that the voter's party preference choice is completely private. In regards to the
reason for the change to the primary election ballot,Mr. Huennekens explained
that it was the result of lawsuits filed by the various political parties that argued
that the blanket primary violated their right of affiliation. Federal courts found
Washington's blanket primary to be unconstitutional; thus, a new primary law
was enacted that requires voters to indicate their party preference on the
election ballot.

Police Sergeant Mark Day reported that Renton has been pre-approved for a

10%, or$2,053. He stated that LLEBG funds have been used to fund the City's
Domestic Violence Victim Advocacy program since 1996, and the Renton
Domestic Violence Task Force again recommends using the funds for this
purpose.
Sergeant Day introduced Tina Harris,Domestic Violence Court Advocate, who
stated that the program has served approximately 560 victims. She explained
that the victims need food, shelter, transportation, interpreter services, safety
planning, assistance in court,and assistance and referrals to community-based
programs. Ms. Harris stressed the importance of the Domestic Violence Victim
Advocacy program, and urged its continued support.
In response to Councilman Law's inquiry, Sergeant Day stated that the LLEBG
funds have decreased over the years, while the calls for assistance have
increased. He pointed out that domestic-related calls for service represent
approximately one-third of the actual number of calls that require further
investigation.
Council President Persson noted that the General Fund picks up the rest of the
program cost, and he asked what the percentage increase of domestic-related
calls were from 2003 to 2004. Sergeant Day reported that there was a seven
percent increase in the reporting of domestic-related cases.

SUBJECT: Issue Paper—Local Law Enforcement Block Grant
ISSUE:
In June 2004,the City of Renton Police Department applied for and received pre-approval for a
Local Law Enforcement Block Grant(1 J EBG) awarded by the Department of Justice. The
grant amount was for$18,478. Acceptance of the grant requires the formation of an advisory
board to discuss proposed use of the funds prior to receipt of funds. It also mandates a public
hearing to allow for citizen input and comment. Lastly, a City contribution of$2,053 is required
to complete the process of grant acceptance.
BACKGROUND:
The City has participated in this program since 1996, using the funds for crime prevention and to
support legal advocacy services for victims of domestic violence. Cities have two years to
expend the funds after receiving the award. Previously, the Renton Domestic Violence Task
Force served as the advisory board to review the application and make non-binding
recommendations on the use of funds. Also, during the 2003 budget process, this position and
responsibility was transferred from Community Services to the Police Department.
RECOMMENDATION:
(1) Council authorizes Administration to accept Local Law Enforcement Block Grant
funding
(2) Re-affirm City's contribution of$2,053 (completed during 2004 budget process)
(3) Authorize scheduling of a public hearing for September 13, 2004

property tax levy rate has decreased over the past eight years from the legal
limit of$3.60 per$1,000 of Assessed Valuation, to$3.16 per$1,000 of
Assessed Valuation.
Continuing with revenues,Mayor Tanner explained that the 2004 sales tax
estimates remain conservative, and the City must be vigilant in monitoring State
actions that could impact sales tax collections. He recommended small
increases to boat launch fees, ball field lighting fees, and golf course greens
fees. Mayor Tanner reported that projections for other revenue sources do not
raise significant concerns, with the exception of electric utility and gambling
taxes. All other resources are expected to be at least equal to the City's original
2003 estimates.
In regards to the expenditures, the Mayor indicated that staff costs are the City's
greatest expenditure and total salary costs will increase by $1.9 million. He
noted that employees are reviewing ways to lower the ever-increasing health
care benefit costs, and are sharing in the increased costs. Mayor Tanner
reported that while the 2004 Budget has no new programs, it continues to meet
ever-changing needs. The Budget proposes that monies be dedicated towards
completing the City's wireless communications network, and it implements the
second year of a three-year installation of the Fire Department records
management system. The Budget also includes over$800,000 for capital
improvements to parks and facilities, and proposes $95,000 to develop a master
site plan for the 57-acre open space site known as Narco, located across the
river from the Community Center.
Mayor Tanner stated that he is proud of the solid foundation the City has laid
over the past eight years, such as its investments in the downtown core,
neighborhoods, street maintenance, fire stations, and parks. He indicated that
each year there will be new challenges, and he highlighted a few major
challenges as follows: Parks Maintenance Facility replacement, Boeing
property infrastructure improvements, Cedar River Trail expansion, Heather
Downs property development,North Highlands Community Center
replacement, ball field lighting expansion,and technological investments.
Although the region continues to be in a recession, Mayor Tanner expressed
confidence that Renton's revenues will grow to meet its needs. He concluded
by encouraging the Council and new Mayor to continue to be cautiously
optimistic, and indicated that he is looking forward to providing a smooth
transition of a City that is on the move and in sound financial condition.

SPECIAL PRESENTATION Mayor Tanner presented his proposed 2004 Budget to members of the City
AJLS: Mayor's Presentation of Council and Renton citizens. He stated that since 1996, Renton has developed
the 2004 Budget sustainable budgets, and the fund balances have been used to fund one-time
capital improvements. Mayor Tanner reviewed the many positive changes that
have occurred and are occurring in Renton, including the enhancements to the
downtown core such as the Piazza,Pavilion Building, City Center Parking
garage, IKEA Performing Arts Center, and Veterans Memorial Park. He noted
that all these improvements translated into setting a foundation, which the
private sector enhanced. Additionally, the Henry Moses Aquatic Center will be
completed by the end of the year.
Continuing, the Mayor highlighted the success of the Neighborhood Program.
With respect to The Boeing Company, he explained that Boeing has decreased
the amount of property it owns and leases in Renton, and the number of
employees who work in the City. However, due to Renton's successful
economic development program and its diversified economic base, the City is
now impacted less by Boeing business cycles. Over the past year,the City has
devoted an enormous amount of time planning for a large block of land owned
by Boeing, and he noted that Renton will need to invest in infrastructure in this
area to help aid its redevelopment.
The total proposed expenditures for 2004 are$145,700,500. In addition,
appropriate reserves will be set-aside for a total proposed 2004 Budget of
$147,093,300. Mayor Tanner noted that of this total, $65,990,600 will be used
for general governmental purposes. On the revenue side, he reviewed the
property taxes, which meet over 30 percent of the City's general government
needs. While the City is restricted from collecting more than a one percent
increase from the regular levy each year, it is allowed to receive property taxes
on new construction over the one percent limitation. This source of revenue is
surpassing all expectations this year. The Mayor pointed out that the general
November 3,2003 Renton City Council Minutes Page 390
advocacy is significant. In conclusion, he stated that the Renton Domestic
Violence Task Force Advisory Committee recommended that the LLEBG funds
continue to be used towards this victim advocacy program.
Public comment was invited. There being none, it was MOVED BY PARKER,

ADMINISTRATIVE Chief Administrative Officer Jay Covington reviewed a written administrative
REPORT report summarizing the City's recent progress towards goals and work
programs adopted as part of its business plan for 2003 and beyond. Items noted
included:
* Salmon are in the Cedar River and volunteer naturalists will be at the
Renton Public Library and Riverview Park on November 8. Boeing
employees restored the Living Together Along the Cedar River sign located
on the Library Bridge, which depicts the life cycle of the Sockeye salmon.
* In late winter or early spring, the Parks Maintenance Division will be
removing a number of Raywood Ash trees located on Park Ave. due to
severe leaning and severe main stem cracks that will split-out during wet
and windy weather. Letters were sent to affected residents. The trees not
replaced will have the tree pits concreted.
* A caucus of the Suburban Cities Association (SCA)met with King County
Executive Ron Sims on October 30, to discuss the proposal to charge
approximately$7 million annual rent to the Cedar Hills Landfill. This rent
money would be used to provide human services in King County. The SCA
caucus indicated its opposition to using this solid waste funding for
programs that have no connection with solid waste.
AUDIENCE COMMENT Ray Giometti, 323 Pelly Ave. N.,Renton, 98055, addressed the subject of the
Citizen Comment: Giometti - Boeing Renton site surplus property redevelopment. He stated that Boeing
Boeing Renton Site EIS wants the City to grant zoning that would allow big-box retail development on
both sides of Park Ave. N.; however, allowing this could impede future quality
development on the land between Park Ave. N. and Logan Ave. N. He
recommended that the City initially permit zoning for big-box development east
of Park Ave. N. only,thus allowing better land use opportunities for property
on the west side of Park Ave. N. Mr. Giometti cautioned that this is a complex
issue that will be discussed for years to come, and he encouraged Council not to
rush into making the decision to allow big-box retail on both sides of Park Ave.
N. this early in the stages of development.

LOCAL LAW ENFORCEMENT BLOCK GRANT FUNDING
DOMESTIC VIOLENCE VICTIM ADVOCACY
In August of 2003, The City of Renton applied for, and received, a Local
Law Enforcement Block Grant for Domestic Violence Victim Advocacy.
The amount of the Local Law Enforcement Block Grant was for $40,742
and required a city-match of approximately 10 percent, or $4,527.
Local Law Enforcement Block Grants have funded the City of Renton's
Domestic Violence Victim Advocacy program since 1996. Prior to 2003,
the program was administered through the Human Services Division of
Community Services. During 2003 budget deliberations, Mayor Tanner and
the Council chose to continue providing the program with grant funding and
transferred responsibility for managing this grant and the program to the
Police Department.
In April of 2003, a permanent Domestic Violence Advocate, Tina Harris,
was appointed. She actively assisted in 294 new domestic related cases
