ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES
DEPARTMENT
MEMORANDUM
DATE: October 18, 2018
TO: Ed President, Council President
Members of the Renton City Council
CC: Denis Law, Mayor
Robert Harrison, Chief Administrative Officer
Administrators
FROM: Jan Hawn, Administrative Services Administrator
SUBJECT: 2019-2020 Proposed Budget – Responses to Questions from October 15, 2018
The Committee of the Whole asked several questions which staff promised to respond to during the
meeting on October 15. Below are the responses to those questions.
Community Services
1. Are there other departments besides Community Services and the Police Deputy with a
Deputy?
No other departments currently have a Deputy Administrator. Public Works created a Deputy
Administrator in 2006 to attract top-talent with specialized, experienced skillset. In 2016 when
the Deputy Administrator position became vacant again, the position was adjusted back to a
Director position.
2. Please verify that there is enough money in the proposed budget to adequately cover the costs
of homeless encampment cleanups on a timely and regular basis.
Over the past two years, the City has spent $55,000 - $60,000 in professional services for
homeless encampment cleanup. The Parks and Trails Program has proposed $147,000 in both
2019 and 2020 for Contracted Services, which includes the costs for homeless encampment
cleanups. Based on historical budget and actual costs, the proposed budget should be more
than sufficient to maintain regular and timely encampment cleanups throughout 2019 and
2020.
City Attorney
3. Has the number of nuisance properties increased?
The cases in 2018 are trending only slightly higher over 2017 and 2016 (1,035 through
September 30, 2018 compared to 1,114 for 2017 and 1,294 in 2016), with the biggest increase
in shopping cart and vegetation cases. However, as mentioned on Monday, the increased
AGENDA ITEM #2. b)
workload for the City Attorney’s Office is related to the treating nuisance property cases as
criminal infractions beginning in 2017.
Human Resources & Risk Management
4. On page 3-85, what is driving the increase in personnel benefits from $10.3 million to $13.3
million in 2019 and $14.2 million in 2020?
The largest share of personnel benefits line item on page 3-85 is comprised of the City’s
Benefits Division budget ($11.9 million in 2019 and $12.8 million in 2020). This line item
includes the City’s self-insured medical plan. The increase in 2019 is due to higher than
expected benefit costs in 2018 for premiums and claims related to prescription, medical,
dental, and vision. Positions added during 2017-2018 Budget and the Proposed 2019-2020
Budget also contribute to the remaining $1.5 million difference.
