Grette Associates will be provided a complete set of design figures,
construction narrative, and other supporting information needed to complete standard effects
analyses.
This task does not include post-submittal coordination with the USACE or the Services (NOAA
Fisheries and USFWS), or the development of any monitoring plans that may be required.
If it is determined during the initial coordination with the USACE that a No Effects Letter is
sufficient to address ESA and EFH rather than a BE, Grette will only charge time needed to
prepare the letter through this task.
Task 500 Estimated Fee - $6,795.00
Task 600 – Permit Application and Project Coordination
Grette Associates will coordinate with the USACE during review of the federal permit
application for the project. This task includes submittal of the appliable application materials for
the project, and subsequent coordination with the USACE project manager. This task assumes
that any pre-submittal coordination with the USACE will be virtual.
This task also includes time to coordinate with the project engineer regarding design
requirements and time to attend any virtual meetings requested by local, state, and/or federal
agencies as well as to provide any technical assistance during the permitting process.

INTRODUCTION AND PROJECT UNDERSTANDING
We look forward to continuing our working relationship with Moffat & Nichol and the City of Renton. We
understand that the Springbrook Trail Boardwalk for the City of Renton partially burned and that the City
wants to replace the burned section as quickly as practical. We understand the original boardwalk was
supported with Diamond Piers and that the City wants to replace the boardwalk with a similar foundation
system. Our geotechnical scope of services in support of this project will include the following.
SCOPE OF SERVICES
1. Review existing subsurface information including publicly available geologic maps, an October 2005
geotechnical report prepared by Hart Crowser and a design letter for Diamond Pier Foundations
prepared April 2007 by Creative Engineering Options.
2. Perform one brief site reconnaissance to observe current site conditions.
3. Provide our opinion on the suitability of Diamond Pier or similar small diameter driven pile systems for
foundation support.
4. Provide recommended soil parameters for use in design of Diamond Pier or similar driven pin-pile

SUBJECT/TITLE: Increased Bonus Pay for Lateral Officers
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Refer to Finance Committee
DEPARTMENT: Police Department
STAFF CONTACT: Jon Schuldt, Chief
EXT.: 7555
FISCAL IMPACT SUMMARY:
Increase the hiring bonus for lateral officers to a $20,000 payment upon hire date and a second $20,000
payment upon completion of their one-year probation.
SUMMARY OF ACTION:
The Department has two options for filling officer vacancies. One of them is to hire entry level officers and
send them to the academy. The other option is to hire experienced officers from within Washington or from
out of state. These experienced officers are called “Lateral Officers” and require a substantial less amount of
time to be deployed as a fully functional officer to solo patrol.
In the State of Washington, an entry level officer attends the Basic Law Enforcement Academy for eighteen
weeks upon initial hire date. The Department typically assigns a hire date four weeks prior to the start of the
academy. Once the candidate successfully completes the basic academy, they begin a two week post
academy training at the Department. The post-academy training is then followed by an additional eighteen
weeks of field training before the officer can be on his/her own. In a perfect scenario, it takes approximately
forty-two weeks upon the initial hire date until the officer is filling a position in patrol as a fully functional
officer.
The typical training required of a lateral officer consists of the two-week orientation followed by twelve to
eighteen weeks of field training. This allows us to deploy an officer within fourteen to twenty weeks upon hire
date.
As of today, the Department has:
Six unfilled commissioned officer positions;
Five entry level officers are currently in the academy, with three more pending to start employment is
scheduled to start in June.
The Department currently has a bonus program for lateral officers consisting of a $10,000 payment upon hire
date and a second $10,000 payment upon completion of their one-year probation.
I am proposing increasing the bonus to a $20,000 payment upon hire date and a second $20,000 payment
upon completion of their one-year probation. They would then be obligated to a 3-year contract with the
department, if they leave to another agency within those three years, they are responsible to pay back the
entirety of the payment. Our proposal is to use this as a temporary incentive through the end of the year, the
incentive would then revert back to the previous approved amount.
AGENDA ITEM #5. f)
The Department is saving at least twenty-two weeks of compensation by hiring a lateral officer in exchange for
$40,000. The yearly pay for an entry level officer (with benefits) is $140,000. Adjust that to a twenty-two-
week schedule and it equates to a savings of $59,200. The department will also save on registration fees paid
to CJTC for each student officer while at the academy, $5,000 per student. We would have a $25,000 savings,
while also getting an experienced officer. The $40,000 bonus would come from salary savings from unfilled
positions, a budget adjustment would not be necessary. By implementing this proposal, we are looking to
increase our applicant pool and allow us to deploy officers at a much faster rate.
This shall expire on December 31, 2024, and will revert back to the current incentives.
