and staff work group to guide the work of SKHHP staff in the coming year. Pursuant to the SKHHP Interlocal

SUBJECT: 2026 SKHHP Work Plan and Budget
ISSUE:
Should the South King Housing and Homelessness Partners (SKHHP) 2026 work plan and
budget be approved?
RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt a resolution approving the SKHHP 2026 work plan and budget.
BACKGROUND SUMMARY:
Every year, an annual work plan and budget is developed in collaboration with the SKHHP
Executive Board and staff work group to guide the work of SKHHP staff in the coming year.
Pursuant to the SKHHP Interlocal Agreement, each participating jurisdiction must approve
SKHHP’s annual budget and work plan. The 2026 Executive Board recommended work plan
was developed through a survey to the Executive Board on their priorities in January and an
interactive in-person discussion with the Executive Board in March. The 2026 work plan and
budget was adopted on May 16, 2025 at the Executive Board’s regularly scheduled meeting.
The 2026 work plan includes four goals with corresponding action items. Each action item
is prioritized as higher, medium, or lower priority. Indicators are included to measure
progress on the goals. The four goals, which are the same as 2025’s goal, include the
following:
1. Fund the expansion and preservation of affordable housing
2. Develop policies that expand and preserve affordable housing
3. Serve as an advocate for South King County
4. Manage operations and administration
The 2026 SKHHP operating budget totals $501,975, supporting two full-time staff, and
includes itemization of all categories of budgeted expenses and itemization of each
AGENDA ITEM #1. a)
jurisdiction’s contribution, including in-kind services. Operating revenues originate from
SKHHP member contributions. As discussed in 2024 with Council, contributions are
proposed to increase 15% annually for each member jurisdiction through 2026 as approved
by the Executive Board in July 2021 to work towards a balanced budget whereby SKHHP’s
revenues can more fully support budgeted expenditures. These projected member
contributions assume no additional staff would be added. Member contributions are based
on population size accordingly, and no members are moving into a new population tier in
2026:
Population tier
2023
Contribution
2024
Contribution
2025
Contribution
2026
Contribution
<10,000 $5,290 $6,084 $6,996 $8,045
10,001 – 35,000 $9,919 $11,407 $13,118 $15,086
35,001 – 65,000 $19,838 $22,814 $26,236 $30,171
65,000 – 100,000 $34,385 $39,543 $45,474 $52,295
100,000+ $44,965 $51,710 $59,466 $68,386
Salaries and benefits are proposed to increase by 0.3% in 2026. This is to align with actual
expenditures in this category. Interfund IT, which is the amount paid to SKHHP’s
administering agency (City of Auburn) for IT services, is proposed to increase by 14%.
Professional Services is proposed to increase by 46% ($26,000) due to an every other year
data update to the SKHHP Affordable Housing Inventory Dashboard ($18,000) and
anticipated higher rates for contracted services. Professional Services include Advisory
Board compensation (unchanged in 2026), contract attorney expenses ($30,000 in 2026
which is $5,000 more than 2025), data update to the SKHHP Affordable Housing Inventory
Dashboard ($18,000), third-party construction reports ($6,000), travel ($6,000),
professional development ($6,800), Housing Development Consortium member dues
($725), and an annual license fee ($20). The proposal includes aligning budgeted categories
with SKHHP’s administering agency. SKHHP continues to spend down the fund balance
from previous cost-savings to mitigate any additional increases to member contributions.
The 2026 Executive Board recommended operating budget includes $501,975 to be set-
aside in reserve sourced from interest earned primarily on the Housing Capital Fund
balance. This amount is the equivalent of 100% of SKHHP’s annual budgeted expenses as
discussed over three public meetings and adopted by the SKHHP Executive Board on May
16, 2025. Interest earned in 2024 on all SKHHP funds totaled $540,377. Interest earned in
2024 by jurisdiction to be set-aside in reserve with the remaining supporting the 2025
Housing Capital Fund funding round are as follows:

KING COUNTY -- -- --
TOTAL $501,975 $38,402 $540,377
To spend interest earnings requires the approval of each SKHHP member with allocated
earned interest based on their contributions. With the adoption of the 2026 SKHHP
operating budget which incorporates a portion of the interest earnings into an unrestricted
fund balance in reserve, the City Council is providing authorization for SKHHP to use those
funds towards the unrestricted fund balance in reserve. These funds will assist in future
years should there be an economic recession and members choose to pause an increase in
dues or other unexpected expense arises. The remaining amount will go towards the 2025
funding round of the Housing Capital Fund and Council will provide approval to use those
funds during the annual concurrence process in early 2026.
Recommendation:
Staff recommends approval of Resolution xx adopting the 2026 SKHHP work plan and
budget. This recommendation is based on the following:
1. The 2026 SKHHP work plan and budget is consistent with the Interlocal Agreement
and relevant subsequent Companion Agreements between Auburn, Burien,
Covington, Des Moines, Federal Way, Kent, Maple Valley, Normandy Park, Renton,
SeaTac, Tukwila, and King County.
2. The 2026 SKHHP work plan and budget incorporates the feedback and priorities of
the SKHHP Executive Board made up of representatives of each participating
jurisdiction.
