A+GENDA ITEM #6, a)
SPECIAL PRESENTATION
Recognition of Chaplain Allan Falmar-Chief Peterson and Chief Milasevich recagnized the
Fire and Police Chaplain Allan Folmar far his contributions ta the community by being a
Chaplain at times of need within the City.Chaplain Folmer will be retiring in January.
PUBLIC HEARIIUG
Ballat Measure Regarding a Proposed Regional Fire Authority-This being the date set and
proper notices having been posted and published in accordance with 1oca1 and 5tate Laws,
Mayar�aw apened the public hearing to cansider adopting a resolution ta place a propasitian
before the vaters at the April 2016 election seeking authorization for creating a Regiona!Fire
Authority(RFA)to serve the City af Renton and Fire District No. 25{FD#25).
Chief Peterson reparted on why the City of Renton Fire& Emergency Services Department
and FD#25 believe establishing an RFA wauld be the best course of actian to improve fire and
emergency services for residents within the service area. He further explained that due to
increasing demands, if bath entities do not receive additianal funding their ability to provide
timely emergency services will be compromised.
Administrative Services Administrator Iwen Wang further explained the basic funding
mechanism for the RFA by reviewing the histary of the City's cast reduction during the
recession and the limited resources the City was faced during a time of substantial City
growth.She proposed the following actions to bridge the gap in funding:
• Furkher cut General Fund services to preserve as much public safety service as
possible.
• Implement a Citywide property tax increase(requires a lid-lift levy).
• Implement a special levy to fund a new fire station.
+ Ask voters to implement a"Fire Benefit Charge."'
• Place a joint RFA ballot measure at the April 2016 election.
+ Take no action.
Chief Peterson explained that the Renton Fire& Emergency Services Depar#ment sustained
funding services through the recession by reducing staffing, consolidating training functions,
reducing the number of annual inspections, and eliminating public outreach and preventive
programs. He further outlined the widening gap in Fire and Emergency Service delivery.
Fpllowing this summary,Chief Peterson described how implementing an RFA would benefit
the residents in Renton and the FD#25 area. Some benefits include the addition af a new fire
station in the Kennydale neighborhood,ensuring funding cauld meet population growth,
restaring and enhancing service levels, irnproving response times, and removing financial
stressors on ather City services. He further relayed that if the RFA is not passed respanse
times wi{I cantinue ta degrade,there wi11 not be a new fire station in the Kenydale area,there
will be na praactive programs,frequency af annual fire inspections will diminish, and the
department will face an increasingiy difficult time meeting the needs af the community.
Ms.Wang concluded the presentatian with a detailed explanatian of what the casts wi{I laok
like for vaters if the RFA is approved.She alsa noted that cost impacts can be calculated by
using the cost calculator on the proposed RFA website at rentonrfa.org.
DECEMBER 14,2015 REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES 2

ADMINISTRATIVE REPORT
Chief Administrative Officer Jay Covington reviewed a written administrative report
summarizing the City's recent progress towards goals and work programs adopted as part of
its business plan for 2015 and beyond. Items noted were:
• Preventative street maintenance will continue to impact traffic and result in occasional
street closures.
• Inclement weather response reminder was provided by the Public Works
Department to remind residents to help prevent local residential street flooding
by monitoring catch basins and keep them clear of leaves and other debris. Street
sweepers are dispatched daily to clean up debris along major arterials. Also,
during snow and ice events,the department sanders and snow plows are
dispatched to keep major arterials drivable. It is imperative that motorists do not
park or abandon their vehicles within any portion of the traffic lanes. Abandoned
vehicles impair snow and ice removal and impact response of emergency vehicles.

ISSUE
Should the City enter into an Interlocal Cooperative Agreement to purchase Regional Aerial
Photographs captured in March 2015?
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends approving the Interlocal Cooperative Agreement to purchase Regional Aerial
Photographs captured in March 2015 with King County and regional partners for an amount not
to exceed $16,000 and authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to sign the agreement.
BACKGROUND
In March of 2015 the City began coordination with King County and regional partners for
acquisition of aerial photography. The last acquisition by the City was in 2012 through similar
participation in a regional partnered acquisition. The 2012 project was recognized regionally as

2015 Funding Agreement—Renton—11/24/2015 Page 5 of 42
AGENDA ITEM #6, c)
2. PROJECT DESCRIPTI4N
The Project is an effort to bring together regional partners in and around King, Snohomish, Kitsap and
northern Pierce Counties in order to acquire high-resolution aerial imagery and related GIS data for
Participants at a significantly reduced cost. Further, by obtaining all imagery and related data from a
single vendor during a single acquisition window, the project will create a single common, regional data
baseline for future collaborative, planning, disaster response, and economic development purposes,
etc.
3. GEOGRAPHIC SCOPE
This project encompasses an area of western Washington spanning approximately 3,876 square miles.
Participating entities include approximately 100 cities, counties, tribes, state/federal agencies, first
responders, utility districts and private businesses, all participating in this regional cost-sharing GIS
collaboration. Geographically the Project area includes all or portions of King, Snohomish, Kitsap and
Pierce Counties.
4. GOALS AND ANTICIPATED BENEFITS
The following goals and benefits are anticipated for the project:
4.1. Cost Savings
By leveraging regional collaboration, the Project expects to have a better overall negotiating
strength with vendors due to the Project area's overall budget, geographic size and number of
Participants. Also, duplicative costs (costs where 2 or more Participants previously would have
paid full vendor pricing for the same tile, expense or deliverable) are expected to be
substantially reduced. Further, in such a case where Area of Interest (AOI) overlaps exist
between 2 or more Participants, under the Project's Cost Allocation Model (CAM), only a
proportional fraction of the normal vendor cost of an overlapping tile will be borne by each
Participant requesting that tile—thus creating further individual Participant savings. Through the
stronger negotiating position with vendors, the elimination of duplicative costs and through the
cost sharing mechanisms employed when possible, a significant reduction is expected in each
Participant's overall cost for obtaining such imagery and associated supplemental data.
4.2. Data Sharing
Additionally, through this Project all Participants will have obtained imagery and related data
from the same source, during the same overall 2015 Acquisition Window. Because of this,
Participants across the region will be able to more easily share data with other Participants.
5. PROJECT DELIVERABLES
The Project is being undertaken to obtain the following deliverables:
2015 Funding Agreement—Renton— 11/24/2015 Page 6 of 42
A GENDA 1 TEM #6, c)
5.1. Standard Imagery and Related Deliverables
The primary Project goal is to obtain Standard Imagery deliverables. This refers to high-
resolution orthoimagery (may include both natural color and near-infrared), as well as stereo
imagery models and supporting data.
Note: Project costs for Standard Imagery deliverables listed above will be shared proportionally
where two or more Participants' Areas of Interest (AOIs) overlap, in turn reducing each
ParticipanYs financial commitment for these deliverables.
5.2. Supplemental Data Deliverables
The secondary Project goal is to obtain the ancillary data referred to herein as the Supplemental
Deliverables. Supplemental Deliverables include such items as data related to impervious
surface identification and categorization (transportation impervious, structure rooflines, other
impervious surfaces) as well as detailed contours and digital terrain models (DTM.) These
deliverables will be derived from the same industry best practices as used in creating the
Standard Imagery and Related Deliverables.
Note: Project costs for the optional Supplemental Deliverables will be borne solely by those
Participants choosing these optional products.
6. VENDORS TO BE HIRED
The following external resources are to be hired, at a minimum, to support successful execution of the
Project and to help minimize any risks related to the successful delivery of project deliverables:
6.1. Primary Vendor(aka Acquisition Vendor)
One vendor, hereafter described as the Primary Vendor, will be responsible for the aerial
imagery acquisition and related data, as well as production processing and delivery of
orthoimagery and related products. This vendor also will be responsible for the optional
Supplemental Data processing and development into final deliverables.
6.2. Secondary Vendor(aka QA/QC Vendor)
One vendor hereafter referred to as the Secondary Vendor, shall hold primary responsibility for
performing quality assurance (QA) tasks, including quality control (QC) and related quality
validation of the submitted imagery, data and supplemental deliverables submitted by the
Primary Vendor. The quality control checks shall be performed by this vendor using a random or
similar sampling method. These efforts will be supported by and coordinated with any
supplemental testing performed by the Participant organizations.
7. PR(JJECT PROCESSES AND PROCEDURES
The following section outlines the processes and procedures to be followed by the Project for selection
of the relevant vendors, definition of participant Areas of Interest (AOIs), date estimation, project
execution, tracking of defects, etc.:
2015 Funding Agreement-Renton- 11/24/2015 Page 7 of 42
AGENDA ITEM #6. c)
7.1. Pre-Vendor Selection Documentation of Requirements and Specifications
The Project will develop a documented scope, technical specifications, and detailed descriptions
of vendor deliverables. This information will appear in the Request for Proposal (RFP)
documents to be published to perspective vendors as part of the vendor selection process.
7.2. Requirements and Specification Explicitly Included in Vendor Contracts
The Project will include the documented scope, technical specifications, and detailed task
descriptions appearing in the RFP, or amended during vendor negotiations, within the
Statement of Work (SOV� of any subsequent contract.
7.3. RFP Process to be Utilized
Based upon 2012 participant feedback and lessons learned, this Project will utilize a Request
for Proposal (RFP) process rather than the previously-used Invitation to Bid (ITB) process. This
procedural change allows evaluation and selection of vendors based on qualifications rather
than strictly on pricing. It is believed that this should improve the quality of deliverables; reduce
schedule risk; reduce the overall project risk; etc. as compared to the 2012 Project.
Once the RFPs are published and vendor responses received, the vendor responses will be
reviewed and scored. Scoring criteria include a number of factors such as:
7.3.1. Ability to Deliver
Vendor's ability to deliver on the full project scope as defined in the RFP, Technical
Specs, etc.
7.3.2. Track Record
Industry track record with other large-scaled projects such as this Project.
7.3.3. References
References relevant to the project work to be done, with particular weight placed on
projects of similar scope, design, requirements, etc.
7.3.4. Available Resources
Available staffing, materials and equipment (including such items as aircraft, sensors,
staff, software, detailed sensor capabilities, etc.)
7.3.5. Agreeability to the proposed flight window
Availability for and agreeability to the requested flight window.
7.3.6. Experience level
Amount of organization and staff industry experience (both lead and line staff.)
7.3.7. Expertise
Perceived and documented expertise in this area.
7.3.8. Experience with other large collaborative projects
Experience with projects of similar size, number of participants and scope.
7.3.9. Overall pricing and value.
Pricing and perceived overall value will also play a role, albeit a smaller factor than in
the 2012 projecYs "Invitation to Bid" process.
2015 Funding Agreement—Renton— 11/24/2015 Page 8 of 42
AGENDA ITEM #6, c)
7.4. Vendor Selection and Negotiations
Once ranked, negotiations with the top two to three vendors will follow, with the goal of leading
to a successful contract(s) between King County (representing the Participants as the Project
Fiscal Agent) and both the Primary (Acquisition) Vendor and Secondary (QA/QC) Vendors.
7.5. Shared QA Process for the Evaluation of All Deliverable Types
Based upon the issues encountered in the 2012 effort, the 2015 project will instead utilize the
services of a competent, third-party vendor to take lead responsibility for sample-based testing
of all primary photogrammetric data elements (adequacy of survey control network, raw imagery
capture, analytical aero-triangulation solution, etc.) and standard imagery deliverables. Due to
cost, it was deemed that this vendor would not test every image but would test a representative
sampling of all deliverable types and general areas, with the test sample percentage rate
dynamically being determined throughout the project life cycles according to the error rate
detected. The Secondary Vendor will be responsible for testing and reporting the Primary
Vendor's Project deliverables against contract specifications. Additionally, where feasible, they
will assist in evaluating the key processes to be used by the Primary (Acquisition) Vendor during
the performance of their services, also to be performed using a general sample test rate
approach.
7.6. Participant's Imagery AOI by Tile Definitions
The Area of Interest (AOI) for each Participant is defined according to a predefined grid, by full
3000 x 3000-foot grid cells (tiles) represented by the shape file "idxp3000_2015.shp." This grid
applies uniformly to all Participants. These tiles are intended to be used for determining each
Participant's AOI and overlap calculations with other entities. However, all Project unit costs will
be stated as dollars per square mile. Each tile is approximately one-third square mile. The exact
conversion is 1 tile = 0.32238 square mile.
7.7. Participant Eligibility for Imagery Tiles
All Project Participants are eligible to identify as their AOI any tiles within the projecYs defined
subareas. At a minimum, all Participants will receive for their identified AOIs, primary
photogrammetric data elements (survey control network, raw imagery, analytical aero-
triangulation solution, etc.) and further eligible to include in their AOI any and all types of
Supplementary Deliverables as defined in the vendor Scope of Work(SOV� and included in the
vendor contract.
7.8. Smoothing of AOI Definitions
Prior to completion of flight planning, at the discretion of the TWG Chair, some adjustments may
be made to a Participant's proposed AOI if some 'smoothing' is required to adjust the edge of a
resolution area. For example, small gaps and irregular borders could be eliminated in order to
present a logical, cost-effective flying pattern. All resolution areas will be contiguous blocks
wherever possible and will be of sufficient size and appropriate geometry to meet practical
industry acquisition standards.
7.9. AOI Confirmation Required in Writing Prior to Signing Funding Agreement
Prior to a Participant's signing of the Funding Agreement, the Participant will be requi�ed to
confirm acceptance of their AOI in writing. If the party signs and submits the Funding Agreement
2015 Funding Agreement—Renton— 11/24/2015 Page 9 of 42
AGENDA ITEM #6, c)
without first sending documented confirmation of their defined AOI, their signature of the
Funding Agreement shall be deemed as inclusive of their formal acceptance of their previously
defined or described draft AOI as final. If such a party has not previously submitted a draft AOI
prior to the deadline for the signing of the Funding Agreement, their subsequent imagery
request shall need to be finalized at the earliest possible time, no later than 2 business days
after the deadline for signing the Funding Agreement(Note: no late participants are allowed as
part of the 2015 project—thus there is no option as occurred in 2012 for participants to be
treated as "Late Participants."
7.10.AOI Adjustments Following the Start of the Flight Window
After the beginning of final flight planning, no increase in a Participant's AOI will be allowed if it
would change any Project Area resolution boundary.
Note: Participants may increase their AOI at any time during the Project so long as the change
does not modify any defined resolution boundaries.
7.11. No AOI Reduction Following Signature of the Funding Agreement
Once a Participant signs this Funding Agreement, no reduction in its AOI is allowed. Following
their Funding Agreement contract signature, a Participant may opt out of receiving any given
deliverable, but is still responsible for the cost of the deliverable.
7.12. Other Deliverables: Change Orders not Outlined Above
It shall be noted that any Change Orders which are not outlined above and which are issued on
behalf of a sole Participant or on behalf of a group of Participants not representing the whole of
all Participants, shall be priced separately within the respective Change Orders and all
associated costs specific to such Change Orders shall be borne only by the requesting
Participant or Participants.
7.13. Milestone Dates—General Provisions
All project milestone dates shall not be formalized until the acceptance by the PSG of the
Master Project Plan baselining. The baselined Master Project Plan shall encompass integration
and mutual formal acceptance and sign off by all vendors and the County (as Fiscal Agent for
the Project) of the final integration of the individual respective vendor project plans into the
County project plan, to create the baselined 2015 Regional Aerials Master Project Plan. Such
formalized dates shall be also subject to project re-baselining, pursuant to formal approvals by
the Project Steering Committee and Project Sponsor.
7.14. Milestone Dates—Purposes within this Agreement
Milestone dates will be used as described below as part of the cost calculations for all
Participants. If any milestone date ambiguity exists, the formal determination of the milestone
date in question shall, at the request of any Participant, be determined by a simple majority vote
of the PSG (or Project Steering Group.).
7.15. One Resolution per Tile
The Primary Vendor will create imagery of only one resolution for any given tile. Each tile shall
be defined as 0.25-foot, 0.50-foot or 1.00-foot resolution imagery. The Primary Vendor will fly
2015 Funding Agreement—Renton— 11/24/2015 Page 10 of 42
AGENDA ITEM #6. c)
and create orthoimagery at that resolution to conform to boundaries provided by King County.
7.16. Determination of Resolution for a Given Tile
The resolution assigned to a tile is the highest resolution imagery requested by any Participant
whose AOI includes that tile. All Participants agree to a cost allocation for each tile based on the
highest resolution requested for that tile.
SPECIAL NOTE: It is critical that Participants are aware of edge effects along resolution
boundaries and plan their processes for AOI definition, testing and acceptance criteria
accordingly.
7.17. Determination of Deliverables—Geographic Scope
Participants will receive deliverables for solely those tiles included in their defined AOI and/or
Supplemental Deliverables request, and as fully paid for according per this Funding Agreement.
7.18. Payment adjustments
Every reasonable effort will be made by the Project to bill every invoice accurately and
completely to the best of its ability. It should be noted however, given the number of Participants
in this cost-sharing regional collaboration, that late-breaking decisions regarding changes in
participation by one or more parties may ultimately result in adjustments (usually very minor)to
the final cost of other Participants. The Project team agrees to make every reasonable attempt
to mitigate the risk of this happening; however it asks that Participants be flexible should minor,
last-minute changes occur in either the Project ParticipanYs list or in AOI definitions.

As the QA vendor may be contracted according to a sliding scale, to be adjusted in accordance
with the error detection rate and related PSG approvals, the final Participant pricing may not be
known until Project completion. However, since a maximum expense cap would be established
in such a QA pricing scenario, the maximum QA inspection rate is not anticipated to exceed the
pricing estimates provided at the time of 2015 Participant invoicing.
10.4. Signature Indicates Agreement to Pricing
By executing the "2015 Regional Aerials Agreement Acceptance" section of this Funding
Agreement, each Participant agrees to pay its required monetary contribution, as stated in the

Addendum A
2015 Regional Aerials Project Cost Allocation Model - Overview
Two Tvpes of Deliverables
There are 2 types of deliverable components for the 2015 Regional Aerials Project Cost Allocation
Model, as follows:
Component 1 deliverables are the Imagery and its supporting deliverables. This component affects all
Participants.
Component 2 deliverables are the Supplemental Data deliverables (digital terrain model (DTM),
contours, impervious surface layers and others.) This component affects the costs for only those
Participants who decide to also request these optional products.
The costs for both deliverable component types listed above may be affected by cost-sharing, either
directly or indirectly. Cost sharing is determined by overlaps in each Participant's Area of Interest (AOI)
and other factors. The cost-sharing impact is generally much more significant for the imagery
component than for the Supplemental Data component due to the way that AOIs and deliverable
footprints are defined for each, the unique specifications and requirements typically provided for each
Supplemental Data Change Order; and the fact that few Participants request the optional Supplemental
Data deliverables.
Six Proiect Staqes Defined
The Project will be executed in six stages. While these stages in some cases may have some degree of
overlap based on resources and general vendor resources, they are organized in this Agreement as
follows:
Stage 1 —Planning and Preparation
Stage 1 consists of all preparatory Project work related to the initial flight window as well as high level
planning for all later stages. Stage 1 deliverables are required for the development and delivery of all
Standard Imagery and Related Data being requested by all Participants and as such, Stage 1 costs
shall be borne by all Participants based in proportion to their AOI and any related cost sharing factors.
Stage 2— Imagery and Data Acquisition — Flights
Stage 2 begins with the start of the flight window and includes the full flight window as well as the post-
flight-window Preliminary Deliverables work, QA validation and any other required re-work related
specifically to "Component 1: Imagery and Related Deliverables. Stage 2 deliverables are required for
the development and delivery of all Standard Imagery and Related Data being requested by all
Participants and as such, Stage 2 costs shall be borne by all Participants based in proportion to their
AOI and any related cost sharing factors.
Stage 3—Development, QC and Delivery of all Standard Deliverables
Stage 3 consists of the analytical aero-triangulation and other production processing work which shall
be done by the vendor to provide all standard imagery and related deliverables. Stage 3 deliverables
2015 Funding Agreement—Renton—11/24/2015 Page 33 of 42
AGENDA ITEM #6, c)
are required for the development and delivery of all Standard Imagery and Related Data being
requested by all Participants and as such, Stage 3 costs shall be borne by all Participants based in
proportion to their AOI and any related cost sharing factors.
Stage 4—Supplemental Data—New Data (not built upon an existing baseline)
Stage 4 consists of the period in which work is being done for any Participants related to New
Supplemental Data and Deliverables. All such Stage 4 Supplemental Data work shall be outlined in
Participant-specific Change Orders, with each Change Order having its own pricing. As such, the costs
related to work in this stage shall be borne by each Participant requesting such work.
Stage 5—Supplemental Data Built Upon an Existing Baseline; DTM and Contours
Stage 5 consists of the period in which work is being performed related to deliverables for
Supplemental Data built upon an existing baseline. This stage also shall include all work related to DTM
and contours. All such Stage 5 Supplemental Data work shall be outlined in Participant-specific Change
Orders, with each Change Order having its own pricing. As such, the costs related to work in this stage
shall be borne by each Participant requesting such work. At the discretion of the County (as Project
Fiscal Agent), the Acquisition and QA vendors, the work in Stage 5 may be done concurrently with
Stage 4.
Stage 6—Project Closure
Stage 6 shall consist of all project closure activities, including such work by the County and vendors to
ensure all final deliverables have been received; final data archived and indexed for future access;
vendor invoices processed; post-project"Lessons Learned" and similar analyses completed; and final
status reporting to all Participants done.
Costs, Milestones, Continqencies and Commitment Dates for Particiaation
Total Cost
As you will see in the sections below, there are a number of more detailed scenarios and factors such
as type of data; whether the work is "new work" or"based on previous baseline"; etc. which can
influence a Participant's final cost. However, the following general principles, which apply to all
Participants, are outlined below to provide clarity on the overall milestones, required steps, deliverables
and financial commitment that apply to the majority of Participants.
Please note that a Participant's Total Project Cost will be the total of all Shared Costs for all phases,
plus the specific costs related to:
Component 1 (the Imagery and Related Deliverables) section plus, where applicable,
Component 2 (the Supplemental Data and Deliverables.)
Note: It is expected that not all Participants will choose to request Component 2: Supplemental Data
Deliverables and some Participants therefore may have no costs associated with Component 2.
2015 Funding Agreement—Renton—11/24/2015 Page 34 of 42
AGENDA 1TEM #6, c)
General Pricinq Principles:
The following general cost principles shall be applied within the context of this regional project:
Catculation of Shared Costs
All Shared Costs Calculated by Phase
All shared costs will be calculated by Project stage as defined above and as applicable to only those
Participants to whom each stage applies.
"Stage Multiplier" Calculation
For the purposes of cost calculations of individual Participants, each stage shall have a proportional
"Stage Multiplier" percentage calculation applied to it, determined by the amount of calendar time spent
on that phase as a percentage of the overall projected project schedule. This ratio will then be used to
calculate costing factor related to each of the phases. These 3 percentages shall total 100% of the
overall project schedule (first decimal precision.)
"Participant Proportional Ratio"
For the purposes of cost calculations of individual Participants, each Participant will have a proportional
"Participant Proportional Ratio by Stage" determined. This value shall be set per stage.
Stages 1 and 2 Costing
For Stages 1 and 2 the Participant Proportional Ratio shall be set according to tiles defined in each
Participant's AOI, with shared tiles being divided according to the number of Participants desiring the
same deliverable for that tile.
Stage 3 Costing
Stage 3 costing is measured by the AOI square mileage.
Stage 4, "New Work" Only Costing
The only cost sharing for AOIs for Supplemental Data and Deliverables (the deliverables in Stage 4) is
related to identical deliverables for specifically overlapping square mileage as defined in 2 or more
parties' AOIs and only when that work is not based upon any existing baseline data.
Stage 5 "Build Upon an Existing Baseline" Costing
For Stage 2 Supplemental Deliverables and Data which are based upon an existing baseline, there are
no cost sharing methods employed due to the nature of the work.
Stage 6 Project Close Out Costing
Stage 6 costs apply to all Participants and as such, Stage 6 costs will be borne identically to Stages 1
and 2, according to tiles defined in each Participant's AOI, with shared tiles being divided according to
the number of Participants desiring the same deliverable for that tile.
NOTE: Only stages applicable to each Participant will be invoiced. Participants will only be invoiced for
those stages in which they have requested relevant deliverables.
2015 Funding Agreement-Renton- 11/24/2015 Page 35 of 42
AGENDA ITEM #6. c)
Shared Cost Determination
For each Shared Cost, the value is determined by:
1. Stage Multiplier(defined above) for each applicable phase, multiplied by
2. Participant Proportion by Stage
3. The sum of all Project costs for that Shared Cost category
Note: the final Shared cost is the sum of the individual Shared Cost categories for all applicable stages,
according to the deliverables chosen by the Participant.
Shared Cost Cateaories
Shared Cost Categories include:
1. PM Costs
PM costs include all PM staffing costs associated with performing the PM duties outlined earlier in
this Agreement
2. Shared Primary Vendor Costs
3. Shared Secondary Vendor Costs
4. Supplemental Staffing Costs (as stated in Section III, to include such support as orthophotographic
project consultant, GIS expert, project administrator or other supplemental staff, if contracted or
otherwise hired for a portion or the duration of the Project, as required to meet the Project goals.)
Any such staff must be authorized by the PSG and the Project Sponsor.
Other Potential Shared Costs
Water-based Tiles (Puget Sound)
Tiles within Puget Sound, not included in any Participant's AOI, will be acquired as standard
orthoimagery deliverables to ensure continuity of data. This additional cost will, similar to PM costs, QA
costs, etc., be added as overhead proportionally to each Participant's imagery AOI costing.
Tiles Including Partial Water within a Requested AOI
Water areas are treated the same as land areas. There is no discount for a Participant if its AOI
includes tiles or a shape file definition that contains water areas, regardless of what percent is water.
Partial Tiles Not Allowed
Partial tiles are not allowed in the definition of a Participant's AOI for Imagery and Related Deliverables.
Tiles Which Have Existing Supporting Ground Control Data
All tiles, regardless of any pre-existing DEM and Control (GCP), are assigned the same deliverable and
overhead costs. There is no mitigation or weighting due to variation in the extent or quality of supporting
data.
2015 Funding Agreement—Renton— 11/24/2015 Page 36 of 42
AGENDA ITEM #6, c)
lndividual Participant Costs
The following items are costs which would be borne by the specific Participant requesting such work:
1. Change Order Costs-Acquisition and QA Vendor Expenses
All costs for any third-party assistance which has been contracted by a single Participant or group
of Participants to assist with their own Project goals or deliverables, typically done by way of a
Change Order, will be borne solely by the applicable Participant or Participants involved.
2. Individual Participants' Administrative Costs
All non-personnel administrative costs incurred, including but not limited to shipping, post-
processing, custom products, etc., will be deducted from a ParticipanYs contingency on an as-
needed basis.
3. Project-Other Administrative Costs
Costs for any general administrative work as assigned to King County (apart from PM services) will
be borne solely by King County. Likewise, all administrative or technical work performed by any
Participant or its own contractors will be borne by that Participant. This includes but is not limited to
any supplemental field or ground control work done by the Participant, beyond that defined in this
Agreement.
Final Pricinq
As the Secondary (QA/QC) Vendor has been hired on a capped, sliding scale Agreement rather than a
fixed fee basis (wherein their sample QA rate shall be determined based on the severity and frequency
of defects found in their most recent test pass), the final pricing will not be known until the Project
completion. As a cost cap was established however for this contract, the cap shall be used to generate
the "worst case" pricing estimates as well as invoices generated for each Participant.
Upon Project completion of deliverables for all Participants for the Imagery and Standard Deliverables
stage, a calculation shall be done to determine any overpayment by all Participants.
Contin_pencv Percentaqes to be Applied
2015 Invoicing Only-Contingency Amount
For those parties who wish to be billed solely in 2015 or for those parties who wish to be partially billed
in 2014 and the remaining amount in 2015, a standard contingency percentage of fifteen percent (15%)
shall be applied to their total Standard Deliverables pricing.
2014 Invoicing Only -Contingency Amount
For those parties who wish to be billed entirely in 2014, a standard contingency percentage of finrenty
five percent(25%) shall be applied to their total Standard Deliverables pricing. This higher contingency
percentage is designed to offset the greater number of unknowns to be present at the earlier invoice
date than would be known later in the Project.
Contingency Added to Estimate
2015 Funding Agreement-Renton- 11/24/2015 Page 37 of 42
AGENDA ITEM #6, c)
The contingency amount will be added to the base costs for the calculation of their total invoice
amounts. This contingency will be included in all initial pricing estimates distributed, as well as the final
invoice.
Unused Contingency to be Refunded
All unused portions of the contingency are refundable at the conclusion of the Project.
Contingency Purpose
Contingency fund collection is intended to ensure that Project cost changes due to unforeseen Project
circumstances will not cause undue risk of parties withdrawing from the Project related to escalating
pricing late in the Project.
The Two Component Categories
Note: These descriptions are intended to provide clarification of these costs and mechanisms specific
to Component 1 deliverables and should not be considered a comprehensive description.
Component 9: Imagery and Related Deliverables
Each Participant will receive a standard set of imagery and related data deliverables as the default,
non-optional deliverables for the Project. These deliverables include such items as the raw imagery,
coordinates for photo centers, standard orthoimagery, orthomosaics, ground control, and analytical
aero-triangulation solution.
Component 2: Supplemental Data Deliverables
Each Participant has the option to request additional (supplemental) deliverables. Such supplemental
data deliverables may include:
t. Additional work on the DEM used for orthorectification in order to create a Digital Terrain
Model (DTM) suitable for detailed contours. This includes creation of contours.

Supplementa/Data Deliverables— General Cost Descriptions, Factors and Mechanics
The following definitions, factors and mechanics apply to all Supplemental Deliverables activities for
this Project, regardless of whether the work is "New Work" (no existing data baseline to be reconciled)
or"Build Upon an Existing Baseline" (data to be correlated with an existing baseline dataset.)
Note: These descriptions are intended to provide clarification of these costs and mechanisms and
should not be considered a comprehensive description.
2015 Funding Agreement—Renton—11/24/2015 Page 38 of 42
AGENDA ITEM #6, c)
1. Supplemental Data Deliverables -Total Cost
Total Supplemental Data deliverables costs will be the sum of each of the "general" individual
deliverable costs related to Supplemental Deliverables as described below, in addition to those
expenses outlined and described in the applicable section/s for"New Work" and "Build Upon and
Existing Baseline" as applicable.
2. Adjustments to the Participant's Supplemental Deliverables Request
Unlike imagery, most Supplemental Deliverables requests can, if needed, be adjusted without
changing flight plans or other related flight window tasks. However it is agreed that should a
ParticipanYs original Supplemental Deliverables area decrease significantly or require cancellation
altogether, solely in the case of"New Work", some charges may still apply (see "Supplemental
Deliverables— New Work, Reduction of AOI After Start of Work" section below for details.) Any
such charges still charged to the Participant will be at the sole discretion of a majority vote of the
PSG, using as a guideline whether a reduction in "New Work"AOI by a Participant would result in
a notable cost being passed onto the remaining Participants requesting "New Work" Supplemental
Deliverables.
3. Timing of Supplemental Data Change Orders
As all Supplemental Deliverables work is anticipated to occur following the closure of the imagery
acquisition flight window, Participants requesting Supplemental Deliverables do not need to
formalize their requests prior to the start of the flight window, as is required for imagery
deliverables. Instead, for Supplemental Deliverables Participants will have the opportunity to freely
adjust their AOI for Supplemental Deliverables until the start of work by the vendors on the
Supplemental Data activities. In most cases, with the exception of"New Work"AOI reduction,
adjustments to such AOIs will be allowed during the Supplemental Deliverables work, up until such
a time as that area's production work commences. Such adjustments will generally be accepted to
the extent possible, at the discretion of the PSG.
a. Supplemental Deliverables— New Work, Reduction of AIO After Start of Work"
As outlined elsewhere in this section, for supplemental deliverables which do not need to be
correlated to an existing baseline, Participants may see potential savings due to shared costs with
other Participants for those areas which have overlapping AOIs. As parties may have been notified
of the pricing estimates for their AOIs (including such shared savings), prior to the start of work for
Supplemental Deliverables for a given area. Should any Participant significantly reduce their AOI in
areas that include areas shared with other Participants after work on that area commences, such a
change could cause an increase in the pricing for other Participants. To prevent this issue, any
Participant that requests Supplemental Deliverables— New Work, and who reduces their AOI in
areas shared with other current Participants, shall remain liable for their proportional costs of any
such shared areas, at the discretion of a majority PSG vote based on such items as level of pricing
impact to other Participants, as outlined elsewhere in this document. This stipulation is designed to
protect, to the greatest degree possible, the pricing expectations set by the project with all
Participants requesting Supplemental Deliverables— New Work.
Note: Final determination regarding remaining liability costs being applied to a given Participant
shall be made by a majority vote of the PSG.
2015 Funding Agreement—Renton—11/24/2015 Page 39 of 42
AGENDA ITEM #6, c)
Suppiemental Deliverables—Two Cost Ailocation Models as Listed Below
There are finro potential models which may be applied by the Project for Supplemental Data
Deliverables, determined by whether the deliverables are "new work" or"build upon an existing
baseline." New work is much simpler and more easily/quickly executed by the Primary Vendor- and
QA'd by the Secondary Vendor. Updates based on building upon an existing baseline must be
correlated to an existing baseline dataset and are both more complex and more time consuming, and
therefore may cost more than "new work." The following costing models reflect this reality.
Note: If necessary, each Supplemental Deliverable type requested may have its own unique AOI
definition.
1. Supplemental Deliverables Cost— New Work
The Supplemental Deliverables— "New Work" cost allocation model shall be considered the correct
approach when no existing baseline must be accommodated by the Primary and Secondary
vendors. For such deliverables, the following model applies.
a) "New Work" AOI definition
Each Participant defines its AOI based on its business needs, includinq an adeauate
buffer. No additional buffer will be applied by the Project. The AOI may be the same or
smaller than the Imagery AOI. It does not need to conform to the 3000-ft grid used to
define the Imagery AOI.
b) "New Work" Unit Costing by Deliverable Type
Each Supplemental deliverable type is assigned a per square mile unit cost unique to that
deliverable type specifically for"New Work."
c) "New Work" Supplemental Deliverables AOI Calculation
Each Supplemental Data deliverable's AOI is calculated per square mile, irrespective of
alignment to the predefined imagery tile grid.
d) "New Work" Supplemental Deliverables Cost Calculation Method
The cost calculation method for each Supplemental Deliverables product is:
square miles of a Participant's Supplemental Deliverable AOI multiplied by the unit cost for the
applicable deliverable type, divided by the actual area of overlap with other participants (if any)
for that specific deliverable type and area.
NOTE: For"New Work" Supplemental Deliverables in areas with overlap, the cost of each
deliverable will be divided equally among affected Participants on the basis of the actual overlap
area for that specific deliverable type.
e) Same Standard, All Participants
All deliverable types for all Participants will be delivered according to the same specifications as
2015 Funding Agreement—Renton—11/24/2015 Page 40 of 42
AGENDA 1TEM #6, c)
defined in the SOW.
NOTE: If additional work (usually an additional attribute) is required for a given
deliverable for a specific Participant or a non-majority group of Participants, such a
request or requests will be considered data updates, as such, costs will be calculated as
documented in the "Supplemental Deliverables - Build Upon an Existing Baseline" section
fl Additional "New Work" Participants
"New Work"AOIs for additional Participants may be added so long as the extent required by the
new AOIs fall within the combined extent of the existing Participants' AOIs, the work can be
completed within the existing Project schedule, and the new Participants adopt all other existing
Project specifications as outlined in the SOW.
g) All Applicable Costs Apply
All other Supplemental Deliverables costs for"New Work"work shall apply, as
documented in the "Supplemental Data Deliverables—General Descriptions, Factors and
Mechanics" section above.
2. Supplemental Deliverables— Buitd Upon an Existing Baseline
For Participants who are receiving updated deliverables (i.e., data exists and is supplied to the
vendor), the Supplemental Deliverables—"Build Upon an Existing Baseline" option may be selected
by the Participant as the desired approach. For such deliverables, the cost allocation model for
"Build Upon an Existing Baseline"would apply:
a) Total Price is the Sum of All Costs
A Participant's total Supplemental Cost is comprised of the sum of all applicable line item
Supplemental deliverable costs, where each deliverable is uniquely defined for thaf
Participant.
b) Various Standards May Be Utilized in Change Orders By Individual Participants
Supplemental Data Change Order/s for a specific Participant may be specified utilizing unique
specifications to that Participant, due to the fact that such "Build Upon Existing Baseline"
deliverable is generally negotiated on a unique, individual basis, apart from other Participants'
deliverables and contracted Change Orders.
c) Separate Pricing Model Applied
The cost of each line item is also uniquely negotiated based on various factors, including but not
limited to such items as the state of the existing data, the area the update entails, and other,
potentially unique requirements and specifications, as outlined by the Participant requesting that
deliverable within their Change Order.
d) Additional "Build Upon an Existing Baseline" Participants AOIs—Same Change Order
Under certain circumstances (listed below) the AOIs for additional Participants may be added to
a previously negotiated, documented and mutually accepted Change Order(a Change Order
already accepted by the County, requesting Participant, QA Vendor and Acquisition Vendor.)
Such an addition shall be acceptable only if all aforementioned parties, as well as the new
requesting party, agree to the following conditions, along with any other specific conditions the
parties may believe are relevant to the specific Change Order:
2015 Funding Agreement—Renton—11/24/2015 Page 41 of 42
AGENDA ITEM #6, c)
i) The requested deliverables are the same or substantively the same, such that the nature
and timing of already-negotiated deliverables would remain unchanged for existing Change
Order ParticipanUs
ii) The existing baseline Participant data to be added is of the same or higher quality than that
baseline data already included in the existing Change Order's accepted AOI
iii) The pricing model already negotiated in the mutually accepted Change Order would not be
required to change on a per-unit or per-deliverables basis
iv) No undue risk to scope, schedule or budget are incurred by the addition of the new
deliverables, geographic scope or other changes required for the additional
v) All existing specifications, acceptance criteria and other requirements already documented
in the Change Order would remain unchanged —or that any change incurred by the
additional Participant/s are acceptable to all Parties
vi) Participant/s to be included in the existing Change order
e) All Applicable Costs Apply
All other Supplemental Deliverables costs for"Build Upon an Existing Baseline"work also apply,
as documented in the "Supplemental Data Deliverables—General Descriptions, Factors and
Mechanics" section above.
