Section 4. Registration of Bonds and Book-Entry System.
(a) Bond Registrar/Bond Register. The City hereby specifies and adopts the system
of registration approved by the Washington State Finance Committee from time to time
through the appointment of state fiscal agencies. The City shall cause a bond register to be
maintained by the Bond Registrar. So long as any Bonds remain outstanding, the Bond
Registrar shall make all necessary provisions to permit the exchange or registration or transfer
of Bonds at its principal corporate trust office. The Bond Registrar may be removed at any time
-]5-
ORDINANCE NO. 5672
at the option of the Finance Director upon prior notice to the Bond Registrar and a successor
Bond Registrar appointed by the Finance Director. No resignation or removal of the Bond
Registrar shall be effective until a successor shall have been appointed and until the successor
Bond Registrar shall have accepted the duties of the Bond Registrar hereunder. The Bond
Registrar is authorized, on behalf of the City, to authenticate and deliver Bonds transferred or
exchanged in accordance with the provisions of such Bonds and this ordinance and to carry out
all of the Bond Registrar’s powers and duties under this ordinance. The Bond Registrar shall be
responsible for its representations contained in the Certificate of Authentication of the Bonds.
(b) Registered Ownership. The City and the Bond Registrar, each in its discretion,
may deem and treat the Registered Owner of each Bond as the absolute owner thereof for all
purposes (except as provided in Section 17 of this ordinance), and neither the City nor the Bond
Registrar shall be affected by any notice to the contrary. Payment of any such Bond shall be
made only as described in Section 4(h), but such Bond may be transferred as herein provided.
All such payments made as described in Section 4(h) shall be valid and shall satisfy and
discharge the liability of the City upon such Bond to the extent of the amount or amounts so
paid.
(c) DTC Acceptance/Letters o~: Representations. The Bonds initially shall be held’ by
DTC acting as depository. To induce DTC to accept the Bonds as eligible for deposit at DTC, the
City has executed and delivered to DTC a Blanket Issuer Letter of Representations. Neither the
City nor the Bond Registrar will have any responsibility or obligation to DTC participants.or the
persons for whom they act as nominees (or any successor depository) with respect to the
Bonds in respect of the accuracy of any records maintained by DTC (or any successor
-16-
ORDINANCE NO. 5672
depository) or any DTC participant, the payment by DTC (or any successor depository) or any
DTC participant of any amount in respect of the principal of or interest on Bonds, any notice
which is permitted or required to be given to Registered Owners under this ordinance (except
such notices as shall be required to be given by theCity to the Bond Registrar or to DTC (or any
successor depository)), or any consent given or other action taken by DTC (or any successor
depository) as the Registered Owner. For so long as any Bonds are held in by a depository, DTC
or its successor depository shall be deemed to be the Registered Owner for all purposes
hereunder, and all references herein to the Registered Owners shall mean DTC (or any
successor depository) or its nominee and shall not mean the owners of any beneficial interest in
such Bonds.
If any Bond shall be duly presented for payment and funds have not been duly provided
by the City on such applicable date, then interest shall continue to accrue thereafter on the
unpaid principal thereof at the rate stated on such Bond until it is paid.
(d)Use o]~ Depository.
(1) The Bonds shall be registered initially in the name of "Cede & Co.", as
nominee of DTC, with one Bond maturing on each of the maturity dates for the Bonds in a
denomination corresponding to the total principal therein designated to mature on such date.
R~egistered ownership of such Bonds, or any portions thereof, may not thereafter be transferred
except (A) to any successor of DTC or its nominee, provided that any such successor shall be
qualified under any applicable laws to provide the service proposed to be provided by it; (B) to
any substitute depository appointed by the Finance Director pursuant to subsection (2) below
-17-
ORDINANCE NO. 5672
or such substitute depository’s successor; or (C)to any person as provided in subsection (4)
below.
(2) Upon the resignation of DTC or its successor (or any substitute depository
or its successor) from its functions as depository or a determination by the Finance Director to
discontinue the system of book entry transfers through DTC or its successor (or any substitute
depository or its successor), the Finance Director may hereafter appoint a substitute
depository. Any such substitute depository shall be qualified under any applicable laws to
provide the services proposed to be provided by it.
(3) In the case of any transfer pursuant to clause (A) or (B) of subsection (1)
above, the Bond Registrar shall, upon receipt of all outstanding Bonds, together with a written
request on behalf of the Finance Director, issue a single new Bond for each maturity then
outstanding, registered in the name of such successor or such substitute depository, or their
nominees, as the case may be, all as specified in such written request of the Finance Director.
(4) In the event that (A) DTC or its successor (or substitute depository or its
successor) resigns from its functions as depository, and no substitute depository can be
obtained, or (B) the Finance Director determines that it is in the best interest of the beneficial
owners of the Bonds that such owners be able to obtain physical Bond certificates, the
ownership of such Bonds may then be transferred to any person or entity as herein provided,
and shall no longer be held by a depository. The Finance Director shall deliver a written request
to the Bond Registrar, together with a supply of physical Bonds, to issue Bonds as herein
provided in any authorized denomination. Upon receipt by the Bond Registrar of all then
outstanding Bonds together with a written request on behalf of the Finance Director to the
ORDINANCE NO. 5672
Bond Registrar, new Bonds shall be issued in the appropriate denominations and registered in
the names of such persons as are requested in such written request.
(e) Registration of Transfer of Ownership or Exchange; Change in Denominations.
The transfer of any Bond may be registered and Bonds may be exchanged, but no transfer of
any such Bond shall be valid unless it is surrendered to the Bond Registrar with the assignment
form appearing on such Bond duly executed by the Registered Owner or such Registered
Owner’s duly authorized agent in a manner satisfactory to the Bond Registrar. Upon such
surrender, the Bond Registrar shall cancel the surrendered Bond and shall authenticate and
deliver, without charge to the Registered Owner or transferee therefor, a new Bond (or Bonds
at the option of the new Registered Owner) of the same date, maturity and interest rate and
for the same aggregate principal amount in any authorized denomination, naming as Registered
Owner the person or persons listed as the assignee on the assignment form appearing on the
surrendered Bond, in exchange for such surrendered and cancelled Bond. Any Bond may be
surrendered to the Bond Registrar and exchanged, without charge, for an equal aggregate
principal amount of Bonds of the same date, maturity and interest rate, in any authorized
denomination. The Bond Registrar shall not be obligated to register the transfer or to exchange
any Bond during the 15 days preceding any interest payment or principal payment date any
such Bond is to be redeemed.
(f) Bond Registrar~s Ownership of Bonds. The Bond Registrar may become the
Registered Owner of any Bond with the same rights it would have if it were not the Bond
Registrar, and to the extent permitted by law, may act as depository for and permit any of its
-19-
ORDINANCE NO. 5672
officers or directors to act as a member of, or in any other capacity with respect to, any
committee formed to protect the right of the Registered Owners of Bonds.
(g) Registration Covenant. The City covenants that, until all Bonds have been
surrendered and canceled, it will maintain a system for recording the ownership of each Bond
that complies with the provisions of Section 149 of the Code.
(h) Place and Medium of Payment. Both principal of and interest on the Bonds shall
be payable in lawful money of the United States of America. Interest on the Bonds shall be
calculated on the basis of a year of 360 days and twelve 30-day months. For so long as all
Bonds are held by a depository, payments of principal and interest thereon shall be made as
provided in accordance with the operational arrangements of DTC referred to in the Letter of
Representations. In the event that the Bonds are no longer held by a depository, interest on
the Bonds shall be paid by check or draft mailed to the Registered Owners at the addresses for
such Registered Owners appearing on the Bond Register on the fifteenth day of the month
preceding the interest payment date, or upon the written request of a Registered Owner of
more than ~1,000,000 of Bonds (received by the Bond Registrar at least 15 days prior to the
applicable payment date), such payment shall be made by the Bond Registrar by wire transfer
to the account within the United States designated by the Registered Owner. Principal of the
Bonds shall be payable upon presentation and surrender of such Bonds by the Registered

having the same maturity date, the particular Bonds or portions of Bonds of such maturity to be
redeemed shall be selected by lot (or in such manner determined by the Bond Registrar) in
increments of $5,000. In the case of a Bond of a denomination greater than ~;5,000, the City
and the Bond Registrar shall treat each Bond as representing such number of separate Bonds
each of the denomination of $5,000 as is obtained by dividing the actual principal amount of
-21-
ORDINANCE NO. 5672
such Bond by $5,0OO. In the event that only a portion of the principal sum of a Bond is
redeemed, upon surrender of such Bond at the principal office of the Bond Registrar there shall

longer held in uncertificated form), notice of redemption shall be given in the manner

any such redemption (which redemption may be conditioned by the Bond Registrar on the
receipt of sufficient funds for redemption or otherwise) shall be given by the Bond Registrar on
behalf of the City by mailing a copy of an official redemption notice by first class mail at least
20 days and not more than 60 days prior to the date fixed for redemption to the Registered

which have been redeemed shall be canceled by the Bond Registrar and shall not be reissued.
(3) Additional Notice. In addition to the foregoing notice, further notice shall
be given by the City as set out below, but no defect in said further notice nor any failure to give
all or any portion of such further notice shall in any manner defeat the effectiveness of a call for
redemption if notice thereof is given as above prescribed. Each further notice of redemption
given hereunder shall contain the information required above for an official notice of
redemption plus (A) the CUSIP numbers of all Bonds being redeemed; (B) the date of issue of
the Bonds as originally issued; (C) the rate of interest borne by each Bond being redeemed;

shall be held separate and apart from all other funds and .accounts of the City.

(i)To pay Maintenance and Operation Expense;
(ii)To pay the interest on the Parity Bonds, including reimbursements to the
issuer of a Credit Facility if the Credit Facility secures the payment of interest on Parity
Bonds and the ordinance authorizing such Parity Bonds provides for such

issuer of a Credit Facility if the Credit Facility secures the payment of principal on Parity
Bonds and the ordinance authorizing such Parity Bonds provides for such
reimbursement;
(iv) To make all payments required to be made into any sinking fund or bond
redemption fund hereafter created for the payment of Future Parity Bonds which are
Term Bonds;
-25-
ORDINANCE NO. 5672
(v) To make all payments required to be made into the Reserve Fund,
including any reimbursements required for Qualified Insurance or Qualified Letter of
Credit;
(vi) To make all payments required to be made into any revenue bond
redemption fund or warrant redemption fund and debt service account or reserve
account created to pay and secure the payment of the principal of and interest on any
revenue bonds or revenue warrants of the City having a lien upon Gross Revenue junior
and inferior to the lien thereon for the payment of the principal of and interest on the
Parity Bonds; and
(vii) To retire by optional redemption or purchase any outstanding revenue
bonds or revenue warrants of the City, to make necessary additions, betterments,
improvements and repairs to or extensions and replacements of the Waterworks Utility,
to make deposits into the Rate Stabilization Fund, or for any other lawful City purpose.
(c) Rate Stabilization Fund. The City has previously created a Waterworks Rate
Stabilization Fund (the "Rate Stabilization Fund"). The City may, at any time, as determined by
the City and as consistent with subsection (b) of this section, deposit Gross Revenue into the
Rate Stabilization Fund, excluding principal proceeds of Parity Bonds or other borrowing. The
City may withdraw any or all of the money from the Rate Stabilization Fund for inclusion in
Gross Revenue for any fiscal year of the City. Such deposits or withdrawals may be made up to
and including the date 90 days after the end of the fiscal year for which the deposit or
withdrawal will be included in Gross Revenue. No deposit of Gross Revenue will be made into
-26-
ORDINANCE NO. 5672
the Rate Stabilization Fund to the extent that such deposit would prevent the City from meeting
the Coverage Requirement.
Section 7. Funds and Accounts.
(a) Bond Fund. There is hereby created in the City Treasury the Waterworks
Revenue Bond Fund, 2012 (the "Bond Fund"), which shall be a "Parity Bond Fund" and a
subaccount of the Waterworks Utility Fund. The Bond Fund shall be maintained for the
purpose of paying the principal of and interest on the Bonds. As long as any Bonds remain
outstanding, the City hereby irrevocably obligates and binds itself to set aside and pay from the
Waterworks Utility Fund into the Bond Fund those amounts necessary, together with such
other funds as are on hand and available in the Bond Fund, to pay the interest or principal and
interest next coming due on outstanding Bonds. Such payments from the Waterworks Utility
Fund to the Bond Fund shall be made in a fixed amount without regard to any fixed proportion
following the closing and delivery of the Bonds on or before each date on which an installment
of interest or principal and interest falls due on the Bonds equal to the installment of interest or
principal and interest.
(b) Reserve Fund. There has heretofore, been created by the City a special fund of
the City known as the Waterworks Revenue Bond Reserve Fund (the "Reserve Fund") for
purpose of securing the payment of the principal of and interest on all Parity Bonds. The City
hereby irrevocably covenants and agrees that on or prior to the date of issuance of the Bonds,
the amount on deposit in the Reserve Fund will be at least equal to the Reserve Requirement.
Except for withdrawals therefrom as authorized herein, the Reserve Fund shall be
maintained at the ~eserve Requirement at all times so long as any Parity Bonds are
-27-
ORDINANCE NO. 5672
Outstanding. When the total amount in the Bond Fund shall equal the total amount of principal
and interest for all outstanding Bonds, no further payment need be made into the Bond Fund.
Notwithstanding the first sentence of this paragraph, the Reserve Requirement may be
decreased for any issue of Parity Bonds when and to the extent the City has redeemed or
otherwise defeased any Outstanding Parity Bonds.
If there shall be a deficiency in the Bond Fund to meet maturing installments of either
principal or interest, as the case may be, on the Bonds, that deficiency shall be made up from
the Reserve Fund by the withdrawal of cash therefrom for that purpose and after all cash has
been depleted, then by draws on the Qualified Insurance or Qualified Letter of Credit for that
purpose. Any deficiency created in the Reserve Fund by reason of any such withdrawal shall
then be made up from Net Revenue first available after making necessary provisions for the
required payments into the Bond Fund. Any money in the Reserve Fund in excess of the
Reserve Requirement may be withdrawn and deposited in any Parity Bond Fund and spent for
the purpose of retiring .Parity Bonds or may be deposited in any other fund and spent for any
other lawful Waterworks Utility purpose.
The City may provide for the purchase, redemption or defeasance of Parity Bonds by the
use of money on deposit in the Bond Fund or the Reserve Fund as long as the money remaining
in those funds is sufficient to satisfy the required deposits in those funds for the remaining
Parity Bonds.
All money in the Bond Fund or Reserve Fund may be kept in cash or on deposit in the
official bank depository of the City or in any national bank or may be invested in any legal
investment for City funds. Interest on any of those investments or on that bank account shall
-28-
ORDINANCE NO. 5672
be deposited in the Reserve Fund until the total Reserve Requirement shall have been
accumulated therein, after which time the interest shall be deposited in any Parity Bond Fund.
Notwithstanding the provisions for the deposit or maintenance of earnings in the Bond
Fund or the Reserve Fund, the City also may transfer out of the Bond Fund or Reserve Fund any
money required in order to prevent, any Parity Bonds from becoming "arbitrage bonds" under
the Code.
If the City fails to set aside and pay into the Bond Fund or the Reserve Fund the amounts
set forth above, the Registered Owner of any of the outstanding Bonds may bring an action
against the City to compel that setting aside and payment.
(c) Pledge of Revenue and Lien Position. The Net Revenue is hereby pledged to the
payment of the Parity Bonds, and the Parity Bonds shall constitute a lien and charge upon such
Net Revenue prior and superior to any other charge whatsoever.
(d) Regarding Suj~iciency of Revenues. The Council hereby finds that in fixing the
amounts to be paid into the Bond Fund out of the Gross Revenues, it has exercised due regard
for the Maintenance and Operation Expense and has not obligated the City to set aside and pay
into such Fund a greater amount of such Gross Revenues than in its judgment will be available
over and above the Maintenance and Operation Expense.
Section 8. Covenants. The City covenants and agrees with the Registered Owner of
each Bond at any time outstanding as follows:
(a) Rate Covenant. It will establish, maintain and collect rates and charges for all
services and facilities provided by the Waterworks Utility which will be fair and
nondiscriminatory, and will adjust those rates and charges from time to time so that:
-29-
ORDINANCE NO. 5672
(1) Gross Revenue will at all times be sufficient to (A)pay all Maintenance
and Operation Expense on a current basis, (B)pay when due all amounts that the City is
obligated to pay into the Reserve Fund and any Parity Bond Funds and (C)pay all taxes,
assessments or other governmental charges lawfully imposed upon the Waterworks Utility or
other revenue therefrom or payments in lieu thereof and any and all other amounts which the
City may now or hereafter become obligated to pay from Gross Revenue by law or contract;
and
(2) Net Revenue in each calendar year will be at least equal to the Coverage
Requirement.
(b) Maintenance and Repair. It will at all times maintain and keep the Waterworks
Utility in good repair, working order and condition and also will at all times operate such Utility
and the business in connection therewith in an efficient manner and at a reasonable cost.
(c) Disposal of Waterworks Utility. It will not sell, lease, mortgage or in any manner
encumber or otherwise dispose of the Waterworks Utility in its entirety unless, simultaneously
with such sale or other disposition, all Parity Bonds are defeased pursuant to the provisions of
this ordinance.
It will not sell, lease, mortgage or in any manner encumber or otherwise dispose of any
part of the Waterworks Utility (other than timber), including all additions and improvements
thereto and extensions thereof at any time made, that are used, useful or material in the
operation of the Waterworks Utility, unless provision is made for the replacement thereof or
for payment into the Bond Fund of the greatest of the following:
-30-
ORDINANCE NO. 5672
(1) An amount which will be in the same proportion to the net amount of
any Parity Bonds then outstanding (defined as the total amount of those bonds less the amount
of cash and investments in the Reserve Fund and any Parity Bond Funds) that Gross Revenue
from the portion of the Waterworks Utility sold or disposed of for the preceding year bears to
the total Gross Revenue for that period;
(2) An amount which will be in the same proportion to the net amount of
any Parity Bonds then outstanding (as defined above) that the Net Revenue from the portion of
the Waterworks Utility sold or disposed of for the preceding year bears to the total Net

A proclamation by Mayo.r Law was read declaring October 17 to 2:1, 2012 to be
"National Business Women’s Week" in the City of Renton, and encouraging all
citizens to join in this special observance. MOVED BY BRIERE, SECONDED BY
PALMER, COUNCIL CONCUR IN THE PROCLAMATION. CARRIED.
Laurel Winston and Irene Roberts accepted the proclamation on behalf of
Renton Business and Professional Women. Ms. Winston stated that the
organization has been in Renton for almost nine years, and its goal is to support
women politically, professionally, and personally. She invited everyone to
attend their next meeting on October 19 when they will honor the Woman of
the Year and Woman of Achievement. She noted that Councilmember Terri
Briere was last year’s Woman of the Year.
Ms. Roberts announced that this year’s Woman of the Year is Sabrina Mirante
and Woman of Achievement is Mary Clymer. She thanked City officials for
supporting the organization.
Mayor Law expressed appreciation for the opportunity to present the biennial
budget proposal for 2013-20:14. He stated that although the nation’s economy
shows signs of improvement and Renton remains healthy, continued steps are
necessary to protect the interests of Renton residents.
Pointing out that government revenues lag behind the regular marketplace,
Mayor Law explained that the budget proposal reflects the continued erosion
of operating revenues due primarily to declining property values.. He stated
that over the next two years the preliminary estimates project a ~5 million per
year shortfall of revenues against the rising costs of doing business.
October 15, 2012 Renton City Council Minutes Page 305
Mayor Law remarked that with the help of employees and unions, he is
presenting a balanced budget that meets these revenue shortfalls with
minimum employee layoffs and some proposed fee increases. He announced
that the total proposed two-year budget for 2013 and 2014 is ~457 million, of
which ~202 million is in the General Fund that is used for police, fire and
emergency services, parks, street repair, and other City services.
Mayor Law stated that because of the City’s strategic investments in economic
development, commitment to reforms, and through fiscal disciplines, the City’s
financial situation is stable and improvinl~. He announced that 200 new firms
have located in Renton this year, and 6,000 new jobs have been created over
the past two years. He remarked that commercial vacancy rates have remained
significantly low compared with other cities in the Puget Sound region, and The
Landing continues to add new businesses every month. Mayor Law also
remarked that The Boeing Company’s announcement to build the 737 MAX in
Renton and their increased production to 42 planes per month for the 737 Next
Generation have led to over 1,000 new jobs a~ the Renton plant.
Mayor Law explained that despite these positive factors, the City continues to
face budget challenges. He explained that property tax constitutes nearly 30%
of the General Fund and property tax assessments, which lag behind the
market by approximately two years, have dropped significantly. He further
explained that for 2013 the assessed valuation, based on 201:~ market value of
homes, is projected to decline by four and a half percent. He stated that this
reduces the City’s property tax level by ~1.9 million annually. Also, Mayor Law
noted that $1.5 million in federal public safety grants that were available during
the recession have expired and overhead costs have increased.
Continuing, Mayor Law announced that once again the Community Budget
Advisory Group met over a period of several weeks with department
administrators and the Finance Department to examine city policies and
programs, and provide valuable guidance for this proposed budget. He thanked
the members and stated that the budget reflects several key priorities and
suggestions for cost savings recommended by the group.-
Mayor Law reported that the proposed budget reduces operating costs through
additional reductions in staffing, reforms to reduce medical premium costs, and
increased revenue options. He explained that the reduction in workforce by 25
positions over the biennium would be achieved mostly by attrition to avoid
layoffs. Giving praise to the employee unions for their help and collaboration,
Mayor Law stated that medical premium costs for the city would be reduced
though increased employee premium contributions.
Regarding revenue options, Mayor Law stated that Renton prides itself for
having some of the lowest fees in the county for the services that are offered.
He stated that most of the fees have remained unchanged for many years
despite the increase in cost of doing business. He remarked that this budget
proposes to increase the business license fee which has not been increased
since :~988, to establish new impact fees that will be phased-in beginning in
2014 for new development that will be paid for by developers, and to
implement a new medical transport fee.
October 15, 2012 Renton City Council Minutes Page 306
ADMINISTRATIVE REPORT
Mayor Law emphasized that it is imperative for the City to maintain its parks
and facilities, roads and utility infrastructure. He announced that the City has
begun a 542 million redevelopment project on Rainier Ave. S. funded largely by
state and federal grants, and has broken ground on the SW 27th St./Strander
Blvd. Connection that will provide access for Renton residents to the future
Sound Transit Commuter Rail Station. Mayor Law also announced that to date
nearly $41 million has been invested in the Sunset Area in the Renton
Highlands.
Continuing, Mayor Law stated that investing in safety has been his priority, and
the crime rate as measured by.crimes per thousand in Renton has decreased by
double digits over the last three years and is currently one of the lowest in
South King County. He stated that the City is committed to finding creative
ways to reduce crime, and has been effective at reducing negative impacts in
several neighborhoods. He emphasized that despite reductions in staffinl~,
police officers have successfully targeted repeat offenders and focused
resources on areas experiencing high levels of criminal and dangerous activity.
He noted that the City was successful in closing down a local restaurant and bar
that was the site of many serious offenses and created fear for families living
near it. Mayor Law also remarked that the Fire and Emergency Services
Department has made sure that response time to residents has not been
impacted despite reduced resources.
Mayor Law explained that on November 6 residents in the West Hill area will
have the opportunity to vote and choose whether they would like to annex to
Renton. He remarked that the annexation poses both a challenge and an
opportunity for the City. He explained that the challenge is to provide needed
services with available resources, and the opportunity is to transform West Hill
into a safe urban center where residents and businesses thrive. He noted that
this budget proposal does not include revenues or expenditures for West Hill.
Concluding, Mayor Law stated that Renton is defined by its excellent quality of
life due to the great programs and services the City continues to provide
despite significant personnel and budget cuts. He remarked that these services
contribute to a safe, healthy, and vibrant community that offers opportunities
for even/one. He thanked Council for their guidance and input, and asked for
additional feedback and recommendations regarding the proposed budget.
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 2012 and beyond. One item
noted was:
Hundreds of filmmakers were seen in action all over Renton October 5 to 7,
competing in Renton FilmFrenzy V, the annual 50-hour filmmaking
competition. A record 25 teams, including 13 student-led teams, registered

The City of Renton, Washington (the "City"), Water and Sewer Revenue Refunding Bonds, 2012 (the "Bonds"), will be issued
as fully registered bonds in the name of Cede & Co., as Registered Owner and as nominee for The Depository Trust Company,
New York, New York ("DTC"). DTC will act as securities depository for the Bonds. Individual purchases and sales of the
Bonds may be made in book-entry form only in denominations of $5,000 or any integral multiple thereof within a maturity.
Purchasers will not receive certificates representing their interest in the Bonds. See "THE BONDS."
The Bonds bear interest payable semiannually on each June 1 and December 1, beginning June 1, 2013, until maturity or prior
redemption of the Bonds. The principal of and interest on the Bonds are payable by the fiscal agency of the State of
Washington, currently The Bank of New York Mellon in New York, New York (the "Bond Registrar"). For so long as the
Bonds remain in a "book-entry only" transfer system, the Bond Registrar will make such payments only to DTC, which, in

of the Bonds as described herein under Appendix E--"BOOK-ENTRY SYSTEM."
The Bonds are subject to redemption prior to maturity as provided herein. See "THE BONDS---Redemption."

Bonds on Net Revenues is equal to the lien securing the Outstanding Parity Bonds (as defined herein) and superior to all other
charges of any kind. The City reserves the right to issue Future Parity Bonds upon compliance with certain conditions. See
"SECURITY AND SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE BONDS."
THE BONDS ARE SPECIAL OBLIGATIONS OF THE CITY PAYABLE ONLY FROM THE BOND FUND AND
RESERVE FUND. THE BONDS DO NOT CONSTITUTE GENERAL OBLIGATIONS OF THE CITY OR THE STATE

CITY OF RENTON, WASHINGTON
WATER AND SEWER REVENUE REFUNDING BONDS, 2012
INTRODUCTION
The City of Renton, Washington (the "City"), a municipal corporation duly organized and existing under the laws of the
State of Washington (the "State"), furnishes this Official Statement in connection with the offering of $8,720,000*
aggregate principal amount of Water and Sewer Revenue Refunding Bonds, 2012 (the "Bonds").
The Bonds are issued pursuant to Ordinance No. 5672, passed by the Council on October 15, 2012 (the "Bond
Ordinance"), and under and in accordance with the Renton Municipal Code and the laws and provisions of the State,
including chapters 39.46, 35.92 and 39.53 of the Revised Code of Washington ("RCW"). Capitalized terms not
otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in Appendix A--"COPY OF THE BOND ORDINANCE."
This Official Statement provides information concerning the City, the Bonds and the City’s combined water, sewer,
wastewater and storm drainage systems, as the same may be added to, improved and extended (the "Waterworks
Utility"). The Bonds are issued on a parity of lien with the following obligations of the Waterworks Utility:
¯Water and Sewer Revenue Refunding Bonds, 1998 (the "1998 Bonds") currently outstanding in the aggregate
principal amount of $360,000, which are expected to be redeemed, in whole, on December 1, 2012 with
available funds of the City;
¯Water and Sewer Revenue Bonds, 2002 (the "2002 Bonds") currently outstanding in the aggregate principal
amount of $1,025,000;
¯Water and Sewer Revenue Refunding Bonds, 2003 (the "2003 Bonds") currently outstanding in the aggregate
principal amount of $415,000;
¯Water and Sewer Revenue Bonds, 2004 (the "2004 Bonds") currently outstanding in the aggregate principal
amount of $10,335,000, of which $9,020,000 is expected to be refunded with proceeds of the Bonds;
¯Water and Sewer Revenue and Refunding Bonds, 2007 (the "2007 Bonds") currently outstanding in the
aggregate principal amount of $9,705,000;
¯Water and Sewer Revenue Bonds, 2008 Series A (the "2008A Bonds") currently outstanding in the aggregate
principal amount of $9,975,000; and
¯Water and Sewer Revenue Bonds, 2008 Series B (the "2008B Bonds") currently outstanding in the aggregate
principal amount of $2,035,000.
The 1998 Bonds, 2002 Bonds, 2003 Bonds, 2004 Bonds, 2007 Bonds, 2008A Bonds, and 2008B Bonds are collectively
referred to as the "Outstanding Parity Bonds." See "DEBT INFORMATION" herein. The Bonds are being issued to
refund a portion of the callable maturities of the 2004 Bonds, and to pay costs of issuance of the Bonds. See "USE OF
PROCEEDS" herein. The City has reserved the fight in the Bond Ordinance to issue additional bonds (the "Future
Parity Bonds") with a lien on Gross Revenue (as defined herein) of the Waterworks Utility on a parity with the lien of
the Outstanding Parity Bonds and the Bonds upon satisfaction of certain conditions. See "SECURITY AND
SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE BONDS--Future Parity Bonds." The Outstanding Parity Bonds, the Bonds and
any Future Parity Bonds are collectively referred to as the "Parity Bonds."
The Bonds are revenue obligations of the Waterworks Utility. Neither the full faith and credit nor the taxing power of
the City is pledged to the payment of the Bonds. The Bonds are not obligations of the State or any political subdivision
thereof other than the City. See "SECURITY AND SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE BONDS."
Preliminary, subject to change.
THE BONDS
General
The Bonds will be dated their date of delivery and will be issued in fully registered form in denominations of $5,000
each or integral multiples thereof within a maturity. The Bonds will mature on the dates and in the principal amounts
and will bear interest from their date, payable on June 1, 2013, and semiannually thereafter on December 1 and June 1
of each year, at the rates set forth on the inside cover of this Official Statement. Interest on the Bonds will be calculated
on the basis of a year of 360 days and twelve 30-day months.
The Bonds will be issued in registered form, initially registered in the name Cede & Co., as nominee for The Depository
Trust Company, New York, New York ("DTC"). Individual purchases of the Bonds will be made initially in
book-entry form only and purchasers will not receive certificates representing their interest in the Bonds purchased. So
long as Cede & Co. is the Registered Owner of the Bonds, as nominee of DTC, references herein to the Registered
Owners or bond owners will mean Cede & Co. and will not mean the "Beneficial Owners" of the Bonds. In this
Official Statement, the term "Beneficial Owner" will mean the person for whom a DTC participant acquires an interest
in the Bonds. See Appendix E--"BOOK-ENTRY SYSTEM."
Bond Registrar
The City has adopted the system of registration for the Bonds approved, from time to time, by the State Finance
Committee of the State (the "Committee"). Pursuant to chapter 43.80 RCW, the Committee designates one or more
fiscal agencies for bonds issued within the State. The State’s fiscal agent, currently The Bank of New York Mellon,
New York, New York (the "Bond Registrar"), will authenticate the Bonds and act as the paying agent and registrar for
the purpose of paying the principal of and interest on the Bonds, recording the purchase and registration, exchange or
transfer, and payment of Bonds and performing the other respective obligations of the paying agent and registrar. No
resignation or removal of the Bond Registrar shall become effective until a successor has been appointed and has
accepted the duties of Bond Registrar.
To meet payment requirements for the Bonds as the same becomes due and payable, the City will remit money from the
Waterworks Revenue Bond Fund, 2012 held under the Bond Ordinance (the "Bond Fund") to the Bond Registrar. See
"SECURXIT AND SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE BONDS--Funds and Accounts" herein. The Bond Registrar
will in turn remit such principal and interest to DTC participants for subsequent disbursement to the Beneficial Owners
of the Bonds as described in Appendix E--"BOOK-ENTRY SYSTEM." In the event that the Bonds are no longer held
by a depository, interest on the Bonds will be paid by check or draft mailed to the Registered Owners at the addresses
for such Registered Owners appearing on the Bond Register on the 15th day of the month preceding the interest
payment date, and principal of the Bonds shall be payable upon presentation and surrender of such Bonds by the
Registered Owners at the principal office of the Bond Registrar; provided, however, that if so requested in writing by
the Registered Owner of at least $1,000,000 principal amount of Bonds, interest will be paid by wire transfer on the date
due to an account with a bank located within the United States.
Redemption
Optional Redemption. The Bonds maturing in years 2018 through 2022, inclusive, are not subject to optional
redemption prior to maturity. The Bonds maturing on and after December 1, 2023 are subject to redemption at the
option of the City, in whole or in part (and if in part, with maturities to be selected by the City) on any date on and after
December 1, 2022 at the price equal to the principal amount to be redeemed, without premium, plus accrued interest, if
any, to the date fixed for redemption.
For as long as the Bonds are held by DTC, if fewer than all of the Bonds of a maturity are called for redemption, the
selection of Bonds within a maturity to be redeemed shall be made by DTC in accordance with its operational
procedures then in effect. If the Bonds are no longer held by a depository, the selection of such Bonds to be redeemed
and the surrender and reissuance thereof, as applicable, shall be made as provided in the Bond Ordinance. If the City
redeems at any one time fewer than all of the Bonds having the same maturity date, the particular Bonds or portions of
Bonds of such maturity to be redeemed shall be selected by lot (or in such manner determined by the Bond Registrar) in
increments of $5,000. In the case of a Bond of a denomination greater than $5,000, the City and the Bond Registrar
shall treat each Bond as representing such number of separate Bonds each of the denomination of $5,000 as is obtained
by dividing the actual principal amount of such Bond by $5,000. In the event that only a portion of the principal sum of
a Bond is redeemed, upon surrender of such Bond at the principal office of the Bond Registrar there shall be issued to
the Registered Owner, without charge therefor, for the then unredeemed balance of the principal sum thereof, at the
option of the Registered Owner, a Bond or Bonds of like maturity and interest rate in any of the denominations
authorized in the Bond Ordinance.
Notice of Redemption. For so long as the Bonds are held by DTC, notice of redemption (which notice may be
conditional) shall be given in accordance with the operational arrangements of DTC as then in effect, and neither the
City nor the Bond Registrar will provide any notice of redemption to any Beneficial Owners. Thereafter (if the Bonds
are no longer held by DTC), notice of redemption shall be given in the manner as provided in the Bond Ordinance.
Unless waived by any owner of Bonds to be redeemed, official notice of any such redemption (which redemption may
be conditioned by the Bond Registrar on the receipt of sufficient funds for redemption or otherwise) shall be given by
the Bond Registrar on behalf of the City by mailing a copy of an official redemption notice by first class mail at least
20 days and not more than 60 days prior to the date fixed for redemption to the Registered Owner of the Bond or Bonds
to be redeemed at the address shown on the Register or at such other address as is furnished in writing by such
Registered Owner to the Bond Registrar.
Open Market Purchase
The City has reserved the right at any time to use any surplus Net Revenue of the Waterworks Utility available after
providing for the payments required by paragraphs (1) through (6) described below under "SECURITY AND
SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE BONDS-~Flow of Funds," or other available funds, to purchase for retirement
any of the Bonds at any price deemed reasonable by the City.
Defeasance
In the event that money and/or "Government Obligations," as defined in chapter 39.53 RCW, as it may be amended,
maturing at such time or times and beating interest to be earned thereon in amounts sufficient to redeem and retire the
Bonds or any of them in accordance with their terms are set aside in a special account to effect such redemption or
retirement, and such money and the principal of and interest on such obligations are set aside irrevocably and pledged
for such purpose, then no further payments need be made into the Bond Fund for the payment of the principal of and
interest on the Bonds so provided for. Such Bonds will cease to be entitled to any lien, benefit or security of the Bond
Ordinance except the right to receive the funds so set aside and pledged, and such Bonds will be deemed not to be
outstanding.
As currently defined in chapter 39.53 RCW, the term "Government Obligations" means (a) direct obligations of or
obligations the principal and interest on which are unconditionally guaranteed by the United States of America and bank
certificates of deposit secured by such obligations; (b)bonds, debentures, notes, participation certificates or other
obligations issued by the Banks for Cooperatives, the Federal Intermediate Credit Bank, the Federal Home Loan Bank
System, the Export-import Bank of the United States, federal land banks or the Federal National Mortgage Association;
(c) public housing bonds and project notes fully ’secured by contracts with the United States; and (d) obligations of
financial institutions insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation to the extent insured or guaranteed as
permitted under any other provision of State law.
USE OF PROCEEDS
Purpose
The proceeds from the sale of the Bonds will be used to refund certain maturities of the City’s outstanding 2004 Bonds
for debt service savings, and to pay costs of issuance of the Bonds. See "Refunding Plan" below.

2027 1,760,000 5.00 12/1/2014 760167SN7
If the City determines to proceed with the refunding of Refunded Bonds, a portion of the proceeds of the Bonds will be
escrowed to the redemption date for the Refunded Bonds on December 1, 2014, at which time the Refunded Bonds will
be redeemed at a price of par plus accrued interest to the date of redemption.
From a portion of the proceeds of the Bonds, the City will purchase certain direct non-callable United States
Government Obligations ("Acquired Obligations"). These Acquired Obligations will be deposited in the custody of
U.S. Bank, National Association, Seattle, Washington (the "Escrow Agent"). The maturing principal of the Acquired
Obligations, interest earned thereon, and necessary cash balance, if any, will provide payment of:
(a)interest and principal on the Refunded Bonds when due up to and including December 1, 2014; and
(b)on December 1, 2014, the redemption price (100%) of the Refunded Bonds.
The Acquired Obligations, interest earned thereon, and necessary cash balance, if any, will irrevocably be pledged to
and held in trust for the benefit of the owners of the Refunded Bonds by the Escrow Agent, pursuant to an escrow
deposit agreement to be executed by the City and the Escrow Agent.
Verification of Mathematical Calculations
Grant Thornton LLP will verify the accuracy of the mathematical computations concerning the adequacy of the
maturing principal amounts of and interest earned on the Government Obligations, to be placed together with other
escrowed money in the escrow account to pay when due, pursuant to the call for redemption, the principal of and
interest on the Refunded Bonds. The verification will also confirm the mathematical computations supporting the
conclusion of Bond Counsel that the Bonds are not "arbitrage bonds" as defined by Section 148 of the Internal Revenue
Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code").
SECURITY AND SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE BONDS
Pledge of Revenues of the Waterworks Utility
The Bonds are special fund obligations of the City, payable from and secured by Gross Revenue of the Waterworks
Utility subject only to the payment of Maintenance and Operation Expense ("Net Revenue") on a parity of lien with the
City’s Outstanding Parity Bonds and any Future Parity Bonds.
"Gross Revenue" is defined in the Bond Ordinance to mean all of the earnings and revenues received by the City from
the maintenance and operation of the Waterworks Utility and all earnings from the investment of money in the Reserve
Fund or any Parity Bond Fund, and connection and capital improvement charges collected for the purpose of defraying
the cost of capital facilities of the Waterworks Utility, except government grants, proceeds from the sale of Waterworks
Utility property (other than timber), City taxes collected by or through the Waterworks Utility, principal proceeds of
bonds and earnings or proceeds from any investments in a trust, defeasance or escrow fund created to defease or refund
Waterworks Utility obligations (until commingled with other earnings and revenues of the Waterworks Utility) or held
in a special account for the purpose of paying a rebate to the United States Government under the Code.
"Maintenance and Operation Expense". is defined in the Bond Ordinance to mean all reasonable expenses incurred by
the City in causing the Waterworks Utility to be operated and maintained in good repair, working order and condition,
including payments made to any other municipal corporation or private entity for water service and for sewage
treatment and disposal service or other utility service in the event the City combines such service in the Waterworks
Utility and enters into a contract for such service, and including pro-rata budget charges for the City’s administration
expenses where those represent a reasonable distribution and share of actual costs, but not including any depreciation or
taxes levied or imposed by the City or payments to the City in lieu of taxes, or capital additions or capital replacements
to the Waterworks Utility.
The Bonds are not general obligations of the City, and neither the full faith and credit nor the taxing power of
the City or of the State, nor any revenues of the City derived from sources other than the Waterworks Utility,
are pledged to the payment thereof.
Flow of Funds
Gross Revenue of the Waterworks Utility will be deposited into the Waterworks Utility Fund (the "Waterworks Utility
Fund"). Gross Revenue on deposit in the Waterworks Utility Fund (other than in any bond redemption or federal rebate
account) will be held separate and apart from all other funds and accounts of the City and will be used in the following
order of priority:
(1)To pay Maintenance and Operation Expense;
(2)To pay the interest on the Parity Bonds, including reimbursements to the issuer of a Credit Facility if
the Credit Facility secures the payment of interest on Parity Bonds and the ordinance authorizing such
Parity Bonds provides for such reimbursement;
(3)To pay the principal of the Parity Bonds, including reimbursements to the issuer of a Credit Facility if
the Credit Facility secures the payment of principal on Parity Bonds and the ordinance authorizing
such Parity Bonds provides for such reimbursement;
(4)To make all payments required to be made into any sinking fund or bond redemption fund hereafter
created for the payment of Future Parity Bonds which are Term Bonds;
(5)To make all payments required to be made into the Reserve Fund, including any reimbursements
required for Qualified Insurance or Qualified Letter of Credit;
(6)To make all payments required to be made into any revenue bond redemption fund or warrant
redemption fund and debt service account or reserve account created to pay and secure the payment of
the principal of and interest on any revenue bonds or revenue warrants of the City having a !ien upon
Gross Revenue junior and inferior to the lien thereon for the payment of the principal of and interest
on the Parity Bonds; and
(7)To retire by optional redemption or purchase any outstanding revenue bonds or revenue warrants of
the City, to make necessary additions, betterments, improvements and repairs to or extensions and
replacements of the Waterworks Utility, to make deposits into the Rate Stabilization Fund, or for any
other lawful City purpose.
Rate Covenant
The City has pledged in the Bond Ordinance that it will establish, maintain and collect rates and charges for all services
and facilities provided by the Waterworks Utility which will be fair and nondiscriminatory, and will adjust those rates
and charges from time to time so that:
(1)Gross Revenue will at all times be sufficient to (A) pay all Maintenance and Operation Expense on a
current basis, (B) pay when due all amounts that the City is obligated to pay into the Reserve Fund
and any Parity Bond Funds and (C) pay all taxes, assessments or other governmental charges lawfully
imposed upon the Waterworks Utility or other revenue therefrom or payments in lieu thereof and any
and all other amounts which the City may now or hereafter become obligated to pay from Gross
Revenue by law or contract; and
(2)Net Revenue in each calendar year will be at least equal to the Coverage Requirement.
Coverage Requirement prior to the New Covenant Date (defined in the Bond Ordinance to be at the time the 1998
Bonds, the 2002 Bonds, the 2003 Bonds and the 2004 Bonds are no longer outstanding, which is currently expected to
occur on December 1, 2014) is defined in the Bond Ordinance to mean in any calendar year 1.25 times the Maximum
Annual Debt Service. From and aRer the New Covenant Date, the term Coverage Requirement is defined in the Bond
Ordinance to mean in any calendar year 1.25 times the Annual Debt Service for such year.
Funds and Accounts
BondFund. The City has created the Bond Fund, which has been designated as a "Parity Bond Fund" and a subaccount
of the Waterworks Utility Fund, for the purpose of paying the principal of and interest on the Bonds. As long as any
Bonds remain outstanding, the City has irrevocably obligated and bound itself to set aside and pay from the Waterworks
Utility Fund into the Bond Fund those amounts necessary, together with such other funds as are on hand and available
in the Bond Fund, to pay the interest or principal and interest next coming due on outstanding Bonds. Such payments
from the Waterworks Utility Fund to the Bond Fund will be made in a fixed amount without regard to any fixed
proportion following the closing and delivery of the Bonds on or before each date on which an installment of interest or
principal and interest falls due on the Bonds equal to the installment of interest or principal and interest.
Reserve Fund. The Waterworks Revenue Bond Reserve Fund (the "Reserve Fund") has previously been created by the
City for purpose of securing the payment of the principal of and interest on all bonds to which Net Revenue is pledged.
The City covenants and agrees in the Bond Ordinance that on or prior to the date of issuance of the Bonds, the amount
on deposit in the Reserve Fund will be at least equal to the Reserve Requirement.
The "Reserve Requirement" is currently def’med as Maximum Annual Debt Service which means, at the time of
calculation, the maximum amount of annual debt service that will mature or come due in the current calendar year or
any future calendar year on the outstanding Parity Bonds. After the New Covenant Date, the term "Reserve
Requirement" with respect to any issue of Parity Bonds will mean the lesser of (a) Maximum Annual Debt Service on
all Outstanding Parity Bonds and (b) 125% of average Annual Debt Service on all Outstanding Parity Bonds; provided,
that the amount required to be deposited with respect to any Future Parity Bonds in order to meet the Reserve
Requirement will not exceed 10% of the net proceeds of such Future Parity Bonds under the Code.
¯ As of October 1, 2012, the City had $3,648,589 in Qualified Insurance in the form of a surety policy (the "Surety
Policy") from Financial Guaranty Insurance Company ("FGIC") delivered in connection with the issuance of the 2007
Bonds, 2008A Bonds, and 2008B Bonds. The Surety Policy originally issued by FGIC has been reinsured by National
Public Finance Guaranty Corp. and will terminate on the earlier of the scheduled final maturity date of the 2007 Bonds,
2008A Bonds, and 2008B Bonds (December 1, 2027) or the date on which no 2007 Bonds, 2008A Bonds, and 2008B
Bonds are deemed outstanding. The City intends to deposit $ from available funds of the City into the
Reserve Fund at the time of issuance of the Bonds. Such amounts will be sufficient to satisfy the Reserve Requirement
on the date of issuance of the Bonds ($ ).
Except for withdrawals therefrom as authorized herein, the Reserve Fund shall be maintaineod at the Reserve
Requirement at all times so long as any Parity Bonds are Outstanding. When the total amount in the Bond Fund shall
equal the total amount of principal and interest for all outstanding Bonds, no further payment need be made into the
Bond Fund. Notwithstanding the first sentence of this paragraph, the Reserve Requirement may be decreased for any
issue of Parity Bonds when and to the extent the City has redeemed or otherwise defeased any Outstanding Parity
Bonds.
If there shall be a deficiency in the Bond Fund to meet maturing installments of either principal or interest, as the case
may be, on the Bonds, that deficiency shall be made up from the Reserve Fund by the withdrawal of cash therefrom for
that purpose and after all cash has been depleted, then by draws on the Qualified Insurance or Qualified Letter of Credit
for that purpose. Any deficiency created in the Reserve Fund by reason of any such withdrawal shall then be made up
from Net Revenue first available after making necessary provisions for the required payments into the Bond Fund. Any
money in the Reserve Fund in excess of the Reserve Requirement may be withdrawn and deposited in any Parity Bond
Fund and spent for the purpose of retiring Parity Bonds or may be deposited in any other fund and spent for any other
lawful Waterworks Utility purpose.
The City may provide for the purchase, redemption or defeasance of Parity Bonds by the use of money on deposit in the
Bond Fund or the Reserve Fund as long as the money remaining in those funds is sufficient to satisfy the required
deposits in those funds for the remaining Parity Bonds.
All money in the Bond Fund or Reserve Fund may be kept in cash or on deposit in the official bank depository of the
City or in any national bank or may be invested in any legal investment for City funds. Interest on any of those
investments or on that bank account shall be deposited in the Reserve Fund until the total Reserve Requirement shall
have been accumulated therein, after which time the interest shall be deposited in any Parity Bond Fund.
Notwithstanding the provisions for the deposit or maintenance of earnings in the Bond Fund or the Reserve Fund, the
City also may transfer out of the Bond Fund or Reserve Fund any money required in order to prevent any Parity Bonds
from becoming "arbitrage bonds" under the Code.
Rate Stabilization Fund. The City has previously created a Waterworks Rate Stabilization Fund (the "Rate Stabilization
Fund"). The City may, at any time, deposit Gross Revenue into the Rate Stabilization Fund, excluding principal
proceeds of Parity Bonds or other borrowing. The City may withdraw any or all of the money from the Rate
Stabilization Fund for inclusion in Gross Revenue for any fiscal year of the City. Such deposits or withdrawals may be
made up to and including the date 90 days after the end of the fiscal year for which the deposit or withdrawal will be
included in Gross Revenue. No deposit of Gross Revenue will be made into the Rate Stabilization Fund to the extent
that such deposit would prevent the City from meeting the Coverage Requirement. The Rate Stabilization Fund is
currently unfunded.
Additional Covenants
So long as any Parity Bonds are outstanding, the City has covenanted and agreed as follows:
Maintenance and Repair. It will at all times maintain and keep the Waterworks Utility in good repair, working order
and condition and also will at all times operate such Utility and the business in connection therewith in an efficient
manner and at a reasonable cost.
Disposal of Waterworks Utility. It will not sell, lease, mortgage or in any manner encumber or otherwise dispose of
the Waterworks Utility in its entirety unless, simultaneously with such sale or other disposition, all Party Bonds are
defeased pursuant to the provisions of the Bond Ordinance. See Appendix A for certain requirements relating to
disposal of all or a portion of the Waterworks Utility.
Books and Records. It will keep proper books, records and accounts with respect to the operations, income and
expenditures of the Waterworks Utility in accordance with proper accounting procedures and any applicable rules and
regulations prescribed by the State. It will prepare annual fmancial and operating statements within 270 days of the
close of each fiscal year showing in reasonable detail the financial condition of the Waterworks Utility as of the close of
the previous year, and the income and expenses for such year, including the amounts paid into the Bond Fund and
Reserve Fund and ~to any and all special funds or accounts created pursuant to the Bond Ordinance, the status of all
funds and accounts as of the end of such year, and the amounts expended for maintenance, renewals, replacements and
capital additions to the Waterworks Utility.
No Free Service. Except to aid the poor or infLrm, to provide for resource conservation or to provide for the proper
handling of hazardous materials, it will not furnish or supply or permit the furnishing or supplying of any service or
facility in connection with the operation of the Waterworks Utility free of charge to any person, firm or corporation,
public or private, other than the City, so long as any Parity Bonds are outstanding. On at least an annual basis, it will
determine all accounts that are delinquent and will take all necessary action to enforce payment of such accounts against
those property owners whose accounts are delinquent.
Insurance. It at all times will carry fire and extended coverage and such other forms of insurance, including public
liability and property damage insurance, with responsible insurers and with policies payable to or on behalf of the City
and any additional insureds on such of the buildings, equipment, works, plants, facilities and properties of the
Waterworks Utility, and against such claims for damages, as are ordinarily carded by municipal or privately owned
utilities engaged in the operation of like systems, or will implement and maintain a self-insurance or an insurance pool
program with reserves adequate, in the reasonable judgment of the City, to protect the Waterworks Utility and the
Owners of the Parity Bonds against loss.
Maintenance and Operation Expense. It will pay all Maintenance and Operation Expense and the debt service
requirements for the outstanding Parity Bonds, and otherwise meet the obligations of the City as herein set forth.
Tax Covenants. It will undertake all actions required to maintain the tax-exempt status of interest on the Bonds under
Section 103 of the Code.
Future Parity Bonds
In the Bond Ordinance the City reserves the right to issue Future Parity Bonds which will constitute a lien and charge on the
Net Revenue of the Waterworks Utility on a parity with the Outstanding Parity Bonds and the Bonds, if the following
conditions are met and complied with at the time of issuance of the Future Parity Bonds:
(1)There is no deficiency in any Parity Bond Fund.
(2)The ordinance providing for the issuance of such Future Parity Bonds provides for the payment of the
principal thereof and interest thereon out of a Parity Bond Fund.
(3)The ordinance providing for the issuance of such Future Parity Bonds shall provide for the deposit into the
Reserve Fund from the proceeds of those Future Parity Bonds of (1) an amount equal to the increase in
the Reserve Requirement attributable to those Parity Bonds or (2) Qualified Letter of Credit or Qualified
Insurance or an amount plus Qualified Letter of Credit or Qualified Insurance equal to the increase in the
Reserve Requirement attributable to those Future Parity Bonds. At the discretion of the City, the City
may provide for deposit into the Reserve Fund of other legally available money from Net Revenue or
Qualified Letter of Credit or Qualified Insurance on or prior to the date of issuance of such Future Parity
Bonds.
The ordinance authorizing the issuance of such Future Party Bonds shall provide for the payment of
mandatory redemption or sinking fund requirements into the applicable Parity Bond Fund for any Term
Bonds to be issued and for regular payments to be made for the payment of the principal of such Term
Bonds on or before their maturity, or, as an alternative, the mandatory redemption of those Term Bonds
prior to their maturity date from money in the applicable Parity Bond Fund.
(5)There will be on file with the City either:
(a)a certificate of the Finance Director demonstrating that Net Revenue for the Base Period,
without regard to deposits into or withdrawals from the Rate Stabilization Fund, is equal to at
least the Parity Requirement; or
(b)prior to the New Covenant Date, a certificate of a Professional Utility Consultant that in such
Consultant’s opinion, Net Revenue for any 12 consecutive calendar months, without regard
to deposits into or withdrawals from the Rate Stabilization Fund, shall be equal to at least the
Parity Requirement. After the New Covenant Date, this section shall be amended to read as
follows: a certificate of a Professional Utility Consultant that in such Consultant’s opinion
Net Revenue for the Base Period, as adjusted, without regard to deposits into or withdrawals
from the Rate Stabilization Fund, shall be equal to at least the Parity Requirement. The
Professional Utility Consultant, in estimating Net Revenue available for debt services, may
adjust Net Revenue to reflect:
(A)Any changes in rates in effect and being charged or expressly committed
by ordinance to be made in the future;
Income derived from customers of the Waterworks Utility who have
become customers during the 12 consecutive month period or theroafter
adjusted to reflect one year’s Net Revenue from those customers;
(c)Income from any customers to be connected to the Waterworks Utility who
have paid the required connection charges;
(D)The Professional Utility Consultant’s estimate of the Net Revenue to be
derived from customers anticipated to connect for whom building permits
have been issued;
Income received or to be received which is derived from any person, firm
corporation or municipal corporation under any executed contract for
water, sewage disposal or other utility service, which revenue was not
included in the historical Net Revenue;
The Professional Utility Consultant’s estimate of the Net Revenue to be
derived from customers with existing homes or buildings which will be
required to connect to any additions to and improvements and extensions
of the Waterworks Utility constructed and to be paid for out of the
proceeds of the sale of the additional Future Parity Bonds or other
additions to and improvements and extensions of the Waterworks Utility
when such additions, improvements and extensions are not completed; and
Any increases or decrease in Net Revenue as a result of any actual or
reasonably anticipated changes in Maintenance and Operation Expense
subsequent to the 12-month period.
Refunding Obligations. If Future Parity Bonds proposed to be so issued are for the sole purpose of refunding outstanding
bonds payable from any Parity Bond Fund, such certification of coverage will not be required if the amount required for the
payment of the principal and interest in each year for the refunding bonds is not increased more than $5,000 over the amount
for that same year required for the bonds or the portion of that bond issue to be refunded thereby and if the maturities of such
refunding bonds are not extended beyond the maturities of the bonds to be refunded thereby.
Furthermore, nothing contained in the Bond Ordinance prevents the City from issuing Future Parity Bonds to refund
maturing Parity Bonds, money for the payment of which is not otherwise available.
Junior Lien Obligations
The City has reserved the right to issue revenue bonds oi" other obligations which would be a charge upon Gross
Revenue subordinate to that of any Outstanding Parity Bonds. As of October 1, 2012, the City had approximately
$5,538,927 in outstanding subordinate lien debt. See "DEBT INFORMATION--Subordinate Lien Obligations."
No Acceleration
A Bondowner cannot require acceleration of debt service on the Bonds upon the occurrence of an event of default.

Debt Pa~nent Record
The City has promptly met all debt service payments on outstanding obligations. No refunding bonds have been issued
to avoid an impending default.
Future Financing
Other than the Bonds, the City has no authorized but unissued bonds secured by Gross Revenues outstanding. The City
does not expect to issue bonds secured by Gross Revenues in the next 12 months.
THE WATERWORKS UTILITY
The Waterworks Utility of the City is comprised of three divisions: the Water Utility, the Wastewater Utility and the
Storm Drainage Utility. The City maintains separate fund accounting for the three divisions to facilitate financial
management, but has combined the divisions for financing purposes into the Waterworks Utility.
The Water Utility
Description. The Water Utility provides water service for fire protection and for domestic uses to an area of 17.11
square miles within the City limits. As of October 1, 2012, the Water Utility served approximately 17,728 customer
accounts, and a population of 55,296. The City also supplies water on a wholesale basis to a portion of the Skyway
Water and Sewer District through a single metered connection. Water service within certain areas of the City is also
provided by the Soos Creek Water and Sewer District, the Coal Creek Utility District, the Cedar River Water and Sewer
District, and King County Water District #90.
The City’s water system consists of nine water supply sources, ten reservoirs with 22 million gallons of storage, 12
pump stations, two water treatment facilities, 305 miles of water mains, 3,644 fire hydrants and 17,370 water meters.
Water treatment consists of chlorination, fluoridation and corrosion control for all active production wells, along with
the removal of manganese, hydrogen sulfide, and ammonia from the raw water from the Maplewood wells.
The City’s own water supply sources include eight active wells and one emergency well, drawing water from the Cedar
Valley aquifer; three wells from the Maplewood aquifer; and one artesian spring, Springbrook Springs. The wells
provide 83 percent of the City’s water production. In addition, the City maintains ten metered water supply interties
with Seattle Public Utilities, one emergency intertie with the City of Kent, one emergency intertie with the City of
Tukwila and one emergency intertie with the Skyway Water and Sewer District. Together, active, standby and
emergency wells provide 19,450 gallons per minute ("GPM") or 28 million gallons per day ("MGD"). Interties with
Seattle Public Utilities and emergency interties with neighboring cities and water districts can provide 13,200 GPM or
19.1 MGD.
In 2011, the maximum demand for water was 12.5 MGD and the average day demand was 6.8 MGD. Based on growth
forecasts, the City believes that it has sufficient on-line supply capacity to meet demands through at least 2018, or to
2034 with the practice of water conservation efforts. In 2011, the City entered into a fifty year supply agreement with
the City of Seattle that will allow the City access to the City of Seattle water supply sufficient to accommodate all
projected growth through 2061.

Data in table reflects billings for the Water Utility. Actual receipts may vary. See "Financial Statements"
below. Totals may not foot due to rounding.
The City modified its rate structure in 2008 in effort to more accurately reflect cost of services and encourage
conservation. Irrigation use was reclassified and consumption became subject to the highest rate tier. Single
family rates changed from a two-tiered system to a three-tiered system, with higher incremental rates for the
third-tier and a lower base tier rate. As a result of this structural change, the average single family billing
decreased by approximately 19% and the irrigation billing increased.
Includes hydrants and wholesale water provided to the Skyway Water and Sewer District.

Water Utility Rates and Charges. Water rates for metered services inside the City are established in order to charge
service accounts for the amount of water used plus a monthly service charge determined by the size of the waterline
serving the premises.
The City updates its rate model every other year, in conjunction with its biennial budget process, to determine rate
adjustments necessary to maintain the Waterworks Utility. The City adopted a set of financial policies for its
Waterworks Utility in 2010 to reduce the reliance of debt financing of future system replacements. As a result, there
was a water rate increase of 18 percent in 2011 and 16 percent in 2012. The City is proposing to raise rates an
additional five percent in 2013 and five percent in 2014. The proposed rate increases are currently being considered by
the City Council and if approved, will take effect on January 1 in the respective years. The following table shows the
historical rate increases for the Water Utility.

The Wastewater Utility
Description. The Wastewater Utility system collects wastewater from residential and commercial customers and
delivers it to King County Metro ("Metro") for treatment. The agreement between Metro and the City will terminate on
July 1, 2056 with optional extensions. The existing system consists of 215 miles of wastewater pipelines, 20 lift
stations and an additional 15 lift stations which are privately owned and maintained. Wastewater is discharged into
facilities within the City, from which it is conveyed to and treated by the Metro’s South Treatment Plant.’
Approximately 75 percent of the City is served by the Wastewater Utility system. Another 15 percent is served by other
sewer districts with the remaining area within the City is served by septic tanks or is undeveloped. The City also serves
customers outside of the City limits, which includes 106 residential accounts.
Wastewater Utility Customers. As of January 1, 2012, the City provided wastewater service to approximately 17,132
customer accounts, 86 percent of which were residential. Customer data and usage by class for the last five years is
presented below.

Wastewater Utility Rates and Charges. As discussed under "The Water Utility" above, the City updates its rate model
each year to determine rate adjustments to maintain the Waterworks Utility. The City adopted a set of financial policies
for its utility system in 2010 to reduce the reliance of debt financing of future system replacements. As a result, rates
increased 42 percent in 2011 and an additional five percent in 2012. The City is proposing to raise rates an additional
five percent in 2013 and five percent in 2014. The proposed rate increases are currently being considered by the City
Council and, if approved, will take effect on January 1 of the respective years. The following table shows the historical
rate increases for the Wastewater Utility.

Storm Drainage Utility
Description. The Storm Drainage Utility system covers a service area within the existing City corporate boundaries of
approximately 23.8 square miles. The area includes rivers, streams, ditches, lakes, wetlands and manmade facilities.
The Storm Drainage Utility owns, maintains and operates all storm and surface water facilities located within public
fight-of-ways, tracts, and easements dedicated for storm and surface water management purposes. The Storm Drainage
Utility system consists of 276 miles of storm system pipe, includes 10,991 catch basins, 4,070 access manholes, 100
storm water retention!detention facilities and 24.7 miles of ditch systems and channels.
PotentialAnnexation. On November 6, 2012, voters in the West Hill community will be asked to consider a proposition
of whether the West Hill community should be annexed into the City or remain part of unincorporated King County.
The West Hill community is a 1,857-acre or 2.9 square mile area bordering Lake Washington to the northeast, the City
of Seattle to the north, the City of Tukwila to the south, and the City to the southeast. It has an estimated population of
18
15,853 in seven neighborhoods, including Bryn Mawr, Lakeridge, Skyway, Campbell Hill, Panorama, Skycrest, and
Hill Top.
If the annexation is approved, the area would receive general governmental services from the City, such as police, fire,
permits, and street maintenance services upon a to be determined effective date. The City would also be responsible for
providing storm drainage services to the area. Water and sewer services in the area are currently provided by Seattle
Public Utilities and the Skyway Water and Sewer District and would likely continue after annexation.
Storm Drainage Utility Customers. As of January 1, 2012, the City provided storm drainage service to approximately
22,827 customers of which approximately 92 percent were single family residential. Customer data by class for the last
five years is presented below, as well as current revenues of the Storm Drainage Utility.

City began providing storm drainage services to the annexed area, but water and sewer services continued to be
provided by the Soos Creek Water and Sewer District.

Waterworks Utility Capital Improvement Plan
The City regularly identifies additional capital needs of the Waterworks Utility based on factors that may include
expected growth and fmancial priority. Rapid residential and commercial growth has prompted the City to plan for
expansion of its Waterworks Utility capacity. The plan also accounts for projects required to meet current regulatory
requirements.
The City updates its six-year Capital Improvement Plan ("CH’") every two years. The latest CIP outlines proposed
enhancement and development for the Waterworks Utility for the years 2012-2017. Per City policy, all capital
improvements to the existing system will be fully funded through utility rates and charges and will not be fmanced with
debt. Additions to the Waterworks Utility may be funded with proceeds of Future Parity Bonds or subordinate lien
obligations.

Utility Billing and Delinquent Accounts
The Utility Billing division under the direction of the Administrative Services Department provides customer service,
billing and revenue collections for the Waterworks Utility. Utility bills are generated monthly and due 25 days later. If
the charges billed are not paid within the 20 day period from the due date, such charges become delinquent. If an
account is delinquent, the City will assess a penalty to the account and enforce collections. The City’s ability to collect
on delinquent accounts is controlled by State law and the Renton Municipal. Code. Remedies include, but are not
limited to, providing notice, charging fees and interest on unpaid charges for service, terminating water service, and
placing a lien for unpaid charges against premises to which such service has been furnished or is available. Such lien is
superior to all other liens or encumbrances, except those for general taxes and special assessments, and may be
foreclosed by the City in the manner provided by law, in addition to all other available remedies.
Permitting and Regulatory
The City’s Waterworks Utility is in compliance with known regulations and applicable permits. The City’s existing
National Pollution Discharge Elimination System ("N-PDES") Permit was issued on January 17, 2007, by the
Washington State Department of Ecology under the provisions of the U.S. Enviroumentai Protection Agency’s Clean
Water Act. The City’s NPDES permit regulates stormwater discharges from municipally owned or operated stormwater
systems in the City. Federal and state water quality laws require a permit for the discharge of stormwater and requires
public entities to control discharge of pollutants to protect surface water. The City meets this requirement through
inspections and enforcement to prevent and control stormwater impacts, public education regarding good stormwater
management practices, operation and maintenance of the municipal stormwater system, and stormwater monitoring and
reporting, among others.
The City’s Water Utility is subject to an annual operating permit issued by the Washington State Department of Health.
The City’s permit is current and holds a "green" status (fully compliant). To maintain "green" status the City must
remain fully compliant with all Safe Drinking Water Act requirements. The City currently does not have any concerns
regarding the City’s ability to renew its annual permit or remain in "green" status.
Endangered Species Act
In planning future projects, the City evaluates the construction and operation of the facilities to determine if there will
be any impact on endangered species through the use of site evaluations, special environmental studies, and preparation
of State Environmental Policy Act ("SEPA") checklists or environmental impact statements, as appropriate.
Alternatives are developed to minimize or avoid impacts on endangered species. Where federal permits or funding are
involved, the City also complies with the Endangered Species Act’s "consultation" requirement, which serves to
evaluate and address any potential effect on endangered species. Best management practices are employed during
routine operation and maintenance activities to minimize impacts on the environment.

Pension Funding
Substantially all of these employees ar6 enrolled in the State of Washington Public Employees Retirement System
("PERS"), the Law Enforcement Officers and Fire Fighters Retirement System ("LEOFF") and the Public Safety
Employees’ Retirement System ("PSERS"). Contributions by both employees and employers are based on gross wages.
PERS and LEOFF participants who joined the system by September 30, 1977 are Plan 1 members. Those PERS
participants who joined on or after October 1, 1977 are Plan 2 members, unless they choose the option to join Plan 3.
PERS Plan 3 is a hybrid of a deferred contribution and defined benefit plan effective September 1, 2002. PSERS was
created by the 2004 legislature and became effective July 1, 2006. The City contributed $1,802,877 to PERS,
$1,334,543 to LEOFF and $21,518 to PSERS in 2011 for all of the City’s employees that are covered under PERS,
LEOFF, and PSERS.
The following tables outline the contribution rates of employees and employers under PERS, LEOFF and PSERS.

According to the Office of the State Actuary, as of June 30, 2008, PERS Plans 2 and 3 had no unfunded actuarial
accrued liability. However, during the years 2001 through 2009 the rates adopted by the State Legislature were lower
than those that would have been required to produce actuarially required contributions to PERS Plan 1, a closed plan
with a large proportion of the retirees. According to a report issued by the Office of the State Actuary in September
2012, and subject to the assumptions therein, the total unfunded actuaxial accrued liability of PERS Plan 1 is $3.684
billion (71% funded on an actuarial basis) as of June 30, 2011. In 2005 and 2006, the State Legislature enacted and
authorized the State Pension Funding Council to adopt changes in contribution rates to PERS intended to amortize the
PERS Plan 1 unfunded actuarial accrued liability by 2024. The contribution rates effective July 1, 2011 and September
26
1, 2011, include a component of 2.16% and 2.34%, respectively, dedicated to amortizing the local government share of
the PERS Plan 1 unfunded actuarial accrued liability, and a component of 0.16% for administrative expenses. These
rates are subject to change by future legislation enacted by the State Legislature to address future changes in actuarial
and economic assumptions and investment performance.
While the City’s contributions in 2011 represent its full current liability under the systems, any unfunded pension
benefit obligations could be reflected in future years as higher contribution rates. It is expected that the contribution
rates for employees and employers in the PERS 2 and 3 will increase.
Information regarding all of these plans is presented in Washington State’s Department of Retirement Systems’ annual
financial report. A copy of this report may be obtained at:

Fireman’s Pension
The Firefighter’s Pension Plan is a closed, single-employer, defined benefit pension plan established in accordance with
chapter 41.18 RCW and the Renton Municipal Code. This plan provides retirement and disability benefits, annual cost-
of-living adjustments, and death benefits to plan members and beneficiaries. This system was established for
firefighters employed prior to March 1, 1970, when the LEOFF retirement system was established. The retirement
benefits vest after 20 years of service. Members may retire after 25 years of service regardless of age, and after age 50
with 20 or more years for service. At December 31,2011, there were 34 members in this system.
Under Washington State law, the Firefighter’s Pension Plan is provided an allocation of all moneys received by the
State from taxes on ftre insurance premiums; interest earnings; member contributions made prior to the inception of
LEOFF; and City contributions required to meet projected future pension obligations. An actuarial valuation is
completed every two years, most recently as of January 1, 2011. As of December 31, 2011, the plan’s net pension
obligation was overfunded by $1,934,381 and is recorded as a non-current asset on the City’s Government-wide
Statement of net Assets.
Information regarding all of the City pension plans is presented in the City’s annual fmancial report. See Appendix C.
Other Post-Employment Benefits
In accordance with chapter 41.26 RCW, the City provides lifetime medical care for members of LEOFF retirement
system hired prior to October 1, 1977. The plan is a closed, single-employer def’med benefit healthcare plan
administered by the City. As of December 31, 2011, there were 96 retirees and three active employees. The City’s
annual other postemployment benefit ("OPEB") cost is calculated based on the annual required contribution ("ARC"),
an amount actuarially determined in accordance with the parameters of GASB Statement 45.
The ARC represents a level of funding that, if paid on an ongoing basis, is projected to cover the normal cost each year
and to amortize any unfunded actuarial liabilities over a period not to exceed thirty years. The following table shows
the components of the City’s annual OPEB cost for the year, the amount actually contributed to the plan, and changes in
the City’s net OPEB obligation.

As of December 31,2011 the City had $5.3 million in net assets in a self-insurance fund set aside to fund the net OPEB
obligation. Although this money is not held in trust, the fund has been created to accumulate resources to fulfill the
City’s OPEB obligations.
Authorized Investments
General. Chapter 35.39 RCW limits the investment by a city of its inactive funds or other funds in excess of current
needs to the following authorized investments: United States bonds; United States certificates of indebtedness; bonds or
warrants of the State and any local government in the State; its own bonds or warrants of a local improvement district
which are within the protection of the local improvement guaranty fund law; and any other investment authorized by
law for any other taxing district or the State Treasurer. Under chapter 43.84 RCW, the State Treasurer may invest in
non-negotiable certificates of deposit in designated qualified public depositories; in obligations of the U.S. government,
its agencies and wholly owned corporations; in bankers’ acceptances; in commercial paper; in the obligations of the
federal home loan bank, federal national mortgage association and other government corporations subject to statutory
provisions and may enter into repurchase agreements. Utility revenue bonds and warrants of any city and bonds or
warrants of a local improvement district are also eligible investments (RCW 35.39.030).
Money available for investment may be invested on an individual fund basis or may, unless otherwise restricted by law,
be commingled within one common investment portfolio. All income derived from such investment may be either
apportioned to and used by the various participating funds or for the benefit of the general government in accordance
28
with city ordinances or resolutions. Funds derived from the sale of bonds or other instruments of indebtedness will be
invested or used in such manner as the authorizing ordinances, resolutions or bond covenants may lawfully prescribe.
Local Government Investment Pool. The State Treasurer’s Office administers the Washington State Local Government
Investment Pool (the "LGIP"), which invests money on behalf of more than 460 cities, counties and special taxing
districts. In its management of LGIP, the State Treasurer is required to adhere, at all times, to the principles appropriate
for the prudent investment of public funds. These principles are, in order of priority, (i) the safety of principal; (ii) the
assurance of sufficient liquidity to meet cash flow demands; and (iii) the attainment of the highest possible yield within
the constraints of the first two goals. Historically, the LG~P has had sufficient liquidity to meet all cash flow demands.
The LGIP, authorized by chapter 43.250 RCW, is a voluntary pool which provides its participants the opportunity to
benefit from the economies of scale inherent in pooling. It is also intended to offer participants increased safety of
principal and the ability to achieve a higher investment yield than would otherwise be available to them. The pool is
restricted to investments with maturities of one year or less, and the average life typically is less than 90 days.
Investments permitted under the pool’s guidelines include U.S. government and agency securities, bankers’
acceptances, high quality commercial paper, repurchase and reverse repurchase agreements, motor vehicle fund
warrants, and certificates of deposit issued by qualified Washington State depositories.
As of October 1, 2012, the City’s investments at cost totaled $40,589,122 of which 25 percent was invested in the
LGIP, 63 percent was invested in certificates of deposit, and 12 percent was invested in US Federal Agency Securities.
Authorized lnvestments for Bond Proceeds. In addition to the eligible investments discussed above, bond proceeds may
also be invested in mutual funds with portfolios consisting of U.S. government and guaranteed agency securities with
average maturities of less than four years; municipal securities rated in one of the four highest categories; and money
market funds consisting of the same, so long as municipal securities held in the fund(s) are in one of the two highest
rating categories of a nationally recognized rating agency. Bond proceeds may also be invested in shares of money
market funds with portfolios of securities otherwise authorized by law for investment by local governments.
Budgetary Policies
The City budgets it funds in accordance with chapter 35A.33 RCW. Biennial appropriated budgets are adopted for the
general, special revenue, debt service, and capital projects funds on the cash basis of accounting and include fund
balances. Although not statutodly required, all proprietary funds are budgeted at the fund level as part of the biennial
budget process. The City provides a reconciliation of the differences between the budgetary basis and GAAP each year
in its Comprehensive Annual Financial Report.
The City Council adopts a biennial budget by ordinance establishing appropriations for City funds, and during the
biennium they may authorize supplemental appropriations. Administrative and legal budgetary control is established at
the fund level, i.e., expenditures for a fund may not exceed the total appropriation amount. The Mayor or Chief
Administrative Officer may authorize transfers of appropriations within a fund however interfund transfers must be
approved by ordinance of the Council.
Risk Management
The City is a member of the Washington Cities Insurance Authority ("WCIA"). Utilizing chapter 48.62 RCW (self-
insurance regulation) and chapter 39.34 RCW (the Interlocal Cooperation Act), nine cities originally formed WCIA on
January 1, 1981. WCIA was created for the purpose of providing a pooling mechanism for jointly purchasing
insurance, jointly self-insuring, and!or jointly contracting for risk management services. WCIA has a total of 150
members.
New members initially contract for a three-year term, and thereafter automatically renew on an annual basis. A one-
year withdrawal notice is required before membership can be terminated. Termination does not relieve a former
member from its unresolved loss history incurred during membership.
Liability coverage is written on an occurrence basis, without deductibles. Coverage includes general, automobile,
police, public officials’ errors or omissions, stop gap, and employee benefits liability. Limits are $4 million per
occurrence self-insured layer, and $16 million per occurrence in the re-insured excess layer. The excess layer is insured
29
by the purchase of reinsurance and insurance. Total limits are $20 million per occurrence subject to aggregate sublimits
in the excess layers. The WCIA Board of Directors determines the limits and terms of coverage annually.
Insurance coverage for property, automobile physical damage, fidelity, inland marine, and boiler and machinery are
purchased on a group basis. Various deductibles apply by type of coverage. Property insurance and auto physical
damage are self-funded from the members’ deductible to $500,000, for all perils other than flood and earthquake, and
insured above that amount by the purchase of reinsurance. In-house services include risk management consultation,
loss control field services, claims and litigation administration, and loss analyses. WCIA contracts for the claims
investigation consultants for personnel issues and land use problems, insurance brokerage, and lobbyist services.
WCIA is fully funded by its members, who make annual assessments on a prospectively rated basis, as determined by
an outside, independent actuary. The assessment covers loss, loss adjustment, and administrative expenses. As outlined
in the Interlocal Cooperation Act, WCIA retains the right to additionally assess the membership for any funding
shortfall.
An investment committee, using investment brokers, produces additional revenue by investment of WCIA’s assets in
fmancial instruments which comply with all State guidelines. These revenues directly offset portions of the
membership’s annual assessment.
A Board of Directors governs WCIA, which is comprised of one designated representative from each member. The
Board elects an Executive Committee and appoints a Treasurer to provide general policy direction for the organization.
The WCIA Executive Director reports to the Executive Committee and is responsible for conducting the day to day
operations of WCIA.
Auditing of City Finances
Accounting systems and budgetary controls are prescribed by the Office of the State Audito~r in accordance with
RCW 43.09.200 and RCW 43.09.230. State statutes require audits for cities the size of the City to be conducted by the
Office of the State Auditor. The City complies with the systems and controls prescribed by the Office of the. State
Auditor and establishes procedures and records which reasonably assure safeguarding of assets and the reliability of
financial reporting.
The State Auditor is required to examine the affairs of cities at least once every two years, however the City requests
annual audits. The examination must include, among other things, the financial condition and resources of the City,
whether the laws and constitution of the State are being complied with, and the methods and accuracy of the accounts
and reports of the City. Reports of the auditor’s examinations are required to be filed in the office of the State Auditor
and in the f’manee department of the City. The audited financial statements for the City for the year ended
December 31,2011 is attached as Appendix C, and is incorporated by reference to this Official Statement.
BOND OWNERS’ RISKS
Prospective purchasers should consult their investment advisors before making any decision as to the purchase of the
Bonds. The following discussion, while not setting forth all of the factors that should be considered, contains some of
the factors which should be considered, in addition to the other information in this Official Statement, prior to
purchasing the Bonds. This section is not meant to be comprehensive or definitive, and there may be other, risk factors
which will become material in the future. The order in which this information is presented does not necessarily reflect
the relative importance of various risks.
Special Limited Revenue Obligations of the City
The Bonds are special revenue obligations of the City, payable solely from the Gross Revenue of the City’s Waterworks
Utility after payment of Cost of Maintenance and Operation. The lien of the Bonds on Net Revenues is equal to the lien
securing the Outstanding Parity Bonds and any Future Parity Bonds that may be issued from time to time, and superior
to all other charges of any kind.
Neither the full faith and credit nor the taxing power of the City is pledged to the payment of the Bonds. The Bonds are
not obligations of the State or any political subdivision thereof other than the City. See "SECURITY AND SOURCES
OF PAYMENT FOR THE BONDS."
30
Operating Results
A number of factors could impact the results of operations of the Waterworks Utility in the future, including a decrease
in the number of customers of the Waterworks Utility, changes in regional and local economic conditions, regulatory
and permit requirements, changes in population, increase in Costs of Maintenance and Operations, and changes in
general market conditions. There can be no assurance that the Waterworks Utility will be able .to maintain the current
number of existing users if there are changes in the resident and/or commercial population of the service area.
Enforceability of Remedies
Any remedies available to the owners of the Bonds upon the occurrence of an event of default under the Bond
Ordinance are in many respects dependent upon judicial actions, which are in turn often subject to discretion and delay
and could be both expensive and time-consuming to obtain. If the City fails to comply with its covenants under the
Bond Ordinance or to pay principal of or interest on the Bonds, there can be no assurance that available remedies will
be adequate to fully protect the interests of the owners of the Bonds.
In addition to the limitations on remedies contained in the Bond Ordinance, the rights and obligations under the Bonds
and the Bond Ordinance may be limited by and are subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, fraudulent
conveyance, moratorium, and other laws relating to or affecting creditors’ rights, to the application of equitable
principles, and to the exercise of judicial discretion in appropriate cases. The opinion to be delivered by Pacifica Law
Group LLP, as Bond Counsel, concurrently with the issuance of the Bonds, will be subject to limitations regarding
bankruptcy, insolvency and other laws relating to or affecting creditors’ tights. The various other legal opinions to be
delivered concurrently with the issuance of the Bonds will be similarly qualified. A copy of the form of legal opinion of
Bond Counsel is set forth in Appendix B.
No Acceleration
A Bondowner cannot require acceleration of debt service on the Bonds upon the occurrence of an event of default. The
City thus would be liable only for principal and interest payments as they became due, and the Bondowners would be
required to seek a separate judgment for each payment, if any, not made. Any such action for monetary damages would
be subject to any limitations on legal claims and remedies against public bodies under State law. Amounts recovered
would be applied to unpaid installments of interest prior to being applied to unpaid principal and premium, if any, which
had become due.
Loss of Exemption of Interest from Federal Income Taxes
The exemption of interest on the Bonds from federal income taxes is dependent upon continuing compliance by the City
with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). The City has covenanted in the
Bond Ordinance to comply with the Code. See "TAX MATTERS." If the interest on the Bonds should be declared
taxable by the Internal Revenue Service (the "IRS") or legislation or regulations are adopted or there is a final
determination by a judicial or administrative authority requiring interest on the Bonds to be included in the recipient’s
gross income for federal income tax purposes, the interest rate will remain unchanged. Neither the Bonds nor the Bond
Ordinance provides for an adjustment of the interest rate or for mandatory redemption of the Bonds in the event that the
interest on the Bonds is declared taxable. If interest on the Bonds should become subject to federal income taxation, the
market value of the Bonds may be adversely affected.
Loss of Premium from Early Redemption
Any person who purchases a Bond at a price in excess of its principal amount should consider the fact that certain
maturities of the Bonds are subject to early redemption at a redemption price equal to the principal amount of such
Bonds plus accrued interest under certain circumstances.
Secondary Market and Prices
It has been the practice of the Underwriter to maintain a secondary market in municipal securities that it sells. The
Underwriter presently intends to engage in secondary market trading of the Bonds, subject to applicable securities laws.
However, the Underwriter is not obligated to engage in secondary trading or to repurchase any of the Bonds. No
assurance can be given that a secondary market for the Bonds will be available and no assurance can be given that the
initial offering prices for the Bonds will continue for any period of time.
31
Ratings
There is no assurance that credit ratings assigned to the Bonds at the time of issuance will not be lowered or withdrawn,
the effect of which could adversely affect the market price and the market for the Bonds. See "RATING" herein.
Bankruptcy
Under current Washington law, local governments, such as the City, may be able to file for bankruptcy under Chapter 9
of the United States Bankruptcy Code (the "Bankruptcy Code"). A creditor, however, cannot bring an invgluntarily
bankruptcy proceeding against a municipality, including the City. The federal bankruptcy courts have broad
discretionary powers under the Bankruptcy Code. Taxing districts in the State are expressly authorized to carry out a
plan of readjustment if approved by the appropriate court. If the City were to become a debtor in a federal bankmptcy
case, owners of the Bonds may not be able to exercise any of their remedies under the Bond Ordinance during the
course of a proceeding. Legal proceedings to resolve issues could be time-consuming and expensive, and substantial
delays and!or reductions in payments could result.
Bond Audits
The IlLS has established a general audit program to determine whether issuers of tax-exempt obligations, such as the
Bonds, are in compliance with requirements of the Code that must be satisfied in order for the interest on those
obligations to be, and continue to be, excluded from gross income for federal income tax purposes. The City cannot
predict whether the IRS will commence an audit of the Bonds. Depending on all the facts and circumstances and the
type of audit involved, it is possible that commencement of an audit of the Bonds could adversely affect the market
value and marketability of the Bonds until the audit is concluded, regardless of its ultimate outcome.
INITIATIVE AND REFERENDUM
Under the State Constitution, the voters of the State have the ability to initiate legislation and require the Legislature to
refer legislation to the voters through the powers of initiative and referendum, respectively. The initiative power in
Washington may not be used to amend the State Constitution. Initiatives and referenda are submitted to the voters upon
receipt of a petition signed by at least eight percent (initiative) and four percent (referenda) of the number of voters
registered and voting for the office of Governor at the preceding regular gubernatorial election. Any law approved in
this manner by a majority of the voters may not be amended or repealed by the Legislature within a period of two years
following enactment, except by a vote of two-thirds of all the members elected to each house of the Legislature. After
two years, the law is subject to amendment or repeal by the Legislature in the same manner as other laws.
Under the Renton Municipal Code, Renton voters may initiate Municipal Code amendments and local legislation,
including modifications to existing legislation and through referendum may prevent legislation passed by the City
Council from becoming law.
In recent years there has been an increase in the number of initiatives and referenda filed in Washington, including state
initiatives targeting property taxes imposed by local jurisdictions. The City cannot predict whether this trend will
continue, whether any filed initiatives will receive the requisite signatures to be certified to the ballot, and whether such
initiatives will be approved by the voters and, if challenged, upheld by the courts.
FINANCIAL ADVISOR
The City has retained Piper Jaffray & Co, Seattle, Washington, as f’mancial advisor (the "Financial Advisor"). The
Financial Advisor is not obligated to undertake, and has not undertaken, either to make an independent verification of or
to assume responsibility for, the accuracy, completeness, or fairness of the information contained in this Official
Statement. While under contract to the City, the Financial Advisor may not participate in the underwriting of any City
debt.
In the opinion of Bond Counsel, interest on the Bonds is excludable from gross income for federal income tax purposes
and is not an item of tax preference for purposes of the federal alternative minimum tax imposed on individuals and
corporations; however, interest on the Bonds is taken into account in determining adjusted current earnings for the
purpose of computing the alternative minimum tax imposed on certain corporations.
32
Federal income tax law contains a number of requirements that apply to the Bonds, including investment restrictions,
periodic payments of arbitrage profits to the United States, requirements regarding the use of proceeds of the Bonds and
the facilities ref’manced with proceeds of the Bonds and certain other matters. The City has covenanted to comply with
all applicable requirements.
Bond Counsel’s opinion is subject to the condition that the City comply with the above-referenced covenants and, in
addition, will rely on representations by the City and its advisors with respect to matters solely within the knowledge of
the City and its advisors, respectively, which Bond Counsel has not independently verified. If the City fails to comply
with such covenants or if the foregoing representations are determined to be inaccurate or incomplete, interest on the
Bonds could be included in gross income for federal income tax purposes retroactively to the date of issuance of the
Bonds, regardless of the date on which the event causing taxability occurs. In rendering its opinion, Bond Counsel has
relied on the report of Grant Thornton LLP with respect to the accuracy of certain mathematical calculations.
Except as expressly stated above, Bond Counsel expresses no opinion regarding any other federal or state income tax
consequences of acquiring, carrying, owning or disposing of the Bonds. Owners of the Bonds should consult their tax
advisors regarding the applicability of any collateral tax consequences of owning the Bonds, which may include original
issue discount, original issue premium, purchase at a market discount or at a premium, taxation upon sale, redemption
or other disposition, and various withholding requirements.
Prospective purchasers of the Bonds should be aware that ownership of the Bonds may result in collateral federal
income tax consequences to certain taxpayers, including, without limitation, financial institutions, property and casualty
insurance companies, individual recipients of Social Security or Railroad Retirement benefits, certain S corporations
with "excess net passive income," foreign corporations subject to the branch profits tax, life insurance companies and
taxpayers who may be deemed to have incurred or continued indebtedness to purchase or carry or have paid or incurred
certain expenses allocable to the Bonds. Bond Counsel expresses no opinion regarding any collateral tax consequences.
Prospective purchasers of the Bonds should consult their tax advisors regarding collateral federal income tax
consequences.
Payments of interest on tax-exempt obligations such as the Bonds, are in many cases required to be reported to the IRS.
Additionally, backup withholding may apply to any such payments made to any owner who is not an "exempt recipient"
and who fails to provide certain identifying information. Individuals generally are not exempt recipients, whereas
corporations and certain other entities generally are exempt recipients.
Bond Counsel’s opinion is not a guarantee of result and is not binding on the IRS; rather, the opinion represents Bond
Counsel’s legal judgment based on its review of existing law and in reliance on the representations made to Bond
Counsel and the City’s compliance with its covenants. The IRS has established an ongoing program to audit tax-
exempt obligations to determine whether interest on such obligations is includable in gross income for federal income
tax purposes. Bond Counsel cannot predict whether the IlLS will commence an audit of the Bonds. Owners of the
Bonds are advised that, if the IRS does audit the Bonds, under current IRS procedures, at least during the early stages of
an audit, the IRS will treat the City as the taxpayer, and the owners of the Bonds may have limited rights to participate
in the audit. The commencement of an audit could adversely affect the market value and liquidity of the Bonds until the
audit is concluded, regardless of the ultimate outcome.
Bank Qualified
The City has designated the Bonds as "qualified tax-exempt obligations" within the meaning of Section 265(b)(3)(B) of
the Code.
Proposed Tax Legislation; Miscellaneous
Tax legislation, administrative actions taken by tax authorities, and court decisions may cause interest on the Bonds to
be subject, directly or indirectly, to federal income taxation or to be subject to or exempted from state income taxation,
or otherwise prevent the beneficial owners of the Bonds from realizing the full current benefit of the tax status of such
interest. In addition, such legislation or actions (whether currently proposed, proposed in the future or enacted) could
affect the market price or marketability of the Bonds. For example, proposals have been made that could significantly
reduce the benefit of, or otherwise affect, the exclusion from gross income for federal tax purposes of interest on
obligations such as the Bonds. Prospective purchasers of the Bonds should consult their own tax advisors regarding any
pending or proposed federal or state tax legislation, regulations or litigation, and its impact on their individual
situations, as to which Bond Counsel expresses no opinion.

CONTINUING DISCLOSURE UNDERTAKING

Such annual information and operating data described above will be so provided on or before the end of nine months
after the end of the City’s fiscal year. The City’s current fiscal year ends on December 31. The City may adjust such

definitive agreement to undertake such an action or the termination of a definitive agreement relating to any
such actions, other than pursuant to its terms, if material; and
¯appointment of a successor or additional trustee or the change of name of a trustee, if material.
Solely for purposes of disclosure, without any intent to modify the undertaking as set forth above, the City advises that
no credit enhancement, credit or liquidity facilities, or property secures payment of the Bonds. The City shall promptly
determine whether the events described above are material.
Format for Filings with the MSRB. Until otherwise designated by the MSRB or the Commission, any information or
notices submitted to the MSRB in compliance with the Rule are to be submitted through the MSRB’s Electronic
Municipal Market Access system ("EMMA"), currently located at www.emma.msrb.org (which is not incorporated into
this Official Statement by reference). All notices, fmancial information and operating data required by this undertaking
to be provided to the MSRB must be in an electronic format as prescribed by the MSRB. All documents provided to the
MSRB pursuant to this undertaking must be accompanied by identifying information as prescribed by the MSRB.
Notification Upon Failure to Provide Financial Data. The City also agrees to provide or cause to be provided, in a
timely manner, to the MSRB notice of its failure to provide the annual financial information described above on or prior
to the date set forth above.
Termination/Modification. The City’s obligations to provide annual financial information and notices of listed events
will terminate upon the legal defeasance, prior redemption or payment in full of all of the Bonds. This section, or any
provision hereof, will be null and void if the City (i) obtains an opinion of nationally recognized bond counsel to the
effect that the portion of the Rule that requires that provision is invalid, has been repealed retroactively or otherwise
does not apply to the Bonds and (ii) notifies the MSRB of such opinion and the cancellation of this section.
Notwithstanding any other provision of the undertaking, the City may amend the provisions described in this section
with an approving opinion of nationally recognized bond counsel and in accordance with the Rule. In the event of any
amendment of its undertaking, the City will describe such amendment in the next annual report, and will include a
narrative explanation of the reason for the amendment and its impact on the type (or in the case of a change of
accounting principles, on the presentation) of f’mancial information or operating data being presented by the City. In
addition, if the amendment relates to the accounting principles to be followed in preparing f’mancial statements, (i)
notice of such change shall be given in the same manner as for a listed event, as described above, and (ii) the annual
report for the year in which the change is made will present a comparison (in narrative form and also, if feasible, in
quantitative form) between the financial statements as prepared on the basis of the new accounting principles and those
prepared on the basis of the former accounting principles.
Bond Owner’s Remedies Under This Section. A Bond Owner’s or Beneficial Owner’s right to enforce the provisions of
the City’s undertaking described in this section will be limited to a right to obtain specific enforcement of the City’s
obligations, and any failure by the City to comply with the provisions of this undertaking will not be an event of default
with respect to the Bonds. For purposes of this section, "Beneficial Owner" means any person who has the power,
directly or indirectly, to vote or consent with respect to, or to dispose of ownership of, any bonds, including persons
holding bonds through nominees or depositories.
Other Ongoing Disclosure Undertakings of the City. The City has entered into written undertakings under the Rule
with respect to its outstanding obligations (the "Prior Undertakings"). Although the City has been filing its annual
financial information on an annual basis, the City recently discovered that ongoing disclosure filings made with respect
to certain obligations were not connected on EMMA to all of the City’s outstanding obligations, including its
Outstanding Parity Bonds. The City responded by submitting an event notice and connecting and!or refilling the
required financial information and operating data for the last five fiscal years on EMMA. The City believes it is
currently in compliance with its Prior Undertakings in all material respects.
RATING
As noted on the cover page of this Official Statement, Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services, a Standard & Poor’s
Financial Services LLC business, has assigned a rating of"AA+" to the Bonds. The rating reflects only the view of the
35
rating agency and an explanation of the significance of the rating may be obtained from the rating agency. There is no
assurance that the rating will be retained for any given period of time or that the rating will not be revised downward or
withdrawn entirely by the rating agency if, in its judgment, circumstances so warrant. Any such downward revision or
withdrawal of the rating will be likely to have an adverse effect on the market price of the Bonds. The City does not
have any obligation to take any action, other than file a material event notification, if the rating on the Bonds is
changed, suspended or withdrawn.
UNDERWRITING
The Bonds are being purchased by Seattle-Northwest Securities Corporation (the "Underwriter") at an aggregate price
of $ , which represents the principal amount of the Bonds plus a premium of $ and less an
underwriter’s discount of $After the initial public offering, the public offering prices may be varied
from time to time.

principal of and interest on the Bonds over and above the payments that were required to be
made for the Refunded Bonds.
The conditions contained in the Parity Bond Ordinances for the Outstanding Parity
Bonds having been~complied with or assured, the payments required herein to be made out of
the Waterworks Utility Fund into the Bond Fund and the Reserve Fund to pay and secure the
payment of the principal of and interest on the Bonds shall constitute a lien and charge upon
the money in the Waterworks Utility Fund equal in rank with the lien and charge thereon for

issuance of the Bonds.
The Bonds shall be designated the "City of Renton, Washington Water and Sewer
Revenue Refunding Bonds, 2012" with any additional series designation, if necessary; shall be

this Ordinance.
The Bonds shall be payable solely out of the Bond Fund and the Reserve Fund and shall

Section 4. Registration of Bonds and Book-Entry System.
(a) Bond Registrar/Bond Register. The City hereby specifies and adopts the system
of registration approve~ by the Washington State Finance Committee from time to time
through the appointment of state fiscal agencies. The City shall cause a bond register to be
maintained by the Bond Registrar. So long as any Bonds remain outstanding, the Bond
Registrar shall make all necessary provisions to permit the exchange or registration or transfer
of Bonds at its principal corporate trust office. The Bond Registrar may be removed at any time
-15-
at the option of the Finance Director upon prior notice to the Bond Registrar and a successor
Bond Registrar appointed by the Finance Director. No resignation or removal of the Bond
Registrar shall be effective until a successor shall have been appointed and until the successor
Bond Registrar shall have accepted the duties of the Bond Registrar hereunder. The Bond
Registrar Is authorized, on behalf of the City, to authenticate and deliver Bonds transferred or
exchanged in accordance with the provisions of such Bonds and this ordinance and to carry out
all of the Bond Registrar’s powers and duties under this ordinance. The Bond Registrar shall be
responsible for its ~epresentations contained in the Certificate of Authentication of the Bonds.
(b) Registered Ownership. The City and the Bond Registrar, each in its discretion,
may deem and treat the Registered Owner of each Bond as the absolute owner thereof for all
purposes (except as provided in Section 17 of this ordinance), and neither the City nor the Bond
Registrar shall be affected by any notice to the contrary. Payment of any such Bond shall be
made only as described in Section 4(h), but such Bond may be transferred as herein provided.
All such payments made as described in Section 4(h) shall be valid and shall satisfy and
discharge the liability of the City upon such Bond to the extent of the amount or amounts so
paid.
(c) DTC Acceptance/Letters of Representations. The Bonds initially shall be held by
DTC acting as depository. To induce DTC to accept the Bonds as eligible for deposit at DTC, the
City has executed and delivered to DTC a Blanket Issuer Letter of Representations. Neither the
City nor the Bond Registrar will have any responsibility or obligation to DTC participants or the
persons for whom they act as nominees (or any successor depository) with respect to the
Bonds in respect of the accuracy of any records maintained by DTC (or any successor
depository) or any DTC participant, the payment by DTC (or any successor depository) or any
DTC participant of any amount in respect of the principal of or interest on Bonds, any notice
which is permitted or required to be given to Registered Owners under this ordinance (except
such notices as shall be required to be given by the City to the Bond Registrar or to DTC (or any
successor depository)), or any consent given or other action taken by DTC (or any successor
depesitoty) as the Registered Owner. For so long as any Bonds are held in by a depository, DTC
or its successor depository shall be deemed to be the Registered Owner for all purposes
hereunder, and all references herein to the Registered Owners shall mean DTC (or any
successor depository) or its nominee and shall not mean the owners of any beneficial interest in
such Bonds.
If any Bond shall be duly presented for payment and funds have not been duly provided
by the City on such applicable date, then interest shall continue to accrue thereafter on the
unpaid principal thereof at the rate stated on such Bond until it is paid.
(d)Use oJ; Depository.
(1) The Bonds shall be registered initially in the name of "Cede & Co.", as
nominee of DTC, with one Bond maturing on each of the maturity dates for the Bonds in a
denomination corresponding to the total principal therein designated to mature on such date.
Registered ownership of such Bonds, or any portions thereof, may not thereafter be transferred
except (A) to any successor of DTC or its nominee, provided that any such successor shall be
qualified under any applicable laws to provide the service proposed to be provided by it; (B) to
any substitute depository appointed by the Finance Director pursuant to subsection (2) below
-17-
or such substitute depository’s successor; or (C) to any person as provided in subsection (4)
below.
(2) Upon the resignation of DTC or its successor (or any substitute depository
or its successor) from its functions as depository or a determination by the Finance Director to
discontinue the system of book entry transfers through DTC or its successor (or any substitute
depository or its successor), the Finance Director may hereafter appoint a substitute
depository. Any such substitute depository shall be qualified under any applicable laws to
provide the services proposed to be provided by it.
(3) in the case of any transfer pursuant to clause (A) or (B) of subsection (1)
above, the Bond Registrar shall, upon receipt of all outstanding Bonds, together with a written
request on behalf of the Finance Director, issue a single new Bond for each maturity then
outstanding, registered in the name of such successor or such substitute depository, or their
nominees, as the case may be, all as specified in such written request of the Finance Director.
(4) In the event that (A) DTC or its successor (or substitute depository or its
successor) resigns from its functions as depository, and no substitute depository can be
obtained, or (B) the Finance Director determines that it is in the best interest of the beneficial
owners of the Bonds that such owners be able to obtain physical Bond certificates, the
ownership of such Bonds may then be transferred to any person or entity as herein provided,
and shall no longer be held by a depository. The Finance Director shall deliver a written request
to the Bond Registrar, together with a supply of physical Bonds, to issue Bonds as herein
provided in any authorized denomination. Upon receipt by the Bond Registrar of all then
outstanding Bonds together with a written request on behalf of the Finance Director to the
Bond Registrar, new Bonds shall be issued in the appropriate denominations and registered in
the names of such persons as are requested in such written request.
(e) Registration oJ: Transfer of Ownership or Exchange; Change in Denominations.
The transfer of any Bond may be registered and Bonds may be exchanged, but no transfer of
any such Bond shall be valid unless it is surrendered to the Bond Registrar with the assignment
form appearing on such Bond duly executed by the Registered Owner or such Registered
Owner’s duly authorized agent in a manner satisfactory to the Bond Registrar. Upon such
surrender, the Bond Registrar shall cancel the surrendered Bond and shall authenticate and
deliver, without charge to the Registered Owner or transferee therefor, a new Bond (or Bonds
at the option of the new Registered Owner) of the same date, maturity and interest rate and
for the same aggregate principal amount in any authorized denomination, naming as Registered
Owner the person or persons listed as the assignee on the assignment form appearing on the
surrendered Bond, in exchange for such surrendered and cancelled Bond. Any Bond may be
surrendered to the Bond Registrar and exchanged, without charge, for an equal aggregate
principal amount of Bonds of the same date, maturity and interest rate, in any authorized
denomination. The Bond Registrar shall not be obligated to register the transfer or to exchange
any Bond during the 15 days preceding any interest payment or principal payment date any
such Bond is to be redeemed.
(f) Bond Registrars Ownership of Bonds. The Bond Registrar may become the
Registered Owner of any Bond with the same rights it would have if it were not the Bond
Registrar, and to the extent permitted by law, may act as depository for and permit any of its
-19-
officers or directors to act as a member of, or in any other capacity with respect to, any
committee formed to protect the right of the Registered Owners of Bonds.
(g) Registration Covenant. The City covenants that, until all Bonds have been
surrendered and canceled, it will maintain a system for recording the ownership of each Bond
that complies with the provisions of Section 149 of the Code.
ih) Place and Medium of Payment. Both principal of and interest on the Bonds shall
be payable in lawful money of the United States of America. Interest on the Bonds shall be
calculated On the basis of a year of 360 days and twelve 30-day months. For so long as all
Bonds are held by a depository, payments of principal and interest thereon shall be made as
provided in accordance with the operational arrangements of DTC referred to in the Letter of
Representations. In the event that the Bonds are no longer held by a depository, interest on
the Bonds shall be paid by check or draft mailed to the Registered Owners at the addresses for
such Registered Owners appearing on the Bond Register on the fifteenth day of the month
preceding the interest payment date, or upon the written request of a Registered Owner of
more than $1,000,000 of Bonds (received by the Bond Registrar at least 15 days prior to the
applicable payment date), such payment shall be made by the Bond Registrar by wire transfer
to the account within the United States designated by the Registered Owner. Principal of the
Bonds shall be payable upon presentation and surrender of such Bonds by the Registered
Owners at the principal office of the Bond Registrar.

(c) Selection oJ~ Bonds J:or Redemption. For as long as the Bonds are held In
book-entry only form, the selection of particular Bonds within a maturity to be redeemed shall

are no longer held in uncertiflcated form, the selection of such Bonds to be redeemed and the
surrender and reissuance thereof, as applicable, shall be made as provided in the following
provisions of this subsection (c). If the City redeems at any one time fewer than all of the Bonds
having the same maturity date, the particular Bonds or portions of Bonds of such maturity to be
redeemed shall be selected by lot (or in such manner determined by the Bond Registrar) in
increments of ~5,000. In the case of a Bond of a denomination greater than $5,000, the City
and the Bond Registrar shall treat each Bond as representing such number of separate Bonds
each of the denomination of $5,000 as is obtained by dividing the actual principal amount of
-21-
such Bond by $5,000. In the event that only a portion of the principal sum of a Bond is
redeemed, upon surrender of such Bond at the principal office of the Bond Registrar there shall
be issued to the Registered Owner, without charge therefor, for the then unredeemed balance
of the principal sum thereof, at the option of the Registered Owner, a Bond or Bonds of like
maturity and interest rate in any of the denominations herein authorized.

notice of redemption (which notice may be conditional) shall be given in accordance with the
operational arrangements of DTC as then in effect, and neither the City nor the Bond Registrar

longer held in uncertificated form), notice of redemption shall be given in the manner
hereinafter provided. Unless waived by any owner of Bonds to be redeemed, official notice of
any such redemption (which redemption may be conditioned by the Bond Registrar on the
receipt of sufficient funds for redemption or otherwise) shall be given by the Bond Registrar on
behalf of the City by mailing a copy of an official redemption notice by first class mail at least
20 days and not more than 60 days prior to the date fixed for redemption to the Registered

which are to be redeemed on that date. If the conditions to redemption have not been met
prior to the date scheduled for redemption, then the City may revoke the redemption by giving

the redemption date shall be payable as herein provided for payment of interest. All Bonds
which have been redeemed shall be canceled by the Bond Registrar and shall not be reissued.
(3) Additional Notice. In addition to the foregoing notice, further notice shall
be given by the City as set out below, but no defect in said further notice nor any failure to give
all or any portion of such further notice shall In any manner defeat the effectiveness of a call for
redemption if notice tl~ereof is given as above prescribed. Each further notice of redemption
given hereunder shall contain the information required above for an official notice of
redemption plus (A) the CUSIP numbers of all Bonds being redeemed; (B) the date of issue of
the Bonds as originally issued; (C) the rate of interest borne by each Bond being redeemed;

Bonds.

Section 5, including but not limited to the information to be included in redemption notices and
the persons designated to receive notices, may be amended by additions, deletions and

issuer of a Credit Facility if the Credit Facility secures the payment of principal on Parity
Bonds and the ordinance authorizing such Parity Bonds provides for such
reimbursement;
(iv) To make all payments required to be made into any sinking fund or bond
redemption fund hereafter created for the payment of Future Parity Bonds which are

-25-
(v) To make all payments required to be made into the Reserve Fund,

Gross Revenue for any fiscal year of the City. Such deposits or withdrawals may be made up to
and including the date 90 days after the end of the fiscal year for which the deposit or
withdrawal will be included in Gross Revenue. No deposit of Gross Revenue will be made into
the Rate Stabilization Fund to the extent that such deposit would prevent the City from meeting
the Coverage Requirement.
S__ection 7. Funds and Accounts.
{a) Bond Fund. There is hereby created In the City Treasury the Waterworks
Revenue Bond Fund, 2012 (the "Bond Fund"), which shall be a "Parity Bond Fund" and a
subaccount of the Waterworks Utility Fund. The Bond Fund shall be maintained for the
purpose of paying the principal of and interest on the Bonds. As long as any Bonds remain
outstanding, the City hereby irrevocably obligates and binds itself to set aside and pay from the
Waterworks Utility Fund into the Bond Fund those amounts necessary, together with such
other funds as are on hand and available in the Bond Fund, to pay the interest or principal and
interest next coming due on outstanding Bonds. Such payments from the Waterworks Utility
Fund to the Bond Fund shall be made in a fixed amount without regard to any fixed proportion
following the closing and delivery of the Bonds on or before each date on which an installment
of interest or principal and interest fails due on the Bonds equal to the installment of interest or
principal and interest.
(b) Reserve Fund. There has heretofore been created by the City a special fund of
the City known as the Waterworks Revenue Bond Reserve Fund (the "Reserve Fund") for
purpose of securing the payment of the principal of and interest on all Parity Bonds. The City
hereby irrevocably covenants and agrees that on or prior to the date of issuance of the Bonds,
the amount on deposit in the Reserve Fund will be at least equal to the Reserve Requirement.
Except for withdrawals therefrom as authorized herein, the Reserve Fund shall be
maintained at the Reserve Requirement at all times so long as any ParRy Bonds are
Outstanding. When the total amount in the Bond Fund shall equal the total amount of principal
and interest for all outstanding Bonds, no further payment need be made into the Bond Fund.
Notwithstanding the first sentence of this paragraph, the Reserve Requirement may be
decreased for any issue of Parity Bonds when and to the extent the City has redeemed or
otherwise defeased any Outstanding ParRy Bonds.
If there shall be a deficiency in the Bond Fund to meet maturing installments of either
principal or interest, as the case may be, on the Bonds, that deficiency shall be made up from
the Reserve Fund by the withdrawal of cash therefrom for that purpose and after all cash has
been depleted, then by draws on the Qualified Insurance or Qualified Letter of Credit for that
purpose. Any deficiency created in the Reserve Fund by reason of any such withdrawal shall
then be made up from Net Revenue first available after making necessary provisions for the
required payments into the Bond Fund. Any money in the Reserve Fund in excess of the
Reserve Requirement may be withdrawn and deposited in any ParRy Bond Fund and spent for
the purpose of retiring ParRy Bonds or may be deposited in any other fund and spent for any
other lawful Waterworks Utility purpose.
The CRy may provide for the purchase, redemption or defeasance of ParRy Bonds by the
use of money on deposit in the Bond Fund or the Reserve Fund as long as the money remaining
in those funds is sufficient to satisfy the required deposits in those funds for the remaining
Parity Bonds.
All money in the Bond Fund or Reserve Fund may be kept in cash or on deposit in the
official bank depository of the City or in any national bank or may be invested in any legal
investment for CRY funds. Interest on any of those investments or on that bank account shall
-28-
be deposited in the Reserve Fund until the total Reserve Requirement shall have been
accumulated therein, after which time the interest shall be deposited in any Parity Bond Fund.
Notwithstanding the provisions for the deposit or maintenance of earnings in the Bond
Fund or the Reserve Fund, the City also may transfer out of the Bond Fund or Reserve Fund any
money required in order to prevent any Parity Bonds from becoming "arbitrage bonds" under
the Code.
If the City fails to set aside and pay into the Bond Fund or the Reserve Fund the amounts
set forth above, the Registered Owner of any of the outstanding Bonds may bring an action
against the City to compel that setting aside and payment.
(c) Pledge of Revenue and Uen Position. The Net Revenue is hereby pledged to the
payment of the Parity Bonds, and the Parity Bonds shall constitute a lien and charge upon such
Net Revenue prior and superior to any other charge whatsoever.
(d) Regarding Suj~iciency of Revenues. The Council hereby finds that in fixing the
amounts to be paid into the Bond Fund out of the Gross Revenues, it has exercised due regard
for the Maintenance and Operation Expense and has not obligated the City to set aside and pay
into such Fund a greater amount of such Gross Revenues than in its judgment will be available
over and above the Maintenance and Operation Expense.
Section 8. Covenants. The City covenants and agrees with the Registered Owner of
each Bond at any time outstanding as follows:
(a) Rate Covenant. It will establish, maintain and collect rates and charges for all
services and facilities provided by the Waterworks Utility which will be fair and
nondiscriminatory, and will adjust those rates and charges from time to time so that:

and Operation Expense on a current basis, (B)pay when due all amounts that the City is
obligated to pay into the Reserve Fund and any Parity Bond Funds and (C)pay all taxes,
assessments or other governmental charges lawfully imposed upon the Waterworks Utility or
other revenue therefrom or payments in lieu thereof and any and all other amounts which the
City may now or hereafter become obligated to pay from Gross Revenue by law or contract;
and
(2) Net Revenue in each calendar year will be at least equal to the Coverage
Requirement.
(b)Maintenance and Repair. It will at all times maintain and keep the Waterworks
Utility in good repair, working order and condition and also will at all times operate such Utility
and the business In connection therewith in an efficient manner and at a reasonable cost.
(c) Disposal of Waterworks Utility. It will not sell, lease, mortgage or in any manner
encumber or otherwise dispose of the Waterworks Utility in its entirety unless, simultaneously
with such sale or other disposition, all Parity Bonds are defeased pursuant to the provisions of
this ordinance.
It will not sell, lease, mortgage or in any manner encumber or otherwise dispose of any
part of the Waterworks Utility (other than timber), including all additions and improvements
thereto and extensions thereof at any time made, that are used, useful or material in the
operation of the Waterworks Utility, unless provision is made for the replacement thereof or
for payment into the Bond Fund of the greatest of the following:
-30-
(1) An amount which will be in the same proportion to the net amount of
any Parity Bonds then outstanding (defined as the total amount of those bonds less the amount
of cash and investments in the Reserve Fund and any Parity Bond Funds) that Gross Revenue
from the portion of the Waterworks Utility sold or disposed of for the preceding year bears to
the total Gross Revenue for that period;
(2) An amount which will be in the same proportion to the net amount of

purchasers thereof, would have caused the Bonds as "arbitrage bonds" within the meaning of
such term as used in Section 148 of the Code.
-33-
The City represents that it has not been notified of any listing or proposed listing by the
internal Revenue Service to the effect that it is an issuer whose arbitrage certifications may not

bond year to be directly or indirectly: (A) secured by any interest in property used or to be used
for any Private Person Use or secured by payments in respect of property used or to be used for
any Private Person Use, or (B) derived from payments (whether or not made to the City) in
respect of property, or borrowed money, used or to be used for any Private Person Use.

related to the state or local governmental use of the project refinanced with the Bonds, and
(ii) any Private Person Use will not exceed the amount of Net Proceeds of the Bonds used for
the state or local governmental use portion of the project to which the Private Person Use of
such portion of the project relates. The City further covenants that it will comply with any
limitations on the use of the projects by other than state and local governmental users that are
necessary, in the opinion of its bond counsel, to preserve the tax exemption of the interest on
the Bonds.
(c) Modification of Tax Covenants. The covenants of this section are specified solely
to assure the continued exemption from regular income taxation of the interest on the Bonds.
To that end, the provisions of this section may be modified or eliminated without any

FORM OF BOND COUNSEL OPINION
,2012
City of Renton, Washington
Renton, Washington
Seattle-Northwest Securities Corporation
Seattle, Washington
Re."City of Renton, Washington
Water and Sewer Revenue Refunding Bonds, 2012 -- $
Ladies and Gentlemen:
We have acted as bond counsel to the City of Renton, Washington (the "City"), and have examined a
certified transcript of all of the proceedings taken in the matter of the issuance by the City of its Water and Sewer
Revenue Refunding Bonds, 2012, in the principal amount of $ (the "Bonds") issued pursuant to
Ordinance No. 5672, passed by the Council on October 15, 2012 (the "Bond Ordinance"), to refund certain water
and sewer revenue bonds and to pay costs of issuance of the Bonds. Capitalized terms used in this opinion have the
meanings given such terms in the Bond Ordinance.
The Bonds are subject to redemption prior to maturity as provided in the Bond Ordinance and the Bond
Purchase Contract.
Regarding questions of fact material to our opinion, we have relied on representations of the City in the
Bond Ordinance and in the certified proceedings and on other certifications of public officials and others furnished
to us without undertaking to verify the same by independent investigation.
Based on the foregoing, we are of the opinion that, under existing law:
1. The Bonds have been legally issued and constitute valid and binding special obligations of the
City, both principal thereof and interest thereon payable solely out of special funds of the City known as the Bond
Fund and the Reserve Fund, except to the extent that the enforcement of the rights and remedies of the holders of the
Bonds may be limited by laws relating to bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency, moratorium or other similar laws
of general application affecting the rights of creditors, by the application of equitable principles and the exercise of
judicial discretion.
2. The Bond Ordinance is a legal, valid and binding obligation of the City, has been duly authorized,
executed and delivered and is enforceable in accordance with its terms, except to the extent that enforcement may be
limited by laws relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium, reorganization or other similar laws of general
application affecting the rights of creditors, by the application of equitable principles and the exercise of judicial
discretion.
3.. The City has irrevocably bound itself to set aside and pay into said Bond Fund out of Gross
Revenue of the Waterworks Utility certain fixed amounts necessary to pay and secure the payment of the principal
of and interest on the Bonds as the same become due. The City has further pledged that the payments to be made
into the Bond Fund out of Gross Revenue of the Waterworks Utility shall constitute a lien and charge upon such
Gross Revenue superior to all other charges of any kind or nature whatsoever, except for Maintenance and
Operation Expense of the Waterworks Utility, and equal in rank to the lien and charge on such Gross Revenue to
pay and secure the payment of the principal of and interest on the City’s Outstanding Parity Bonds and any Future
B-1
Parity Bonds that may be issued after this date on a parity with such bonds and the Bonds. The City has reserved the
fight to issue Future Parity Bonds on the terms and conditions set forth in the Bond Ordinance.
4. Interest on the Bonds is excludable from gross income for federal income tax purposes under
existing law and is not an item of tax preference for purposes of the federal alternative minimum tax imposed on
individuals and corporations; however, interest on the Bonds is taken into account in determining adjusted current
earnings for the purpose of computing the alternative minimum tax imposed on certain corporations. The opinion
set forth in the preceding sentence is subject to the condition that the City comply with all requirements of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), that must be satisfied subsequent to the issuance of the
Bonds in order that the interest thereon be, and continue to be, excludable from gross income for federal income tax
purposes. The City has covenanted to comply with all applicable requirements. Failure to comply with certain of
such covenants may cause interest on the Bonds to be included in gross income for federal income tax purposes
retroactively to the date of issuance of the Bonds.
The City has designated the Bonds as "qualified tax-exempt obligations" within the meaning of Section
265(b)(3) of the Code.
Except as expressly stated above, we express no opinion regarding any other federal or state income tax
consequences of acquiring, carrying, owning or disposing of the Bonds. Owners of the Bonds should consult their
tax advisors regarding the applicability of any collateral tax consequences of owning the Bonds, which may include
original issue discount, original issue premium, purchase at a market discount or at a premium, taxation upon sale,
redemption or other disposition, and various withholding requirements.
This opinion is given as of the date hereof, and we assume no obligation to update, revise or supplement
this opinion to reflect any facts or circumstances that may hereafter come to our attention or any changes in law that
may hereafter occur.
Very truly yours,

Council
City of Renton
Renton, Washington
We have audited the accompanying financial statements of the governmental activities, the
business-type activities, each major fund and the aggregate remaining fund information of the
City of Renton, King Cotmty, Washington, as of and for the year ended December 31, 2011,
which collectively comprise the City’s basic fmancial statements as listed in the table of
contents. These financial statements are the responsibility of the City’s management. Our
responsibility is to express opinions on these financial statements based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United
States of America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government
Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States. Those standards
require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the
financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test
basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also
includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that
our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinions.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects,
the respective financial position of the governmental activities, the business-type activities, each
major fund and the aggregate remaining fund information of the City of Renton, King County,
Washington, as of December 31, 2011, and the respective changes in financial position and,
where applicable, cash flows thereof for the year then ended in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

As described in Note 1, during the year ended December 3 I, 2011, the City has implemented the
Governmental Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 54 - Fund Balance Reporting and
Governmental Fund Type Definitions.
In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we will also issue our report dated June 29,
2012, on our consideration of the City’s internal control over financial reporting and on our tests
of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts and grant agreements
and other matters. That report will be issued under separate cover in the City’s Single Audit
Report. The purpose of that report is to describe the scope of our testing of internal control over
financial reporting and compliance and the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion
on the internal control over financial reporting or on compliance. That report is an integral part
of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards and should be
considered in assessing the results of our audit.
Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that the
management’s discussion and analysis on pages 3-1 through 3-14, budgetary comparison
information on page 5-1, pension trust fund on pages 5-2 and information on pestemployment
benefits other than pensions on pages 5-3 be presented to supplement the basic financial
statements. Such information, although not a part of the basic financial statements, is required
by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board who considers it to be an essential part of
financial reporting for placing the basic financial statements in an appropriate operational,
economic or historical context. We have applied certain limited procedures to the required
supplementary information in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the
United States of America, which consisted of inquiries of management about the methods of
preparing the information and comparing the information for consistency with management’s
responses to our inquires, the basic financial statements, and other knowledge we obtained
during the audit of the basic financial statements. We do not express an opinion or provide any
assurance on the information because the limited procedures do not provide us with sufficient
evidence to express an opinion or provide any assurance.
Oar audit was performed for the purpose of forming opinions on the financial statements that
collectively comprise the City’s basic financial statements. The accompanying information
listed as combining financial statements on pages 6-1 through 6-40 is presented for purposes of
additional analysis and is not a required part of the basic financial statements. Such information
is the responsibility of management and was derived from and relates directly to the underlying
accounting and other records used to prepare the financial statements. This information has been
subjected to auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and certain
additional procedures, including comparing and reconciling such information directly to the
underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the financial statements or to the
financial statements themselves, and other additional procedures in accordance with auditing
standards generally accepted in the United States of America. In our opinion, the information is
fairly stated,.in all material respects, in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a
whole.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
The City of Renton’s discussion and analysis provides a narrative overview of the City’s financial
activities for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011. The intent of the discussion and analysis is
to review the City’s financial performance as a whole.
This Management’s Discussion and Analysis (MD&A) combined with the Transmittal Letter, the
Financial Statements, and the Notes to the Financial Statements represent the complete 20:11
financial activities for the City of Renton. These are all intended to help the reader understand the
City’s significant financial issues. This MD&A provides an overview of the City’s financial records.
The data in this financial report also identifies any material deviations from the financial plan and
the adopted annual budget. Finally, the intent of the MD&A and other financial information is to
isolate and identify individual fund issues or concerns.
FINANCIAL INFORMATION
The City’s Government-wide Financial Statements were prepared on the full accrual basis of
accounting in conformity with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP). The City’s Fund
Financial Statements for its major and non-major governmental funds were prepared on the
modified accrual basis of accounting in conformity with GAAP. The City’s major and non-major
enterprise funds, internal service funds, and pension funds were accounted for on the full accrual
basis of accounting in conformity with GAAP.
The City of Renton, along with all cities, counties, and other governmental entities in Washington,
must comply with the Budgeting, Accounting, and Reporting System (BARS) as defined by the
Washington State Auditor’s Office (SAO). SAO audits the financial records of all cities and other
governmental units within the State. The City of Renton’s financial system integrates financial and
administrative controls that ensure the safeguarding of assets and the reliability of financial
reports. These controls are designed to provide:
1. reasonable assurance that transactions are executed in accordance to management
understanding and approval;
2. reasonable assurance that transactions are executed in accordance to GAAP;
3. accountability for control of assets and obligations; and
4. assurance that sufficient reporting and review exists to provide adequate information for
analysis and comparability of data.
Internal control is a high priority for the City. SAO reviews the City’s internal controls, and the City
receives and takes action on all the recommendations made.
The City maintains strong budgetary controls in order to ensure compliance with legal provisions
embodied in the annual appropriated budget as approved by the City Council. The City Council
must authorize any budget increase or decrease to any fund.

¯As of December 31, 2011, the City’s Governmental Activities reported net assets of $453.3
million. Of this total, $53.2 million is defined as unrestricted and can be used for needs the

capital and cash flow to meet daily financial needs.
¯Investment in capital assets (net of related debt) comprises $373.6 million of the $453.3
million in Governmental Activities net assets.
¯The business type activities have total net assets of $240.4 million. 90.3% of this total,
$217.1 million, represents the City’s investments in capital assets (net of related debt). An
unrestricted balance of $23.3 million remains and is used to meet day to day cash flow
requirements and to ensure we can meet all obligations of the utilities and other funds if
the revenues do not meet expectations.
¯The City’s total outstanding long-term debt as of December 31, 2011, was $141.5 million.
Of this amount, $41.4 million are revenue bonds and PWTF loans dedicated to the
waterworks projects. Employee leave balances and other post-employment benefits total
$9.1 million. The balance of $91.0 million of City debt is dedicated for general
governmental purposes, including the purchase of City Hall, the construction of the

REQUIRED COMPONENTS OF THE
ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT
In addition to the required components shown in Figure 1, the City’s annual report also includes
other voluntary supplementary information. The most significant section is the Combining
Statements. These provide Balance Sheets, Statement of Revenues, Expenditures, and Changes in
Fund Balances with Budget to Actual comparisons, Statement of Net Assets, and Cash Flows for all
Non-Major Funds.
The next section of information, the Statistical Section, provides a ten-year view of the City’s
Revenue, Expenditures, Debt Obligations, and Debt Capacity; the City’s largest taxpayers, and
those entities with the largest employment within the City of Renton. This section provides a long-
term perspective on the City’s economy.
BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Government-wide Financial Statements provide readers with a broad overview of the City of
Renton’s finances in a manner similar to a private sector business. They provide both short-term
and long-term information about the City’s overall financial status. The government-wide
statements distinguish between functions of the City that are principally supported by taxes and
intergovernmental revenues (referred to as "governmental activities") from functions that are
intended to recover all or a significant portion of their costs through user fees and charges
(referred to as "business-type activities.") The governmental activities of the City include a full
range of local government services provided to the public such as police and fire protection; road
maintenance and construction; community planning and economic development; libraries, parks,
and recreational opportunities; and other community services. The business-type activities of the
City include waterworks (water, sewer, and surface water), solid waste management and services,
golf course, and airport.
2011 Comprehensive Annual Financial Report City oJ= Ren~n, Wclshfngton
The Statement of Net Assets presents information on all of the City’s assets and liabilities with the
difference between the two reported as net assets. This statement combines and consolidates
governmental funds’ current financial resources (short term available resources) with capital
assets and long-term obligations, which is primarily debt. The Statement of Net Assets serves a
purpose similar to that of the Balance Sheet of a private-sector business. Over time, increases or
decreases in net assets may serve as one indicator of whether the financial position of the City is
improving or deteriorating. Other indicators to consider when evaluating the financial position of
the City includes changes to the property tax base, general economic conditions as demonstrated
through business licenses fees or sales tax revenue, and the condition of the City’s infrastructure
(roads, drainage systems, bridges, and water infrastructure).
The Statement of Activities focuses upon both the gross and net cost of various activities that are
provided by the government’s general tax and other revenues. This is intended to summarize and
simplify the user’s analysis of cost to various governmental services and/or subsidy to various
business-type activities. By separating program revenue from general revenue, users of the
financial statements can identify the extent to which each program relies on taxes for funding.
The Governmental Activities reflect the City’s basic functions: General Government, Judicial,
Security of Person and Property, Physical Environment, Mental and Physical Health, and Culture
and Recreation. Property, sales, and utility taxes finance the majority of these functions.
All changes in net assets are reported using the accrual basis of accounting, which is similar to the
accounting used in the private sector. The accrual basis of accounting requires that revenues are
reported when earned and expenses are reported when incurred, no matter when the revenue
will actually be received or the obligation will be paid. For example, property taxes are shown as a
receivable and revenue even though some amount of these taxes will not be available to the City
for several years. Unpaid vendor obligations are illustrated as an accounts payable obligation as of
December 31.
Fund Financial Statements
The City uses funds to ensure and demonstrate fiscal integrity and compliance with finance related
legal requirements with a focus on Major Funds. A fund is a group of related accounts that is used
to maintain control over resources that have been segregated for specific activities and objectives.
There are three types of funds: governmental, proprietary, and fiduciary.
A Major Fund has three elements as defined by GASB 34:
¯Total assets, liabilities, revenues, or expenditures of that individual governmental or
enterprise funds are at least ten percent (10%) of the corresponding total (assets, liabilities,
etc.) for all funds of that category or type (i.e., governmental, proprietary, or fiduciary); and
¯Total assets, liabilities, revenues, or expenditures/expenses of the individual government
fund or enterprise funds are at least five percent (5%) of the corresponding total for all
governmental and enterprise funds combined; or
Managements Discussion and An~ztysis, 3-4
2011 Comprehensive Annual Financial Report ~ of Renton, Washington
¯Any other governmental or enterprise fund that the government’s officials believe is
particularly important.
Governmental Funds present most of a government’s tax-supported activities. The Proprietary
Funds describe and financially manage the government’s business-type activities where all or part
of the activities’ costs are supported by fees and charges that are paid directly by those who
benefit from the activities. Fiduciary Funds control resources held by the government as a trustee
or agent for parties outside of the government. The resources of Fiduciary Funds cannot be used
to support the government’s own programs.
Governmental Funds
The Governmental Fund Balance Sheet and Governmental Fund Statement of Revenues,
Expenditures, and Changes in Fund Balances present separate columns of financial data for the
General Fund, Municipal Facilities CIP Fund and Capital Improvement Fund. These comprise the
City’s major governmental funds. Data from the remaining governmental funds are combined and
presented in a single, aggregated column in the fund statements. Individual fund data for each of
the non-major governmental funds is provided in the form of combining statements.
Governmental Funds are used to account for essentially the same functions reported as
governmental activities in the Government-wide Financial Statements. The focus of Governmental
Fund Financial Statements is on near-term inflows and outflows of available financial resources
and on balances of resources available at the end of the fiscal year. Such information is useful in
evaluating whether there are more or less financial resources that can be spent in the near future
to finance City services.
Because the focus of governmental Fund Financial Statements is a narrower view than that of the
Government-wide Financial Statements, it is useful to compare information presented for
governmental funds with similar information presented for governmental activities in the
Government-wide Financial Statements. This gives the reader a better understanding of the long-
term impact of the government’s near-term financing decisions. The Governmental Fund Balance
Sheet and the Governmental Fund Statement of Revenues, Expenditures, and Changes in Fund
Balances provide reconciliation to the governmental activities column in the government-wide
statements to facilitate this comparison.
The City maintains budgetary controls over its governmental funds. Budgetary controls ensure
compliance with legal provisions embodied in the annual appropriated budget. Governmental
fund budgets are established in accordance with state law and are adopted on a fund level.
General fund budget variances are specifically addressed later in this discussion and analysis.
Proprietary Funds
These types of funds consist of two types of funds: Enterprise and Internal Service. They have
always been operated as pdvate business activity. Enterprise Funds are used to report the same
functions as business-type activities in the Government-wide Financial Statements. Internal
Service Funds are used to report activities that provide supplies and services to various City
Management’s Discussion and Analysis,
2011 Comprehensive Annual Financial Report City of Renton, Washington
departments and to accumulate and allocate the associated costs of providing these services to
the vadous functions. The revenues and expenses of Internal Service Funds that are duplicated in
other funds are eliminated in the government-wide statements. Because the remaining balances
primarily benefit governmental, rather than business-type activities, they have been included
within Governmental Activities in the Government-wide Statements.
The City of Renton has two major proprietary funds: Waterworks Utility (water, wastewater, and
stormwater) and Solid Waste. The Proprietary Fund Balance Sheet and the Proprietary Fund
Statement of Revenues, Expenses, and Changes in Fund Equity present separate columns of
financial data for the Waterworks Utility and Solid Waste. Data from the remaining Enterpflse
Funds are combined and presented in a single, aggregated column in the fund statements.
Governmental Activities Internal Service Funds are reported separately in this section.
Proprietary Fund statements provide the same type of information as the Government-wide
Financial Statements, only in more detail, since both apply the accrual basis of accounting. In
comparing the total assets and total liabilities between the two statements, only slight differences
will be noticed. One notable difference is that the "due from other funds" (asset) and the "due to
other funds" (liability) in the proprietary fund statements are combined in a single line called
"internal balances" in the asset section of the Government-wide Statement of Net Assets.
Fidudary Funds
Fiduciary Funds are used to account for resources held for the benefit of parties outside the
government. Fiduciary funds are not reported in the Government-wide Financial Statements
because the resources of those funds are not available to support the City’s own operations. All of
the City’s fiduciary activities are reported in a separate Statement of Fiduciary Net Assets and a
Statement of Changes in Fiduciary Net Assets.
Notes to the F|nandal Statements
The notes provide additional information that is essential to a full understanding of the data
provided, and are an integral part of the Government-wide and Fund Financial Statements.
Combining statements for non-major Governmental and Enterprise Funds, as well as Internal
Service Funds, are presented immediately following the required supplementary information.
GOVERNMENT-WIDE FINANCIAL ANALYSIS
Statement of Net Assets
Changes in Net Assets may serve as a useful indicator of a government’s financial position. The
overall financial position has improved for the City of Renton over the prior year. Changes in Net
Assets from 20:10 to 2011 shows an increase in total net assets of $2:1.4 million.
Management’s Discussion andAnaly~is, 3-6
2011 Comprehensive Annual Financial Report City o/ Renton, w~shington
Table I is a condensed version of the Government-wide Statement of Net Assets.
~~ ~ 17743 107 76 7 ~
The majority of the City’s net assets (85%) are investments in capital assets (e.g., streets, drainage,
construction in progress, buildings, equipment, water and sewer pipes) less any related
outstanding debt used to acquire these assets. The City’s capital assets are used to provide
services to citizens. It should be noted that although the investment in capital assets is reported
net of related debt, resources needed to repay this debt must be provided from other sources
since the capital assets themselves cannot be used to liquidate these liabilities.
Investments in capital assets net of related debt decreased from 2010 to 2011 by S6.3 million.
Investments in capital assets decreased by $9.4 million in the Governmental activities, which is
due to the issuance of $16.7 million of new debt to build two new libraries. Very little capital work
had taken place in 2011; therefore no significant assets have been recorded related to the new
debt. Business-type activities increased $3.1 million primarily due to capital activity as opposed to
significant reductions in debt although revenue bond debt in the Golf Course fund (a business-type
activity) was replaced by an interfund loan from the General Fund in 2010. Interfund loan debt is
not included in the calculation of Investments in capital assets net of related debt.
Restricted assets, representing resources that are subject to external restrictions on how they may
be used, equate to 3.8% of total net assets, up from 1.7% in 2010. This increase is related to the
$16.7 million of new debt issued in 2011 which is restricted for capital construction related to the
new libraries. The remaining balance (unrestricted net assets) of $76.6 million will be used to
meet the City’s ongoing commitments and plans.
As of December 31, 2011, the City reports positive balances in all three categories of net assets,
for the government as a whole, as well as for separate governmental and business-type activities.
Statement of Change in Net Assets
The City’s total net assets (before prior period adjustments) increased in 2011 by $22.4 million.
Governmental activities generated 57% of this total or $12.7 million, while business-type activities
generated $9.7 million of this total.

TOta~

Sixty-six percent (66%) of the City’s total activities are for governmental activities such as providing
police, fire, parks, libraries, recreation, building safety, and planning services. The remaining
activities relate to business-type services provided by the City. The largest business-type activities
include water, sewer, surface water and solid waste activities.
Governmental Activities Analysis
Governmental activities cost a total of $108.4 million in 2011, up 2% from 2010. Of this amount,
$43.2 million was paid for either by those who directly benefited from the programs or by other
governments and organizations that subsidized certain programs with grants and contributions.
The net expense (total expenses less program revenues) of $65.2 million was the cost of
governmental services City taxpayers primarily paid through various taxes.

Chart 2 depicts the sources of revenues that fund governmental activities, Approximately sixty-
three percent (63%) is from various taxes. Charges for services, grants, and interest earnings

Manegement% Discussion and Analysis, 3-9
The City’s largest business-type activity, the Waterworks Utility, had a positive net change (~8.4
million) at the end of 2011 compared to ~21,000 change in 2010. This large increase is primarily
due to rate increases, which are necessary to replace failing systems and provide on-going capital
infrastructure replacements. The City generated ~45.6 million in various fees for services and
other sources from waterworks activities and had ~37.1 million in expenses. The Airport’s total
expenses were $2.0 million. Total revenues for 2011 were $2.0 million, which is consistent with
2010 revenues. The Solid Waste Utility’s revenues were $15.0 million generated from fees for
services and $111,488 in grants and contributions. The total expenses were ~14.4 million. The
Golf Course generated a total of $2~0 million in green fees, driving range charges, and other user
fees. The total expenses for the Golf Course were $2.1 million. The Golf Course had a loss of
£85,000 for the year.
Management’$ Discussion and Analysis, 3-I0
2011 Comprehensive Annual Financial Report City of Renton, Washington
Business-type activities are supported primarily from charges for services. In the City of Renton,
$62.3 million was generated from charges for services in the business-type activities. These
comprise ninety-eight percent (95%) of the total financial support for these activities. Grant
revenues increased $1.8 million from 2010 to 2011 largely due to a surface and storm water
improvement grant for approximately $1.0 million and US Department of Transportation grant for
approximately $500,000 for the airport taxiway improvements.
FINANCIAL ANALYSIS OF THE GOVERNMENT’S FUNDS
Governmental Funds Analysis
The focus of the City’s governmental funds is to provide information on near-term inflows,
outflows, and balances of spendable resources. Such information is useful in assessing the City’s
financing requirements. In particular, unreserved fund balance may serve as a useful measure of a
government’s net resources available for spending at the end of the fiscal year.
As of the end of the fiscal year, the City’s govemmental funds reported combined ending fund
balances of $49.2 million, an increase of $17.2 million in comparison to last year. This large
increase is attributed to a $16.7 million in general obligation bonds issue in 2011. Approximately
fifty-nine percent (59%) constitutes unrestricted fund balance, which has been either committed or
assigned to reflect the City Council and management’s plans and commitments to be expended in
future periods. The remainder of the fund balance is reserved or designated to indicate that it is
not available for new spending because it has already been committed for operating or capital
reserves. The large increase in fund balances resulted from the issuance of general obligation
debt, mentioned above, and is restricted for the capital construction of two new libraries.
The General Fund is the chief operating fund of the City. At the end of the current year,
unrestricted fund balance of the general fund was $13.8 million, while total fund balance ended at
$15.7 million. Although unrestricted, this balance has assigned designation for specific functions
and plans approved by the City Council. The fund balance increased by $1.3 million as the City was
able to realize expenditure savings in excess of revenue received.
The Municipal Facilities CIP fund has been included as a major fund of the City due to the
importance of municipal projects that may be accounted for in this fund in any given year. The
fund balance increased by $17.1 million in 2011 and is directly related the general obligation debt
noted earlier.
The Capital Improvement fund is the last major governmental fund. This fund accounts for the
many transportation-related projects in the City. The fund balance increased $129,200.
Propdetary Funds Analysis
The fund financial statements for the proprietary funds are presented in more detail, but
essentially provide the same type of information found in the business-type activities in the
government-wide financial statements. Net assets in the Waterworks Utility Fund and the Solid
Waste Fund were $215.4 million and $2.9 million respectively. This represents an increase in the
Management’s Discussion and Analysis, 3-11
2011 Comprehensive Annual Financial Report City of Renton, Washington
Waterworks Utility Fund of $7.5 million and an increase in the Solid Waste Fund of $0.7 million.
The factors concernlng the finances of these two funds have been addressed In the discussion of
business-type activities.
GENERAL FUND BUDGETARY HIGHLIGHTS
During the year there was a $4.2 million increase in appropriations between the original and final
amended budget. This increase was mainly due to 2010’s LEOFF1 medical contribution to fully
fund actuarially determined annual obligations for 2010 ($700,000) and to fund the gap for
banking service fees ($197,000). Other increases were department carryfoward requests which
were offset by an increase of 52.7 million to budgeted revenues. In addition, the General Fund did
not spend $6.1 million of the legally appropriated expenditures. As a result, the General Fund fund
balance increased by ~768,000 in 2011.
CAPITAL ASSET AND DEBT ADMINISTRATION
Capital Assets
The City of Renton’s investment in capital assets, including construction in progress, for its
governmental and business-type activities as of December 31, 2011, amounts to 5691.3 million as
presented on the following table.
(Net of D~on,/AmorlfmztiOn|
The increase of $6.6 million in 2011 is made up of large capital projects such as Rainier Ave.,
Strander Blvd., Lake Washington Trail, Rainer Ave. storm water improvements, and
Stonegate/Summerwind wastewater improvements. More detail about the City’s Capital Assets
can be found in Note 5 to the financial statements.
Debt Administration
As shown in Table 4, the City’s total outstanding debt at December 31, 2011, was 5129.7 million.
This was a net increase (new issues less principal payments and refunding) of $10.5 million.
Management’s Discussion and Analysis, 3-12
2011 Comprehensive Annual Financial Report City o/ Renton, Washington
The City was able to reduce aggregate debt service payments and realize present value gains by
refunding 2001 General Obligation Refunding Bonds. More detailed information about the City’s
long-term debt can be found in Note 13 to the financial statements.
FUTURE YEAR’S BUDGETARY IMPACTS
The 2011-2012 adopted budget is the first biennial budget for the City of Renton. After the mid-
biennial budget adjustment, total adopted revenue is ~487 million against total expenditures of
$532 million. The adjusted revenue shows an increase of 6.9% from the combined 2009-2010
adopted budget level and the expenditures reflect an increase of 14.9% from the adopted 2009-
2010 budgeted expenditures. In addition to implementing a biennial budget, the City also formed
a Community Budget Advisory Group comprised of local residents, business owners, and
community leaders. This group was asked several questions in order to solicit their suggestions on
opportunities for greater efficiencles and costs savings. They were able to provide the City with a
number of valuable recommendations, some of which have been included in the 2Oll-2012
adopted budget.
We initially saw a promising start in early 2010, but the recovery slowed to a crawl during the
second quarter of 2010. Our modest growth projections for 2011 were barely met. Housing
starts and permits slowly began increasing in 2011 and continue with upward growth into the first
quarter of 2012. During budget preparation in 2010, our preliminary projections indicated that
maintaining current levels of services in General Government Operations would result in a deficit
of $2 million in this budget period. We made the necessary adjustments to bring our
expenditures in line with our revenue projections through the next biennium. Every department
made difficult choices, reducing or reorganizing services while minimizing adverse impacts to our
citizens. In addition, the 2011-2012 adopted budget does not restore any of the service
reductions made during 2010 even though some of these cuts and reductions cannot be sustained
in the long run. It is likely these service reductions will remain for the 2013-2014 biennial budget.
The City is committed to continuing efforts to evaluate the way we do business. We will continue
to right-size the structure of government. We will continue to engage our employees to help find
innovative and effective ways of serving our citizens. We will continue to practice fiscal
responsibility and reduce our debt. And we will continue to work with our labor groups to find
sustainable ways of managing our labor costs in order for us to continue to provide quality
services to our citizens with fewer dollars.

Governmental funds report capita] outlays as expenditures. However, in the
statement of actMtles the cost of those assets is allocated over their
estimated useful lives and reported as depreciation expense. This is the
amount by which capital outlays exceeded depreciation expense In the

Revenues in the statement of actlvffies that do not provide cun’ent financial resources
are not reported as revenue in the funds.
The issuance of long-term debt (e.8, bonds, ~eases) provides current flnandal
resources to governmental funds, whila the repayment of the prindpal of
long-term debt consumes the current financial resources of governmental
funds. Neither transaction, however, has any effect on net assets. Also,
governmental funds report the effect of issuance costs, premiums, discounts,
and similar items when debt is first issued, whereas these amounts are deferred
and amortized in the statement of activities. This amount is the net effect of
these differences in the treatment of long*term debt and related items.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
January 1, 2011 through December 31, 2011
NOTE 1. SUMMARYOF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The City of Renton was incorporated on September 6, 1901, and operates under the laws of the
State of Washington applicable to a Non-Charter code city with a Mayor/Council form of
government. A full-time Mayor and seven part-time Council members serve the City, all elected
at large to four-year terms. The City provides the full range of municipal services authorized by
state statues, together with a Municipal Airport, a Waterworks Utility, a Solid Waste Utility, and
a Municipal Golf Course.
The accounting and reporting polldes of the City related to the funds included in the
accompanying financial statements conform to generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP)
applicable to state and local governments. GAAP for local governments include those principles
prescribed by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB), the Financial Accounting
Standards Board (FASB), when applicable, and the American Institute of Certified Public
Accountants (AICPA) pronouncements that have been made applicable by GASB Statements or
Interpretations.
In accordance with GASB Statement 20, the City has not applied to its enterprise activities FASB
Statements and interpretations, Accounting Principles Board opinions, and Accounting
Research Bulletins of the Committee of Accounting Procedure issued after November 30, 1989.
Effective for Fiscal Year 2011 reporting, the City implemented the following new accounting and
reporting standards issued by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB):
GASB Statement No. 54 - Fund Balance Reporting and Governmental Fund Types-
This Statement establishes fund balance classifications that comprise a hierarchy based
primarily on the extent to which a government is bound to observe constraints imposed
upon the use of the resources reported in governmental funds. The statement further
provides clarified definitions of the general fund, special revenue fund type, capital
projects fund type, debt service fund type, and permanent fund type.
A. REPORTING ENTITY
As required by GAAP the City’s financial statements present the City of Renton - the primary
government.
The City of Renton’s Mayor appoints the Governing Board for the Renton Housing Authority,
which is not considered a component unit of the City. The City is under no obligation to
subsidize, nor does it exercise any other prerequisite for inclusion.
The City of Renton has no component units (either blended or discretely presented) included in
these statements.
2011 Comprehet~sive Annual Flnuncta! Report City of Renton, Washington
B. BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - GASB 34 PRESENTATION
The City’s basic financial statements include both government-wide (reporting the City as a
whole) and fund financial statements (reporting the City’s major funds). Both the government-
wide and fund financial statements categorize primary activities as either government or
business-type.
GOVERNMENT-WIDE STATEMENTS
In the Government-wide Statement of Net Assets, both the governmental and business-type
activities columns (a) are presented on a consolidated basis by column, and (b) are reported on
a full accrual, economic resource basis, which recognized all long-term assets and receivables as
well as long-term debt and obligations. The City’s net assets are reported in three parts -
investment in capital assets, net of related debt; restricted net assets; and unrestricted net
assets. The City first utilizes restricted resources to finance qualifying activities.
The Government-wide Statement of Activities reports both the gross and net cost of each of the
City’s functions and business-type activities (general government, judicial, public safety,
physical environment, transportation, economic environment, health and human services,
culture and recreation, waterworks utility, airport, solid waste utility, and golf course). General
government revenues (property taxes, timber taxes, retail sales and use taxes, business taxes,
excise taxes, and other taxes) also support the functions. The Statement of Activities reduces
gross expenses (including depreciation) by related program revenues, operating and capital
grants and contributions. Program revenues must be directly associated with the function or a
business-type activity. Operating grants include operating specific and discretionary (either
operating or capital) grants while the capital grants column reflects capital specific grants.
General revenues normally cover the net cost, by function or business-type activity.
The Government-wide focus is more on the sustainability of the City as an entity and the
change in the City’s net assets resulting from the current year’s activities.
The City’s fiduciary funds are presented in the fund financial statements. Since the assets are
being held for the benefit of a third party and cannot be used for obligations of the City, they
are not Included in the Government-wide statements.
FUND FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
In the fund financial statements, the financial transactions are recorded in individual funds,
each accounted for by a separate set of self-balancing accounts that comprise assets, liabilities,
reserves, fund equity, revenues, and expenditures or expenses. The presentation is by major
funds in either the governmental or business-type categories. GASB Statement 34 sets forth
the minimum criteria for the determination of a major fund. The non-major funds are
combined in the fund financial statements and are detailed in the combining section.
The governmental major fund statements in the fund financial statement are presented on
current financial resources and modified accrual basis of a~counting. Since governmental fund
2011 Comprehensive Annual Financial Report Oty o,f Re, ton, Washington
statements are presented on a different measurement focus and basis of accounting than the
Government-wide statements’ governmental column, reconciliation is presented at the end of
the statement, which bdefly explains the adjustments necessary to transform the fund
statements into the Government-wide presentation.
Internal service funds of a government are presented in summary form as part of the
proprietary fund financial statements. Since the principal users ofthe internal services are the
City’s governmental activities, financial statements for internal service funds are consolidated
into the governmental column when presented at the governmental level. These services are
reflected in the appropriate functional activity (general government, judicial, public safety,
physical environment, transportation, economic environment, health and human services,
culture and recreation).
Interfund fund activity has been eliminated from the Government-wide financial statements.
Exceptions are payments in lieu of taxes, external type transactions within the internal service
funds (revenue and expenses for interest or services provided to other governmental
organizations), and other charges for utilities. Elimination of these charges would distort the
direct cost and program revenues for these functions.
The following describes each fund as presented in the fund financial statements.
MAJOR FUNDS
GOVERNMENTAL FUNDS
GENERAL FUND
The General Fund is the primary operating fund of the city. It is used to account for the
resources and disbursements of ordinary City operations that are not required to be accounted
for in another fund. These include the costs of legislative and executive departments, court
services, finance and legal departments, development services, police and fire departments,

C. MEASUREMENT FOCUS AND BASIS OF ACCOUNTING
Basis of Accounting refers to the point at which revenues or expenditures/expenses are
recognized in the accounts and reported in the financial statements. It relates to the timing of
the measurement made regardless of the measurement focus applied:
1. Accrual
Both governmental and business-type activities in the Government-wide financial statements
and the proprietary and fiduciary fund financial statements are presented on the accrual basis
of accounting. Revenues are recognized when earned and expenses are recognized when
incurred.
Substantially all governmental fund revenues are accrued. Property taxes are billed and
collected within the same period in which taxes are levied. Subsidies and grants to proprietary
funds, which finance either capital or current operations, are reported as non-operating
revenue based on GASB Statement 33. in applying GASB Statement 33 to grant revenues, the
provider recognizes liabilities and expenses and the recipient recognizes receivables and
Basic Financial Stotements, 4-22
2011 Comprehensive A~nua! Finonda/ Report City of Renton, Washington
revenue when the eligibility requirements, Including time requirements, are met. Resources
transmitted before the eligibility requirements are met, are reported as advances by the
provider and deferred revenue by the recipient,
2. Modified Accrual
The governmental funds financial statements are presented on the modified basis of
accounting. Under the modified accrual basis of accounting, revenues are recorded when
susceptible to accrual: i.e., both measurable and available. "Available" means collectible within
the current period or soon enough thereafter to be used to pay liabilities of the current period.
The City considers all revenue reported In the governmental funds to be available if the
revenues are collected within sixty days after year-end. Expenditures are generally recognized
¯under the modified accrual basis of accounting when the related liability is Incurred. The
exception to this general rule is that principal and interest on general obligation long-term
debt, if any, is recognized when due.
D. ASSETS, LIABIUTIES, AND FUND EQUITY
1. Cash and Cash Equivalents
The City has defined cash and cash equivalents as cash on hand, demand deposits, and
highly liquid investments (including restricted assets) with maturity of three months or less
when purchased. These amounts are classified on the balance sheet or in the statement of net
assets as cash and cash equivalents or investments in the various funds. The interest on these
investments is prorated to the applicable funds. Included in this category are all funds invested
in the Local Government Investment Pool and Municipal Investor Account. Excluded from this
category are cash balances held by Fiscal Agents since the City does not have discretionary use
of these funds.
2. Investments (refer to Note 3B.)
3. Receivables and Payables -Amounts owed/payable to/by the City at year-end.
Taxes receivable consists of property taxes and related interest and penalties (refer to Note 4).

Accrued interest payable consists of amounts owed on notes, loans, and contracts.
Customer accounts receivable/payable consists of amounts owed from/to private individuals or
organizations for goods and services. If the transactions are with another governmental unit, it
is accounted for within "due from/to other governments."
Special assessments are recorded when levied and are liens against the property benefited.
Special assessments receivable consist of current and delinquent assessments and related
interest and penalties. Deferred assessments consist of special assessments not due within one
year.
20~1 Comprehensive Annum FinonOal Report CRy of Renton, Washington
Receivables have been reported net of estimated uncollectible accounts. Because property
taxes, special assessments, and utility billings are considered liens on pPoperty, no estimated
uncollectible amounts are established.
Activity between funds that are representative of lending/borrowing arrangements outstanding
at the end of the fiscal year are referred to either "due to/from other fundsn (i.e., the current
portion of interfund loans) or ~advances to/from Other~unds" (i.e., the non-current portion of
interfund loans). All other outstanding balances between the governmental activities and
business-type activities are reported in the Government-wide financial statements as "internal
balances~ (Refer to Note 10).
Advances between funds, as reported in the fund financial statements, are offset by a fund
balance reserve account in applicable governmental funds to indicate that they are not
available for appropriation and are not expendable available financial resources,
In the Government-wide financial statements, and proprietary fund types in the fund financial
statements, long-term liabilities are reported in applicable governmental activities, business-
type activities, or proprietary fund type statement of net assets.
Unamortized Premium - the unamortized portion of the excess of bonds proceeds over their
face value (excluding accrued interest and issuance costs).
Deferred Amount-Refunding - the difference between the carrying amount of
redeemed/defeased debt and its reacquisition pdce. This amount is deferred and amortized
over the remaining life of the debt, or the life of the new debt, whichever is shorter.
4. Inventories and prepaid items
All City inventories are maintained on a consumption basis of accounting where items are
purchased for inventory and charged to the budgetary accounts as the items are consumed.
Any material inventories at year-end are included in the balance sheet of the appropriate fund.
All inventories are carried at cost on the first in, first out- FIFO basis, with the exception of the
Public Works Maintenance shops inventory. The value of this inventory is calculated using the
average cost method. Certain payments to vendors reflect costs applicable to future accounting
periods and are reported as prepaid items in both the Government-wide and fund statements.

The City accrues accumulated unpaid vacation and other leave and associated employee-
related costs when earned (or estimated to be earned) by the employee. The non-current
portion (the amount estimated to be used in subsequent fiscal years) for governmental funds is
maintained separately and represents a reconciling item between the fund and Government-
wide presentations.

NOTE 2. COMPUANCE AND ACCOUNTABILITY
The City of Renton budgets its funds under Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) at
the fund level. Annual appropriated budgets are adopted for governmental funds on a biennial
basis. Budgets for proprietary funds are "management budgets" and are not legally required to
be reported. Included in the Required Supplemental and Combining sections of the CAFR are
Schedules of Revenues, Expenditures, and Changes in Fund Balances (Budget to Actual)
reporting the Actual Budgetary GAAP Basis verses Actual GAAP Basis of Accounti.ng for all
legally adopted budgets. There have been no material violations of finance-related legal or
contractual provisions, and there have been no expenditures exceeding legal appropriations in
any of the funds of the City.
A. PROCEDURES FOR ADOPTING THE ORIGINAL BUDGET
The City of Renton’s budget procedures are mandated by the Chapter 35A.33 of the Revised
Code of Washington (RCW). The steps in the budget process are as follows:

is based on priorities established by the Council; estimates provided by the City
departments during the preceding months; balanced by revenue estimates made by the
Mayor.
Basic Financial Stotements~ 4~26

2.The City Council conducts public hearings on the proposed budget in November and
December.
3.The Council makes their adjustments to the proposed budget and adopts, by ordinance, a
final balanced budget no later than December 31.
4.The final operating budget, as adopted, is published and distributed within the first four
months of the following year.
B. AMENDINGTHE BUDGET
The budget, as adopted, constitutes the legal authority for expenditures. Budgets are adopted
on the GAAP basis of accounting. Any comparisons between budget and actual revenues and
expenditures are reported under the GAAP basis. The biennial budget is adopted with
budgetary control at the fund level, so expenditures may not legally exceed appropriations at
that level of detail. Transfers or revisions within funds are allowed, but only the City Council
has the legal authority to increase or decrease a given fund’s annual budget.This is
accomplished by City ordinance. The budget was amended three times during 2011.

care, under circumstances then prevailing, which person of prudence, discretion, and
intelligence would use in the management of their own affairs, not for speculation, but for
investment purposes, considering the probable safety of their capital as well as the probable
income to be derived."
Custodial Credit Risk. Custodial credit risk .for investments is the risk that, in the event o.f the
.failure o.f the counter party to a transaction, a government will not be able to recover the value
o.f investment or collateral securities that are in the possession o.f an outside party. All security
transactions, including collateral for repurchase agreements, entered into by the City are

established by the Investment Policy, which limits the weighted average maturity of the
portfolio to five years.
NOTE 4. PROPERTY TAXES
The King County Finance Director acts as an agent to collect property taxes levied in the county
for all taxing authorities. Taxes are levied annually, January 1, on property value listed as of the
prior August 31. Assessed values are established by the King County Assessor at 100 percent of
fair market value. A revaluation of all property is required evew two years; however, King
County has the ability to revalue annually.
Property taxes levied by the King County Assessor and collected by the King County Finance
Director become a lien on the first day of the levy year and may be paid in two equal
installments if the total amount exceeds $30. The first half of real property taxes is due on April
30 and the balance is due October 31. Delinquent taxes bear interest at the rate of 12 percent
and are subject to additional penalties if not paid as scheduled. No allowance for uncollectible
taxes is established because delinquent taxes are considered fully collectible.
At year-end, property taxes are recorded as a receivable with the portion not expected to be
collected within 60 days offset by deferred revenue. During the year, property tax revenues are
recognized when cash is received.
The tax rate for general City operations is limited to $3.60 per $1,000 of assessed value (RCW
84.52.043). Of this amount, up to .45 cents per thousand dollars may be designated for
contribution to the Firemen’s Pension Fund. If a report by a qualified actuary on the condition
of the Firemen’s Pension Fund establishes that this amount (or portion of) is not necessary to
maintain the actuarial soundness of the fund, the amount can be used for any other municipal
purpose (RCW 41.16.060).
The tax rate limit may be reduced for any of the following reasons:
1.The Levy Limit: the lew limit calculation applies to a taxing district’s budget, and not to
increases in the assessed value or tax bill of individual properties. Initiative 747 which
restricted individual taxing districts from collecting, in any year, more than a one percent
increase in their regular, non-voted, levy over the highest levy amount since 1985 was
overturned by the courts. However dudng 2007, the state legislature reinstated this limit
Comprehensive Annuol Financial Report City o~ Re.ton, Woshlngton
with the passage of HB2416. New construction, annexations, and excess levies approved by
the voters are not included in the levy limit calculation. If the assessed valuation increases
by more than one percent due to revaluation, the levy rate will be decreased.
The One Percent Constitution Umit: The Washington State Constitution limits the regular
(non-voted) combined property tax rate applied to an individual’s property to one percent
($10 per $1,000) on the market valuation. Voters may approve special levies that are added
to this figure. If the taxes of all districts exceed this amount, each is proportionately
reduced until the total is at or below the one percent limit.
3. The City may voluntarily levy taxes below the legal limit.
Special levies approved by the voters are not subject to the above limitations. There is
currently no excess levy for General Obligation Bond debt. The City’s regular lew per the King
County Assessor’s 2011 Annual Report is 2.83207.
NOTE 5, CAPITAL ASSETS AND DEPRECIATION
A. GENERAL POUCIES

Public Emolovees" Retirement System |PERS) Plans 1, 2, and 3
Plan Description
PERS is a cost-sharing multiple-employer retirement system comprised of three separate plans
for membership purposes: Plans :1 and 2 are defined benefit plans and Plan 3 is a defined
benefit plan with a defined contribution component.
Membership in the system includes: elected officials; state employees; employees of the
Supreme, Appeals, and Superior courts (other than judges currently in a judicial retirement
system); employees of legislative committees; community and technical colleges, college and
university employees not participating in national higher education retirement programs;
judges of district and municipal courts; and employees of local governments.
PERS participants, who joined the PERS system by September 30, 1977, are Plan 1 members.
Those who joined on or after October 1, 1977; and by either, February 28, 2002 for state and
higher education employees, or August 31, 2002 for local government employees, are Plan 2
members unless they exercise an option to transfer their membership to Plan 3. PERS
participants joining the system on or after March 1, 2002 for state and higher education
2011ComprehenstveAnnuatFinon~olReport City o~ Re~ton, Washington
employees, or September 1, 2002 for local government employees, have the irrevocable option
of choosing membership in either PERS Plan 2 or PERS Plan 3. The option must be exercised
within 90 days of employment. An employee is reported in Plan 2 until a choice is made.
Employees who fail to choose within 90 days default to PERS Plan 3. Notwithstandin& PERS
Plan 2 and Plan 3 members may opt out of plan membership if terminally ill, with less than five
years to live.
PERS defined benefit retirement benefits are financed from a combination of investment
earnings and employer and employee contributions. PERS retirement benefit provisions are
established in state statute and may be amended only by the State Legislature.
PERS Plan 1 members are vested after the completion of five years of eligible service. Plan 1
members are eligible for retirement at any age after 30 years of service, or at age 60 with five
years of service, or at age 55 with 25 years of service. The annual benefit is two percent of the
average final compensation (AFC) per year of service, capped at 60 percent. (The AFC is based
on the greatest compensation during any 24 eligible consecutive compensation months.) Plan
1 members who retire from inactive status prior to the age of 6S may receive actuarially
reduced benefits. The benefit is actuarlally reduced to reflect the choice of a survivor option. A
cost-of-living allowance (COLA) is granted at age 66 based on years of service credit times the
COLA amount, increased by three percent annually. Plan 1 members may also elect to receive
an additional COLA amount that provides an automatic annual adjustment based on the
Consumer Price index. To offset the cost of this annual adjustment, the benefit is reduced.
PERS Plan 2 members are vested after completion of five years of eligible service. Plan 2
members may retire at age 65 with five years of service with an allowance of two percent of the
AFC per year of service. (The AFC is based on the greatest compensation during any eligible
consecutive 60-month period.) Plan 2 members who retire prior to the age of 65 receive
reduced benefits. If retirement is at 55 or older with at least 30 years of service, a three
percent per year reduction applies; otherwise an actuarial reduction will apply. The benefit is
also actuarially reduced to reflect the choice of a survivor option. There is no cap on years of
service credit; and a cost-of-living allowance is granted (based on the Consumer Price Index),
capped at three percent annually.
PERS Plan 3 has a dual benefit structure. Employer contributions finance a defined benefit
component, and member contributions finance a defined contribution component. The
defined benefit portion provides a benefit calculation at one percent of the AFC per year of
service. (The AFC ls based on the greatest compensation during any eligible consecutive
month period.) Effective June 7, 2006, Plan 3 members are vested in the defined benefit
portion of their plan after ten years of service; or after five years if twelve months were earned
after age 44; or after five service credit years earned in PERS 2 prior to June 1, 2003. Plan 3
members are immediateF/vested in the defined contribution portion of their plan. Vested Plan
3 members are eligible to retire with full benefits at age 65, or at age 55 with :10 years of
service. Plan 3 members who retire prior to age 65 receive reduced benefits. If retirement is at
age 55 or older with at least 30 years of service, a three percent per year reduction applies;
otherwise an actuarial reduction will apply. The benefit is also actuarially reduced to reflect the
2011 Comprehensive Annual Financial Report City oJ Renton, Washington
choice of a survivor option. There is no cap on years of service credit; and Plan 3 provides the
same cost-of-living allowance as Plan 2.
The defined contribution portion can be distributed in accordance with an option selected by
the member, either as a lump sum or pursuant to other options authorized by the Employee
Retirement Benefits Board.
Judicial Benefit Multiplier
Beginning January 1, 2007 through December 31, 2007 judicial members of PERS were given
the choice to participate in the Judicial Benefit Program (JBM). Justices and judges in PERS 1
and 2 may make a one-time irrevocable election to pay increased contributions that would fund
a retirement benefit with a 3.5% multiplier. The benefit would be capped at 75% of AFC.
Judges in PERS Plan 3 can elect a 1.6% of pay per year of service benefit, capped at 37.5% of
average compensation.
Members who choose to participate In JBM will accrue service credit at a higher multiplier
beginning with the date of their election, be subject to the benefit cap of 75% of AFC, pay
higher contributions, stop contributing to the Judicial Retirement Account (JRA), and be given
the option to increase the multiplier on past judicial service. Members who do not choose to
participate will: continue to accrue service credit at the regular multiplier; continue to
participate io JRA, if applicable; never be a participant in the JBM Program; and continue to pay
contributions at the regular PERS rate.
Newly elected or appointed justices and judges who chose to become PERS members on or
after January 1, 2007, or who have not previously opted into PERS membership, were required
to participate in the JBM Program. Members required into the JBM program would: return to
prior PERS Plan if membership had previously been established; be mandated into Plan 2 and
not have a Plan 3 transfer choice, if a new PERS member; accrue the higher multiplier for all
judicial service; not contribute to JRA; and not have the option to increase the multiplier for
past judicial service.
Membership in PERS consisted of the following as of the latest actuarial valuation date for the
plans of June 30, 2010:
Retirees and benefldades receiving benefits 76,899

Funding Policy
Each biennium, the state Pension Funding Council adopts Plan 1 employer contribution rates,
Plan 2 employer and employee contributions rates, and Plan 3 employer contribution rates.
Employee contribution rates for Plan 1 are established by statute at six percent for state
agencies and local government unit employees, and 7.5 percent for state government elected
officials. The employer and employee contribution rates for Plan 2 and the employer
contribution rate for Plan 3 are developed by the Office of the State Actuary to fully fund Plan 2
and the defined benefit portion of Plan 3. All employers are required to contribute at the level
established by the Legislature. Under PERS 3, employer contributions finance the defined
benefit portion of the plan, and member contributions finance the defined contribution
portion. The Employee Retirement Benefits Board sets Plan 3 employee contribution rates. Six
rate options are available ranging from 5 to 15 percent; two of the options are graduated rates
dependent on the employee’s age. As a result of the implementation of the Judicial Benefit
Multiplier Program in January 2007, a second tier of employer and employee rates was
developed to fund, along with investment earnings, the increased retirement benefits of those
justices and judges that participate in the program. The methods used to determine the
contribution requirements are established under state statute in accordance with Chapters
41.40 and 41.45 RCW.
The required contribution rates expressed as a percentage of current-year covered payroll, as
of December 31, 2011, were as follows:

Plan Descdptlon
LEOFF is a cost-sharing multiple-employer retirement system comprised of two separate
defined benefit plans. LEOFF participants who joined the system by September 30, 1977, are
Plan 1 members. Those who joined on or after October 1, 1977, are Plan 2 members.
Membership in the system includes all full-time, fully compensated; local law enforcement
officers, flrefighters and as of July 24, 2005, those emergency medical technicians who were
given the option and chose LEOFF Plan 2 membership. LEOFF membership is comprised
primarily of non-state employees, with the Department of Fish and Wildlife enforcement
officers, who were first included prospectively effective July 27, 2003, being an exception.
Effective July 1, 2003, the LEOFF Plan 2 Retirement Board was established by Initiative 790 to
provide governance of LEOFF Plan 2. The Board’s duties include adopting contribution rates
and recommending policy changes to the Legislature for the LEOFF Plan 2 retirement plan.
LEOFF defined benefit retirement benefits are financed from a combination of investment
earnings, employer and employee contributions, and a special funding situation in which the
state pays through state legislative appropriations. LEOFF retirement benefit provisions are
established in state statute and may be amended by the State Legislature.
LEOFF Plan 1 members are vested after the completion of five years of eligible service. Plan 1
members are eligible for retirement with five years of service at the age of S0. The benefit per
year of service calculated as a percent of final average salary (FAS) is as follows:

Term of Sertd=e AveraEe Sala~
20 or more years 2.0%

The FAS is the basic monthly salary received at the time of retirement, provided a member has
held the same position or rank for 12 months preceding the date of retirement. Otherwise, it is
the average of the highest consecutive 24 months’ salary within the last ten years of service. A
cost-of-living allowance is granted (~ndexed to the Consumer Price Index).
LEOFF Plan 2 members are vested after the completion of five years of eligible service. Plan 2
members may retire at the age of S0 with 20 years of service, or at age 53 with five years of
service, with an allowance of two percent of the FAS per year of service. The FAS is based on
the highest consecutive 60 months. Plan 2 members who retire prior to age 53 receive reduced
benefits. Benefits are actuarially reduced for each year that the benefit commences prior to age
53 and to reflect the choice of a survivor option. If the member has at least 20 years of service
credit and is age 50, the reduction is three percent for each year prior to age 53. There is no
cap on years of service credit; and a cost-of-living allowance is granted (indexed to the
Consumer Price Index), capped at three percent annually.
Membership in LEOFF consisted of the following as of the latest actuarial valuation date for the
plans of June 30, 2010:

and before the valuation was released.
Significant actuarial assumptions used in the January 1, 2011, valuation include:
Valuation date: January 1, 2011
Actuarial cost method: entry age normal
Amortization method: 30-year, closed as of January 1, 2000
Remaining amortization period: 20 years
Asset valuation method: fair value
Actuarial assumptions: 1) investment rate of return - 4%; 2) projected salary increases -
3.75%; 3) inflation - 2.75%; and, 4) cost-of-living adjustments - based upon salary increase
assumption for FPF benefits, inflation assumption for LEOFF benefits.
The Annual Required Contribution (ARC) was computed using the Entry Age Normal Cost
Method. Under this method the projected benefits are allocated on a level basis as a
percentage of salary over the earnings of each individual between entry age and assumed exit
age. The amount allocated to each year is called the Normal Cost and the portion of the
Actuarial Present Value of all benefits not provided for by future Normal Cost payments is
called the Actuarial Accrued Liability. Since all members have already retired, the amount of
the Normal Cost is zero. The Unfunded Actuarial Accrued Liability (UAAL) is the Actuarial
Accrued Uability minus the actuarial value of the Fund’s assets.
The following Annual Pension Cost and Net Pension Obligation table presents the annual
Normal Cost and the ARC as of January 1, 2011, assuming the UAAL is amortized over a closed

member is not required to contribute to the cost of the plan.
Annual OPEB Cost and Net OPEB Obli£ation

normal cost each year and to amortize any unfunded actuarial liabilities over a pedod not to
exceed thirty years. The following table shows the components of the City’s annual OPEB cost
for the year, the amount actually contributed to the plan, and changes in the City’s net OPEB

Funded Status and Funding Progress
As of January 1, 2011, the most recent actuarial valuation date, the plan was 0% funded. The
accrued liability for benefits was $27,835,211 and the actuarial value of the assets was $0
resulting in an unfunded actuarial accrued liability (UAAL) of $27,835,211. The covered payroll
was $434,132, and the ratio of the UAAL to the covered payroll was 6411.70 percent. Net
assets of $5,342,695 restricted in the insurance Fund for the purpose of funding a portion of
the UAAL.
Actuarial valuations involve estimates of the value of reported amounts and assumptions about
the probability of occurrence of events far into the future. Amounts determined regarding the
funded status of the plan and the annual required contributions of the employer are subject to
continual revision as actual results are compared with past expectations and new estimates are
made about the future.

2011 Comprehensive Annual Flnenczol Report Ctty of Renten, Washington
The schedule of funding progress, presented as required supplementary information following
the notes to the financial statements, presents mufti-year trend information that shows
whether the actuarial value of plan assets is increasing or decreasing over time relative to the
actuarial liabilities for benefits.
Actuarial Methods and Assumptions
Projections of benefits for financial reporting purposes are based on the substantive plan (the
plan as understood by the employer and plan members) and include the types of benefits
provided at the time of each valuation. The actuarial methods and assumptions used include
techniques that are designed to reduce the effects of short-term voietility in actuarial accrued
liabilities, consistent with the long-term perspective of the calculations.
The January 1, 2011 actuarial valuation report was prepared using the projected unit credit
method. The actuarial assumptions used included a 4.00% discount rate, which is based upon
the long-term investment yield on the investments that are expected to be used to finance the
payment of benefits. The following health care trend rate assumptions were used:

2018 5.8%5.8%4.0%2.0%
2019 +5.5%5.5%4.0%2.01
The UAAL is being amortized based on a level dollar amortization over a closed 30 year-period
that began in 2008 at the assumed discount rate.
NOTE 8. CONTINGENCIES
The City has recorded in its financial statements all material liabilities, including an estimate for
situations that are not yet resolved but where, based on available information, management
believes it is probable that the City will have to make payment. In the opinion of management,
the City’s insurance policies and/or self-insurance reserves are adequate to pay all known or
pending claims.
Contingencies under Grant Provisions
The City participates in a number of federal and state assisted programs. These grants are
subject to audit by the grantors of their representatives. Such audits could result in requests
for reimbursement to grantor agencies for expenditures disallowed under the terms of the
grants. The City’s management believes that such disallowances, if any, will be immaterial.

NOTE 9. RISK MANAGEMENT
The City of Renton is exposed to various risks of loss related to tort; theft of, damage to, and
destruction of assets; errors and omissions; lnjudes to employees; and natural disasters. The
City of Renton protects itself against unforeseen losses by utilizing a thr:ee-pronged risk
management approach. First, the City self-funds first level losses through its Insurance Fund.
Second, excess insurance is purchased to cover medium and large losses. Third, the City
reserves the right to utilize the provisions of Chapter 35A.31.060 RCW to fund catastrophic or
uninsured losses. This State statute allows cities to levy a non-voted property tax increase to
pay for uninsured claims. An analysis of the self-insurance retention levels, limits of insurance,
and claims administrator for the major types of coverage are as follows:

There is a 4-hour utility interrup~ion clause, prior to the deductJble becoming applicable.
For policy term January 1, 2012 to January 1, 2013, there were no reductions in insurance
coverage and an increase in premiums; however, settlements for the last three years have not
exceeded insurance coverage.
The City of Renton is a member of the Washington Cities Insurance Authority (WCIA).
Utilizing Chapter 48.62 RCW (self-insurance regulation) and Chapter 39.34 RCW (Interlocal
Cooperation Act), nine cries originally formed WCIA on January 1, 1981. WCIA was created for
the purpose of providing a pooling mechanism for jointly purchasing insurance, jointly self-
insuring, and/or jointly contracting for risk management services. WCIA has a total of 150
members.
New members initially contract for a three-year term and thereafter automatically renew on an
annual basis. A one-year withdrawal notice is required before membership can be terminated.
Termination does not relieve a former member from its unresolved loss history incurred during
membership.
Liability coverage is written on an occurrence basis, without deductibles. Coverage includes
general, automobile, police, public officials’ errors or omissions, stop gap, and employee
benefits liability. Limits are ~4 million per occurrence self insured layer, and ~>16 million per
occurrence in the re-insured excess layer. The excess layer is insured by the purchase of
reinsurance and insurance and is subject to aggregate limits. Total limits are $20 million per
Basic Financial Statements, 4~52
2011 Comprehensive Annuol FInanclo! Report City of Renton, Washington
occurrence subject to aggregate sublimits in the excess layers. The Board of Directors
determines the limits and terms of coverage annually.
Insurance coverage for property, automobile physical damage, fidelity, inland marine, and boiler
and machinery are purchased on a group basis. Various deductibles apply by type of coverage.
Property insurance and auto physical damage are self-funded from the members’ deductible to
~;500,000 for all perils other than flood and earthquake, and insured above that amount by the
purchase of insurance.
In-house services include risk management consultation, loss control field services, claims and
litigation administration, and loss analyses. WCIA contracts for the claims investigation
consultants for personnel issues and land use problems, insurance brokerage and lobbyist
services.
WCIA is fully funded by its members, who make annual assessments on a prospectively rated
basis; as determined by an outside, independent actuary: The assessment covers loss, loss
adjustment, and administrative expenses. As outlined in the interlocal, WClA retains the right to
additionally assess the membership for any funding shortfall.
An investment committee, using investment brokers, produces additional revenue by
investment of WCIA’s assets in financial instruments which comply with all State guidelines.
These revenues directly offset portions of the membership’s annual assessment.
A Board of Directors governs WClA, which is comprised of one designated representative from
each member. The Board elects an Executive Committee and appoints a Treasurer to provide
general policy direction for the organization. The WClA Executive Director reports to the
Executive Committee and is responsible for conducting the day to day operations of WClA.
The City’s Risk Management Program is administered by the Human Resources and Risk
Management Administrator, with claims being processed by the independent claims
administrators noted above. As of December 31, 2011, the City had accrued the following
amounts for outstanding claims:

NOTE 11. NETASSETS
The Government-wide and business type fund financial statements utilize a net asset
presentation. Net assets are the difference between assets and liabilities. Net assets are
categorized as investments in capital assets (net of related debt), restricted, and unrestricted.
A.Investment in Capital Assets (net of related debt) is intended to reflect the portion of net
assets that are associated with non-liquid, capital assets less outstanding capital asset
related debt.
The net related debt is the debt less the outstanding liquid assets and any associated
unamortized costs.
Restricted net assets are liquid assets (generated from revenues and not bond proceeds),
which have third party (statutory, bond covenant, or granting agency) limitations on their
use. The City would typically use restricted net assets first, as appropriated opportunities
arise, but reserve the right to selectively defer the use thereof to a future project or
replacement equipment acquisition.
Restricted governmental activity net assets are as follows:
Unrestricted net assets represent unrestricted liquid assets. Unrestricted Governmental
Activities have committed and assigned designations that reflect the City Council and
management’s plans and commitments to expend resources for certain purposes in future
periods. Funds with committed designations reflect amounts constrained by the City
Council, either through formal budget adoption or other purposes formally approved by the
2011 Complehenslve Annual FinanQal Report
Council. Amounts with assigned designations reflect all amounts remaining in
governmental funds, other than the general fund, not classified as nonspendable, restricted
or committed. Assigned amounts also include year-end encumbrances that have received
approval from the City Council and re-appropriated in the following year’s carry forward
budget. The City’s financial policies require a maximum amount of 12% and minimum of
8% fund balance to remain in the general fund for cash flow purposes.
Unrestricted governmental net assets are classified as follows:
NOTE 12. PRIOR PERIOD ADJUSTMENTS
Business-Type Activities
A prior period adjustment of $1,066,493 was made to reduce revenue and receivable balances
for Special Assessment District principal. This amount is for outstanding principal not due to
the City until the effected property owners take action to connect to the wastewater system. In
prior years this outstanding amount was recorded as a revenue and receivable.
NOTE 13. LONG TERM DEBT
The City of Renton’s long-term debt consists of General Obligation Debt, repaid mainly from
general governmental revenue sources, Proprietary Debt, repaid from proprietary revenues and
compensated absences/other post employment benefits. These debts are accounted for in the
following areas: 1) The outstanding general obligation debt is reported in the Government-
wide financial statements; 2) The repayment, or debt service of the same, is recorded in the
Debt Service Funds; and, 3) The proprietary debt liability and repayment of the same are
reported in individual Proprietary Funds. Compensated absences and other post employment
benefits are generally liquidated mainly from the general fund and to a lesser extent, the
internal service funds.

APPENDIX E
BOOK-ENTRY TRANSFER SYSTEM
The following information has been provided by DTC. The City makes no representation regarding the accuracy or
completeness thereof. Beneficial Owners should therefore confirm the following with DTC or the Direct
Participants (as hereinafter defined). Language in [brackets] with ~:;-i!:c t!;;7".:;gh has been deleted as permitted by
DTC as it does not pertain to the Bonds.
1. The Depository Trust Company ("DTC"), New York, NY, will act as securities depository for the
securities (the "Securities"). The Securities will be issued as fully-registered securities registered in the name of
Cede & Co. (DTC’s partnership nominee) or such other name as may be requested by an authorized representative
of DTC. One fully-registered Security certificate will be issued for [each ~’ae eft the Securities, [each] in the
aggregate principal amount of such issue, and will be deposited with DTC. [If, he~:.’ever, tke aggregate r ...... r~
is~..]
2. DTC, the world’s largest securities depository, is a limited-purpose trust company organized under
the New York Banking Law, a "banking organization" within the meaning of the New York Banking Law, a
member of the Federal Reserve System, a "cleating corporation" within the meaning of the New York Uniform
Commercial Code, and a "clearing agency" registered pursuant to the provisions of Section 17A of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934. DTC holds and provides asset servicing for over 3.5 million issues of U.S. and non-U.S.
equity issues, corporate and municipal debt issues, and money market instruments (from over 100 countries) that
DTC’s participants ("Direct Participants") deposit with DTC. DTC also facilitates the post-trade settlement among
Direct Participants of sales and other securities transactions in deposited securities, through electronic computerized
book-entry transfers and pledges between Direct Participants’ accounts. This eliminates the need for physical
movement of securities certificates. Direct Participants include both U.S. and non-U.S, securities brokers and
dealers, banks, trust companies, clearing corporations, and certain other organizations. DTC is a wholly-owned
subsidiary of The Depository Trust & Cleating Corporation ("DTCC"). DTCC is the holding company for DTC,
National Securities Cleating Corporation and Fixed Income Clearing Corporation, all of which are registered
cleating agencies. DTCC is owned by the users of its regulated subsidiaries. Access to the DTC system is also
available to others such as both U.S. and non-U.S, securities brokers and dealers, banks, trust companies, and
clearing corporations that clear through or maintain a custodial relationship with a Direct Participant, either directly
or indirectly ("Indirect Participants"). DTC has Standard & Poor’s rating of AA+. The DTC Rules applicable to its
Participants are on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission. More information about DTC can be found at
www.dtcc.com.
3. Purchases of Securities under the DTC system must be made by or through Direct Participants,
which will receive a credit for the Securities on DTC’s records. The ownership interest of each actual purchaser of
each Security ("Beneficial Owner") is in turn to be recorded on the Direct and Indirect Participants’ records.
Beneficial Owners will not receive written confirmation from DTC of their purchase. Beneficial Owners are,
however, expected to receive written confirmations providing details of the transaction, as well as periodic
statements of their holdings, from the Direct or Indirect Participant through which the Beneficial Owner entered into
the transaction. Transfers of ownership interests in the Securities are to be accomplished by entries made on the
books of Direct and Indirect Participants acting on behalf of Beneficial Owners. Beneficial Owners will not receive
certificates representing their ownership interests in Securities, except in the event that use of the book-entry system
for the Securities is discontinued.
4. To facilitate subsequent transfers, all Securities deposited by Direct Participants with DTC are
registered in the name of DTC’s partnership nominee, Cede & Co., or such other name as may be requested by an
authorized representative of DTC. The deposit of Securities with DTC and their registration in the name of Cede &
Co. or such other DTC nominee do not effect any change in beneficial ownership. DTC has no knowledge of the
actual Beneficial Owners of the Securities; DTC’s records reflect only the identity of the Direct Participants to
whose accounts such Securities are credited, which may or may not be the Beneficial Owners. The Direct and
Indirect Participants will remain responsible for keeping account of their holdings on behalf of their customers.
E-1
5. Conveyance of notices and other communications by DTC to Direct Participants, by Direct
Participants to Indirect Participants, and by Direct Participants and Indirect Participants to Beneficial Owners will be
governed by arrangements among them, subject to any statutory or regulatory requirements as may be in effect from
time to time. [Beneficial Owners of Securities may wish to take certain steps to augment the transmission to them of
notices of significant events with respect to the Securities, such as redemptions, tenders, defaults, and proposed
amendments to the Security documents. For example, Beneficial Owners of Securities may wish to ascertain that the
nominee holding the Securities for their benefit has agreed to obtain and transmit notices to Beneficial Owners. In
the alternative, Beneficial Owners may wish to provide their names and addresses to the registrar and request that
copies of notices be provided directly to them.]
[6. Redemption notices shall be sent to DTC. If less than all of the Securities within an issue are being
redeemed, DTC’s practice is to determine by lot the amount of the interest of each Direct Participant in such issue to
be redeemed.]
7. Neither DTC nor Cede & Co. (nor any other DTC nominee) will consent or vote with respect to
Securities unless authorized by a Direct Participant in accordance with DTC’s MMI Procedures. Under its usual
procedures, DTC malls an Omnibus Proxy to Issuer as soon as possible after the record date. The Omnibus Proxy
assigns Cede & Co.’s consenting or voting rights to those Direct Participants to whose accounts Securities are
credited on the record date (identified in a listing attached to the Omnibus Proxy).
8. Redemption proceeds, distributions, and dividend payments on the Securities will be made to Cede
& Co., or such other nominee as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC. DTC’s practice is to
credit Direct Participants’ accounts upon DTC’s receipt of funds and corresponding detail information from Issuer
or Agent, on payable date in accordance with their respective holdings shown on DTC’s records. Payments by
Participants to Beneficial Owners will be governed by standing instructions and customary practices, as is the case
with securities held for the accounts of customers in bearer form or registered in "street name," and will be the
responsibility of such Participant and not of DTC, Agent, or Issuer, subject to any statutory or regulatory
requirements as may be in effect from time to time. Payment of redemption proceeds, distributions, and dividend
payments to Cede & Co. (or such other nominee as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC) is the
responsibility of Issuer or Agent, disbursement of such payments to Direct Participants will be the responsibility of
DTC, and disbursement of such payments to the Beneficial Owners will be the responsibility of Direct and Indirect
Participants.
10. DTC may discontinue providing its services as depository with respect to the Securities at any time
by giving reasonable notice to Issuer or Agent. Under such circumstances, in the°event that a successor depository is
not obtained, Security certificates are required to be printed and delivered.
1 I. Issuer may decide to discontinue use of the system of book-entry-only transfers through DTC (or a
successor securities depository). In that event, Security certificates will be printed and delivered to DTC.
12. The information in this section concerning DTC and DTC’s book-entry system has been obtained
from sources that Issuer believes to be reliable, but Issuer takes no responsibility for the accuracy thereof.

CITY OF RENTON, WASHINGTON
WATER AND SEWER REVENUE REFUNDING BONDS, 2012
DATED: Date of Initial Delivery DUE: December 1, as shown herein
The City of Rentun, Washington (the "City"), Water and Sewer Revenue Refunding Bonds, 2012 (the "Bonds"), will be issued
as fully registered bonds in the name of Cede & Co., as Registered Owner and as nominee for The Depository Trust Company,
New York, New York ("DTC’). DTC will act as securities depository for the Bonds. Individual purchases and sales of the
Bonds may be made in book-entry form only in denominations of $5,000 or any integral multiple thereof within a maturity..
Purchasers will not receive certificates representing their interest in the Bonds. See "THE BONDS."
The Bonds bear interest payable semiannually on each June 1 and December 1, beginning June 1, 2013, until maturity or prior
redemption of the Bonds. The principal of and interest on the Bonds are payable by the fiscal agency of the State of
Washington, currently The Bank of New York Mellon in New York, New York (the "Bond Registrar"). For so long as the
Bonds remain in a "book-entry only" transfer system, the Bond Registrar will make such payments only to DTC, which, in
turn, is obligated to remit such principal and interest to the DTC participants for subsequent disbursement to Beneficial Owners
of the Bonds as described herein under Appendix E--"BOOK-ENTRY SYSTEM."
The Bonds are subject to redemption prior to maturity as provided herein. See "THE BONDS--Redemption."
The Bonds are being issued to refund certain maturities of the City’s Water and Sewer Revenue Improvement and Refunding
Bonds, 2004, and to pay costs of issuance of the Bonds. See "USE OF PROCEEDS."
Maturity Dates, Principal Amounts, Interest Rates, Yields, Prices and CUSIP Numbers on Inside Cover
The Bonds are secured by a pledge of Gross Revenue of the City’s combined water, sewer, wastewater and storm drainage
system (the "Waterworks Utility") after payment of Cost of Maintenance and Operation (the "Net Revenue"). The lien of the
Bonds on Net Revenues is equal to the lien securing the Outstanding Parity Bonds (as defined herein) and superior to all other
charges of any kind. The City reserves the fight to issue Future Parity Bonds upon compliance with certain conditions.
See "SECURITY AND SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE BONDS."
THE BONDS ARE SPECIAL OBLIGATIONS OF THE CITY PAYABLE ONLY FROM THE BOND FUND AND
RESERVE FUND. THE BONDS DO NOT CONSTITUTE GENERAL OBLIGATIONS OF THE CITY OR THE STATE OF
WASHINGTON (THE "STATE"), OR ANY POLITICAL SUBDIVISION OF THE STATE, OR A CHARGE UPON ANY
GENERAL FUND OR UPON ANY MONEY OR OTHER PROPERTY OF THE CITY OR OF THE STATE, OR OF ANY
POLITICAL SUBDIVISION OF THE STATE, NOT SPECIFICALLY PLEDGED BY THE BOND ORDINANCE.
See "SECURITY AND SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE BONDS."
The City has designated the Bonds as "qualified tax-exempt obligations" within the meaning of Section 265(b)(3)(B) of the
Code.
The Bonds are offered when, as and if issued, subject to the approving legal opinion of Pacifica Law Group LLP, Seattle,
Washington, Bond Counsel, and certain other conditions. It is anticipated that the Bonds in definitive book-entry form will be
available for delivery through the facilities of DTC in New York, New York, or to the Bond Registrar on behalf of DTC by Fast
Automated Securities Transfer on or about December 7, 2012.

CITY OF RENTON, WASHINGTON
WATER AND SEWER REVENUE REFUNDING BONDS, 2012
INTRODUCTION
The City of Renton, Washington (the "City"), a municipal corporation duly organized and existing under the laws of the
State of Washington (the "State"), furnishes this Official Statement in connection with the offering of $9,190,000
aggregate principal amount of Water and Sewer Revenue Refunding Bonds, 2012 (the "Bonds").
The Bonds are issued pursuant to Ordinance No. 5672, passed by the Council on October 15, 2012 (the "Bond
Ordinance"), and under and in accordance with the Renton Municipal Code and the laws and provisions of the State,
including chapters 39.46, 35.92 and 39.53 of the Revised Code of Washington ("RCW"). Capitalized terms not
otherwise defmed herein shall have the meanings set forth in Appendix A---"COPY OF THE BOND ORDINANCE."
This Official Statement provides information concerning the City, the Bonds and the City’s combined water, sewer,
wastewater and storm drainage systems, as the same may be added to, improved and extended (the "Waterworks
Utility"). The Bonds are issued on a parity of lien with the following obligations of the Waterworks Utility:
¯Water and Sewer Revenue Refunding Bonds, 1998 (the "1998 Bonds") currently outstanding in the aggregate
principal amount of $360,000, which are expected to be redeemed, in whole, on December 1, 2012 with
available funds of the City;
¯Water and Sewer Revenue Bonds, 2002 (the "2002 Bonds") currently outstanding in the aggregate principal
mount of $1,025,000;
¯Water and Sewer Revenue Refunding Bonds, 2003 (the "2003 Bonds") currently outstanding in the aggregate
principal amount of $415,000;
¯Water and Sewer Revenue Bonds, 2004 (the "2004 Bonds") currently outstanding in the aggregate principal
amount of $10,335,000, of which $9,045,000 will be refunded with proceeds of the Bonds;
¯Water and Sewer Revenue and Refunding Bonds, 2007 (the "2007 Bonds") currently outstanding in the
aggregate principal amount of $9,705,000;
¯Water and Sewer Revenue Bonds, 2008 Series A (the "2008A Bonds") currently outstanding in the aggregate
principal amount of $9,975,000; and
¯Water and Sewer Revenue Bonds, 2008 Series B (the "2008B Bonds") currently outstanding in the aggregate
principal amount of $2,035,000.
The 1998 Bonds, 2002 Bonds, 2003 Bonds, 2004 Bonds, 2007 Bonds, 2008A Bonds, and 2008B Bonds are collectively
referred to as the "Outstanding Parity Bonds." See "DEBT INFORMATION" herein. The Bonds are being issued to
refund a portion of the callable maturities of the 2004 Bonds, and to pay costs of issuance of the Bonds. See "USE OF
PROCEEDS" herein. The City has reserved the right in the Bond Ordinance to issue additional bonds (the "Future
Parity Bonds") with a lien on Gross Revenue (as defined herein) of the Waterworks Utility on a parity with the lien of
the Outstanding Parity Bonds and the Bonds upon satisfaction of certain conditions. See "SECURITY AND
SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE BONDS--Future Parity Bonds." The Outstanding Parity Bonds, the Bonds and
any Future Parity Bonds are collectively referred to as the "Parity Bonds."
The Bonds are revenue obligations of the Waterworks Utility. Neither the full faith and credit nor the taxing power of
the City is pledged to the payment of the Bonds. The Bonds are not obligations of the State or any political subdivision
thereof other than the City. See "SECURITY AND SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE BONDS."
THE BONDS
General
The Bonds will be dated their date of delivery and will be issued in fully registered form in denominations of $5,000
each or integral multiples thereof within a maturity. The Bonds will mature on the dates and in the principal amounts
and will bear interest from their date, payable on June 1, 2013, and semiannually thereafter on December 1 and June 1
of each year, at the rates set forth on the inside cover of this Official Statement. Interest on the Bonds will be calculated
on the basis of a year of 360 days and twelve 30-day months.
The Bonds will be issued in registered form, initially registered in the name Cede & Co., as nominee for The Depository
Trust Company, New York, New York ("DTC"). Individual purchases of the Bonds will be made initially in
book-entry form only and purchasers will not receive certificates representing their interest in the Bonds purchased. So
long as Cede & Co. is the Registered Owner of the Bonds, as nominee of DTC, references herein to the Registered
Owners or bond owners will mean Cede & Co. and will not mean the "Beneficial Owners" of the Bonds. In this
Official Statement, the term "Beneficial Owner" will mean the person for whom a DTC participant acquires an interest
in the Bonds. See Appendix E--"BOOK-ENTRY SYSTEM."
Bond Registrar
The City has adopted the system of registration for the Bonds approved, from time to time, by the State Finance
Committee of the State (the "Committee"). Pursuant to chapter 43.80 RCW, the Committee designates one or more
fiscal agencies for bonds issued within the State. The State’s fiscal agent, currently The Bank of New York Mellon,
New York, New York (the ’~ond Registrar"), will authenticate the Bonds and act as the paying agent and registrar for
the purpose of paying the principal of and interest on the Bonds, recording the purchase and registration, exchange or
transfer, and payment of Bonds and performing the other respective obligations of the paying agent and registrar. No
resignation or removal of the Bond Registrar shal! become effective until a successor has been appointed and has
accepted the duties of Bond Registrar.
To meet payment requirements for the Bonds as the same becomes due and payable, the City will remit money from the
Waterworks Revenue Bond Fund, 2012 held under the Bond Ordinance (the "Bond Fund") to the Bond Registrar. See
"SECURITY AND SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE BONDS~Funds and Accounts" herein. The Bond Registrar
will in turn remit such principal and interest to DTC participants for subsequent disbursement to the Beneficial Owners
of the Bonds as described in Appendix E--"BOOK-ENTRY SYSTEM." In the event that the Bonds are no longer held
by a depository, interest on the Bonds will be paid by check or draft mailed to the Registered Owners at the addresses
for such Registered Owners appearing on the Bond Register on the 15th day of the month preceding the interest
payment date, and principal of the Bonds shall be payable upon presentation and surrender of such Bonds by the
Registered Owners at the principal office of the Bond Registrar; provided, however, that if so requested in writing by
the Registered Owner of at least $1,000,000 principal amount of Bonds, interest will be paid by wire transfer on the date
due to an account with a bank located within the United States.
Redemption
Optional Redemption. The Bonds maturing in years 2013 through 2022, inclusive, are not subject to optional
redemption prior to maturity. The Bonds maturing on or after December 1, 2023 are subject to redemption at the option
of the City, in whole or in part (and if in part, with maturities to be selected by the City) on any date on or after
December 1, 2022 at the price equal to the principal amount to be redeemed, without premium, plus accrued interest, if
any, to the date fixed for redemption.
For as long as the Bonds are held by DTC, if fewer than all of the Bonds of a maturity are called for redemption, the
selection of Bonds within a maturity to be redeemed shall be made by DTC in accordance with its operational
procedures then in effect. If the Bonds are no longer held by a depository, the selection of such Bonds to be redeemed
and the surrender and reissuance thereof, as applicable, shall be made as provided in the Bond Ordinance. If the City
redeems at any one time fewer than all of the Bonds having the same maturity date, the particular Bonds or portions of
Bonds of such maturity to be redeemed shall be selected by lot (or in such manner determined by the Bond Registrar) in
increments of $5,000. In the ease of a Bond of a denomination greater than $5,000, the City and the Bond Registrar
shall treat each Bond as representing such number of separate Bonds each of the denomination of $5,000 as is obtained
by dividing the actual principal amount of such Bond by $5,000. In the event that only a portion of the principal sum of
a Bond is redeemed, upon surrender of such Bond at the principal office of the Bond Registrar there shall be issued to
the Registered Owner, without charge therefor, for the then unredeemed balance of the principal sum thereof, at the
option of the Registered Owner, a Bond or Bonds of like maturity and interest rate in any of the denominations
authorized in the Bond Ordinance.
Notice of Redemption. For so long as the Bonds are held by DTC, notice of redemption (which notice may be
conditional) shall be given in accordance with the operational arrangements of DTC as then in effect, and neither the
City nor the Bond Registrar will provide any notice of redemption to any Beneficial Owners. Thereafter (if the Bonds
are no longer held by DTC), notice of redemption shall be given in the manner as provided in the Bond Ordinance.
Unless waived by any owner of Bonds to be redeemed, official notice of any such redemption (which redemption may
be conditioned by the Bond Registrar on the receipt of sufficient funds for redemption or otherwise) shall be given by
the Bond Registrar on behalf of the City by mailing a copy of an official redemption notice by first class mail at least
20 days and not more than 60 days prior to the date fixed for redemption to the Registered Owner of the Bond or Bonds
to be redeemed at the address shown on the Register or at such other address as is furnished in writing by such
Registered Owner to the Bond Registrar.
Open Market Purchase
The City has reserved the fight at any time to use any surplus Net Revenue of the Waterworks Utility available after
providing for the payments required by paragraphs (1) through (6) described below under "SECURITY AND
SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE BONDS~Flow of Funds," or other available funds, to purchase for retirement
any of the Bonds at any price deemed reasonable by the City.
Defeasance
In the event that money and/or "Government Obligations," as defined in chapter 39.53 RCW, as it may be amended,
maturing at such time or times and bearing interest to be earned thereon in amounts sufficient to redeem and retire the
Bonds or any of them in accordance with their terms are set aside in a special account to effect such redemption or
retirement, and such money and the principal of and interest on such obligations are set aside irrevocably and pledged
for such purpose, then no further payments need be made into the Bond Fund for the payment of the principal of and
interest on the Bonds so provided for. Such Bonds will cease to be entitled to any lien, benefit or security of the Bond
Ordinance except the fight to receive the funds so set aside and pledged, and such Bonds will be deemed not to be
outstanding.
As currently defined in chapter 39.53 RCW, the term "Government Obligations" means (a) direct obligations of or
obligatious.the prineipai and interest on which are unconditionally guaranteed by the United States of America and bank
certificates of deposit secured by such obligations; (b)bonds, debentures, notes, participation certificates or other
obligations issued by the Banks for Cooperatives, the Federal Intermediate Credit Bank, the Federal Home Loan Bank
System, the Export-import Bank of the United States, federal land banks or the Federal National Mortgage Association;
(c) public housing bonds and project notes fully secured by contracts with the United States; and (d) obligations of
financial institutions insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation to the extent insured or guaranteed as
permitted under any other provision of State law.
USE OF PROCEEDS
Purpose
The proceeds from the sale of the Bonds will be used to refund certain maturities of the City’s outstanding 2004 Bonds
for debt service savings, and to pay costs of issuance of the Bonds. See "Refunding Plan" below.

(1)Reflects a partial refunding of the December 1, 2024 Term Bond, specifically, the mandatory sinking fund
payments due on December 1,2018 through 2024, inclusive.
A portion of the proceeds of the Bonds will be escrowed to the redemption date for the Refunded Bonds on
December 1, 2014, at which time the Refunded Bonds will be redeemed at a price of par plus accrued interest to the
date of redemption.
From a portion of the proceeds of the Bonds, the City will purchase certain direct non-callable United States
Government Obligations ("Acquired Obligations"). These Acquired Obligations will be deposited in the custody of
U.S. Bank, National Association, Seattle, Washington (the "Escrow Agent"). The maturing principal of the Acquired
Obligations, interest earned thereon, and necessary cash balance, if any, will provide payment of:
(a)interest and principal on the Refunded Bonds when due up to and including December 1, 2014; and
(b)on December 1, 2014, the redemption price (100%) of the Refunded Bonds.
The Acquired Obligations, interest earned thereon, and necessary cash balance, if any, will irrevocably be pledged to
and held in trust for the benefit of the owners of the Refunded Bonds by the Escrow Agent, pursuant to an escrow
deposit agreement to be executed by the City and the Escrow Agent.
Verification of Mathematical Calculations
Grant Thornton LLP will verify the accuracy of the mathematical computations concerning the adequacy of the
maturing principal amounts of and iaterest earned on the Government Obligations, to be placed together with ’other
escrowed money in the escrow account to pay when due, pursuant to the call for redemption, the principal of and
interest on the Refunded Bonds. The verification will also confirm the mathematical computations supporting the
conclusion of Bond Counsel that the Bonds are not "arbitrage bonds" as defined by Section 148 of the Internal Revenue
Code of ~986, as amended (the "Code").
SECURITY AND SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE BONDS
Pledge of Revenues of the Waterworks Utility
The Bonds are special fund obligations of the City, payable from and secured by Gross Revenue of the Waterworks
Utility subject only to the payment of Maintenance and Operation Expense ("Net Revenue") on a parity of lien with the
City’s Outstanding Parity Bonds and any Future Parity Bonds.
"Gross Revenue" is defined in the Bond Ordinance to mean all of the earnings and revenues received by the City from
the maintenance and operation of the Waterworks Utility and all earnings from the investment of money in the Reserve
Fund or any Parity Bond Fund, and connection and capital improvement charges collected for the purpose of defraying
the cost of capital facilities of the Waterworks Utility, except government grants, proceeds from the sale of Waterworks
Utility property (other than timber), City taxes collected by or through the Waterworks Utility, principal proceeds of
bonds and earnings or proceeds from any investments in a trust, defeasance or escrow fund created to defease or refund
Waterworks Utility obligations (until commingled with other earnings and revenues of the Waterworks Utility) or held
in a special account for the purpose of paying a rebate to the United States Government under the Code.
"Maintenance and Operation Expense" is defined in the Bond Ordinance to mean all reasonable expenses incurred by
the City in causing the Waterworks Utility to be operated and maintained in good repair, working order and condition,
including payments made to any other municipal corporation or private entity for water service and for sewage
treatment and disposal service or other utility service in the event the City combines such service in the Waterworks
Utility and enters into a contract for such service, and including pro-rata budget charges for the City’s administration
expenses where those represent a reasonable distribution and share of actual costs, but not including any depreciation or
taxes levied or imposed by the City or payments to the City in lieu of taxes, or capital additions or capital replacements
to the Waterworks Utility.
The Bonds are not general obligations of the City, and neither the full faith and credit nor the taxing power of
the City or of the State, nor any revenues of the City derived from sources other than the Waterworks Utility,
are pledged to the payment thereof.
Flow of Funds
Gross Revenue of the Waterworks Utility will be deposited into the Waterworks Utility Fund (the "Waterworks Utility
Fund"). Gross Revenue on deposit in the Waterworks Utility Fund (other than in any bond redemption or federal rebate
account) will be held separate and apart from all other funds and accounts of the City and will be used in the following
order of priority:
(1)To pay Maintenance and Operation Expense;
(2)To pay the interest on the Parity Bonds, including reimbursements to the issuer of a Credit Facility if
the Credit Facility secures the payment of interest on Parity Bonds and the ordinance authorizing such
Parity Bonds provides for such reimbursement;
(3)To pay the principal of the Parity Bonds, including reimbursements to the issuer of a Credit Facility if
the Credit Facility secures the payment of principal on Parity Bonds and the ordinance authorizing
such Parity Bonds provides for such reimbursement;
To make all payments required to be made into any sinking fund or bond redemption fund hereafter
created for the payment of Future Parity Bonds which are Term Bonds;
(5)To make all payments required to be made into the Reserve Fund, including any reimbursements
required for Qualified Insurance or Qualified Letter of Credit;
(6)To make all payments required to be made into any revenue bond redemption fund or warrant
redemption fund and debt service account or reserve account created to pay and secure the payment of
the principal of and interest on any revenue bonds or revenue warrants of the City having a lien upon
Gross Revenue junior and inferior to the lien thereon for the payment of the principal of and interest
on the Parity Bonds; and
(7)To retire by optional redemption or purchase any outstanding revenue bonds or revenue warrants of
the City, to make necessary additions, betterments, improvements and repairs to or extensions and
replacements of the Waterworks Utility, to make deposits into the Rate Stabilization Fund, or for any
other lawful City purpose.
Rate Covenant
The City has pledged in the Bond Ordinance that it will establish, maintain and collect rates and charges for all services
and facilities provided by the Waterworks Utility which will be fair and nondiscriminatory, and will adjust those rates
and charges from time to time so that:
(1)Gross Revenue will at all times be sufficient to (A) pay all Maintenance and Operation Expense on a
current basis, 03)pay when due all amounts that the City is obligated to pay into the Reserve Fund
and any Parity Bond Funds and (C) pay all taxes, assessments or other governmental charges lawfully
imposed upon the Waterworks Utility or other revenue therefrom or payments in lieu thereof and any
and all other amounts which the City may now or hereafter become obligated to pay from Gross
Revenue by law or contract; and
(2)Net Revenue in each calendar year will be at least equal to the Coverage Requirement.
Coverage Requirement prior to the New Covenant Date (defined in the Bond Ordinance to be at the time the 1998
Bonds, the 2002 Bonds, the 2003 Bonds and the 2004 Bonds are no longer outstanding, which is currently expected to
occur on December 1, 2014) is defined in the Bond Ordinance to mean in any calendar year 1.25 times the Maximum
Annual Debt Service. From and after the New Covenant Date, the term Coverage Requirement is defined in the Bond
Ordinance to mean in any calendar year 1.25 times the Annual Debt Service for such year.
Funds and Accounts
Bond Fund. The City has created the Bond Fund, which has been designated as a "Parity Bond Fund" and a subaecount
of the Waterworks Utility Fund, for the purpose of paying the principal of and interest on the Bonds. As long as any
Bonds remain outstanding, the City has irrevocably obligated and bound itself to set aside and pay from the Waterworks
Utility Fund into the Bond Fund those amounts necessary, together with such other funds as are on hand and available
in the Bond Fund, to pay the interest or principal and interest next coming due on outstanding Bonds. Such payments
from the Waterworks Utility Fund to the Bond Fund will be made in a fixed amount without regard to any fixed
proportion following the closing and delivery of the Bonds on or before each date on which an installment of interest or
principal and interest falls due on the Bonds equal to the installment of interest or principal and interest.
Reserve Fund. The Waterworks Revenue Bond Reserve Fund (the "Reserve Fund") has previously been created by the
City for purpose of securing the payment of the principal of and interest on all bonds to which Net Revenue is pledged.
The City covenants and agrees in the Bond Ordinance that on or prior to the date of issuance of the Bonds, the amount
on deposit in the Reserve Fund will be at least equal to the Reserve Requirement.
The "Reserve Requirement" is currently defined as Maximum Annual Debt Service which means, at the time of
calculation, the maximum amount of annual debt service that will mature or come due in the current calendar year or
any future calendar year on the outstanding Parity Bonds. After the New Covenant Date, the term "Reserve
Requirement" with respect to any issue of Parity Bonds will mean the lesser of (a) Maximum Annual Debt Service on
all Outstanding Parity Bonds and (b) 125% of average Annual Debt Service on all Outstanding Parity Bonds; provided,
that the amount required to be deposited with respect to any Future Parity Bonds in order to meet the Reserve
Requirement will not exceed 10% of the net proceeds of such Future Parity Bonds under the Code.
As of October 1, 2012, the City had $3,648,589 in Qualified Insurance in the form of a surety policy (the "Surety
Policy") from Financial Guaranty Insurance Company ("FGIC") delivered in connection with the issuance of the 2007
Bonds, 2008A Bonds, and 2008B Bonds. The Surety Policy originally issued by FGIC has been reinsured by National
Public Finance Guaranty Corp. and will terminate on the earlier of the scheduled final maturity date of the 2007 Bonds,
2008A Bonds, and 2008B Bonds (December 1, 2027) or the date on which no 2007 Bonds, 2008A Bonds, and 2008B
Bonds are deemed outstanding. The City intends to deposit $2,909,745.00 from available funds of the City into the
Reserve Fund at the time of issuance of the Bonds. Such amounts will be sufficient to satisfy the Reserve Requirement
on the date of issuance of the Bonds ($2,909,745.00).
Except for withdrawals therefrom as authorized herein, the Reserve Fund shall be maintained at the Reserve
Requirement at all times so long as any Parity Bonds are Outstanding. When the total amount in the Bond Fund shall
equal the total amount of principal and interest for all outstanding Bonds, no further payment need be made into the
Bond Fund. Notwithstanding the first sentence of this paragraph, the Reserve Requirement may be decreased for any
issue of Parity Bonds when and to the extent the City has redeemed or otherwise defeased any Outstanding Parity
Bonds.
If there shall be a deficiency in the Bond Fund to meet maturing installments of either principal or interest, as the ease
may be, on the Bonds, that deficiency shall be made up from the Reserve Fund by the withdrawal of cash therefrom for
that purpose and after all cash has been depleted, then by draws on the Qualified Insurance or Qualified Letter of Credit
for that purpose. Any deficiency created in the Reserve Fund by reason of any such withdrawal shall then be made up
from Net Revenue first available after making necessary provisions for the required payments into the Bond Fund. Any
money in the Reserve Fund in excess of the Reserve Requirement may be withdrawn and deposited in any Parity Bond
Fund and spent for the purpose of retiring Parity Bonds or may be deposited in any other fund and spent for any other
lawful Waterworks Utility purpose.
The City may provide for the purchase, redemption or defeasanee of Parity Bonds by the use of money on deposit in the
Bond Fund or the Reserve Fund as long as the money remaining in those funds is sufficient to satisfy the required
deposits in those funds for the remaining Parity Bonds.
All money in the Bond Fund or Reserve Fund may be kept in cash or on deposit in the official bank depository of the
City or in any national bank or may be invested in any legal investment for City funds. Interest on any of those
investments or on that bank account shall be deposited in the Reserve Fund until the total Reserve Requirement shall
have been accumulated therein, after which time the interest shall be deposited in any Parity Bond Fund.
Notwithstanding the provisions for the deposit or maintenance of earnings in the Bond Fund or the Reserve Fund, the
City also may transfer out of the Bond Fund or Reserve Fund any money required in order to prevent any Parity Bonds
from becoming "arbitrage bonds" under the Code.
Rate Stabilization Fund. The City has previously created a Waterworks Rate Stabilization Fund (the "Rate Stabilization
Fund"). The City may, at any time, deposit Gross Revenue into the Rate Stabilization Fund, excluding principal
proceeds of Parity Bonds or other borrowing. The City may withdraw any or all of the money from the Rate
Stabilization Fund for inclusion in Gross Revenue for any fiscal year of the City. Such deposits or withdrawals may be
made up to and including the date 90 days after the end of the fiscal year for which the deposit or withdrawal will be
included in Gross Revenue. No deposit of Gross Revenue will be made into the Rate Stabilization Fund to the extent
that such deposit would prevent the City from meeting the Coverage Requirement. The Rate Stabilization Fund is
currently unfunded.
Additional Covenants
So long as any Parity Bonds are outstanding, the City has covenanted and agreed as follows:
Maintenance and Repair. It will at all times maintain and keep the Waterworks Utility in good repair, working order
and condition and also will at all times operate such Utility and the business in connection therewith in an efficient
manner and at a reasonable cost.
Disposal of Waterworks Utility. It will not sell, l~ase, mortgage or in any manner encumber or otherwise dispose of
the Waterworks Utility in its entirety unless, simultaneously with such sale or other disposition, all Parity Bonds are
defeased pursuant to the provisions of the Bond Ordinance. See Appendix A for certain requirements relating to
disposal of all or a portion of the Waterworks Utility.
Books and Records. It will keep proper books, records and accounts with respect to the operations, income and
expenditures of the Waterworks Utility in accordance with proper accounting procedures and any applicable rules and
regulations prescribed by the State. It will prepare annual financial and operating statements within 270 days of the
close of each fiscal year showing in reasonable detail the financial condition of the Waterworks Utility as of the close of
the previous year, and the income and expenses for such year, including the amounts paid into the Bond Fund and
Reserve Fund and into any and all special funds or accounts created pursuant to the Bond Ordinance, the status of all
funds and accounts as of the end of such year, and the amounts expended for maintenance, renewals, replacements and
capital additions to the Waterworks Utility.
No Free Service. Except to aid the poor or infirm, to provide for resource conservation or to provide for the proper
handling of hazardous materials, it will not furnish or supply or permit the furnishing or supplying of any service or
facility in eormeetion with the operation of the Waterworks U~lity free of charge to any person, firm or corporation,
public or private, other than the City, so long as any Parity Bonds are outstanding. On at least an annual basis, it will
determine all accounts that are delinquent and will take all necessary action to enforce payment of such accounts against
those property owners whose accounts are delinquent.
Insurance. It at all times will carry fire and extended coverage and such other forms of insurance, including public
liability and property damage insurance, with responsible insurers and with policies payable to or on behalf of the City
and any additional insureds on such of the buildings, equipment, works, plants, facilities and properties of the
Waterworks Utility, and against such claims for damages, as are ordinarily carried by municipal or privately owned
utilities engaged in the operation of like systems, or will implement and maintain a self-insurance or an insurance pool
program with reserves adequate, in the reasonable judgment of the City, to protect the Waterworks Utility and the
Owners of the Parity Bonds against loss.
Maintenance and Operation Expense. It will pay all Maintenance and Operation Expense and the debt service
requirements for the outstanding Parity Bonds, and otherwise meet the obligations of the City as herein set forth.
Tax Covenants. It will undertake all actions required to maintain the tax-exempt status of interest on the Bonds under
Section 103 of the Code.
Future Parity Bonds
In the Bond Ordinance the City reserves the right to issue Future Parity Bonds which will constitute a lien and charge on the
Net Revenue of the Waterworks Utility on a parity with the Outstanding Parity Bonds and the Bonds, if the following
conditions are met and complied with at the time of issuance of the Future Parity Bonds:
(1)There is no deficiency in any Parity Bond Fund.
The ordinance providing for the issuance of such Future Parity Bonds provides for the payment of the
principal thereof and interest thereon out of a Parity Bond Fund.
(3)The ordinance providing for the issuance of such Future Parity Bonds shall provide for the deposit into the
Reserve Fund from the proceeds of those Future Parity Bonds of (1)an amount equal to the increase in
the Reserve Requirement attributable to those Parity Bonds or (2) Qualified Letter of Credit or Qualified
Insurance or an amount plus Qualified Letter of Credit or Qualified Insurance equal to the increase in the
Reserve Requirement attributable to those Future Parity Bonds. At the discretion of the City, the City
may provide for deposit into the Reserve Fund of other legally available money from Net Revenue or
Qualified Letter of Credit or Qualified Insurance on or prior to the date of issuance of such Future Parity
Bonds.
(4)The ordinance authorizing the issuance of such Future Parity Bonds shall provide for the payment of
mandatory redemption or sinking fund requirements into the applicable Parity Bond Fund for any Term
Bonds to be issued and for regular payments to be made for the payment of the principal of such Term
Bonds on or before their maturity, or, as an alternative, the mandatory redemption of those Term Bonds
prior to their maturity date from money in the applicable Parity Bond Fund.
(5)There will be on file with the City either:
(a)a certificate of the Finance Director demonstrating that Net Revenue for the Base Period,
without regard to deposits into or withdrawals from the Rate Stabilization Fund, is equal to at
least the Parity Requirement; or
(b)prior.to the New Covenant Date, a certificate of a Professional Utility Consultant that in such
Consultant’s opinion, Net Revenue for any 12 consecutive calendar months, without regard
to deposits into or withdrawals from the Rate Stabilization Fund, shall be equal to at least the
Parity Requirement. After the New Covenant Date, this section shall be amended to read as
follows: a certificate of a Professional Utility Consultant that in such Consultant’s opinion
Net Revenue for the Base Period, as adjusted, without regard to deposits into or withdrawals
from the Rate Stabilization Fund, shall be equal to at least the Parity Requirement. The
Professional Utility Consultant, in estimating Net Revenue available for debt services, may
adjust Net Revenue to reflect:
Any changes in rates in effect and being charged or expressly committed
by ordinance to be made in the future;
Income derived from customers of the Waterworks Utility who have
become customers during the 12 consecutive month period or thereafter
adjusted to reflect one year’s Net Revenue from those customers;
(c)Income from any customers to be connected to the Waterworks Utility who
have paid the required connection charges;
(D)The Professional Utility Consultant’s estimate of the Net Revenue to be
derived from customers anticipated to connect for whom building permits
have been issued;
Income received or to be received which is derived from any person, firm
corporation or municipal corporation under any executed contract for
water, sewage disposal or other utility service, which revenue was not
included in the historical Net Revenue;
The Professional Utility Consultant’s estimate of the Net Revenue to be
derived from customers with existing homes or buildings which will be
required to connect to any additions to and improvements and extensions
of the Waterworks Utility constructed and to be paid for out of the
proceeds of the sale of the additional Future Parity Bonds or other
additions to and improvements and extensions of the Waterworks Utility
when such additions, improvements and extensions are not completed; and
Any increases or decrease in Net Revenue as a result of any actual or
reasonably anticipated changes in Maintenance and Operation Expense
subsequent to the 12-month period.
Refunding Obligations. If Future Parity Bonds proposed to be so issued are for the sole purpose of refunding outstanding
bonds payable from any Parity Bond Fund, such certification of coverage will not be required if the amount required for the
payment of the principal and interest in each year for the refunding bonds is not increased more than $5,000 over the amount
for that same year required for the bonds or the portion of that bond issue to be refunded thereby and if the maturities of such
refunding bonds are not extended b~yond the maturities of the bonds to be refunded thereby.
Furthermore, nothing contained in the Bond Ordinance prevents the City from issuing Future Parity Bonds to refund
maturing Parity Bonds, money for the payment of which is not otherwise available.
Junior Lien Obligations
The City has reserved the right to issue revenue bonds or other obligations which would be a charge upon Gross
Revenue subordinate to that of any Outstanding Parity Bonds. As of October 1, 2012, the City had approximately
$5,538,927 in outstanding subordinate lien debt. See "DEBT INFORMATION--Subordinate Lien Obligations."
No Acceleration
A Bondowner cannot require acceleration of debt service on the Bonds upon the occurrence of an event of default.
See "BOND OWNERS’ RISKS---No Acceleration."

Debt Payment Record
The City has promptly met all debt service payments on outstanding obligations. No refunding bonds have been issued
to avoid an impending default.
Future Financing
Other than the Bonds, the City has no authorized but unissued bonds secured by Gross Revenues outstanding. The City
does not expect to issue bonds secured by Gross Revenues in the next 12 months.
THE WATERWORKS UTILITY
The Waterworks Utility of the City is comprised of three divisions: the Water Utility, the Wastewater Utility and the
Storm Drainage Utility. The City maintains separate fund accounting for the three divisions to facilitate financial
management, but has combined the divisions for financing purposes into the Waterworks Utility.
The Water Utility
Description. The Water Utility provides water service for fire protection and for domestic uses to an area of 17.11
square miles within the City limits. As of October 1, 2012, the Water Utility served approximately 17,728 customer
accounts, and a population of 55,296. The City also supplies water on a wholesale basis to a portion of the Skyway
Water and Sewer District through a single metered connection. Water service within certain areas of the City is also
provided by the Soos Creek Water and Sewer District, the Coal Creek Utility District, the Cedar River Water and Sewer
District, and King County Water District #90.
The City’s water system consists of nine water supply sources, ten reservoirs with 22 million gallons of storage, 12
pump stations, two water treatment facilities, 305 miles of water mains, 3,644 fire hydrants and 17,370 water meters.
Water treatment consists of chlorination, fluoridation and corrosion control for all active production wells, along with
the removal of manganese, hydrogen sulfide, and ammonia from the raw water from the Maplewood wells.
The City’s own water supply sources include eight active wells and one emergency well, drawing water from the Cedar
Valley aquifer; three wells from the Maplewood aquifer; and one artesian spring, Springbrook Springs. The wells
provide 83 percent of the City’s water production. In addition, the City maintains ten metered water supply interties
with Seattle Public Utilities, one emergency intertie with the City of Kent, one emergency intertie with the City of
Tukwila and one emergency intertie with the Skyway Water and Sewer District. Together, active, standby and
emergeney wells provide 19,450 gallons per minute ("GPM") or 28 million gallons per day ("MGD"). Interties with
Seattle Public Utilities and emergency interties with neighboring cities and water districts can provide 13,200 GPM or
19.1 MGD.
In 2011, the maximum demand for water was 12.5 MGD and the average day demand was 6.8 MGD. Based on growth
forecasts, the City believes that it has sufficient onqine supply capacity to meet demands through at least 2018, or to
2034 with the practice of water conservation efforts. In 2011, the City entered into a fifty year supply agreement with
the City of Seattle that will allow the City access to the City of Seattle water supply sufficient to accommodate all
projected growth through 2061.

Data in table reflects billings for the Water Utility. Actual receipts may vary. See ’Tinaneial Statements"
below. Totals may not foot due to rounding.
The City modified its rate structure in 2008 in effort to more accurately reflect cost of services and encourage
conservation. Irrigation use was reclassified and consumption became subject to the highest rate tier. Single
family rates changed from a two-tiered system to a three-tiered system, with higher incremental rates for the
third-tier and a lower base tier rate. As a result of this structural change, the average single family billing
decreased by approximately 19% and the irrigation billing increased.
Includes hydrants and wholesale water provided to the Skyway Water and Sewer District.

WatEr Utility Rates and Charges. Water rates for metered services inside the City are established in order to charge
service accounts for the amount of water used plus a monthly service charge determined by the size of the waterline
serving the premises.
The City updates its rate model every other year, in conjunction with its biennial budget process, to determine rate
adjustments necessary to maintain the Waterworks Utility. The City adopted a set of financial policies for its
Waterworks Utility in 2010 to reduce the reliance of debt financing of future system replacements. As a result, there
was a water rate increase of 18 percent in 2011 and 16 percent in 2012. The City is proposing to raise rates an
additional five percent in 2013 and five percent in 2014. The proposed rate increases are currently being considered by
the City Council and if approved, will take effect on January 1 in the respective years. The following table shows the
historical rate increases for the Water Utility.

The Wastewater Utility
Description. The Wastewater Utility system collects wastewater from residential and commercial customers and
delivers it to King County Metro ("Metro") for treatment. The agreement between Metro and the City will terminate on
July 1, 2056 with optional extensions. The existing system consists of 215 miles of wastewater pipelines, 20 lift
stations and an additional 15 lift stations which are privately owned and maintained. Wastewater is discharged into
facilities within the City, from which it is conveyed to and treated by the Metro’s South Treatment Plant.
Approximately 75 percent of the City is served by the Wastewater Utility system. Another 15 percent is served by other
sewer districts with the remaining area within the City is served by septic tanks or is undeveloped. The City also serves
customers outside of the City limits, which includes 106 residential accounts.
Wastewater Utility Customers. As of January 1, 2012, the City provided wastewater service to approximately 17,132
customer accounts, 86 percent of which were residential. Customer data and usage by class for the last five years is
presented below.

Wastewater Utility Rates and Charges. As discussed under "The Water Utility" above, the City updates its rote model
each year to determine rate adjustments to maintain the Waterworks Utility. The City adopted a set of financial policies
for its utility system in 2010 to reduce the reliance of debt financing of future system replacements. As a result, rates
increased 42 percent in 2011 and an additional five percent in 2012. The City is proposing to raise rates an additional
~ive percent in 2013 and five percent in 2014. The proposed rate increases are currently being considered by the City
Council and, if approved, Gill take effect on January 1 of the respective years. The following table shows the historical
rate increases for the Wastewater Utility.

Storm Drainage Utility
Description. The Storm Drainage Utility system covers a service area within the existing City corporate boundaries of
approximately 23.8 square miles. The area includes rivers, streams, ditches, lakes, wetlands and manmade facilities.
The Storm Drainage Utility owns, maintains and operates all storm and surface water facilities located within public
fight-of-ways, tracts, and easements dedicated for storm and surface water management purposes. The Storm Drainage
Utility system consists of 276 miles of storm system pipe, includes 10,991 catch basins, 4,070 access manholes, 100
storm water retention/detention facilities and 24.7 miles of ditch systems and channels.
Potential Annexation. On November 6, 2012, voters in the West Hill community were asked to consider a proposition
of whether the West Hill community should be annexed into the City or remain part of unincorporated King County.
The West Hill community is a 1,857-acre or 2.9 square mile area bordering Lake Washington to the northeast, the City
of Seattle to the north, the City of Tukwila to the south, and the City to the southeast. It has an estimated population of
18
15,853 in seven neighborhoods, including Bryn Mawr, Lakeddge, Skyway, Campbell Hill, Panorama, Skycmst, and
Hill Top.. As of the date of this Official Statement, preliminary election results showed annexation falling by
approximately nine percent. Election results will be certified on November 27, 2012.
If the annexation is approved, the area would receive general governmental services from the City, such as police, fire,
permits, and street maintenance services upon a to be determined effective date. The City would also be responsible for
providing storm drainage services to the area. Water and sewer services in the area are currently provided by Seattle
Public Utilities and the Skyway Water and Sewer District and would likely continue after annexation.
Storm Drainage Utility Customers. As of January 1, 2012, the City provided storm drainage service to approximately
22,827 customers of which approximately 92 percent were single family residential. Customer data by class for the last
five years is presented below, as well as current revenues of the Storm Drainage Utility.

In November 2007, voters in the Benson Hill area approved an annexation of unincorporated land bordering
the City which increased the geographic size of the City by approximately one-third. After the annexation, the
City began providing storm drainage services to the annexed area, but water and sewer services continued to be
provided by the Soos Creek Water and Sewer District.

Waterworks Utility Capital Improvement Plan
The City regularly identifies additional capital needs of the Waterworks Utility based on factors that may include
expected growth and financial priority. Rapid residential and commercial growth has prompted the City to plan for
expansion of its Waterworks Utility capacity. The plan also accounts for projects required to meet current regulatory
requirements.
The City updates its six-year Capital Improvement Plan ("CIP") every two years. The latest CIP outlines proposed
enhancement and development for the Waterworks Utility for the years 2012-2017. Per City policy, all capital
improvements to the existing system will be fully funded through utility rates and charges and will not be financed with
debt. Additions to the Waterworks Utility may be funded with proceeds of Future Parity Bonds or subordinate lien
obligations.

Utility Billing and Delinquent Accounts
The Utility Billing division under the direction of the Administrative Services Department provides customer service,
billing and revenue collections for the Waterworks Utility. Utility bills are generated monthly and due 25 days later. If
the charges billed are not paid within the 20 day period from the due date, such charges become delinquent. If an
account is delinquent, the City will assess a penalty to the account and enforce collections. The City’s ability to collect
on delinquent accounts is controlled by State law and the Renton Municipal Code. Remedies include, but are not
limited to, providing notice, charging fees and interest on unpaid charges for service, terminating water service, and
placing a lien for unpaid charges against premises to which such service has been furnished or is available. Such lien is
superior to all other liens or encumbrances, except those for general taxes and special assessments, and may be
foreclosed by the City in the manner provided by law, in addition to all other available remedies.
Permitting and Regulatory
The City’s Waterworks Utility is in compliance with known regulations and applicable permits. The City’s existing
National Pollution Discharge Elimination System (’¢N-PDES") Permit was issued on January 17, 2007, by the
Washington State Department of Ecology under the provisions of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s Clean
Water Act. The City’s NPDES permit regulates stormwater discharges from municipally owned or operated stormwater
systems in the City. Federal and state water quality laws require a permit for the discharge of stormwater and requires
public entities to control discharge of pollutants to protect surface water. The City meets this requirement through
inspections and enforcement to prevent and control stormwater impacts, public education regarding good stormwater
management practices, operation and maintenanee of the municipal stormwater system, and stormwater monitoring and
reporting, among others.
The City’s Water Utility is subject to an annual operating permit issued by the Washington State Department of Health.
The City’s permit is current and holds a "green" status (fully compliant). To maintain "green" status the City must
remain fully compliant with all Safe Drirddng Water Act requirements. The City currently does not have any concerns
regarding the City’s ability to renew its annual permit or remain in "green" status.
Endangered Species Act
In planning future projects, the City evaluates the construction and operation of the facilities to determine if there will
bc any impact on endangered species through the use of site evaluations, special environmental studies, and preparation
of State Environmental Policy Act ("SEPA") checklists or environmental impact statements, as appropriate.
Alternatives are developed to minimize or avoid impacts on endangered species. Where federal permits or funding are
involved, the City also complies with the Endangered Species Act’s "consultation" requirement, which serves to
evaluate and address any potential effect on endangered species. Best management practices are employed during
routine operation and maintenance activities to minimize impacts on the environment.

Pension Funding
Substantially all of these employees are enrolled in the State of Washington Public Employees Retirement System
("PERS"), the Law Enforcement Officers and Fire Fighters Retirement System ("LEOFF") and the Public Safety
Employees’ Retirement System ("PSERS"). Contributions by both employees and employers are based on gross wages.
PERS and LEOFF participants who joined the system by September 30, 1977 are Plan 1 members. Those PERS
participants who joined on or atter October 1, 1977 are Plan 2 members, unless they choose the option to join Plan.3.
PERS Plan 3 is a hybrid of a deferred contribution and defined benefit plan effective September 1, 2002. PSERS was
created by the 2004 legislature and became effective July 1, 2006. The City contributed $1,802,877 to PERS,
$1,334,543 to LEOFF and $21,518 to PSERS in 2011 for all of the City’s employees that are covered under PERS,
LEOFF, and PSERS.
The following tables outline the contribution rates of employees and employers under PERS, LEOFF and PSERS.

According to the Office of the State Actuary, as of June 30, 2008, PERS Plans 2 and 3 had no unfunded actuarial
accrued liability. However, during the years 2001 through 2009 the rates adopted by the State Legislature were lower
than those that would have been required to produce actuarially required contributions to PERS Plan 1, a closed plan
with a large proportion of the retirees. According to a report issued by the Office of the State Actuary in September
2012, and subject to the assumptions therein, the total unfunded actuarial accrued liability of PERS Plan 1 is $3.684
billion (71% funded on an actuarial basis) as of June 30, 2011. In 2005 and 2006, the State Legislature enacted and
authorized the State Pension Funding Council to adopt changes in contribution rates to PERS intended to amortize the
PERS Plan 1 unfunded actuarial accrued liability by 2024. The contribution rates effective July 1, 2011 and
26
September 1, 2011, include a component of 2.16% and 2.34%, respectively, dedicated to amortizing the local
government share of the PEPS Plan 1 unfunded actuarial accrued liability, and a component of 0.16% for administrative
expenses. These .rates are subject to change by future legislation enacted by the State Legislature to address future
changes in actuarial and economic assumptions and investment performance.
While the City’s contributions in 2011 represent its full current liability under the systems, any unfunded pension
benefit obligations could be reflected in future years as higher contribution rates. It is expected that the contribution
rates for employees and employers in the PEPS 2 and 3 will increase.
Information regarding all of these plans is presented in Washington State’s Department of Retirement Systems’ annual
financial report. A copy of this report may be obtained at:

Fireman’s Pension
The Firefighter’s Pension Plan is a closed, single-employer, def’med benefit pension plan established in accordance with
chapter 41.18 RCW and the Renton Municipal Code. This plan provides retirement and disability benefits, annual cost-
of-living adjustments, and death benefits to plan members and beneficiaries. This system was established for
firefighters employed prior to March 1, 1970, when the LEOFF retirement system was established. The retirement
benefits vest after 20 years of service. Members may retire after 25 years of service regardless of age, and after age 50
with 20 or more yearn for service. At December 31,2011, there were 34 members in this system.
Under Washington State law, the Firefighter’s Pension Plan is provided an allocation of all moneys received by the
State from taxes on fire insurance premiums; interest earnings; member contributions made prior to the inception of
LEOFF; and City contributions required to meet projected future pension obligations. An actuarial valuation is
completed every two years, most recently as of January 1, 2011. As of December 31, 2011, the plan’s net pension
obligation was overftmded by $1,934,381 and is recorded as a non-current asset on the City’s Government-wide
Statement of net Assets.
Information regarding all of the City pension plans is presented in the City’s annual financial report. See Appendix C.
Other Post-Employment Benefits
In accordance with chapter 41.26 RCW, the City provides lifetime medical care for members of LEOFF retirement
system hired prior to October 1, 1977. The plan is a closed, single-employer defined benefit healthcare plan
administered by the City. As of December 31, 2011, there were 96 retirees and three active employees. The City’s
annual other postemployment benefit ("OPEB") cost is calculated based on the annual required contribution ("ARC"),
an amount actuarially determined in accordance with the parameters of GASB Statement 45.
The ARC represents a level of funding that, if paid on an ongoing basis, is projected to cover the normal cost each year
and to amortize any unfunded actuarial liabilities over a period not to exceed thirty years. The following table shows
the components of the City’s annual OPEB cost for the year, the amount actually contributed to the plan, and changes in
the City’s net OPEB obligation.

As of December 31, 2011 the City had $5.3 million in net assets in a self-insurance fund set aside to fund the net OPEB
obligation. Although this money is not held in trust, the fund has been created to accumulate resources to fulfill the
City’s OPEB obligations.
Authorized Investments
General. Chapter 35.39 RCW limits the investment by a city of its inactive funds or other funds in excess of current
needs to the following authorized investments: United States bonds; United States certificates of indebtedness; bonds or
warrants of the State and any local government in the State; its own bonds or warrants of a local improvement district
which are within the protection of the local improvement guaranty fund law; and any other investment authorized by
law for any other taxing district or the State Treasurer. Under chapter 43.84 RCW, the State Treasurer may invest in
non-negotiable certificates of deposit in designated qualified public depositories; in obligations of the U.S. government,
its agencies and wholly owned corporations; in bankers’ acceptances; in commercial paper; in the obligations of the
federal home loan bank, federal national mortgage association and other government corporations subject to statutory
provisions and may enter into repurchase agreements. Utility revenue bonds and warrants of any city and bonds or
warrants of a local improvement district are also eligible investments (RCW 35.39.030).
Money available for investment may be invested on an individual fund basis or may, unless otherwise restricted by law,
be commingled within one common investment portfolio. All income derived from such investment may be either
apportioned to and used by the various participating funds or for the benefit of the general government in accordance
28
with city ordinances or resolutions. Funds derived from the sale of bonds or other instruments of indebtedness will be
invested or used in such manner as the authorizing ordinances, resolutions or bond covenants may lawfully prescribe.
Local Government Investment Pool. The State Treasurer’s Office administers the Washington State Local Government
Investment Pool (the "LGIP"), which invests money on behalf of more than 460 cities, counties and special taxing
districts. In its management of LGIP, the State Treasurer is required to adhere, at all times, to the principles appropriate
for the prudent investment of public funds. These principles are, in order of priority, (i) the safety of principal; (ii) the
assurance of sufficient liquidity to meet cash flow demands; and (iii) the attainment of the highest possible yield within
the constraints of the first two goals. Historically, the LGIP has had sufficient liquidity to meet all cash flow demands.
The LGIP, authorized by chapter 43.250 RCW, is a voluntary pool which provides its participants the opportunity to
benefit from the economies of scale inherent in pooling. It is also intended to offer participants increased safety of
principal and the ability to achieve a higher investment yield than would otherwise be available to them. The pool is
restricted to investments with maturities of one year or less, and the average life typically is less than 90 days.
Investments permitted under the pool’s guidelines include U.S. government and agency securities, bankers’
acceptances, high quality commercial paper, repurchase and reverse repurchase agreements, motor vehicle fund
warrants, and certificates of deposit issued by qualified Washington State depositories.
As of October 1, 2012, the City’s investments at cost totaled $40,589,122 of which 25 percent was invested in the
LGIP, 63 percent was invested in certificates of deposit, and 12 percent was invested in US Federal Agency Securities.
Authorized lnvestments for Bond Proceeds. In addition to the eligible investments discussed above, bond proceeds may
also be invested in mutual funds with portfolios consisting of U.S. government and guaranteed agency securities with
average maturities of less than four years; municipal securities rated in one of the four highest categories; and money
market funds consisting of the same, so long as municipal securities held in the fund(s) are in one of the two highest
rating categories of a nationally recognized rating agency. Bond proceeds may also be invested in shares of money
market funds with portfolios of securities otherwise authorized by law for investment by local governments.
Budgetary Policies
The City budgets it funds in accordance with chapter 35A.33 RCW. Biennial appropriated budgets are adopted for the
general, special revenue, debt service, and capital projects funds on the cash basis of accounting and include fund
balances. Although not statutorily required, all proprietary funds are budgeted at the fund level as part of the biennial
budget process. The City provides a reconciliation of the differences between the budgetary basis and GAAP each year
in its Comprehensive Annual Financial Report.
The City Council adopts a biennial budget by ordinance establishing appropriations for City funds, and during the
biennium they may authorize supplemental appropriations. Administrative and legal budgetary control is established at
the fund level, i.e., expenditures for a fund may not exceed the total appropriation amount. The Mayor or Chief
Administrative Officer may authorize transfers of appropriations within a fund however interfund transfers must be
approved by ordinance of the Council.
Risk Management
The City is a member of the Washington Cities Insurance Authority ("WCIA"). Utilizing chapter 48.62 RCW (self-
insurance regulation) and chapter 39.34 RCW (the Interloeal Cooperation Act), nine cities originally formed WCIA on
January 1, 1981. WCIA was created for the purpose of providing a pooling mechanism for jointly purchasing
insurance, jointly self-insuring, and/or jointly contracting for risk management services. WCIA has a total of 150
members.
New members initially contract for a three-year term, and thereafter automatically renew on an annual basis. A one-
year withdrawal notice is required before membership can be terminated. Termination does not relieve a former
member from its unresolved loss history incurred during membership.
Liability coverage is written on an occurrence basis, without deductibles. Coverage includes general, automobile,
police, public officials’ errors or omissions, stop gap, and employee benefits liability. Limits are $4 million per
occurrence self-insured layer, and $16 million per occurrence in the re-insured excess layer. The excess layer is insured
29
by the purchase of reinsurance and insurance. Total limits are $20 million per occurrence subject to aggregate sublimits
in the excess layers. The WCIA Board of Directors determines the limits and terms of coverage annually.
Insurance coverage for property, automobile physical damage, fidelity, inland marine, and boiler and machinery are
purchased on a group basis. Various deductibles apply by type of coverage. Property insurance and auto physical
damage are self-funded from the members’ deductible to $500,000, for all perils other than flood and earthquake, and
insured above that amount by the purchase of reinsurance. In-house services include risk management consultation,
loss control field services, claims and litigation administration, and loss analyses. WCIA contracts for the claims
investigation consultants for personnel issues and land use problems, insurance brokerage, and lobbyist services.
WCIA is fully funded by its members, who make annual assessments on a prospectively rated basis, as determined by
an outside, independent actuary. The assessment covers loss, loss adjustment, and administrative expenses. As outlined
in the Interlocal Cooperation Act, WCIA retains the right to additionally assess the membership for any funding
shortfall.
An investment committee, using investment brokers, produces additional revenue by investment of WCIA’s assets in
financial instruments which comply with all State guidelines. These revenues directly offset portions of the
membership’s annual assessment.
A Board of Directors governs WCIA, which is comprised of one designated representative from each member. The
Board elects an Executive Committee and appoints a Treasurer to provide general policy direction for the organization.
The WCIA Executive Director reports to the Executive Committee and is responsible for conducting the day to day
operations of WCIA.
Auditing of City Finances
Accounting systems and budgetary controls are prescribed by the Office of the State Auditor in accordance with
RCW 43.09.200 and RCW 43.09.230. State statutes require audits for cities the size of the City to be conducted by the
Office of the State Auditor. The City complies with the systems and controls prescribed by the Office of the State
Auditor and establishes procedures and records which reasonably assure safeguarding of assets and the reliability of
financial reporting.
The State Auditor is required to examine the affairs of cities at least once every two years, however the City requests
annual audits. The examination must include, among other things, the financial condition and resources of the City,
whether the laws and constitution of the State are being complied with, and the methods and accuracy of the accounts
and reports of the City. Reports of the auditor’s examinations are required to be filed in the office of the State Auditor
and in the finance department of the City. The audited financial statements for the City for the year ended
December 31, 2011 is attached as Appendix C, and is incorporated by reference to this Official Statement.
BOND OWNERS’ RISKS
Prospective purchasers should consult their investment advisors before making any decision as to the purchase of the
Bonds. The following discussion, while not setting forth all of the factors that should be considered, contains some of
the factors which should be considered, in addition to the other information in this Official Statement, prior to
purchasing the Bonds. This section is not meant to be comprehensive or definitive, and there may be other risk factors
which will become material in the future. The order in which this information is presented does not necessarily reflect
the relative importance of various risks.
Special Limited Revenue Obligations of the City
The Bonds are special revenue obligations of the City, payable solely from the Gross Revenue of the City’s Waterworks
Utility after payment of Cost of Maintenance and Operation. The lien of the Bonds on Net Revenues is equal to the lien
securing the Outstanding Parity Bonds and any Future Parity Bonds that may be issued from time to time, and superior
to all other charges of any kind.
Neither the full faith and credit nor the taxing power of the City is pledged to the payment of the Bonds. The Bonds are
not obligations of the State or any political subdivision thereof other than the City. See "SECURITY AND SOURCES
OF PAYMENT FOR THE BONDS."
30
Operating Results
A number of factors could impact the results of operations of the Waterworks Utility in the future, including a decrease
in the number of customers of the Waterworks Utility, changes in regional and local economic conditions, regulatory
and permit requirements, changes in population, increase in Costs of Maintenance and Operations, and changes in
general market conditions. There can be no assurance that the Waterworks Utility will be able to maintain the current
number of existing users if there are changes in the resident and/or commercial population of the service area.
Enforceability of Remedies
Any remedies available to the owners of the Bonds upon the occurrence of an event of default under the Bond
Ordinance are in many respects dependent upon judicial actions, which are in turn often subject to discretion and delay
and could be both expensive and time-consuming to obtain. If the City fails to comply with its covenants under the
Bond Ordinance or to pay principal of or interest on the Bonds, there can be no assurance that available remedies will
be adequate to fully protect the interests of the owners of the Bonds.
In addition to the limitations on remedies contained in the Bond Ordinance, the rights and obligations under the Bonds
and the Bond Ordinance may be limited by and are subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, fraudulent
conveyance, moratorium, and other laws relating to or affecting creditors’ fights, to the application of equitable
principles, and to the exercise ofjudieiai discretion in appropriate cases. The opinion to be delivered by Paeifiea Law
Group LLP, as Bond Counsel, concurrently with the issuance of the Bonds, will be subject to limitations regarding
bankruptcy, insolvency and other laws relating to or affecting creditors’ rights. The various other legal opinions to be
delivered concurrently with the issuance of the Bonds will be similarly qualified. A copy of the form of legal opinion of
Bond Counsel is set forth in Appendix B.
No Acceleration
A Bondowner cannot require acceleration of debt service on the Bonds upon the occurrence of an event of default. The
City thus would be liable only for principal and interest payments as they became due, and the Bondowners would be
required to seek a separate judgment for each payment, if any, not made. Any such action for monetary damages would
be subject to any limitations on legal claims and remedies against public bodies under State law. Amounts recovered
would be applied to unpaid installments of interest prior to being applied to unpaid principal and premium, if any, which
had become due.
Loss of Exemption of Interest from Federal Income Taxes
The exemption of interest on the Bonds from federal income taxes is dependent upon continuing compliance by the City
with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). The City has covenanted in the
Bond Ordinance to comply with the Code. See "TAX MATTERS." If the interest on the Bonds should be declared
taxable by the Internal Revenue Service (the "IRS") or legislation or regulations are adopted or there is a final
determination by a judicial or administrative auth6rity requiting interest on the Bonds to be included in the reeipient’s
gross income for federal income tax purposes, the interest rate will remain unchanged. Neither the Bonds nor the Bond
Ordinance provides for an adjustment of the interest rate or for mandatory redemption of the Bonds in the event that the
interest on the Bonds is declared taxable. If interest on the Bonds should become subject to federal income taxation, the
market value of the Bonds may be adversely affected.
Loss of Premium from Early Redemption
Any person who purchases a Bond at a price in excess of its principal amount should consider the fact that certain
maturities of the Bonds are subject to early redemption at a redemption price equal to the pfincipai amount of such
Bonds plus accrued interest under certain circumstances.
Secondary Market and Prices
It has been the practice of the Underwriter to maintain a secondary market in municipal securities that it sells. The
Underwriter presently intends to engage in secondary market trading of the Bonds, subject to applicable securities laws.
However, the Underwriter is not obligated to engage in secondary trading or to repurchase any of the Bonds. No
assurance can be given that a secondary market for the Bonds will be available and no assurance can be given that the
initial offering prices for the Bonds will continue for any period of time.
31
Ratings
There is no assurance that credit ratings assigned to the Bonds at the time of issuance will not be lowered or withdrawn,
the effect of which could adversely affect the market price and the market for the Bonds. See "RATING" herein.
Bankruptcy
Under current Washington law, local governments, such as the City, may be able to file for bankruptcy under Chapter 9
of the United States Bankruptcy Code (the "Bankruptcy Code"). A creditor, however, cannot bring an involuntarily
bankruptcy proceeding against a municipality, including the City. The federal bankruptcy courts have broad
discretionary powers under the Bankruptcy Code. Taxing districts in the State are expressly authorized to carry out a
plan of readjustment if approved by the appropriate court. If the City were to become a debtor in a federal bankruptcy
case, owners of the Bonds may not be able to exercise any of their remedies under the Bond Ordinance during the
course of a proceeding. Legal proceedings to resolve issues could be time-consuming and expensive, and substantial
delays and/or reductions in payments could result.
Bond Audits
The IlLS has established a general audit program to determine whether issuers of tax-exempt obligations, such as the
Bonds, are in compliance with requirements of the Code that must be satisfied in order for the interest on those
obligations to be, and continue to be, excluded from gross income for federal income tax purposes. The City cannot
predict whether the IRS will commence an audit of the Bonds. Depending on all the facts and circumstances and the
type of audit involved, it is possible that commencement of an audit of the Bonds could adversely affect the market
value and marketability of the Bonds until the audit is concluded, regardless of its ultimate outcome.
Under the State Constitution, the voters of the State have the ability to initiate legislation and require the Legislature to
refer legislation to the voters through the powers of initiative and referendum, respectively. The initiative power in
Washington may not be used to amend the State Constitution. Initiatives and referenda are submitted to the voters upon
receipt of a petition signed by at least eight percent (initiative) and four percent (referenda) of the number of voters
registered and voting for the office of Governor at the preceding regular gubernatorial election. Any law approved in
this manner by a majority of the voters may not be amended or repealed by the Legislature within a period of two years
following enactment, except by a vote of two-thirds of all the members elected to each house of the Legislature. After
two years, the law is subject to amendment or repeal by the Legislature in the same manner as other laws.
Under the Renton Municipal Code, Renton ~oters may initiate Municipal Code amendments and local legislation,
including modifications to existing legislation and through referendum may prevent legislation passed by the City
Council from becoming law.
In recent years there has been an increase in the number of initiatives and referenda filed in Washington, including state
initiatives targeting property taxes imposed by local jurisdictions. The City cannot predict whether this trend will
continue, whether any filed initiatives will receive the requisite signatures to be certified to the ballot, and whether such
initiatives will be approved by the voters and, if challenged, upheld by the courts.
FINANCIAL ADVISOR
The City has retained Piper Jaffray & Co, Seattle, Washington, as financial advisor (the "Financial Advisor"). The
Financial Advisor is not obligated to undertake, and has not undertaken, either to make an independent verification of or
to assume responsibility for, the accuracy, completeness, or fairness of the information contained in this Official
Statement. While under contract to the City, the Financial Advisor may not participate in the underwriting of any City
debt.
In the opinion of Bond Counsel, interest on the Bonds is excludable from gross income for federal income tax purposes
and is not an item of tax preference for purposes of the federal alternative minimum tax imposed on individuals and
corporations; however, interest on the Bonds is taken into account in determining adjusted current earnings for the
purpose of computing the alternative minimum tax imposed on certain corporations.
32
Federal income tax law contains a number of requirements ~hat apply to the Bonds, including investment restrictions,
periodic payments of arbitrage profits to the United States, requirements regarding the use of proceeds of the Bonds and
the facilities refinanced with proceeds of the Bonds and certain other matters. The City has covenanted to comply with
all applicable requirements.
Bond Counsel’s opinion is subject to the condition that the City comply with the above-referenced covenants and, in
addition, will rely on representations by the City and its advisors with respect to matters solely within the knowledge of
the City and its advisors, respectively, which Bond Counsel has not independently verified. If the City falls to comply
with such covenants or if the foregoing representations are determined to be inaccurate or incomplete, interest on the
Bonds could be included in gross income for federal income tax purposes retroactively to the date of issuance of the
Bonds, regardless of the date on which the event causing taxability occurs. In rendering its opinion, Bond Counsel has
relied on the report of Grant Thornton LLP with respect to the accuracy of certain mathematical calculations.
Except as expressly stated above, Bond Counsel expresses no opinion regarding any other federal or state income tax
consequences of acquiring, carrying, owning or disposing of the Bonds. Owners of the Bonds should consult their tax
advisors regarding the applicability of any collateral tax consequences of owning the Bonds, which may include original
issue discount, original issue premium, purchase at a market discount or at a premium, taxation upon sale, redemption
or other disposition, and various withholding requirements.
Prospective purchasers of the Bonds should be aware that ownership of the Bonds may result in collateral federal
income tax consequences to certain taxpayers, including, without limitation, financial institutions, property and casualty
insurance companies, individual recipients of Social Security or Railroad Retirement benefits, certain S corporations
with "excess net passive income," foreign corporations subject to the branch profits tax, life insurance companies and
taxpayers who may be deemed to have incurred or continued indebtedness to purchase or carry or have paid or incurred
certain expenses allocable to the Bonds. Bond Counsel expresses no opinion regarding any collateral tax consequences.
Prospective purchasers of the Bonds should consult their tax advisors regarding collateral federal income tax
consequences.
Payments of interest on tax-exempt obligations such as the Bonds, are in many cases required to be reported to the IRS.
Additionally, backup withholding may apply to any such payments made to any owner who is not an "exempt recipient"
and who fails to provide certain identifying information. Individuals generally are not exempt recipients, whereas
corporations and certain other entities generally are exempt recipients.
Bond Counsel’s opinion is not a guarantee of result and is not binding on the IRS; rather, the opinion represents Bond
Counsel’s legal judgment based on its review of existing law and in reliance on the representations made to Bond
Counsel and the City’s compliance with its covenants. The IRS has established an ongoing program to audit tax-
exempt obligations to determine whether interest on such obligations is includable in gross income for federal income
tax purposes. Bond Counsel cannot predict whether the IRS will commence an audit of the Bonds. Owners of the
Bonds are advised that, if the IRS does audit the Bonds, under current IRS procedures, at least during the early stages of
an audit, the IRS will treat the City as the taxpayer, and the owners of the Bonds may have limited rights to participate
in the audit. The commencement of an audit could adversely affect the market value and liquidity of the Bonds until the
audit is concluded, regardless of the ultimate outcome.
Bank Qualified
The City has designated the Bonds as "qualified rex-exempt obligations" within the meaning of Section 265(b)(3)(B) of
the Code.
Premium Bonds
An amount equal to the excess of the purchase price of a Bond over its stated redemption price at maturity constitutes
premium on that Bond. A purchaser of a Bond must amortize any premium over that Bond’s term using constant yield
principles, based on the Bond’s yield to maturity. As premium is amortized, the purchaser’s basis in the Bond and the
amount of tax-exempt interest received will be reduced by the amount of amortizable premium properly allocable to the
purchaser. This will result in an increase in the gain (or decrease in the loss) to be recognized for federal income tax
purposes on sale or disposition of the Bond prior to its maturity. Even though the purchaser’s basis is reduced, no
federal income tax deduction is allowed. Purchasers of Bonds at a premium, whether at the time of initial issuance or
subsequent thereto, should consult their tax advisors with respect to the determination and treatment of premium for
federal income tax purposes and the state and local tax consequences of owning such Bonds.
Proposed Tax Legislation; Miscellaneous
Tax legislation, administrative actions taken by tax authorities, and court decisions may cause interest on the Bonds to
be subject, directly or indirectly, to federal income taxation or to be subject to or exempted from state income taxation,
or otherwise prevent the beneficial owners of the Bonds from realizing the full current benefit of the tax status of such
interest. In addition, such legislation or actions (whether currently proposed, proposed in the future or enacted) could
affect the market price or marketability of the Bonds. For example, proposals have been made that could significantly
reduce the benefit of, or otherwise affect, the exclusion from gross income for federal tax purposes of interest on
obligations such as the Bonds. Prospective purchasers of the Bonds should consult their own tax advisors regarding any
pending or proposed federal or state tax legislation, regulations or litigation, and its impact on their individual
situations, as to which Bond Counsel expresses no opinion..
CONTINUING DISCLOSURE UNDERTAKING
In accordance with Section (b)(5) of Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") Rule 15c2-12 under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as the same may be amended from time to time (the "Rule"), the City has agreed in
the Bond Ordinance for the benefit of the owners of the Bonds to provide or cause to be provided to the Municipal
Securities Rulemaking Board ("MSRB") the following annual financial information and operating data for the prior
fiscal year (commencing in 2013 for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012):
(1) Annual financial statements prepared in accordance with the generally accepted accounting principles
applicable to governmental units, as such principles may be changed from time to time by the Washington State Auditor
pursuant to RCW 43.09.200, which statements will not be audited, except that if and when audited financial statements
are otherwise prepared and available to the City, they will be provided (the "Annual Financial Statements");
(2)A statement of authorized, issued and outstanding bonded debt secured by Net Revenue;
(3)Debt service coverage ratios; and
(4) General customer statistics for the Waterworks Utility contained in this Official Statement and

’‘Number of Storm Drainage Customers" under the heading "THE WATERWORKS UTILITY."
Items 2-4 shall be required only to the extent that such information is not included in the Annual Financial Statements.
Such annual information and operating data described above will be so provided on or before the end of nine months
after the end of the City’s fiscal year. The City’s current fiscal year ends on December 31. The City may adjust such
fiscal year by providing written notice of the change of fiscal year to the MSRB. In lieu of providing such annual
financial information and operating data, the City may cross-reference to other documents available to the public on the
MSRB’s internet website or filed with the Commission.
If not provided as part of the annual financial information discussed above, the City will provide the City’s audited
annual financial statement prepared in accordance with the Budgeting Accounting and Reporting System prescribed by
the Washington State Auditor pursuant to RCW 43.09.200 (or any successor statute) when and if available to the
Listed Events. The City agrees to provide or cause to be provided to the MSRB, in a timely manner not in excess often
business days after the occurrence of the event, notice of the occurrence of any of the following events with respect to
the Bonds:
¯principal and interest payment delinquencies;
¯non-payment related defaults, if material;

respect to the tax status of the Bonds, or other material events affecting the tax status of the Bonds;

substantially all of the assets of the City, other than in the ordinary course of business, the entry into a
definitive agreement to undertake such an action or the termination of a definitive agreement relating to any
such actions, other than pursuant to its terms, if material; and
¯appointment of a successor or additional trustee or the change of name of a trastee, if material.
Solely for purposes of disclosure, without any intent to modify the undertaking as set forth above, the City advises that
no credit enhancement, credit or liquidity facilities, or property secures payment of the Bonds. The City shall promptly
determine whether the events described above are material.
Format for Filings with the MSRB. Until otherwise designated by the MSRB or the Commission, any information or
notices submitted to the MSRB in compliance with the Rule are to be submitted through the MSRB’s Electronic
Municipal Market Access system ("EMMA"), currently located at www.emma.msrb.org (which is not incorporated into
this Official Statement by reference). All notices, financial information and operating data required by this undertaking
to be provided to the MSRB must be in an electronic format as prescribed by the MSRB. All documents provided to the
MSRB pursuant to this undertaking must be accompanied by identifying information as prescribed by the MSRB.
Notification Upon Failure to Provide Financial Data. The City also agrees to provide or cause to be provided, in a
timely manner, to the MSRB notice of its failure to provide the annual financial information described above on or prior
to the date set forth above.
Termination/Modification. The City’s obligations to provide annual financial information and notices of listed events
will terminate upon the legal defeasance, prior redemption or payment in full of all of the Bonds. This section, or any
provision hereof, will be null and void if the City (i) obtains an opinion of nationally recognized bond counsel to the
effect that the portion of the Rule that requires that provision is invalid, has been repealed retroactively or otherwise
does not apply to the Bonds and (ii) notifies the MSRB of such opinion and the cancellation of this section.
Notwithstanding any other provision of the undertaking, the City may amend the provisions described in this section
with an approving opinion of nationally recognized bond counsel and in accordance with the Rule. In the event of any
amendment of its undertaking, the City will describe such amendment in the next annual report, and will include a
narrative explanation of the reason for the amendment and its impact on the type (or in the ease of a change of
accounting principles, on the presentation) of financial information or operating data being presented by the City. In
addition, if the amendment relates to the accounting principles to be followed in preparing financial statements, (i)
notice of such change shall be given in the same manner as for a listed event, as described above, and (ii) the annual
report for the year in w~ch the change is made will present a comparison (in narrative form and also, if feasible, in
quantitative form) between the financial statements as prepared on the basis of the new accounting principles and those
prepared on the basis of the former accounting principles.
Bond Owner’s Remedies Under This Section. A Bond Owner’s or Beneficial Owner’s right to enforce the provisions of
the City’s undertaking described in this section will be limited to a fight to obtain specific enforcement of the City’s
obligations, and any failure by the City to comply with the provisions of this undertaking will not be an event of default
with respect to the Bonds. For purposes of this section, "Beneficial Owner" means any person who has the power,
directly or indirectly, to vote or consent with respect to, or to dispose of ownership of, any bonds, including persons
holding bonds through nominees or depositories.
35
Other Ongoing Disclosure Undertakings of the City. The City has entered into written undertakings under the Rule
with respect to its outstanding obligations (the "Prior Und~akings"). Although the City has been filing its annual
financial information on an annual basis, the City recently discovered that ongoing disclosure filings made with respect
to certain obligations were not connected on EMMA to all of the City’s outstanding obligations, including its
Outstanding Parity Bonds. The City r~sponded by submitting an event notice and connecting and!or refilling the
required financial information and operating data for the last five fiscal years on EMMA. The City believes it is
currently in compliance with its Prior Undertakings in all material respects.
RATING
As noted on the cover page of this Official Statement, Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services, a Standard & Poor’s
Financial Services LLC business, has assigned a rating of"AA+" to the Bonds. The rating reflects only the view of the
rating agency and an explanation of the significance of the rating may be obtained from the rating agency. There is no
assurance that the rating will be retained for any given period of time or that the rating will not be revised downward or
withdrawn entirely by the rating agency if, in its judgment, circumstances so warrant. Any such downward revision or
withdrawal of the rating will be likely to have an adverse effect on the market price of the Bonds. The City does not
have any obligation to take any action, other than file a material event notification, if the rating on the Bonds is
changed, suspended or withdrawn.
UNDERWRITING
The Bonds are being purchased by Seattle-Northwest Securities Corporation (the "Underwriter") at an aggregate price
of $9,957,631.90, which represents the principal amount of the Bonds plus original issue premium of $809,905.90 and
less an undeh~cfiter’s discount of $42,274.00. After the initial public offering, the public offering prices may be varied
from time to time.
CERTAIN LEGAL MATTERS
Legal matters incident to the authorization, issuance and sale of Bonds by the City are subject to the approving legal
opinion of Pacifica Law Group LLP, Seattle, Washington, Bond Counsel and Disclosure Counsel. A copy of the form
of the opinion of Bond Counsel is attached hereto as Appendix B.
POTENTIAL CONFLICTS OF INTEREST
Some or all of the fees of the Underwriter and Bond Counsel are contingent upon the issuance and sale of the Bonds.
From time to time, Bond Counsel serves as counsel to the Underwriter and the Financial Advisor in transactions
unrelated to the issuance of the Bonds.

owners of the Bonds that such owners be able to obtain physical Bond certificates, the
ownership of such Bonds may then be transferred to any person or entity as herein provided,
and shall no longer be held by a depository. The Finance Director shall deliver a written request
to the Bond Registrar, together with a supply of physical Bonds, to issue Bonds as herein
provided in any authorized denomination. Upon receipt by the Bond Registrar of all then

against the City to compel that setting aside and payment.

FORM OF BOND COUNSEL OPINION
December 7, 2012
City of Renton, Washington
Renton, Washington
Seattle-Northwest Securities Corporation
Seattle, Washington
Re:City of Renton, Washington
Water and Sewer Revenue Refunding Bonds, 2012 -- $9,190,000
Ladies and Gentlemen:
We have acted as bond counsel to the City of Renton, Washington (the "City"), and have examined a
certified transcript of all of the proceedings taken in the matter of the issuance by the City of its Water and Sewer
Revenue Refunding Bonds, 2012, in the principal amount of $9,190,000 (the "Bonds") issued pursuant to Ordinance
No. 5672, passed by the Council on October 15, 2012 (the "Bond Ordinance"), to refund certain water and sewer
revenue bonds and to pay costs of issuance of the Bonds. Capitalized terms used in this opinion have the meanings
given such terms in the Bond Ordinance.
The Bonds are subject to redemption prior to maturity as provided in the Bond Ordinance and the Bond
Purchase Contract.
Regarding questions of fact material to our opinion, we have relied on representations of the City in the
Bond Ordinance and in the certified proceedings and on other certifications of public officials and others furnished
to us without undertaking to verify the same by independent investigation.
Based on the foregoing, we are of the opinion that, under existing law:
1. The Bonds have been legally issued and constitute valid and binding special obligations of the
City, both principal thereof and interest thereon payable solely out of special funds of the City known as the Bond
Fund and the Reserve Fund, except to the extent that the enforcement of the rights and remedies of the holders of the
Bonds may be limited by laws relating to bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency, moratorium or other similar laws
of general application affecting the fights of creditors, by the application of equitable principles and the exercise of
judicial discretion.
2. The Bond Ordinance is a legal, valid and binding obligation of the City, has been duly authorized,
executed and delivered and is enforceable in accordance with its terms, except to the extent that enforcement may be
limited by laws relating to bank~ptcy, insolvency, moratorium, reorganization or other similar laws of general
application affecting the rights of creditors, by the application of equitable principles and the exercise of judicial
discretion.
3. The City has irrevocably bound itself to set aside and pay into said Bond Fund out of Gross
Revenue of the Waterworks Utility certain fixed amounts necessary to pay and secure the payment of the principal
of and interest on the Bonds as the same become due. The City has further pledged that the payments to be made
into the Bond Fund out of Gross Revenue of the Waterworks Utility shall constitute a lien and charge upon such
Gross Revenue superior to all other charges of any kind or nature whatsoever, except for Maintenance and
Operation Expense of the Waterworks Util!ty, and equal in rank to the lien and charge on such Gross Revenue to
pay and secure the payment of the principal of and interest on the City’s Outstanding Parity Bonds and any Future
B-1
Parity Bonds that may be issued after this date on a parity with such bonds and the Bonds. The City has reserved the
fight to issue Future Parity Bonds on the terms and conditions set forth in the Bond Ordinance.
4. Interest on the Bonds is excludable from gross income for federal income tax purposes under
existing law and is not an item of tax preference for purposes of the federal alternative minimum tax imposed on
individuals and corporations; however, interest on the Bonds is taken into account in determining adjusted current
earnings for the purpose of computing the alternative minimum tax imposed on certain corporations. The opinion
set forth in the preceding sentence is subject to the condition that the City comply with all requirements of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), that must be satisfied subsequent to the issuance of the
Bonds in order that the interest thereon be, and continue to be, excludable from gross income for federal income tax
purposes. The City has covenanted to comply with all applicable requirements. Failure to comply with certain of
such covenants may cause interest on the Bonds to be included in gross income for federal income tax purposes
retroactively to the date of issuance of the Bonds.
The City has designated the Bonds as "qualified tax-exempt obligations" within the meaning of Section
265(b)(3) of the Code.
Except as expressly stated above, we express no opinion regarding any other federal or state income tax
consequences of acquiring, carrying, owning or disposing of the Bonds. Owners of the Bonds should consult their
tax advisors regarding the applicability of any collateral tax consequences of owning the Bonds, which may include
original issue discount, original issue premium, purchase at a market discount or at a premium, taxation upon sale,
redemption or other disposition, and various withholding requirements.
This opinion is given as of the date hereof, and we assume no obligation to update, revise or supplement
this opinion to reflect any facts or circumstances that may hereafter come to our attention or any changes in law that
may hereafter occur.
Very truly yours,

City of Renton
Renton, Washington
We have audited the accompanying financial statements of the governmental activities, the
business-type activities, each major fund and the aggregate remaining fund information of the
City of Renton, King County, Washington, as of and for the year ended December 31, 2011,
which collectively comprise the City’s basic financial statements as listed in the table of
contents. These financial statements are the responsibility of the City’s management. Our
responsibility is to express opinions on these financial statements based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United
States of America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government
Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States. Those standards
require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about ~hether the
financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test
basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also
includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that
our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinions.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects,
the respective financial position of the governmental activities, the business-type activities, each
major fund and the aggregate remaining fund information of the City of Renton, King County,
Washington, as of December 31, 2011, and the respective changes in financial position and,
where applicable, cash flows thereof fur the year then ended in conformity with aecoanting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

As described in Note 1, during the year ended December 31, 2011, the City has implemented the
Govermnenlal Accounting Standards Board Statement.No. 54 - Fund Balance Reporting and
Governmental Fund Type Definitions.
In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we will also issue our report dated June 29,
2012, on our consideration of the City’s internal control over financial reporting and on our tests
of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts and grant agreements
and other matters. That report will be issued under separate cover in the City’s Single Audit
Report. The purpose of that report is to describe the scope of our testing of internal control over
financial reporting and compliance and the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion
on the internal control over financial reporting or on compliance. That report is an integral pint
of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards and should be
considered in assessing’the results of our audit.
Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that the
mauagement’s discussion and analysis on pages 3-1 through 3-14, budgetary comparison
information on page 5-I, pension trust fund on pages 5-2 and information on postemployment
benefits other than pensions on pages 5-3 be presented to supplement the basic financial
statements. Such information, although not a part of the basic financial statements, is required
by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board who considers it to be an essential part of
financial reporting for placing the basic financial statements in an appropriate operational,
economic or historical context. We have applied certain limited procedures to the required
supplementary information in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the
United States of America, which consisted of inquiries of management about the methods of
preparing the information and comparing the information for consistency with management’s
responses to our inquiries, the basic financial statements, and other knowledge we obtained
during the audit of the basic financial statements. We do not express an opinion or provide any
assurance on the information because the limited procedures do not provide us with sufficient
evidence to express an opinion or provide any assurance.
Our audit was performed for the purpose of forming opinions on the financial statements that
collectively comprise the City’s basic financial statements. The accompanying information
listed as combining financial statements on pages 6-1 through 6--40 is presented for purposes of
additional analysis and is not a required part of the basic financial statements. Such information
is the responsibility of management and was derived from and relates directly to the underlying
accounting and other records used to prepare the financial statements. This information has been
subjected to auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and certain
additional procedures, including comparing and reconciling such information directly to the
underlying aecounting and other records used to prepare the financial statements or to the
financial statements themselves, and other additional procedures in accordance with auditing
standards generally accepted in the United States of America. In our opinion, the information is
fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a
whole.

term perspective on the City’s economy.
BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Government-wlde Financial Statements provide readers with a broad overview of the City of
Renton’s finances in a manner similar to a private sector business. They provide both short-term
and long-term information about the City’s overall financial status. The government-wide
statements distinguish between functions of the City that are prindpally supported by taxes and
intergovernmental revenues (referred to as "governmental activities") from functions that are
Intended to recover all or a significant po~on of their costs through user fees and charges
(referred to as "business-type activities.") The governmental activities of the City include a full
range of local government services provided to the public such as police and fire protection; road
maintenance and construction; community planning and economic development; libraries, parks,
and recreational opportunities; and other community services. The business-type activities of the
City include waterworks (water, sewer, and surface water), solid waste management and services,
golf course, and airport.

The Statement of Net Assets presents information on all of the Clty’s assets and liabilities with the
difference between the two reported as net assets. This statement combines and consolidates
governmental funds’ current financial resources (short term available resources) with capital
assets and long-term obligations, which is primarily debt. The Statement of Net Assets serves a
purpose similar to that of the Balance Sheet of a private-sector business. Over time, increases or
decreases In net assets may serve as one Indicator of whether the flnandal position of the City is
Improving or deteriorating. Other Indicators to consider when evaluating the financial position of
the City includes changes to the property tax base, general economic conditions as demonstrated
through business licenses.fees or sales tax revenue, and the condition of the City’s infrastructure
(roads, drainage systems, bridges, and water infrastructure).
The Statement of A~ttvltles focuses upon both the gross and net cost of various activities that are
provided by the government’s general tax and other revenues. This is intended to summarize and
simplify the user’s analysis of cost to various governmental services and/or subsidy to various
business-type activities. By separating program revenue from general revenue, users of the
financial statements can identify the extent to which each program relies on taxes for funding.
The Governmental Activities reflect the City’s basic functions: General Government, Judicial,
Security of Person and Property, Physical Environment, Me.ntal and Physical Health, and Culture
and Recreation. Property, sales, and utility taxes finance the majority of these functions.
All changes in net assets are reported using the accrual basis of accounting, which is similar to the
accounting used in the private sector. The accrual basis of accounting requires that revenues are
reported when earned and expenses are reported when incurred, no matter when the revenue
will actually be received or the obligation will be paid. For example, property taxes are shown as a
receivable and revenue even though some amount of these taxes will not be available to the City
for several years. Unpaid vendor obligafions are illustrated as an accounts payable obligation as of
December 31.
Fund Financial Statements
The Clty uses funds to ensure and demonstrate fiscal integrity and compliance with finance related
legal requirements with a focus on Major Funds. A fund is a group of related accounts that is used
to maintain control over resources that have been segregated for specific activities and objectives.
There are three types of funds: governmental, proprietary, and fiduciary.
A Major Fund has three elements as defined by GASB 34:
i Total assets, liabilities, revenues, or expenditures of that individual governmental or
enterprise funds are at least ten percent (10%) of the corresponding total (assets, liabilities,
etc.) for all funds of that category or type {I.e., governmental, proprietary, or fiduciary); and
Total assets, liabilities, revenues, or expenditures/expenses of the Individual government
fund or enterprise funds are at least five percent (5%} of the corresponding total for all
governmental and enterprise funds combined; or
20II Comprehensive Annum Financial Report City o~ Renton, Washington
¯Any other governmental or enterprise fund that the government’s officials believe is
particularly important.
Governmental Funds present most of a government’s tax-supported activities. The Proprietary
Funds describe and financially manage the government’s business-type activities where all or part
of the activities’ costs are supported by fees and charges that are paid directly by those who
benefit from the activities. Fiduciary Funds control resources held by the government as a trustee
or agent for parties outside of the government. The resources of Fiduciary Funds cannot be used
to support the government’s own programs.
Governmental Funds
The Governmental Fund Balance Sheet and Governmental Fund Statement of Revenues,
Expenditures, and Changes in Fund Balances present separate columns of financial data for the
General Fund, Municipal Facilities CIP Fund and Capital Improvement Fund. These comprise the
City’s major governmental funds. Data from the remaining governmental funds are combined and
presented in a single, aggregated column in the fund statements. Individual fund data for each of
the non-major governmental funds is provided in the form of combining statements.
Governmental Funds are used to account for essentially the same functions reported as
governmental activities in the Government-wide Financial Statements. The focus of Governmental
Fund Financial Statements is on near-term inflows and outflows of available financial resources
and on balances of resources available at the end of the fiscal year. Such information is useful in
evaluating whether there are more or less financial resources that can be spent in the near future
to finance City services.
Because the focus of governmental Fund Financial Statements is a narrower view than that of the
Government-wide Financial Statements, it Is useful to compare information presented for
governmental funds with similar information presented for governmental activities in the
Government-wide Financial Statements. This gives the reader a better understanding of the long-
term impact of the government’s near-term finandng derisions. The Governmental Fund Balance
Sheet and the Governmental Fund Statement of Revenues, Expenditures, and Changes in Fund
Balances provide reconciliation to the governmental activities column in the government-wide
statements to fadlitate this comparison.
The City maintains budgetary controls over its governmental funds, Budgetary controls ensure
compliance with legal provisions embodied in the annual appropriated budget. Governmental
fund budgets are established in accordance with state law and are adopted on a fund level.
General fund budget variances are specifically addressed later in this discussion and analysis.
Proprietary Funds
These types of funds consist of two types of funds: Enterprise and Internal Service. They have
always been operated as private business activity. Enterprise Funds are used to report the same
functions as business-type activities in the Government-wide Financial Statements. Internal
Service Funds are used to report activities that provide supplies and s~rvices to various City
2011 Comprehensive Annum Flnoncial Report City o.f Renton, Washington
departments and to accumulate and allocate the associated costs of providing these services to
the various functions. The revenues and expenses of Internal Service Funds that are duplicated in
other funds are eliminated in the government-wide statements. Because the remaining balances
primarily benefit governmental, rather than business-type activities, they have been included
within Governmental Activities in the Government-wide Statements.
The City of Renton has two major proprietary funds: Waterworks Utility (water, wastewater, and
stormwater) and Solid Waste. The Proprietary Fund Balance Sheet and the Proprietary Fund
Statement of Revenues, Expenses, and Changes in Fund Equity present separate columns Of
financial data for the Waterworks Utility and Solid Waste. Data from the remaining Enterprise
Funds are combined and presented in a single, aggregated column in the fund statements.
Governmental Activities Internal Service Funds are reported separately in this section.
Proprietary Fund statements provide the same type of information as the Government-wlde
Financial Statements, only in more detail, since both apply the accrual basis of accounting. In
comparing the total assets and total liabilities between the two statements, only slight differences
will be noticed. One notable difference is that the "due from other funds" (asset) and the "due to
other funds" (liability) in the proprietary fund statements are combined in a single line called
"internal balances" in the asset section of the Government-wide Statement of Net Assets.
Fiduciary Funds
Fiduciary Funds are used to account for resources held for the benefit of parties outside the
government. Fiduciary funds are not reported in the Government-wide Financial Statements
because the resources of those funds are not available to support the City’s own operations. All of
the City’s fiduciary ac~dvities are reported in a separate Statement of Fiduciary Net Assets and a
Statement of Changes In Fiduciary Net Assets.
Notes to the Financial Statements
The notes provide additional information that is essent|al to a full understanding of the data
provided, and are an integral part of the Government-wide and Fund Financial Statements.
Combining statements for non-major Governmental and Enterprise Funds, as well as Internal
Service Funds, are presented immediately following the required supplementary information.
GOVERNMENT-WIDE FINANCIAL ANALYSIS
Statement of Net Assets
Changes in Net Assets may serve as a useful indicator of a government’~ flnandal position. The
overall financial position has improved for the City of Renton over the prior year. Changes in Net
Assets from 2010 to 2011 shows an increase in total net assets of $21.4 million.
20~i Comprehensive Annual Financial Report City o.f Renton, Washington
Table I is a condensed version of the Government-wide Statement of Net Assets.
The majority of the City’s net assets (85%) are investments in capital assets (e.g., streets, drainage,
construction in progress, buildings, equipment, water and sewer pipes) less any related
outstanding debt used to acquire these assets. The City’s capital assets are used to provide
services to citizens. It should be noted that although the investment in capital assets is reported
net of related debt, resources needed to repay this debt must be provided from other sources
since the capital assets themselves cannot be used to liquidate these liabilities.
Investments In capital assets net of related debt decreased from 2010 to 2011 by $6.3 million.
investments in capital assets decreased by $9.4 million In the Governmental activities, which is
due to the issuance of $16.7 million of new debt to build two new libraries. Very little capital work
had taken place in 2011; therefore no significant assets have been recbrded related to the new
debt. Business-type activities Increased $3.1 million primarily due to capital act|vlty as opposed to
significant reductions in debt although revenue bond debt in the Golf Course fund (a business-type
activity) was replaced by an interfund loan from the General Fund in 2010. Intarfund loan debt Is
not included in the calculation of Investments in capital assets net of related debt.
Restricted assets, representing resources that are subject to external restrictions on how they may
be used, equate to 3.8% of total net assets, up from 1.7% in 2010. This increase is related to the
$16.7 million of new debt issued in 2011 which is restricted for capital construction related to the
new libraries. The remaining balance (unrestricted net assets) of $76.6 million will be used to
meet the City’s ongoing commitments and plans.
As of December 31, 2011, the City reports positive balances in all three categories of net assets,
for the government as a whole, as well as for separate governmental and business-type activities.
Statement of Change In Net Assets
The City’s total net assets (before prior period adjustments) increased in 2011 by $22.4 million.
Governmental activities generated 57% of this total or $12.7 million, while business-type activities
generated $9.7 million of this total.
2011 Comprehensive Annual Financial Report City o, f Renton, Washington
Table 2 is a condensed version of the Statement of Activities for the City.
~97 s~7 ~ ~
Sixty-six percent (66%) of the City’s total activities are for governmental activities such as providing
police, fire, parks, libraries, recreation, building safety, and planning services. The remaining
activities relate to business-type services provided by the City. The largest business-type activities
include water, sewer, surface water and solid waste activities.
Governmental Activities Analysis
Governmental activities cost a total of $108.4. million in 2011, up 2% from 2010. Of this amount,
$43.2 million was paid for either by those who directly benefited from the programs or by other
governments and organizations that subsidized certain programs with grants and contributions.
The net expense (total expenses less program revenues) of $65.2 million was the cost of
governmental services City taxpayers primarily paid through various taxes.
2011 Comprehensive Annual Finenciel Report City o.f Renton, Washington2011 Comprehensive Annual Financial Report City o/ Renton, Washington
Chart i portrays the cost of each of the City’s governmental programs along with each program’s
generated revenues (fees and intergovernmental revenues specifically related to that program).
Chart 2 depicts the sources of revenues that fund governmental activities. Approximately sixty-
three percent (63%) is from various taxes. Charges for services, grants, and interest earnings
generate thirty-three percent (37%} of total revenue for general governmental activities.
Business-Type Activities Analysis
Charts 3 and 4 present the same information on business-type activities as illustrated for
governmental activities. Chart 3 shows the expense of each of the City’s business-type programs
along with each program’s generated revenues (fees and intergovernmental revenues specifically
related to that program).
The City’s largest business-type activity, the Waterworks Utility, had a positive net change ($8.4
million) at the end of 2011 compared to $21,000 change in 2010. This large increase is primarily
due to rate increases, which are necessary to replace failing systems and provide on-going capital
infrastructure replacements. The City generated $45.6 million in various fees for services and
other sources from waterworks activities and had $37.1 million in expenses. The Airport’s total
expenses were ~;2.0 million, Total revenues for 2011 were $2.0 million, which is consistent with
2010 revenues. The Solid Waste Utility’s revenues were $15.0 million generated from fees for
services and 5111,488 in grants and contributions. The total expenses were $14.4 million. The
Golf Course generated a total of $2.0 million in green fees, driving range charges, and other user
fees. The total expenses for the Golf Course were $2.1 million. The Golf Course had a loss of
$85,000 for the year.
Manaqement’s Discussion and Anaiysis, 3-I0
20ii Comprehensive Annual Financial Report City o.f Renton, Washington
Business-type activities are supported primarily from charges for services. In the City of Renton,
$62.3 million wa~ generated from charges for services in the business-type activities. These
comprise ninety-eight percent (95%) of the total financial support for these activities. Grant
revenues increased $1.8 million from 2010 to 2011 largely due to a surface and storm water
improvement grant for approximately $1.0 million and US Department of Transportation grant for
approximately $500,000 for the airport taxiway improvements.
FINANCIAL ANALYSIS OF THE GOVERNMENT’S FUNDS
Governmental Funds Analysis
The focus of the City’s governmental funds is to provide information on near-term inflows,
outflows, and balances of spendable resources. Such Information is useful in assessing the City’s
financing requirements. In particular, unreserved fund balance may serve as a useful measure of a
government’s net resources available for spending at the end of the fiscal year.
As of the end of the fiscal year, the City’s governmental funds reported combined ending fund
balances of $49.2 million, an increase of $17.2 million In comparison to last year. This large
increase is attributed to a $16.7 million in general obligation bonds issue in 2011. Approximately
fifty-nine percent (59%) constitutes unrestricted fund balance, which has been either committed or
assigned to reflect the City Council and management’s plans and commitments to be expended in
future periods. The remainder of the fund balance is reserved or designated to indicate that it is
not available for new spending because it has already been committed for operating or capital
reserves. The large increase in fund balances resulted from the issuance of general obligation
debt, mentioned above, and is restricted for the capital construction of two new libraries.
The General Fund is the chief operating fund of the City. At the end of the current year,
unrestricted fond balance of the general fund was $13.8 million, while total fund balance ended at
$15.7 million. Although unrestricted, this balance has assigned designation for specific functions
and plans approved by the City Council. The fund balance increased by $1.3 million as the City was
able to realize expenditure savings in excess of revenue received.
The Municipal Facilities CIP fund has been included as a major fund of the City due to the
importance of municipal projects that may be accounted for In this fund in any given year. The
fund balance increased by $17.1 million in 2011 and is directly related the general obligation debt
noted earlier.
The Capital Improvement fund is the last major governmental fund. This fund accounts for the
many transportation-related projects in the City. The fund balance increased $129,200.
Proprietary Funds Analysis
The fund financial statements for the proprietary funds are presented in more detail, but
essentially provide the same type of information found in the business-type activities in the
government-wide financial statements. Net assets in the Waterworks Utility Fund and the Solid
Waste Fund were $215.4 million and $2.9 million respectively. This represents an increase in the
20Ii Cornprehens~ Annua! Financial Report Gty o~ Renton, Woshlngton
Waterworks Utility Fund of $7.5 million and an increase in the Solid Waste Fund of $0.7 million.
The factors concerning the finances of these two funds have been addressed In the discussion of
business-type activities.
GENERAL FUND BUDGETARY HIGHLIGHTS
During the year there was a $4.2 million increase in appropriations between the original and final
amended budget. This increase was mainly due to 2010’s LEOFF1 medical contribution to fully
fund actuarially determined annual obligations for 2010 ($700,000) and to fund the gap for
banking s.ervlce fees ($197,000). Other increases were department carryfoward requests which
were offset by an increase of $2,7 million to budgeted revenues. In addition, the General Fund did
not spend $6.1 million of the legally appropriated expenditures. As a result, the General Fund fund
balance increased by $768,000 in 2011.
CAPITAL ASSET AND DEBT ADMINISTRATION
Capital Assets
The City of Renton’s investment in capital assets, including construction in progress, for its
governmental and business-type activities as of December 31, 2011, amounts to $691.3 million as
presented on the following table.
The increase of $6.6 million in 2011 is made up of large capital projects such as Rainier Ave.,
Strander Blvd., Lake Washington Trail, Rainer Ave. storm water improvements, and
Stonegate/Summerwind wastewater improvements. More detail about the City’s Capital Assets
can be found in Note 5 to the financial statements.
Debt Administration
As shown in Table 4, the City’s total outstanding debt at December 31, 2011, was $129.7 million.
This was a net increase (new issues less prindpal payments and refunding) of $10.5 million.
Manogemen~’$ Discussion end AnMysls,
2011 Comprehensive Annual Financial Rel~ort City of Renton, Washington
The City was able to reduce aggregate debt service payments and realize present value gains by
refunding 2001 General Obligation Refunding Bonds. More detailed information about the City’s
long-term debt can be found in Note 13 to the financial statements.
FUTURE YEAR’S BUDGETARY IMPACTS
The 2011-2012 adopted budget is the first biennial budget for the City of Renton. After the mid-
biennial budget adjustment, total adopted revenue is $487 million against total expenditures of
$532 million. The adjusted revenue shows an increase of 6.9% from the combined 2009-2010
adopted budget level and the expenditures reflect an increase of 14.9% from the adopted 20~9-
2010 budgeted expenditures. In addition to implementing a biennial budget, the City also formed
a Community Budget Advisory Group comprised of local residents, business owners, and
community leaders. This group was asked several questions in order to solicit their suggestions on
opportunities for greater effidencles and costs savings. They were able to provide the City with a
number of valuable recommendations, some of which have been included in the 2011-2012
adopted budget.
We initially saw a promising start in early 2010, but the recovery slowed to a crawl during the
second quarter of 2010. Our modest growth projections for 2011 were barely met. Housing
starts and permits slowly began increasing in 2011 and continue with upward growth into the first
quarter of 2012. During budget preparation in 2010, our preliminary projections indicated that
maintaining current levels of services in General Government Operations would result in a deficit
of $2 million in this budget" period. We made the necessary adjustments to bring our
expenditures in line with our revenue projections through the next biennium. Every department
made difficult choices, reducing or reorganizing services while minimizing adverse impacts to our
citizens. In addition, the 2011-2012 adopted budget does not restore any of the service
reductions made during 2010 even though some of these cuts and reductions cannot be sustained
in the long run. It is likely these service reductions will remain for the 2013-2014 biennial budget~
The City is committed to continuing efforts to evaluate the way we do business. We will continue
to right-size the structure of government, We will continue to engage our emplovees to help find
innovative and effective ways of serving our citizens. We will continue to practice fiscal
responsibility and reduce our debt. And we will continue to work with our labor groups to find
sustainable ways of managing our labor costs In order for us to continue to provide quality
services to our citizens with fewer dollars.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
January 1, 2011 through December 31, 2011
NOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The City of Renton was incorporated on September 6, 1901, and operate~ under the laws of the
State of Washington applicable to a Non-Charter code city with a Mayor/Council form of
government. A full-time Mayor and seven part-time Council members serve the City, all elected
at large to four-year terms. The City provides the full range of municipal services authorized by
state statues, together with a Municipal Airport, a Waterworks Utility, a Solid Waste Utility, and
a Municipal Golf Course.
The accounting and reporting polldes of the City related to the funds Included in the
accompanying financial statements conform to generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP)
applicable to state and local governments. GAAP for local governments include those principles
prescribed by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB), the Financial Accounting
Standards Board (FASB), when applicable, and the American Institute of Certified Public
Accountants (AICPA) pronouncements that have been made applicable by GASB Statements or
Interpretations.
In accordance with GASB Statement 20, the City has not applied to its enterprise activities FASB
Statements and Interpretations, Accounting Principles Board opinions, and Accounting
Research Bulletins of the Committee of Accounting Procedure issued after November 30, 1989.
Effective for Fiscal Year 2011 reporting, the City implemented the following new accounting and
reporting standards issued by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB):
GASB Statement No. 54 - Fund B~lonce ReporUng and Governmental Fund Types-
This Statement establishes fund balance classifications that comprise a hierarchy based
primarily on the extent to which a government is bound to observe constraints imposed
upon the use of the resources reported in governmental funds. The statement further
provides clarified definitions of the general fund, special revenue fund type, capital
projects fund type, debt service fund type, and permanent fund type.
A. REPORTING ENTITY
As required by GAAP the City’s financial statements present the City of Renton - the primary
government.
The City of Renton’s Mayor appoints the Governing Board for the Renton Housing Authority,
which is not considered a component unit of the City. The City is under no obligation to
subsidize, nor does it exercise any other prerequisite for inclusion.
The City of Renton has no component units (either blended or discretely presented) included in
these statements.
201i Comprehensive Annual Ftnondal Report City qf Renton, Washington
B.BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - GASB 34 PRESENTATION
The City’s basic financial statements include both government-wide (reporting the City as a
whole) and fund financial statements (reporting the City’s major funds). Both the government-
wide and fund financial statements categorize primary activities as either government or
business-type.
GOVERNMENT-WIDE STATEMENTS
In the Government-wide Statement of Net Assets, both the governmental and business-type
activities columns (a) are presented on a consolidated basis by column, and (b) are reported on
a full accrual, economic resource basis, which recognized all long-term assets and receivables as
well as long-term debt and obligations. The City’s net assets are reported in three parts -
investment in capital assets, net of related debt; restricted net assets; and unrestricted net
assets. The City first utilizes restricted resources to finance qualifying activities.
The Government-wide Statement of Activities reports both the gross and net cost of each of the
City’s functions and business-type activities (general government, judicial, public safety,
physical environment, transportation, economic environment, health and human services,
culture and recreation, waterworks utility, airport, solid waste utility, and golf course). General
government revenues (property taxes, timber taxes, retail sales and use taxes, business taxes,
excise taxes, and other taxes) also support the functions. The Statement of Activities reduces
gross expenses (including depreciation) by related program revenues, operating and capital
grants and contributions. Program revenues must be directly associated with the function or a
business-type activity. Operating grants include operating specific and discretionary (either
operating or capital) grants while the capital grants column reflects capital specific grants.
General revenues normally cover the net cost, by function or business-type activity.
The Government-wide focus ls more on the sustainabllity of the City as an entity and the
change in the City’s net assets resulting from the current year’s activities.
The City’s fiduciary funds are presented in the fund financial statements. Since the assets are
being held for the benefit of a third party and cannot be used for obligations of the City, they
are not included in the Government-wide statements.
FUND FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
In the fund flnandal statements, the financial transactions are recorded in individual funds,
each accounted for by a separate set of self-balandng accounts that comprise assets, Ilal~llities,
reserves, fund equity, revenues, and expenditures or expenses. The presentation is by major
funds in either the governmental or business-type categories. GASB Statement 34 sets forth
the minlmum criteria for the determination of a major fund. The non-major funds are
combined In the fund financial statements and are detailed in the combining section.
The governmental major fund statements in the fund financial stater~ent are presented on
current financial resources and modified accrual basis of accounting. Since governmental fund
Basic Financial Stotements, 4-17
City o~ Renton, Washington
statements are presented on a different measurement focus and basis of accounting than the
Government-wide statements’ governmental column, reconciliation is presented at the end of
the statement, which briefly explains the adjustments necessary to transform the fund
statements into the Government-wide presentation.
Internal service funds of a government are presented In summary form as part of the
proprietary fund financial statements. Since the prindpal users of the internal services are the
City’s governmental activities, financial statements for internal service funds are consolidated
into the governmental column when presented at the governmental level. These services are
reflected in the appropriate functional activity (general government, judicial, public safety,
physical environment, transportation, economic environment, health and human services,
culture and recreation).
Interfund fund activity has been eliminated from the Government-wide financial statements.
Exceptions are payments in lie~J of taxes, external type transactions within the internal service
funds (revenue and expenses for Interest or services provided to other governmental
organizations), and other charges for utilities. Elimination of these charges would distort the
direct cost and program revenues for these functlon~.
The following describes each fund as presented In the fund financial statements.
MAJOR FUNDS
GOVERNMENTAL FUNDS
GENERAL FUND
The General Fund is the primary operating fund of the city. It is used to account for the
resources and disbursements of ordinary City operations that are not required to be accounted

C. MEASUREMENT FOCUS AND BASIS OF ACCOUNTING
Basis of Accounting refers to the point at which revenues or expenditures/expenses are
recognized in the accounts and reported in the financial statements. It relates to the timing of
the measurement made regardless of the measurement focus applied:
1. Accrual
Both governmental and business-type activities in the Government-wide financial statements
and the proprietary and fiduciary fund financial statements are presented on the accrual basis
of accounting. Revenues are recognized when earned and expenses are recognized when
incurred.
Substantially all governmental fund revenues are accrued. Property taxes are billed and
collected within the same period in which taxes are levied. Subsidies and grants to proprietary
funds, which finance either capital or current operations, are reported as non-operating
revenue based on GASB Statement 33. In applying GASB Statement 33 to grant revenues, the
provider recognizes liabilities and expenses and the recipient recognizes receivables and
City of Renton, Washington
revenue when the eligibility requirements, including time requirements, are met. Resources
transmitted before the eligibility requirements are met, are reported as advances by the
provider and deferred revenue by the r~ciplent~
2. Modified Accrual
The governmental funds financial statements are presented on the modified basis of
accounting. Under the modified accrual basis of accounting, revenues are recorded when
susceptible to accrual: Le., both measurable and available. "Available" means collectible within
the current period or soon enough thereafter to be used to pay liabilities of the current period.
The City considers all revenue reported in the governmental funds to be available if the
revenues are collected within sixty days after year-end. Expenditures are generally recognized
under the modified accrual basis of accounting when the related liability is incurred; The
exception to this general rule is that principal and interest on general obligation long-term
debt, if any, is recognized when due.
D. ASSETS, UABIUTIES, AND FUND EQUITY
1, Cash and Cash Equivalents
The City has defined cash and cash equivalents as cash on hand, demand deposits, and all
highly liquid investments (including restricted assets) with matudty of three months or less

assets as cash and cash equivalents or investments in the various funds. The interest on these
investments is prorated to the applicable funds. Included in this category are all funds invested
in the Local Government Investment Pool and Municipal investor Account, Excluded from this

Special assessments receivable consist of current and delinquent assessments and related
interest and penalties. De,ferred assessments consist of special assessments not due within one
year.
Receivables have been reported net of estimated uncollectible accounts. Because property
taxes, special assessments, and utility billings are considered liens on property, no estimated
uncollectible amounts are established.
Activity between funds that are representative of lendlngJborrowlng arrangements outstanding
at the end of the fiscal year are referred to either "due to/from other.funds" (i.e., the current
portion of interfund loans) or Uadvances to/~om other~unds" (i.e., the non-current portion of
interfund loans). All other outstanding balances between the governmental activities and
business-type activities are reported in the Government-wide financial statements as Uinternal
balances~ (Refer to Note 10).

balance reserve account in applicable governmental funds to indicate that they are not
available for appropriation and are not expendable available financial resources.
In the Government-wide financial statements, and proprietary fund types In the fund financial
statements, long-term liabilities are reported in applicable governmental activities, business-
type activities, or proprietary fund type statement of net assets.

face value (exduding accrued interest and issuance costs).

legally adopted budgets. There have been no material violations of finance-related legal or
contractual provisions, and there have been no expenditures exceeding legal appropriations in
any of the funds of the City.
A. PROCEDURES FOR ADOPTING THE ORIGINAL BUDGET
The City of Renton’s budget procedures are mandated by the Chapter 35A.33 of the Revised

is based on priorities established by the Coundl; estimates provided by the City
departments during the preceding months; balanced by revenue estimates made by the
Mayor.
2.The City Coundl conducts public hearings on the proposed budget in November and
December.

final balanced budget no later than December 31,

has the legal authority to increase or decrease a given fund’s annual budget. This is
accomplished by City ordinance. The budget was amended three times during 2011.

NOTE 4. PROPERTY TAXES
The King County Finance Director acts as an agent to collect property taxes levied in the county
for all taxing authorities. Taxes are levied annually, January 1, on property value listed as of the
prior.August 31. Assessed values are established by the King County Assessor at 100 percent of
fair market value. A revaluation of all property is required every two years; however, King
County has the ability to revalue annually.
Property taxes levied by the King County Assessor and collected by the King County Finance
Director become a lien on the first day of the lew year and may be paid in two equal
installments If the total amount exceeds $30. The first half of real property taxes is due on April
30 and the balance is due October 31. Delinquent taxes bear interest at the rate of 12 percent
and are subject to additional penalties if not paid as scheduled. No allowance for uncollectible
taxes is established because delinquent taxes are considered fully collectible.
At year-end, property taxes are recorded as a receivable with the portion not expected to be
collected within 60 days offset by deferred revenue. During the year, property tax revenues are
recognized when cash is received.
The tax rate for general City operations is limited to $3.60 per $1,000 of assessed value (RC~.
84.52.043). Of this amount, up to .45 cents per thousand dollars may be designated for
contribution to the Firemen’s Pension Fund. If a report by a qualified actuary on the condition
of the Firemen’s Pension Fund establishes that this amount (or portion of) Is not necessary to
maintain the actuarial soundness of the fund, the amount can be used for any other munldpal
purpose (RCW 41.16.060).
The tax rate limit may be reduced for any of the following reasons:
1.The Levy Umit: the levy limit calculation applies to a taxing district’s budget, and not to
increases in the assessed value or tax bill of individual properties. Initiative 747 which
restricted individual taxing districts from collecting, in any year, more than a one percent
increase in their regular, non-voted, leW over the highest lew amount since ~.985 was
overturned by the courts. However during 2007, the state legislature reinstated this limit
City o~ Renton, Woshlngton
with the passage of H82416. New construction, annexations, and excess levies approved by
the voters are not included in the levy limit calculation. If the assessed valuation increases
by more than one percent due to revaluation, the lew rate will be decreased.
The One Percent Constitution Umit: The Washington State Constitution limits the regular
{non-voted) combined property tax rate applied to an individual’s property to one percent
($10 per $1,000) on the market valuation. Voters may approve spedal levies that are added
to this figure. If the taxes of all districts exceed this amount, each is proportionately
reduced until the total is at or below the one percent limit.
3. The City may voluntarily lew taxes below the legal limit.
Special levies approved by the voters are not subject to the above limitations. There is
currently no excess levy for General Obligation Bond debt~ The City’s r~gular lew per the King
County Assessor’s 2011 Annual Report is 2.83207.
NOTE 5, CAPrrALASSETSAND DEPRECIATION

Public Emolovees’ Retirement System (PERSTI Plans 1, 2. and 3
Plan Descdntion
PERS is a cost-sharing multiple-employer retirement system comprised of three separate plans
for membership purposes: Plans 1 and 2 are defined benefit plans and Plan 3 is a defined
benefit plan with a defined contribution component.
Membership in the system includes: elected officials; state employees; employees of the
Supreme, Appeals, and Superior courts (other than judges currently in a judicial retirement
system); employees of legislative committees; community and technical colleges, college and
university employees not participating in national higher education retirement programs;
judges of district and municipal courts; and employees of local governments.
PERS participants, who joined the PERS system by September 30, 1977, are Plan 1 members.
Those who Joined on or after October 1, 1977; and by either, February 28, 2002 for state and
higher education employees, or August 31, 2002 for local government employees, are Plan 2
members unless they exercise an option to transfer their membership to Plan 3. PERS
participants joining the system on or after March 1, 2002 for state and higher education
2011Comprehens~eAnnuMFinm~dMRepoR City o~ Re~ton, Washington
employees, or September 1, 2002 for local government employees, have the irrevocable option
of choosing membership In either PERS Plan 2 or PERS Plan 3. The option must be exercised
within 90 days of employment. An employee is reported In Plan 2 until a choice is made.
Employees who fail to choose within 90 days default to PERS Plan 3. Notwithstanding, PERS
Plan 2 and Plan 3 members may opt out of plan membership if terminally ill, with less than five
years to llve.
PERS defined benefit retirement benefits are financed from a combination of investment
earnings and employer and employee contributions. PERS retirement benefit provisions are
established In state statute and may be amended only by the State Legislature.
PERS Plan 1 members are vested after the completion of five years of eligible service. Plan 1
members are eligible for retirement at any age after 30 years of service, or at age 60 with five
years of service, or at age 55 with 25 years of service, The annual benefit is two percent of the
average final compensation (AFC) per year of service, capped at 60 percent. (The AFC is based
on the greatest compensation during any 24 eligible consecutive compensation months.) Plan
1 members who retire from inactive status prior to the age of 65 may receive actuarially
reduced benefits. The benefit is actuarially reduced to reflect the choice of a survivor option. A
cost-of-living allowance (COLA) is granted at age 66 based on years of service credit times the
COLA amount, increased by three percent annually. Plan 1 members may also elect to receive
an additional COLA amount that provides an automatic annual adjustment based on the
Consumer Price Index. To offset the cost of this annual adjustment, the benefit is reduced.
PEPS Plan 2 members are vested after completion of five years of eligible service. Plan 2
members may retire at age 65 with five years of service with an allowance of two percent of the
AFC per year of service. (The AFC is based on the greatest compensation during any eligible
consecutive 60-month period.) Plan 2 members who retire prior to the age of 65 receive
reduced benefits. If retirement is at 55 or older with at least 30 years of service, a three
percent per year reduction applies; otherwise an actuarial reduction will apply. The benefit is
also actuarially reduced to reflect the choice of a survivor option. There is no cap on years of
service credit; and a cost-of-living allowance is granted (based on the Consumer Price Index),
capped at three percent annually.
PERS Plan 3 has a dual benefit structure. Employer contributions finance a defined benefit
component, and member contributions finance a defined contribution component. The
defined benefit portion provides a benefit calculation at one percent of the AFC per year of
service. (The AFC is based on the greatest compensation during any eligible consecutive 60-
month period.) Effective June 7, 2006, Plan 3 members are vested in the defined benefit
po~on of their plan after ten years of service; or after five years if twelve months were earned
after age 44; or after five service credit years earned in PERS 2 prior to June 1, 2003. Plan 3
members are immediately vested in the defined contribution portion of their plan. Vested Plan
3 members are eligible to retire with full benefits at age 65, or at age 55 with 10 years of
service. Plan 3 members who retire prior to age 65 receive reduced benefits. If retirement is at
age 55 or older with at least 30 years of service, a three percent per year reduction applies;
otherwise an actuarial reduction will apply. The benefit is also actuarially reduced to reflect the
~ oJ Renton, Washington
choice of a survivor opUon. There is no cap on years of service credit; and Plan 3 provides the
same cost-of-llving allowance as Plan 2.
The defined contribution portion can be distributed in accordance with an option selected by
the member, eithe~ as a lump sum or pursuant to other options authorized by the Employee
Retirement Benefits Board.
Judicial Benefit Multiplier
Beginning January 1, 2007 through December 31, 2007 judicial members of PERS were given
the choice to participate in the Judicial Benefit Program (JBM). Jus~dces and Judges in PERS 1
and 2 may make a one-time irrevocable election to pay increased contributions that would fund
a retirement benefit with a 3.5% multiplier. The benefit would be capped at 75% of AFC.
Judges in PERS Plan 3 can elect a 1.6% of pay per year of service benefit, capped at 37.5% of
average compensation.
Members who choose to participate In JBM will accrue service credit at a higher multiplier
beginning with the date of their election, be subject to the benefit cap of 75% of AFC, pay
higher contributions, stop contributing to the Judicial Retirement Account (JRA), and be given
the option to increase the multiplier on past judicial service. Members who do not choose to
participate will: continue to accrue service credit at the regular multiplier; continue to
participate in JRA, if applicable; never be a participant in the JBM Program; and continue to pay
contributions at the regular PERS rate.
Newly elected or appointed justices and judges who chose to become PERS members on or
after January 1, 2007, or who have not previously opted into PERS membership, were required
to participate in the JBM Program. Members required into the JBM program would: return to
prior PERS Plan if membership had previously been established; be mandated into Plan 2 and
not have a Plan 3 transfer choice, if a new PERS member; accrue the higher multiplier for all
judicial service; not contribute to JRA; and not have the option to increase the multiplier for
past judicial service.
Membership in PERS consisted of the following as of the latest actuarial valuation date for the
plans of June 30, 2010:
Retirees and benefldades receiving benefits 76,899
Terminated plan members entitled to but not yet receiving benefits 28,860

Funding Policy
Each biennium, the state Pension Funding Council adopts Plan 1 employer contribution rates,
Plan 2 employer and employee contributions rates, and Plan 3 employer contribution rates.
Employee contribution rates for Plan 1 are established by statute at six percent for state
agencies and local government unit employees, and 7.5 percent for state government elected
officials. The employer and employee contribution rates for Plan 2 and the employer
contribution rate for Plan 3 are developed by the Office of the State Actuary to fully fund Plan 2
and the defined benefit portion of P[an 3. All employers are required to contribute at the level
established by the Legislature. Under PERS 3, employer contributions finance the defined
benefit portion of the plan, and member contributions finance the defined contribution
portion. The Employee Retirement Benefits Board sets Plan 3 employee contribution rates. Six
rate options are available ranging from 5 to 15 percent; two of the options are graduated rates
dependent on the employee’s age. As a result of the implementation of the Judicial Benefit
Multiplier Program in January 2007, a second tier of employer and employee rates was
developed to fund, along with investment earnings, the increased retirement benefits of those
justices and Judges that participate in the program. The methods used to determine the
contribution requirements are established under state statute in accordance with Chapters
41.40 and 41.45 RCW.
The required contrlbution rates expressed as a percentage of current-year covered payroll, as
of December 31, 2011, were as follows:

provide governance of LEOFF Plan 2. The Board’s duties include adopting contribution rates
and recommending polio/changes to the Legislature for the LEOFF Plan 2 retirement plan.
LEOFF defined benefit retirement benefits are financed from a combination of investment
earnings, employer and employee contributions, and a special funding situation in which the
state pays through state legislative appropriations. LEOFF retirement benefit provisions are
established in state statute and may be amended by the State Legislature.
LEOFF Plan 1 members are vested after the completion of five years of eligible service. Plan

Pertent of Flna{
Term of ~Average Salary
20 or more years 2.0%
10 but ~ess than 20 yea~I~%

The FA5 is the basic monthly salary received at the time of retirement, provided a member has
held the same position or rank for 12 months preceding the date of retirement. Otherwise, It is
the average of the highest consecutive 24 months’ salary within the last ten years of service. A
cost-of-living allowance is granted (indexed to the Consumer Price Index).
LEOFF Plan 2 members are vested after the completion of five years of eligible service. Plan 2
members may retire at the age of 50 with 20 years of service, or at age 53 with five years of

benefits. Benefits are actuarially reduced for each year that the benefit commences prior to age
53 and to reflect the choice of a survivor option. If the member has at least 20 years of service
credit and is age 50, the reduction is three percent for each year prior to age 53. There is no
cap on years of service credit; and a cost-of-llving allowance is granted (indexed to the

Significant actuarial assumptions used in the January 1, 2011, valuation include:
Valuation date: January 1, 2011
Actuarial cost method: entry age normal
Amo~zation method: 30~year, closed as of January 1, 2000
Remaining amortization period: 20 years
Asset valuation method: fair value
Actuarial assumptions: 1) investment rate of return - 4%; 2) projected salary increases -
3.75%; 3) inflation - 2.75%; and, 4) cost-of-living adjustments - based upon salary increase
assumption for FPF benefits, inflation assumption for LEOFF benefits.
The Annual Required Contribution (ARC) was computed using the Entry Age Normal Cost
Method. Under this method the projected benefits are allocated on a level basis as a
percentage of Salary over the earnings of each individual between entry age and assumed exit
age. The amount allocated to each year is called the Normal Cost and the portion of the
Actuarial Present Value of all benefits not provided for by future Normal Cost payments is
called the Actuarial Accrued Uabllity. Since all members have already retired, the amount of
the Normal Cost Is zero. The Unfunded Actuarial Accrued Uabillty (UAAL) is the Actuarial
Accrued Uability minus the actuarial value of the Fund’s assets.
The following Annual Pension Cost and Net Pension Obligation table presents the annual

continual revision as actual results are compared with past expectations and new estimates are
made about the future.
2021 Comprehensive Annu=l FlnanciM Report Ci~ of Renton, Weshingtan
The schedule of funding progress, presented as required supplementary information following
the notes to the financial statements, presents multi-year trend information that shows
whether the actuarial value of plan assets is increasing or decreasing over time relative to the
actuarial liabilities for benefits.
Actuarial Methods and Assumptions
Projections of benefits for financial reporting purposes are based on the substantive plan (the
plan as understood by the employer and plan members) and indude the types of benefits
PrOvided at the time of each valuation. The actuarial methods and assumptions used include
techniques that are designed to reduce the effects of short-term volatility in actuarial accrued
liabilities, consistent with the long-term perspective of the calculations.
The January 1, 2011 actuarial valuation repor~ was prepared using the projected unit credit
method. The actuarial assumptions used included a 4.00% discount rate, which is based upon
the long-term investment yield On the investments that are expected to be used to finance the
payment of benefits. The following health care trend rate assumptions were used:
Expected Armual Incz~ase In Heal~ C~re Cost
Medicare Nu~fn8 Den~[ and
The UAAL is being amortized based on a level dollar amortization over a closed 30 year-period
that began in 2008 at the assumed discount rate.

situations that are not yet resolved but where, based on available information, management

pending claims.
Contingencies under Grant Provisions
The City participates in a number of federal and state assisted programs. These grants are
subject to audit by the grantors of their representatives. Such audits could result in requests

The City of Renton is a member of the Washington Cities Insurance Authority (WCIA).
Utilizing Chapter 48.62 RCW (self-Insurance regulation) and Chapter 39.34 RCW (Interlocal
Cooperation Act), nine cries originally formed WCIA on January 1, 1981. WCIA was created for
the purpose of providing a pooling mechanism for jointly purchasing insurance, jointly self-
insuring, and/or jointly contracting for risk management services. WCIA has a total of 150
members.
New members initially contract for a three-year term and thereafter automatically renew on an
annual basis. A one-year withdrawal notice is required before membership can be terminated.
Termination does not relieve a former member from its unresolved loss hlstory incurred during
membership,
Uability coverage is written on an occurrence basis, without deductibles. Coverage indudes
general, automobile, police, public officials’ errors or omissions, stop gap, and employee
beneft~s liability. Umits are $4 million per occurrence self insured layer, and $16 million per
occurrence in the re-insured excess layer. The excess layer Is insured by the purchase of
reinsurance and insurance and is subject to aggregate limits. Total limits are $20 million per
occurrence subject to aggregate sublimits in the excess layers. The Board of Directors
determines the limits and terms of coverage annually.
Insurance coverage for property, automobile physical damage, fidelity, inland marine, and boiler
and machinery are purchased on a group basis. Various deductibles apply by type of coverage.
Property insurance and auto physical damage are self-funded from the members’ deductible to
$500,000 for all perils other than flood and earthquake, and insured above that amount by the
purchase of Insurance.
In-house services include risk management consultation, loss control field services, claims and
litigation administration, and loss analyses. WCIA contracts for the claims Investigation
consultants for personnel issues and land use problems, insurance brokerage and lobbyist
services.
WCIA is fuliy funded by its members, who make annual assessments on a prospectively rated
basis; as determined by an outside, independent actuary. The assessment covers loss, loss
adjustment, and administrative expenses. As outlined in the inter[ocal, W¢IA retains the right to
additionally assess the membership for any funding shortfall.
An investment committee, using investment brokers, produces additional revenue by
investment of WCIA’s assets In financial instruments which comply with all State guidelines.

A Board of Directors governs WCIA, which Is comprised of one designated representative from
each member. The Board elects an Executive Commlttee and appoints a Treasurer to provide
general policy direction for the organization. The WCIA Executive Director reports to the

NOTE 11. NETASSETS
The Government-wide and business type fund financial statements utilize a net asset
presentation. Net assets are the difference between assets and liabilities. Net assets are
categorized as investments in capital assets (net of related debt), restricted, and unrestricted.
A.Investment in Capital Assets (net of related debt) is intended to reflect the portion of net
assets that are associated with non-liquid, capital assets less outstanding capital asset
’ related debt.
The net related debt is the debt less the outstanding liquid assets and any associated
unamortized costs.
Restricted net assets are liquid assets (generated from revenues and not bond proceeds),
which have third party (statutory, bond covenant, or granting agency) limitations on their
use. The City would typically use restricted net assets first, as appropriated opportunities
arise, but reserve the right to selectively defer the use thereof to a future project or
replacement equipment acqulsltlon.
Restricted governmental activity net assets are as follows:
Unrestricted net assets represent unrestricted liquid assets. Unrestricted Governmental
Activities have committed and assigned designations that reflect the City Coundl and
management’s plans and commitments to expend resources for certain purposes in future
periods. Funds with committed designations reflect amounts constrained by the City
Council, either through formal budget adoption or other purposes formally approved by the
Council. Amounts with assigned designations reflect all amounts remaining in
governmental funds, other than the general fund, not classified as nonspendable, restricted
or committed. Assigned amounts also include year-end encumbrances that have received
approval from the City Council and re-appropriated in the following year’s carry forward
budget. The City’s financial policies require a maximum amount of 12% and minimum of
8% fund balance to remain in the general fund for cash flow purposes.
Unrestricted governmental net assets are classified as follows:
NOTE 12. PRIOR PERIOD ADJUSTMENTS
Buslness-Tvne Activities
A prior period adjustment of $1,066,493 was made to reduce revenue and receivable balances
for Special Assessment District principal. This amount is for outstanding principal not due to
the City until the effected propert,/owners take action to connect to the wastewater system. In
prior years this outstanding amount was recorded as a revenue and receivable.
NOTE 13. LONG TERM DEBT
The City of Renton’s long-term debt consists of General Obligation Debt, repaid mainly from
general governmental revenue sources, Proprietary Debt, repaid from proprietary revenues and
compensated absences/other post employment benefits. These debts are accounted for in the

APPENDIX E
BOOK-ENTRY TRANSFER SYSTEM
The following information has been provided by DTC. The City makes no representation regarding the accuracy or
completeness thereof. Beneficial Owners should therefore confirm the following with DTC or the Direct
Participants(as hereinafier defined). Language in [brackets] with ~tri!:c tl:r~;;gh has been deleted as permitted by
DTC as it does not pertain to the Bonds.
1. The Depository. Trust Company ("DTC"), New York, NY, will act as securities depository for the
securities (the "Securities"). The Securities will be issued as fully-registered securities registered in the name of
Cede & Co. (DTC’s partnership nominee) or such other name as may be requested by an authorized representative
of DTC. One fully-registered Security certificate will be issued for [each ~o’~.-’e e~ the Securities, [eae~] in the
aggregate principal amount of such issue, and will be deposited with DTC. [!f, ~"
2. DTC, the word’s largest securities depository, is a limited-purpose trust company organized under
the New York Banking Law, a "banking organization" within the meaning of the New York Banking Law, a
member of the Federal Reserve System, a "clearing corporation" within the meaning of the New York Uniform
Commercial Code, and a "clearing agency" registered pursuant to the provisions of Section 17A of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934. DTC holds and provides asset servicing for over 3.5 million issues of U.S. and non-U.S.
equity issues, corporate and municipal debt issues, and money market instruments (from over 100 countries) that
DTC’s participants ("Direct Participants") deposit with DTC. DTC also facilitates the post-trade settlement among
Direct Participants of sales and other securities transactions in deposited securities, through electronic computerized
book-entry transfers and pledges between Direct Participants’ accounts. This eliminates the need for physical
movement of seeurities certificates. Direct Participants include both U.S. and non-U.S, securities brokers and
dealers, banks, trust companies, clearing corporations, and certain other organizations. DTC is a wholly-owned
subsidiary of The Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation ("DTCC’). DTCC is the holding company for DTC,
National Securities Clearing Corporation and Fixed Income Clearing Corporation, all of which are registered
cleating agencies. DTCC is owned by the users of its regulated subsidiaries. Access to the DTC system is also
available to others such as both U.S. and non-U.S, securities brokers and dealers, banks, trust companies, and
clearing corporations that clear through or maintain a custodial relationship with a Direct Participant, either directly
or indirectly ("Indirect Participants"). DTC has Standard & Poor’s rating of AA+. The DTC Rules applicable to its
Participants are on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission. More information about DTC can be found at
www.dtee.com.
3. Purchases of Securities under the DTC system must be made by or through Direct Participants,
whieh will receive a credit for the Securities on DTC’s records. The ownership interest of each actual purchaser of
each Security ("Beneficial Owner") is in turn to be recorded on the Direct and Indirect Participants’ records.
Beneficial Owners will not receive written confirmation from DTC of their purchase. Beneficial Owners are,
however, expected to receive written confirmations providing details of the transaction, as well as periodic
statements of their holdings, from the Direct or Indirect Participant through which the Beneficial Owner entered into
the transaction. Transfers of ownership interests in the Securities are to be accomplished by entries made on the
books of Direct and Indirect Participants acting on behalf of Beneficial Owners. Beneficial Owners will not receive
certificates representing their ownership interests in Securities, except in the event that use of the book-entry system
for the Securities is discontinued.
4. To facilitate subsequent transfers, all Securities deposited by Direct Participants with DTC are
registered in the name of DTC’s partnership nominee, Cede & Co., or such other name as may be requested by an
authorized representative of DTC. The deposit of Securities with DTC and their registration in the name of Cede &
Co. or such other DTC nominee do not effect any change in beneficial ownership. DTC has no knowledge of the
actual Beneficial Owners of the Securities; DTC’s records reflect only the identity of the Direct Participants to
whose accounts such Securities are credited, which may or may not be the Beneficial Owners. The Direct and
Indirect Participants will remain responsible for keeping account of their holdings on behalf of their customers.
E-1
5. Conveyance of notices and other communications by DTC to Direct Participants, by Direct
Participants to Indirect Participants, and by Direct Participants and Indirect Participants to Beneficial Owners will be
governed by arrangements among them, subject to any statutory or regulatory requirements as may be in effect from
time to time. [Beneficial Owners of Securities may wish to take certain steps to augment the transmission to them of
notices of significant events with respect to the Securities, such as redemptions, tenders, defaults, and proposed
amendments to the Security documents. For example, Beneficial Owners of Securities may wish to ascertain that the
nominee holding the Securities for their benefit has agreed to obtain and transmit notices to Beneficial Owners. In
the alternative, Beneficial Owners may wish to provide their names and addresses to the registrar and request that
copies of notices be provided directly to them.]
[6. Redemption notices shall be sent to DTC. If less than all of the Securities within an issue are being
redeemed, DTC’s practice is to determine by lot the amount of the interest of each Direct Participant in such issue to
be redeemed.]
7. Neither DTC nor Cede & Co. (nor any other DTC nominee) will consent or vote with respect to
Securities unless authorized by a Direct Participant in accordance with DTC’s MMI Procedures. Under its usual
procedures, DTC mails an Omnibus Proxy to Issuer as soon as possible after the record date. The Omnibus Proxy
assigns Cede & Co.’s consenting or voting rights to those Direct Participants to whose accounts Securities are
credited on the record date (identified in a listing attached to the Omnibus Proxy).
8. Redemption proceeds, distributions, and dividend payments on the Securities will be made to Cede
& Co., or such other nominee as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC. DTC’s practice is to
credit Direct Participants’ accounts upon DTC’s receipt of funds and corresponding detail information from Issuer
or Agent, on payable date in accordance with their respective holdings shown on DTC’s records. Payments by
Participants to Beneficial Owners will be governed by standing instructions and customary practices, as is the case
with securities held for the accounts of customers in bearer form or registered in "street name," and will be the
responsibility of such Participant and not of DTC, Agent, or Issuer, subject to any statutory or regulatory
requirements as may be in effect from time to tune. Payment of redemption proceeds, distributions, and dividend
payments to Cede & Co. (or such other nominee as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC) is the
responsibility of Issuer or Agent, disbursement of such payments to Direct Participants will be the responsibility of
DTC, and disbursement of such payments to the Beneficial Owners will be the responsibility of Direct and Indirect
Participants.
10. DTC may discontinue providing its services as depository with respect to the Securities at any time
by giving reasonable notice to Issuer or Agent. Under such circumstances, in the event that a successor depository is
not obtained, Security certificates are required to be printed and delivered.
11. Issuer may decide to discontinue use of the system of book-entry-only transfers through DTC (or a
successor securities depository). In that event, Security certificates will be printed and delivered to DTC.
12. The information in this section concerning DTC and DTC’s book-entry system has been obtained
from sources that Issuer believes to be reliable, but Issuer takes no responsibility for the accuracy thereof.

Re:US$8,700,000 City of Renton, Washington, Water & Sewer Revenue Refunding Bonds,
Series 2012
Dear Ms. Wang:
Pursuant to your request for a Standard & Poor’s rating on the above-referenced issuer, we have
reviewed the information submitted to us and, subject to the enclosed Terms and Conditions, have
assigned a rating of "AA+". Standard & Poor’s views the outlook for this rating as stable. A copy
of the rationale supporting the rating is enclosed.
The rating is not investment, financial, or other advice and you should not and cannot rely upon
the rating as such. The rating is based on information supplied to us by you or by your agents but
does not represent an audit. We undertake no duty of due diligence or independent verification of
any information. The assignment of a rating does not create a fiduciary relationship between us
and you or between us and other recipients of the rating. We have not consented to and will not
consent to being named an "expert" under the applicable securities laws, including without
limitation, Section 7 of the Securities Act of 1933. The rating is not a "market rating" nor is it a
recommendation to buy, hold, or sell the obligations.
This letter constitutes Standard & Poor’s permission to you to disseminate the above-assigned
rating to interested parties. Standard & Poor’s reserves the right to inform its own clients,
subscribers, and the public of the rating.
Standard & Poor’s relies on the issuer/obligor and its counsel, accountants, and other experts for
the accuracy and completeness of the information submitted in connection with the rating. This
rating is based on financial information and documents we received prior to the issuance of this
letter. Standard & Poor’s assumes that the documents you have provided to us are final. If any
subsequent changes were made in the final documents, you must notify us of such changes by
sending us the revised final documents with the changes clearly marked.
To maintain the rating, Standard & Poor’s must receive all relevant financial information as soon
as such information is available. Placing us on a distribution list for this information would
Page 1 2
facilitate the process. You must promptly notify us of all material changes in the financial
information and the documents. Standard & Poor’s may change, suspend, withdraw, or place on
CreditWatch the rating as a result of changes in, or unavailability of, such information. Standard &
Poor’s reserves the right to request additional information if necessary to maintain the rating.

Terms and Conditions Applicable To Public Finance Ratings
You understand and agree that:
General. The ratings and other views of Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services ("Ratings Services") are statements of
opinion and not statements of fact. A rating is not a recommendation to purchase, hold, or sell any securities nor does it
comment on market price, marketability, investor preference or suitability of any security. While Ratings Services
bases its ratings and other views on information provided by issuers and their agents and advisors, and other
information from sources it believes to be reliable, Ratings Services does not perform an audit, and undertakes no duty
of due diligence or independent verification, of any information it receives. Such information and Ratings Services’
opinions should not be relied upon in making any investment decision. Ratings Services does not act as a "fiduciary"
or an investment advisor. Ratings Services neither recommends nor will recommend how an issuer can or should
achieve a particular rating outcome nor provides or will provide consulting, advisory, fmancial or structuring advice.
All Rating Actions in Ratings Services’ Sole Discretion. Ratings Services may assign, raise, lower, suspend, place on
CreditWatch, or withdraw a rating, and assign or revise an Outlook, at any time, in Ratings Services’ sole discretion.
Ratings Services may take any of the foregoing actions notwithstanding any request for a confidential or private rating or
a withdrawal of a rating, or termination of this Agreement. Ratings Services will not convert a public rating to a
confidential or private rating, or a private rating to a confidential rating.
Publication. Ratings Services reserves the right to use, publish, disseminate, or license others to use, publish or
disseminate the rating provided hereunder and any analytical reports, including the rationale for the rating, unless you
specifically request in connection with the initial rating that the rating be assigned and maintained on a confidential or
private basis. If, however, a confidential or private rating or the existence of a confidential or private rating
subsequently becomes public through disclosure other than by an act of Ratings Services or its affiliates, Ratings
Services reserves the right to treat the rating as a public rating, including, without limitation, publishing the rating and
any related analytical reports. Any analytical reports published by Ratings Services are not issued by or on behalf of you
or at your request. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Ratings Services reserves the right to use, publish,
disseminate or license others to use, publish or disseminate analytical reports with respect to public ratings that have been
withdrawn, regardless of the reason for such withdrawal. Ratings Services may publish explanations of Ratings Services’
ratings criteria from time to time and nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as limiting Ratings Services’ ability
to modify or refine its ratings criteria at any time as Ratings Services deems appropriate.
Information to be Provided by You. For so long as this Agreement is in effect, in connection with the rating provided
hereunder, you warrant that you will provide, or cause to be provided, as promptly as practicable, to Ratings Services

(i) is true, accurate and complete in all material respects and, in light of the circumstances in which it was provided, not
misleading and (ii) does not infringe or violate the intellectual property rights of a third party. A material breach of the

information that you or your agents or advisors have provided to Ratings Services and, in a specific and particularized
manner, have marked or otherwise indicated in writing (either prior to or promptly following such disclosure) that such

derived from Confidential Information. With respect to structured finance ratings not maintained on a confidential or
private basis, Ratings Services may publish data aggregated from Confidential Information, excluding data that is specific
to and identifies individual debtors ("Relevant Data"), and share such Confidential Information with any of its Relevant
Affiliates and Agents for general market dissemination of Relevant Data; you confirm that, to the best of your knowledge,
such publication would not breach any confidentiality obligations you may have toward third parties. Ratings Services
will comply with all applicable U.S. and state laws, rules and regulations protecting personally-identifiable information
and the privacy rights of individuals. Ratings Services acknowledges that you may be entitled to seek specific
performance and injunctive or other equitable relief as a remedy for Ratings Services’ disclosure of Confidential
Information in violation of this Agreement. Ratings Services and its affiliates reserve the right to use, publish,

and similar investment vehicles. Ratings Services may permit CDO managers to use and disseminate credit estimates or

Summary:
Renton, Washington; Water/Sewer
Many issues are enhanced by bond insurance.
Rationale
Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services has assigned its ’AA+’ long-term rating to Renton, Wash.’s series 2012 water and
sewer revenue bonds. At the same time, Standard & Poor’s affirmed its ’AA+’ rating on Renton’s water and sewer
revenue bonds outstanding. The outlook is stable.
The city is issuing the bonds to refund its series 2004 bonds.
The ratings reflect our view of the waterworks system’s:
¯Strong historical debt service coverage (DSC) and liquidity, which we expect to continue;
¯Planned rate increases from 2013-2016 to support operational and capital needs;
¯Independent water source, providing a measure of cost control; and
¯Participation in a broad and deep regional economy, anchored by the Seattle (general obligation rating:
AAA/Stable) metropolitan area.
Our view of the system’s moderate capital spending needs in the next five years, which we expect will limit the growth
of cash reserves provided by rate increases, offsets these strengths.
A net revenue pledge of the city’s waterworks system secures the bonds, which includes water, sewer and storm
drainage. Bond provisions are within the standard range for a net revenue pledge of this type, and include a 1.25x
maximum annual debt service (MADS) additional bonds test and a 1.25x MADS rate covenant. Bond provisions also
include a debt service reserve fund funded at MADS.
Renton, with a population of about 94,000, is in King County, at the southern end of Lake Washington, 20 miles
southeast of Seattle and 60 miles northeast of Olympia (AA/Stable). The city’s effective buying income, in our view, is
good per median household, at 109% of the national average; and strong per capita at 119% of the national average.
Renton’s largest employer is The Boeing Co., with about 13,000 employees in the city; the company has an estimated
workforce of 76,000 based in the region. The unemployment rate was 6.5% in August 2012, compared with a statewide
rate of 8.5% and a national rate of 8.2%.
Water supply is sufficient, given the mix of supply from Renton’s own wells, supply interties with Seattle Public

Summary: Renton, Washington; Water/Sewer
Utilities, and additional emergency interties with surrounding cities. In 2011, the city’s average daily demand was 6.8
million gallons per day (mgd), with a peak demand of 12.5 mgd, compared with the city’s total production of 28.0 mgd.
Through various interties, including Seattle, the city has access to an additional 19.1 mgd. In 2011, Renton entered a
50-year supply agreement with Seattle that it projects to be sufficient for all growth during the contract’s term. The
leading 10 water customers represented 13% of total revenues in 2011, which we consider diverse.
King County provides wastewater services to the city through a contract that expires in 2056; officials pass cost
increases on to city customers. Average daily sewer flow is about 6 mgd with peak flow of about 8 mgd; the county
does not limit the amount of flow from Renton. We believe that the wastewater system is likewise diverse, because the
leading 10 customers, represented a diverse 9% of total revenues in 2011.
The typical residential water consumer pays an approximate combined $117 per 1,000 cubic feet monthly: $42.91 for
water service, $62.34 for wastewater service (including$37.26 to metro), and $11.51 for storm water service, with the
last two being flat rate. Water, sewer, and storm rates increased in 2011 18%, 42%, and 40%, respectively, and further
in 2012 by 16%, 5%, and 11%, respectively. The city is expecting annual 5%-6% rate increases on each system for
2013-2016.
Annual DSC by the system has been consistently strong, in our view, during the past five years and well above
Renton’s policy of maintaining 1.25x to 1.50x coverage. Senior-lien DSC has been above 2.00x in the past five years
and was 3.93x in 2011, with coverage of senior- and subordinate-lien (public works trust fund loan) debt at 3.07x.
Management estimates senior-lien DSC to rise to 5.5x in 2012, with combined coverage rising to 3.6x given the
substantial rate increases. We believe the waterworks system’s cash position has been strong historically; it was $14.6
million, or 185 days, in 2011. The city projects a similar range for 2012, but for it to increase to nearly $20 million by
the end of 2013, again based on rate increases. However, due to capital spending, it is unclear to what extent the
system will maintain this higher figure, because management often has a practice of building cash in advance of major
capital expenditures. Nevertheless, we expect the cash position to remain what we consider to be strong overall.
Renton’s planned waterworks capital projects during fiscal years 2013-2018 totals about $73 million for all three
systems combined, with $26 million in water projects, $20 million in wastewater spending, and $28 million in storm
water costs. Management expects no additional bond issuance, funding the capital improvement plan instead from a
combination of grants and rates.
Outlook
The stable outlook reflects our expectation that Renton’s waterworks system will continue to generate net revenues
well above its DSC requirement. In addition, we do not expect a significant change from the city’s practice of making
regular rate increases as it deems necessary and using a combination of revenues, reserves, and revenue bonds to
support capital projects, allowing management to maintain what we view as sound liquidity. We do not expect to raise
or lower the rating during the next two years given capital spending plans.

The titles and headings of the articles and sections of this Agreement have been inserted
for convenience and reference only and are not to be considered a part hereof and shall not in any
way modify or restrict the terms hereof. This Agreement and all of the terms and provisions
hereof shall be liberally construed to effectuate the purposes set forth herein and to achieve the
intended purpose of providing for the refunding of the Refunded Bonds in accordance with
applicable law.
Article 2. Deposit of Funds and Escrowed Securities
Section 2.1. Deposits in the Escrow Fund.
Concurrently with the sale and delivery of the Bonds, the City shall deposit, or cause to
be deposited, with the Escrow Agent, for deposit in the Escrow Fund (as defined below), the

the Escrowed Securities and pay costs of issuance described in Exhibit D, and the Escrow Agent
shall, upon the receipt thereof, acknowledge such receipt to the City in writing.
Article 3. Creation and Operation of Escrow Fund
Section 3.1. Escrow Fund.
The Escrow Agent has created on its books a special trust fund and irrevocable escrow
account to be known as the Refunding Account (the "Escrow Fund"). The Escrow Agent hereby
agrees that upon receipt thereof it will deposit to the credit of the Escrow Fund the funds and the
Escrowed Securities described in Exhibit D attached hereto. Such deposit, all proceeds
therefrom, and all cash balances from time to time on deposit therein (a) shall be the property of
the Escrow Fund, (b) shall be applied only in strict conformity with the terms and conditions of
this Agreement, and (c) are hereby irrevocably pledged to the payment of the principal of and
interest on the Refunded Bonds as set forth in Ordinance No. 5098 adopted by the City Council
of the City on November 1, 2004 (the "Refunded Bond Ordinance"), which payment shall be

such redemption dates in the amounts and at the times shown in Exhibit C attached hereto.
Section 3.3. Sufficiency of Escrow Fund.
The City represents that, based upon the information provided in the Verification Report,
the successive receipts of the principal of and interest on the Escrowed Securities will assure that
the cash balance on deposit from time to time in the Escrow Fund will be at all times sufficient to
provide moneys for transfer to the Paying Agent at the times and in the amounts required to pay
the interest on the Refunded Bonds as such interest comes due and the principal of the Refunded
Bonds as the Refunded Bonds are paid on an optional redemption date prior to maturity, all as
more fully set forth in Exhibit E attached hereto and as required for the legal defeasance of the
Refunded Bonds under the terms of the Refunded Bond Ordinance. If, for any reason, at any
time, the cash balances on deposit or scheduled to be on deposit in the Escrow Fund shall be
3
insufficient to transfer the amounts required by the Paying Agent to make the payments set forth
in Section 3.2. hereof, the City shall timely deposit in the Escrow Fund, from any funds that are
lawfully available therefor, additional funds in the amounts required to make such payments.
Notice of any such insufficiency shall be given promptly as hereinafter provided, but the Escrow
Agent shall not in any manner be responsible for any insufficiency of funds in the Escrow Fund
or the City’s failure to make additional deposits thereto.

The Escrow Agent or its affiliate, shall hold at all times the Escrow Fund, the Escrowed
Securities and all other assets of the Escrow Fund, wholly segregated from all other funds and
securities on deposit with the Escrow Agent; it shall never allow the Escrowed Securities or any
other assets of the Escrow Fund to be commingled with any other funds or securities of the
Escrow Agent; and it shall hold and dispose of the assets of the Escrow Fund only as set forth
herein. The Escrowed Securities and other assets of the Escrow Fund shall always be maintained
by the Escrow Agent as trust funds for the benefit of the owners of the Refunded Bonds; and a
special account thereof shall at all times be maintained on the books of the Escrow Agent. The
owners of the Refunded Bonds shall be entitled to the same preferred claim and first lien upon
the Escrowed Securities, the proceeds thereof, and all other assets of the Escrow Fund to which
they are entitled as owners of the Refunded Bonds as set forth in the Refunded Bond Ordinance.
The amounts received by the Escrow Agent under this Agreement shall not be considered as a
banking deposit by the City, and the Escrow Agent shall have no right to title with respect
thereto except as a trustee and Escrow Agent under the terms of this Agreement. The amounts
received by the Escrow Agent under this Agreement shall not be subject to wan’ants, drafts or
checks drawn by the City or, except to the extent expressly herein provided, by the Paying
Agent.
Article 4. Limitation on Investments
Section 4.1. Investments.
Except for the initial investment in the Escrowed Securities the Escrow Agent shall not
have any power or duty to invest or reinvest any money held hereunder, or to make substitutions

Article 5. Application of Cash Balances
Section 5.1. In General.
Except as provided in Section 2.1, 3.2 and 4.2 hereof, no withdrawals, transfers or
reinvestment shall be made of cash balances in the Escrow Fund. Cash balances shall be held by

of the Escrow Agent and, except as provided herein, shall not be reinvested by the Escrow
Agent; provided, however, a conversion to currency shall not be required (i) for so long as the
Escrow Agent’s internal rate of return does not exceed 20%, or (ii) if the Escrow Agent’s
internal rate of return exceeds 20%, the Escrow Agent receives a letter of instructions,
accompanied by the opinion of nationally recognized bond counsel, approving the assumed
reinvestment of such proceeds at such higher yield.
Article 6. Redemption of Refunded Bonds
Section 6.1. Call for Redemption.
The City hereby irrevocably calls the Refunded Bonds for redemption on their earliest
redemption dates, as shown in the Verification Report and on Appendix A attached hereto.
Section 6.2. Notice of Redemption/Notice of Defeasance.

the Refunded Bonds pursuant to the terms of the Refunded Bonds and in substantially the forms
attached hereto as Appendices A and B attached hereto and as described on said Appendices A
and B to the Paying Agent for distribution as described therein. The notice of defeasance shall
be given immediately following the execution of this Agreement, and the notice of redemption
shall be given in accordance with the ordinance authorizing the Refunded Bonds. The Escrow
Agent hereby certifies that provision satisfactory and acceptable to the Escrow Agent has been
made for the giving of notice of redemption of the Refunded Bonds.
Article 7. Records and Reports
Section 7.1. Records.
The Escrow Agent will keep books of record and account in which complete and accurate
entries shall be made of all transactions relating to the receipts, disbursements, allocations and
application of the money and Escrowed Securities deposited to the Escrow Fund and all proceeds

reasonable notice by the parties hereto and by the owners of the Refunded Bonds.

send to the City a written report summarizing all transactions relating to the Escrow Fund during
the preceding financial month, including, without limitation, credits to the Escrow Fund as a

Escrow Fund for payments on the Refunded Bonds or otherwise, together with a detailed
statement of all Escrowed Securities and the cash balance on deposit in the Escrow Fund as of
the end of such period.
Article 8. Concerning the Paying Agents and Escrow Agent
Section 8.1. Representations.
The Escrow Agent hereby represents that it has all necessary power and authority to enter
into this Agreement and undertake the obligations and responsibilities imposed upon it herein,
and that it will carry out all of its obligations hereunder.
Section 8.2. Limitation on Liability.
The liability of the Escrow Agent to transfer funds for the payment of the principal of and
interest on the Refunded Bonds shall be limited to the proceeds of the Escrowed Securities and
the cash balances from time to time on deposit in the Escrow Fund. Notwithstanding any
provision contained herein to the contrary, the Escrow Agent shall have no liability whatsoever
for the insufficiency of funds from time to time in the Escrow Fund or any failure of the obligors
of the Escrowed Securities to make timely payment thereon, except for the obligation to notify
the City promptly of any such occurrence.
The recitals herein and in the proceedings authorizing the Bonds shall be taken as the
statements of the City and shall not be considered as made by, or imposing any obligation or
liability upon, the Escrow Agent.
The Escrow Agent is not a party to the proceedings authorizing the Bonds or the
Refunded Bonds and is not responsible for nor bound by any of the provisions thereof. In its
capacity as Escrow Agent, it is agreed that the Escrow Agent need look only to the terms and
provisions of this Agreement.
The Escrow Agent makes no representations as to the value, conditions or sufficiency of
the Escrow Fund, or any part thereof, or as to the title of the City thereto, or as to the security
afforded thereby or hereby, and the Escrow Agent shall not incur any liability or responsibility in
respect to any of such matters.
It is the intention of the parties hereto that the Escrow Agent shall never be required to
use or advance its own funds or otherwise incur personal financial liability in the performance of
any of its duties or the exercise of any of its rights and powers hereunder.
6
The Escrow Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or neglected to be taken by it in
good faith in any exercise of reasonable care and believed by it to be within the discretion or
power conferred upon it by this Agreement, nor shall the Escrow Agent be responsible for the
consequences of any error of judgment; and the Escrow Agent shall not be answerable except for
its own neglect or willful misconduct, nor for any loss unless the same shall have been through
its negligence or bad faith.
Unless it is specifically otherwise provided herein, the Escrow Agent has no duty to
determine or inquire into the happening or occurrence of any event or contingency or the
performance or failure of performance of the City with respect to arrangements or contracts with
others, with the Escrow Agent’s sole duty hereunder being to safeguard the Escrow Fund, to
dispose of and deliver the same in accordance with this Agreement. If, however, the Escrow
Agent is called upon by the terms of this Agreement to determine the occurrence of any event or
contingency, the Escrow Agent shall be obligated, in making such determination, only to
exercise reasonable care and diligence, and in event of error in making such determination the
Escrow Agent shall be liable only for its own willful misconduct or its negligence. In
determining the occurrence of any such event or contingency the Escrow Agent may request
from the City or any other person such reasonable additional evidence as the Escrow Agent in its
discretion may deem necessary to determine any fact relating to the occurrence of such event or
contingency, and in this connection may make inquiries of, and consult with, among others, the
City at any time.
Section 8.3. Compensation.
The City shall pay to the Escrow Agent fees for performing the services hereunder and
for the expenses incurred or to be incurred by the Escrow Agent in the administration of this
Agreement pursuant to the terms of the Fee Schedule dated as of December 7, 2012. The
Escrow Agent hereby agrees that in no event shall it ever assert any claim or lien against the
Escrow Fund for any fees for its services, whether regular or extraordinary, as Escrow Agent, or
in any other capacity, or for reimbursement for any of its expenses as Escrow Agent or in any
other capacity.

Water and Sewer Revenue Refunding Bonds, 2012
Dated December 7, 2012
We have performed the procedures described in this report, which were agreed to by the City
of Renton, Washington (the "City") and Seattle-Northwest Securities Corporation (the
"Underwriter"), to verify the mathematical accuracy of certain computations contained in the
schedules attached in Appendix I provided by the Underwriter. The Underwriter is responsible
for these schedules. These procedures were performed solely to assist you in the issuance of
the above-captioned bond issue (the "Bonds") for the purpose of refunding a portion of the
City’s outstanding Water and Sewer Revenue Bonds, 2004 (the "Refunded Bonds") as
summarized on the next page. This agreed-upon procedures engagement was ,conducted in
accordance with attestation standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public
Accountants. The sufficiency of these procedures is solely the responsibility of the addressees
of this report who are the specified parties. Consequently, we make no representation
regarding the sufficiency of the procedures described in this report either for the purpose for
which this report has been requested or for any other purpose.

VERIFICATION OF ESCROW ACCOUNT CASH FLOW SUFFICIENCY
The Underwriter provided us with schedules (Appendix I) summarizing future escrow account
cash receipts and disbursements. These schedules indicate that there will be sufficient cash
available in the escrow account to pay the principal and interest on the Refunded Bonds
assuming the Refunded Bonds will be redeemed on December 1, 2014 at 100 percent of par
plus accrued interest.
The attached Exhibit A (Schedule of Sources and Uses of Funds) was compiled based upon
information provided by the Underwriter.
As part of our engagement to recalculate the schedules attached as Appendix I we prepared
schedules attached hereto as Exhibits B through B-2 independently calculating future escrow
account cash receipts and disbursements and compared the information used in our
calculations to the information listed below contained in applicable pages of the following
documents:
Subscription confu’mation, dated November 7, 2012, and Schedule of U.S. Treasury
Securities provided by the Underwriter used to acquire certain United States Treasury
Securities - State and Local Government Series (the "SLGS’) insofar as the SLGS are
described as to the principal amounts, interest rates, maturity dates, issuance date and
ftrst interest payment date; and
Offidal Statement and Ordinance for the Refunded Bonds provided by the
Underwriter insofar as the Refunded Bonds are described as to the maturity and
interest payment dates, principal amounts, interest rates and optional redemption date
and price. The principal amount of the December 1, 2018 sinking fund redemption
amount of the December 1, 2024 term bond represents a portion of the principal
amount outstanding as provided by the Underwriter.
In addition, we compared the interest rates for each maturity of the SLGS, as shown on the
Schedule of U.S. Treasury Securities, with the maximum allowable interest rates shown on the
Department of Treasury, Bureau of Public Debt, SLGS Table for use on November 7, 2012
and found that the interest rates were equal to the maximum allowable interest rates for each
maturity.
Our procedures, as summarized in Exhibits B through B-2, prove the mathematical accuracy of
the schedules provided by the Underwriter summarizing future escrow account cash receipts
and disbursements. The schedules provided by the Underwriter and those prepared by us
reflect that the anticipated receipts from the SLGS, together with an initial cash deposit of
$1.50 to be deposited into the escrow account on December 7, 2012, will be sufficient to pay,
when due, the principal and interest related to the Refunded Bonds assuming the Refunded
Bonds will be redeemed on December 1, 2014 at 100 percent of par plus accrued interest.
Page 3
VERIFICATION OF YIELDS
The Underwriter provided us with schedules (Appendix I) which indicate that the yield on the
cash receipts from the SLGS is less than the yield on the Bonds. These schedules were
prepared based on the assumed settlement date of December 7, 2012 using a 360-day year with
interest compounded semi-annually. The term "yield", as used herein, means that yield which,
when used in computing the present value of all payments of principal and interest to be paid
or received on an obligation produces an amount equal to, in the case of the cash receipts from
the SLGS, the purchase price, and in the case of the Bonds, the issue price. In addition, we
found that the schedules provided by the Underwriter, which assume the redemption of the
December 1, 2023 through December 1, 2027 maturities identified on Exhibits C and C-1 at
par on December 1, 2022 plus accrued interest, correctly treat those Bonds as yield-to-call
Bonds as retired on the respective dates that for each Bond produces the lowest yield for the
issue that includes the Bonds. Those Bonds identified as yield-to-call Bonds on the attached
Exhibits C and C-1 are those Bonds that are subject to optional redemption and that are issued
at an issue price that exceeds the stated redemption price at maturity of such Bonds by more
than one-fourth of one percent multiplied by the product of the stated redemption price at
maturity of such Bonds and the number of complete years to the first optional redemption date
for the Bonds. We found that there are no other yield-to-call Bonds other than those identified
on the attached Exhibits C and C-1.
As part of our engagement to recalculate the schedules attached as Appendix I we prepared
schedules attached hereto as Exhibits B-1 and C independently calculating the yields on (i) the
cash receipts from the SLGS calculated on Exhibit B-l, and (ii) the Bonds using the Official
Statement provided by the Underwriter insofar as the Bonds are described as to the maturity
and interest payment dates, dated date, principal amounts, interest rates, optional redemption
date and price, and issue price to the public, The results of our calculations, based on the
aforementioned assumptions, are summarized below:
Yield Exhibit
¯Yield on the cash receipts from the SLGS
¯Yield on the Bonds
0.237690%B-1
1.978879%C
Our procedures, as summarized in Exhibits B-1 and C, prove the mathematical accuracy of the
schedules provided by the Underwriter summarizing the yields. The schedules provided by the
Underwriter and those prepared by us reflect that the yield on the cash receipts from th4 SLGS
is less than the yield on the Bonds.
In addition, we have prepared schedules not attached hereto, which indicate that the yield on
the cash receipts from the SLGS, assuming reinvestment of the cash balances in the escrow
account at an interest rate of 20%, is less than the yield on the Bonds.

We were not engaged to, and did not, perform an examination or a review in accordance with
attestation standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, the
objective of which would be the expression of an examination opinion or limited assurance on
the items referred to above. Accordingly we do not express such an opinion or limited
assurance. Had we performed additional procedures, other matters might have come to our
attention that would have been reported to you.
This report is intended solely for the information and use of those to whom this letter is

FEDERAL TAX CERTIFICATE
I, the undersigned officer of the City of Renton, Washington (the "City"), make this
certification for the benefit of all persons interested in the exclusion from gross income for
federal income tax purposes of the interest to be paid on the City’s Water and Sewer Revenue
Refunding Bonds, 2012 (the "Bonds"), which are being issued in the aggregate principal amount
of $9,190,000 and delivered simultaneously with the delivery of this certificate. I do hereby
certify as follows in good faith on the date of issue of the Bonds:
1. . Responsible Officer. I am the duly chosen, qualified and acting officer of the City
for the office shown below my signature; as such, I am familiar with the facts herein certified
and I am duly authorized to execute and deliver this certificate on behalf of the City. I am the
officer of the City charged, along with other officers of the City, with responsibility for issuing
the Bonds.
2. Code and Regulations. The Bonds are subject to the provisions of sections 141,
148, 149 and 150 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), and the
Treasury Regulations (the "Regulations") promulgated under sections 141,148, 149 and 150 of
the Code. These provisions of the Code and Regulations impose restrictions on the use of bond-
financed facilities and on the investment of bond proceeds. This certificate is being executed and
delivered pursuant to sections 1.141-1 through 1.141-15, 1.148-0 through 1.148-11, 1.149(b)-1,
1.149(d)-1, 1.149(g)-1, 1.150-1 and 1.150-2 of the Regulations.
3. Definitions. The capitalized terms used in this certificate (unless otherwise
defined) that are defined in Ordinance No. 5672, passed on October 15, 2012, authorizing the
issuance and sale of the Bonds (the "Bond Ordinance") shall for all purposes hereof have the
meanings therein specified. All terms defined in the Code or Regulations shall for all purposes
of this certificate have the same meanings as given to those terms in the Code and Regulations
unless the context clearly requires otherwise.
4. Reasonable Expectations. The facts and estimates that are set forth in this
certificate are accurate. The expectations that are set forth in this certificate are reasonable in
light of such facts and estimates. There are no other facts or estimates that would materially
change such expectations. The undersigned has to the extent necessary reviewed the
certifications set forth herein with other representatives of the City as to such accuracy and
reasonableness. The undersigned has also relied, to the extent appropriate, on representations set
forth in the certificate of Seattle-Northwest Securities Corporation (the "Underwriter"), attached
as Exhibit A to this certificate, on the certificate of Piper Jaffray & Co. (the "Financial
Advisor"), attached as Exhibit B to this certificate, and on the Verification Report delivered by
Grant Thornton LLP on the date hereof (the "Report"). The undersigned is aware of no fact,
estimate or circumstance that would create any doubt regarding the accuracy or reasonableness
of all or any portion of such documents.
5. Description of Governmental Purpose. The City is issuing the Bonds pursuant to
the Bond Ordinance (a) to provide funds that will be used to advance refund and defease a
portion of the City’s Water and Sewer Revenue Bonds, 2004 (the "2004 Bonds") that would
otherwise mature on December 1, 2024 and all of the 2004 Bonds that would otherwise mature
on December 1, 2025 through December 1, 2027, inclusive (collectively, the "Refunded
Bonds"), and (b) to pay the costs of issuance of the Bonds. The primary purpose of the
transaction undertaken in connection with the issuance of the Bonds is a bona fide governmental
purpose.
6.The Refunded Bonds.
(a) General. The Refunded Bonds were issued to provide funds (a) to pay a
portion of the cost to carry out the City’s system or plan for additions to and betterments and
extensions of the City’s combined water, sewer, wastewater and storm drainage systems (the
"Waterworks Utility"), (b) to make a deposit to the City’s Reserve Fund for any obligations of
the City issued on a parity of lien with the Refunded Bonds, and (c) to pay costs of issuance of
the Refunded Bonds. No portion of the purchase price of the Refunded Bonds represents a loan
made from the proceeds of another tax-exempt obligation. All of the original and investment
proceeds allocable to the Refunded Bonds have been expended. No portion of the proceeds of
the Refunded Bonds was used to pay the principal of, or interest on, any other issue of
governmental obligations.
(b) Bond Fund. The City has maintained a pooled debt service fund for the
Refunded Bonds (the "Bond Fund") and has on hand in such Bond Fund certain amounts that
will be used for the payment of debt service on the Refunded Bonds and other Outstanding
Parity Bonds of the Waterworks Utility or to secure such payment. The City has continued the
Bond Fund under the Bond Ordinance for purposes of the payment of debt service on the
Bonds, the Outstanding Parity Bonds and any Future Parity Bonds, as described in paragraph 14
below.
(c) Reserve Fund. The City has maintained a pooled reasonably required
reserve fund for the Refunded Bonds (the "Reserve Fund") and has on hand in such Reserve
Fund certain amounts that are pledged to the payment of debt service on the Refunded Bonds
and other Outstanding Parity Bonds of the Waterworks Utility in the event that amounts in the
Bond Fund are insufficient to make such payments. The City has continued the Reserve Fund
under the Bond Ordinance for purposes of securing the payment of debt service on the Bonds,
the Outstanding Parity Bonds and any Future Parity Bonds, as described in paragraph 14 below.
The Bonds are the first advance refunding of the Refunded Bonds.
7.Amount and Expenditure of Sale Proceeds of the Bonds.
(a) Amount of Sale Proceeds. The sale proceeds from the issuance of the
Bonds are $9,999,905.90, based on the amount set forth on Exhibit A hereto. Such amount
represents the stated redemption price at maturity of the Bonds of $9,190,000.00, plus original
issue premium of $809,905.90. No portion of the purchase price of any of the Bonds is
provided by the issuance of any other obligations of the City or any other governmental entity.
-2-
(b) Expenditure of Sale Proceeds. The sale proceeds of the Bonds and other
available funds will be expended as follows:
(i) The amount of $9,904,340.00 representing proceeds of the Bonds
will be deposited in the escrow fund established pursuant to the Escrow Agreement (the
"Escrow Fund") and used on the date hereof to purchase United States Treasury
Certificates of Indebtedness and Notes, State and Local Government Series (the
"Escrowed Securities"). The proceeds of the Escrowed Securities will be used as
described in the Report to pay the principal of, and interest and redemption premium, if
any, on the Refunded Bonds. No portion of the proceeds of the Bonds is expected to be
used to pay any interest on, or principal of, any issue of governmental obligations other
than the Bonds and the Refunded Bonds.
(ii) The amount of $42,274.00 will be allocated on the date of issuance
of the Bonds to the Underwfiter’s discount or compensation.
(iii) The amount of $57,600.00 will be disbursed to pay other costs of
issuance of the Bonds.
(iv) The amount of $1.50 will be deposited as the initial cash balance in
the Escrow Fund and disbursed on June 1, 2013, to pay debt service on the Refunded
Bonds.
(v) The amount of $1,590.40 (representing a rounding amount) will be
deposited in the Bond Fund and used to pay debt service on the Bonds.
8.Pre-Issuance Accrued Interest. The Bonds are dated as of the initial date of
delivery to the Underwriter, and the City will receive no pre-issuance accrued interest on the
Bonds.
9. Investment Proceeds. The best estimate of the City is that investment proceeds
resulting from the investment of any proceeds of the Bonds will be expended for one of the
purposes described in section 7 or for the payment of debt service on the Bonds.
10. Transferred Proceeds. There are no transferred proceeds with respect to the
Bonds because all of the proceeds of the Refunded Bonds have been expended prior to the date
on which proceeds of the Bonds are disbursed to pay principal of the Refunded Bonds.
11. No Replacement Proceeds. Other than amounts described in this certificate, there
are no amounts that have a sufficiently direct nexus to the Bonds or to the governmental
purposes of the Bonds to conclude that the amounts would have been used for that governmental
purpose if the proceeds of the Bonds were not used for that purpose. Specifically,
(a) No Sinking Funds. Other than to the extent described in this certificate,
there is no debt service fund, redemption fund, reserve fund, replacement fund, or similar fund
reasonably expected to be used directly or indirectly to pay principal or interest on the Bonds.
-3-
(b) No Pledged Funds. Other than amounts described in this certificate,
there is no amount that is directly or indirectly pledged to pay principal or interest on the
Bonds, or to a guarantor of part or all of the Bonds, such that such pledge provides reasonable
assurance that such amount will be available to pay principal or interest on the Bonds if the City
encounters financial difficulty. For purposes of this certification, an amount is treated as so
pledged if it is held under an agreement to maintain the amount at a particular level for the
direct or indirect benefit of the holders or the guarantor of the Bonds.
(c) No Other Replacement Proceeds. There are no other replacement
proceeds allocable to the Bonds because the City reasonably expects that the term of the Bonds
will not be longer than is reasonably necessary for the governmental purposes of the Bonds.
Furthermore, if the term of the Bonds is longer than is reasonably necessary for the
governmental purposes of the Bonds, the City does not reasonably expect to have available
amounts during the portion of such period that is longer than is reasonably necessary. The City
reasonably expects that the Bonds would be issued to achieve the governmental purpose of the
Bonds independent of any arbitrage benefit. The Bonds would have been issued if the interest
on the Bonds were included in gross income (assuming that the hypothetical taxable interest
rate would be the same as the actual tax-exempt interest rate).
(d) Weighted Average Economic Life. As set forth in Exhibit A, the
weighted average maturity of the Bonds does not exceed the remaining weighted average
maturity of the Refunded Bonds, both of which weighted average maturities have been
computed by the Underwriter, and the weighted average maturity of the Refunded Bonds is not
greater than 120 percent of the weighted average estimated economic life of the portion of the
projects financed by the Refunded Bonds (the "Projects"), determined in accordance with
section 147(b) of the Code. Such weighted average estimated economic life is determined in
accordance with the following assumptions: (i) the weighted average was determined by taking
into account the respective cost of each of the assets financed by the Refunded Bonds; (ii) the
reasonably expected economic life of an asset was determined as of the later of the date hereof
or the date on which such asset is expected to be placed in service (i.e., available for use for the
intended purposes of such asset); (iii) the economic lives used in making this determination are
not greater than the useful lives used for depreciation under section 167 of the Code prior to the
enactment of the current system of depreciation in effect under section 168 of the Code (i.e., the
"mid-point lives") under the asset depreciation range ("ADR") system of section 167(m) of the
Code, as set forth in Revenue Procedure 83-35, 1983-1 C.B. 745, where applicable, and the
"guideline lives" under Revenue Procedure 62-21, 1962-2 C.B. 418, in the case of structures;
and (iv) land or any interest therein has not been taken into account in determining the average
reasonably expected economic life of such Projects, unless 25 percent or more of the net
proceeds of the Bonds is to be used to finance land.
12. Yield on the Bonds. For the purposes of this certificate, the yield on the Bonds is
the discount rate that, when used in computing the present value as of the issue date of the
Bonds, of all unconditionally payable payments of principal, interest and fees for qualified
guarantees on the Bonds, produces an amount equal to the present value, using the same discount
rate, of the aggregate issue price of the Bonds as of the issue date. For purposes of determining
the yield on the Bonds, the issue price of the Bonds is the sum of the issue prices for each group
of substantially identical Bonds, plus pre-issuance accrued interest. For each group of
-4-
substantially identical Bonds, the issue price is the first price at which a substantial amount (i.e.,
ten percent) is sold to the public (excluding bond houses, brokers, or similar persons or
organizations acting in the capacity of underwriters and wholesalers). The issue price is based
upon the representations of the Underwriter set forth in Exhibit A hereto. No Underwriter’s
discount, issuance costs, or costs of carrying or repaying the Bonds is taken into account for
purposes of computing the yield on the Bonds.
The yield has been computed by treating the portion of the Bonds that are subject to
optional redemption and are issued at an issue price that exceeds the stated redemption price at
maturity by more than one-fourth of one percent multiplied by the product of the stated
redemption price at maturity and the number of complete years to the first optional redemption
date for the Bonds as redeemed at their stated redemption price on the optional redemption date
that would produce the lowest yield on the Bonds.
The yield with respect to the remaining portion of the Bonds subject to optional
redemption is computed by treating such Bonds as retired at the stated redemption price at the
final maturity date because (a) the City has no present intention to redeem prior to maturity the
Bonds that are subject to optional redemption; (b) no Bond is subject to optional redemption at
any time for a price less than the retirement price at final maturity plus accrued interest; (c) no
Bond is subject to optional redemption within five years of the issue date of the Bonds; (d) no
Bond subject to optional redemption is issued at an issue price that exceeds the stated redemption
price at maturity of such Bond by more than one-fourth of one percent multiplied by the product
of the state redemption price at maturity of such Bond and the number of complete years to the
first optional redemption date for such Bond; and (e) no Bond subject to optional redemption
bears interest at a rate that increases during the term of the Bond.
Based on the representation of the Underwriter, set forth in Exhibit A, the yield on the
Bonds, as calculated in the manner set forth above, is 1.978879 percent.
13.Temporary Periods and Yield Restriction.
(a)
not be invested.
Uninvested Amounts. The amount described in paragraphs 7(b)(iv) will
(b) Issuance Costs and Additional Proceeds. The amounts described in
paragraphs 7(b)(ii) and 7(b)(iii) will be disbursed within 13 months of the date hereof for costs
of issuing the Bonds or debt service on the Bonds; therefore, such amounts will be invested for
an allowable temporary period. To the extent any portion of the amounts described in
paragraphs 7(b)(ii) is not expended within 13 months, the City will take steps to restrict the
investment of such amounts to a yield which is not materially higher than the yield on the
Bonds.
(c) Refunding. The yield on the Escrowed Securities is computed using the
same compounding interval and financial conventions used to compute the yield on the Bonds.
The yield on the Escrowed Securities is the discount rate that, when used in computing the
present value as of the date the Escrowed Securities were first allocated to the Bonds of all
unconditionally payable receipts to be actually or constructively received from the Escrowed
-5-
Securities, produces an amount equal to the amounts to be actually or constructively paid for
the Escrowed Securities. The Escrowed Securities purchased with Bond proceeds are all yield-
restricted nonpurpose investments that are a single class of investments and that are treated as a
single investment because all of the Escrowed Securities are held in a refunding escrow as
described in paragraphs 7(b)(i) above. Such purchase price is equal to the price paid by the
City to the United States for the Escrowed Securities. As set forth in the Report, the yield on
the Escrowed Securities for the advanced refunded bonds is determined in this manner and is
0.237690 percent, a yield that is not higher than the yield on the Bonds.
Pursuant to section 1.148-9(g) of the Regulations, the City hereby elects to waive the 30
day temporary period available under section 1.148-9(d)(2)(i) of the Regulations.
14.Funds.
(a) Bond Fund. Pursuant to the Bond Ordinance, the City has confirmed the
debt service fund designated the Bond Fund, which will be used primarily to achieve a proper
matching of Net Revenues of the Waterworks Utility and debt service on the Bonds, within
each Bond Year. The Net Revenues are anticipated to be sufficient to pay debt service each
year on the Bonds. The Bond Fund will be depleted at least once each year except for a
reasonable carryover amount not to exceed the greater of (a) one year’s earnings on the Bond
Fund or (b)one-twelfth of annual debt service. The City reasonably expects that any such
revenues deposited in the Bond Fund will be disbursed within 13 months of the date of receipt
of such revenues by the City. Amounts on deposit in the Bond Fund may be invested at an
unrestricted yield for a 13-month temporary period beginning on the date such amount are
deposited into the Bond Fund. Any such amount not expended within such period will be
invested at a yield not "materially higher" than the yield on the Bonds, except as set forth in
paragraph 15 below.
(b) Reserve Fund. The Reserve Fund confirmed in the Bond Ordinance will
be used to secure payment of debt service on the Bonds and other Parity Bonds in the event that
the funds in the Bond Fund are insufficient. As of October 1, 2012, the City had $3,648,589 in
Qualified Insurance in the form of a surety policy (the "Surety Policy") from Financial
Guaranty ~surance Company ("FGIC") delivered in connection with the issuance of the City’s
water and sewer revenue bonds issued in 2007 and 2008. The City deposited $2,909,745.00
from available funds of the City into the Reserve Fund at the time of issuance of the Bonds.
Such amounts are sufficient to satisfy the Reserve Requirement on the date of issuance of the
Bonds ($2,909,745.00). No proceeds of the Bonds will be deposited into the Reserve Fund. To
the extent that the amount in deposit in the Reserve Fund in the aggregate exceeds the least of
(a) ten percent of the stated principal amount of the Bonds and the Parity Bonds (or sale
proceeds in the event that the amount of original issue discount exceeds two percent multiplied
by the stated redemption price at maturity of the Bonds or the applicable series of Parity
Bonds), (b)the maximum annual principal and interest requirements of the Bonds and the
Parity Bonds, and (c) 125 percent of average annual principal and interest requirements of the
Bonds and the Parity Bonds, the portion of the excess allocable to the Bonds will be invested in
obligations the yield on which is not in excess of the yield on the Bonds, except as set forth in
paragraph 15 below.
-6-
15. Minor Portion. All gross proceeds will be invested in accordance with
paragraphs 13 and 14 above. To the extent such amounts remain on hand following the periods
set forth in paragraphs 13 and 14 above or exceed the limits set forth in paragraph 14 above, the
City will invest such amounts at a restricted yield as set forth in such paragraphs; provided,
however, that a portion of such amounts, not to exceed in the aggregate the lesser of $100,000 or
five percent of the sale proceeds of the Bonds (the "Minor Portion"), may be invested at a yield
which is higher than the yield on the Bonds.
16. Issue. There are no other obligations that (a) are sold at substantially the same
time as the Bonds (i.e., within 15 days), (b) are sold pursuant to the same plan of financing with
the Bonds, and (c) will be paid out of substantially the same source of funds as the Bonds.
17. Compliance With Rebate Requirements. The City has covenanted in the Bond
Ordinance that it will take all necessary steps to comply with the requirement that rebatable
arbitrage earnings on the investment of the gross proceeds of the Bonds, if any, within the
meaning of section 148(f) of the Code be rebated to the federal government. Specifically, the
City will (a) maintain records regarding the investment of the gross proceeds of the Bonds as
may be required to calculate such rebatable arbitrage earnings separately from records of
amounts on deposit in the funds and accounts of the City which are allocable to other bond issues
of the City or moneys which do not represent gross proceeds of any bonds of the City,
(b) calculate at such intervals as may be required by applicable Regulations, the amount of
rebatable arbitrage earnings, if any, earned from the investment of the gross proceeds of the
Bonds and (c) pay, not less often than every fifth anniversary date of the delivery of the Bonds
and within 60 days following the final maturity of the Bonds, or on such other dates required or
permitted by applicable Regulations, all amounts required to be rebated to the federal
government. Further, the City will not indirectly pay any amount otherwise payable to the
federal government pursuant to the foregoing requirements to any person other than the federal
government by entering into any investment arrangement with respect to the gross proceeds of
the Bonds that might result in a reduction in the amount required to be paid to the federal
government because such arrangement results in a smaller profit or a larger loss than would have
resulted if the arrangement had been at arm’s-length and had the yield on the issue not been
relevant to either party. No rebate will be due with respect to the sale proceeds and investment
proceeds of the Bonds if all such proceeds are expended within 6 months of the date of issue of
the Bonds.
18. No Excess Gross Proceeds. Except for any earnings on the portion of the amount
described in paragraph 7(b)(iii) above, all gross proceeds of the Bonds will be expended for:
(a) the payment of principal, interest or call premium on the Refunded
Bonds as described in paragraph 7(b)(i) above;
(b)
7(b)(ii); and
the payment of underwriter’s compensation as described in paragraph
(c) the payment of costs of issuance as described in paragraph 7(b)(iii).
-7-
Investment earnings on the amount described in paragraph 7(b)(iii) are expected to be de
minimis; accordingly the excess gross proceeds of the Bonds will be less than one percent of the
original proceeds of the Refunded Bonds.
19.Not an Abusive Transaction.
(a) General. No action taken in connection with the issuance of the Bonds
will enable the City to (i) exploit, other than during an allowable temporary period, the
difference between tax-exempt and taxable interest rates to obtain a material financial
advantage (including as a result of an investment of any portion of the gross proceeds of the
Bonds over any period of time, notwithstanding that, in the aggregate, the gross proceeds of the
Bonds are not invested in higher yielding investments over the term of the Bonds), and (ii) issue
more bonds, issue bonds earlier, or allow bonds to remain outstanding longer than is otherwise
reasonably necessary to accomplish the governmental purposes of the Bonds. To the best of
our knowledge, no actions have been taken in connection with the issuance of the Bonds other
than actions that would have been taken to accomplish the governmental purposes of the Bonds
if the interest on the Bonds were not excludable from gross income for federal income tax
purposes (assuming the hypothetical taxable interest rate would be the same as the actual tax-
exempt interest rate on the Bonds).
(b) No Sinking Fund. No portion of the Bonds has a term that has been
lengthened primarily for the purpose of creating a sinking fund or similar fund with respect to
the Bonds.
20. No Arbitrage. On the basis of the foregoing facts, estimates and circumstances, it
is expected that the gross proceeds of the Bonds will not be used in a manner that would cause
any of the Bonds to be an "arbitrage bond" within the meaning of section 148 of the Code and
the Regulations. To the best of the knowledge and belief of the undersigned, there are no other
facts, estimates or circumstances that would materially change such expectations.
21.No Private Use, Payments or Loan Financing.
(a) General. The City reasonably expects, as of the date hereof, that no
action or event during the entire stated term of the Bonds will cause either the "private business
tests" or the "private loan financing test," as such terms are defined in the Regulations, to be
met. Specifically,
(i) Not more than 10 percent of the proceeds of the Bond will be used
and not more than 10 percent of the proceeds of the Refunded Bonds has been used in a
trade or business of a nongovernmental person. For purposes of determining use, the
City will apply rules set forth in applicable Regulations and Revenue Procedures
promulgated by the Internal Revenue Service, including, among others, the following
roles: (A) any activity carded on by a person other than a natural person or a state or
local governmental unit will be treated as a trade or business of a nongovernmental
person; (B) the use of all or any portion of the Projects refinanced by the Bonds is treated
as the direct use of proceeds; (C) a nongovernmental person will be treated as a private
business user of proceeds of the Bonds or the Refunded Bonds as a result of ownership,
-8-
actual or beneficial use pursuant to a lease, or a management or incentive payment
contract, or certain other arrangements such as a take-or-pay or other output-type
contract; and (D) the private business use test is met if a nongovernmental person has
special legal entitlements to use directly or indirectly the Projects.
(ii) The City has not taken and will not take any deliberate action that
would cause or permit the use of any portion of the Projects to change such that such
portion will be deemed to be used in the trade, or business of a nongovernmental person
for so long as any of the Bonds remains outstanding (or until an opinion of nationally
recognized bond counsel is received to the effect that such change in use will not
adversely affect the excludability from gross income for federal income tax purposes of
interest payable on the Bonds). For this purpose, any action within the control of the City
is treated as a deliberate action. A deliberate action occurs on the date the City enters
into a binding contract with a nongovernmental person for use of the Projects that is not
subject to any material contingencies.
(iii) Not more than 10% of the debt service on the Bonds will be
directly or indirectly derived from payments (whether or not to the City or any related
party) in respect of property, or borrowed money, used or to be used for a private
business use. Furthermore, not more than 10% of the debt service on the Bonds will be
directly or indirectly secured by any interest in property used or to be used for a private
business use or payments in respect of property used or to be used for a private business
use.
(iv) No portion of the proceeds of the Bonds will be directly or
indirectly used to make or finance a loan to any person other than a state or local
governmental unit.
(b) Dispositions of Personal Property in the Ordinary Course. The City does
not reasonably expect that it will sell or otherwise dispose of personal property components of
the Projects refinanced with the Bonds other than in the ordinary course of an established
governmental program that satisfies the following requirements:
(i) The weighted average maturity of the portion of the Bonds
financing personal property is not greater than 120 percent of the reasonably expected
actual use of such personal property for governmental purposes;
(ii) The reasonably expected fair market value of such personal
property on the date of disposition will be not greater than 25 percent of its cost;
(iii) Such personal property will no longer be suitable for its
governmental purposes on the date of disposition; and
(iv) The City is required to deposit amounts received from such
disposition in a commingled fund with substantial tax or other governmental revenues
and the City reasonably expects to spend such amounts on governmental programs within
6 months from the date of commingling.
-9-
Furthermore, the City will not sell or otherwise dispose of all or any portion of the
Projects in circumstances in which the foregoing requirements are not satisfied unless it has
received an opinion of nationally recognized bond counsel to the effect that such disposition will
not adversely affect the treatment of interest on the Bonds as excludable from gross income for
federal income tax purposes.
(c) Other Agreements. The City will not enter into any agreement with any
nongovernmental person regarding the use of all or any portion of the Projects during the stated
term of the Bonds unless such agreement will not adversely affect the treatment of interest on
the Bonds as excludable from gross income for federal income tax purposes.
22. Weighted Average Maturity. The weighted average maturity of the Bonds and of
the Refunded Bonds set forth on Exhibit A attached to this certificate is the sum of the products
of the issue price of each group of identical bonds of the respective issues and the number of
years to maturity (determined separately for each group of identical bonds of the respective
issues and taking into account mandatory redemptions), divided by the aggregate sale proceeds
of the respective issues.
23. Federal Guarantee Prohibition. The Bonds are not "federally guaranteed" and the
City will not cause or allow the Bonds to become "federally guaranteed". Unless otherwise
excepted under section 149(b) of the Code, the Bonds will be considered federally guaranteed if:
(a) The payment of principal or interest with respect to the Bonds is
guaranteed (in whole or in part) by the United States (or any agency or instrumentality thereof);
(b)5 percent or more of the proceeds of the Bonds are to be:
(i) used in making loans the payment of principal or interest with
respect to which are to be guaranteed (in whole or in part) by the United States (or any
agency or instrumentality thereof), or
(ii)
accounts; or
invested (directly or indirectly) in federally insured deposits or
(c) The payment of principal or interest on the Bonds is otherwise indirectly
guaranteed (in whole or in part) by the United States (or an agency or instrumentality thereof).
The Bonds shall not be treated as federally guaranteed by reason of (i) any guarantee by
the Federal Housing Administration, the Department of Veterans Affairs, the Federal National
Mortgage Association, the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation, or the Government
National Mortgage Association, (ii) any guarantee of student loans and any guarantee by the
Student Loan Marketing Association to finance student loans, (iii) any guarantee by the
Bonneville Power Authority pursuant to the Northwest Power Act as in effect on July 18, 1984,
or (iv) any guarantee by a Federal home loan bank described in Code section 149(b)(3)(E) that is
made in connection with the original issuance of bonds during the period beginning on July 8,
2008 and ending on December 31, 2010 (or a renewal or extension of a guarantee so made).
-10-
The federal guarantee prohibition shall not apply to (i) proceeds of the issue invested for
an initial temporary period until such proceeds are needed for the purpose for which such issue
was issued, (ii) investments of a bona fide debt service fund, (iii) investments of a reasonably
required reserve fund, (iv) investments in bonds issued by the United States Treasury, or
(v) other investments permitted under Regulations.
24. Bonds are not Hedge Bonds. Not more .than 50 percent of the proceeds of the
Refunded Bonds was invested in nonpurpose investments (as defined in section 148(f)(6)(A) of
the Code) having a substantially guaranteed yield.for four years or more within the meaning of
section 149(g)(3)(A)(ii) of the Code, and the City reasonably expected at the time the Refunded
Bonds were issued that at least 85 percent of the spendable proceeds of such issue would be used
to carry out the governmental purposes of such issue within the three-year period beginning on
the date of issue of the Refunded Bonds.

EXHIBIT A
CERTIFICATE OF UNDERWRITER
Seattle-Northwest Securities Corporation has acted as underwriter in connection with the
sale and delivery of the City of Renton, Washington (the "City") Water and Sewer Revenue
Refunding Bonds, 2012 (the "Bonds"). I, the undersigned, hereby certify as follows on behalf
of the Underwriter:
1. I am the duly chosen, qualified and acting officer of the Underwriter for the office
shown below my signature; as such, I am familiar with the facts herein certified and I am duly
authorized to execute and deliver this certificate on behalf of the Underwriter. I am the officer of
the Underwriter charged, along with other officers of the Underwriter, with responsibility for the
Bonds.
2. The Underwriter has purchased the Bonds from the City pursuant to a Bond
Purchase Agreement dated November 7, 2012 (the "Sale Date"), for an aggregate purchase price
of $9,957,631.90.
(A) Based on our records and other information available to us which we have
no reason to believe is not correct, on the date of Sale Date all of the Bonds were the
subject of a bona fide initial offering to the public at prices no higher than, or yields no
lower than, those shown on the inside cover of the Official Statement relating to the
Bonds (the "Official Statement").
(B) The issue prices set forth in the Official Statement were determined on the
date the Bonds were purchased by the Underwriter based on the reasonable expectations
regarding the initial public offering prices. Based on our records and other information
available to us which we have no reason to believe is not correct, on the Sale Date at least
10 percent of each maturity of the Bonds were sold to the public at initial offering prices
not greater than the respective prices shown on the cover of the Official Statement,
except for those Bonds maturing in each of the years 2013 and 2017 which as of the Sale
Date were purchased by dealers.
(C) On the Sale Date, based upon then prevailing market conditions we had no
reason to believe any of the Bonds would be initially sold to the public at prices greater
than the prices, or yields less than the yields, shown on the inside cover of the Official
Statement. The aggregate of such issue prices of all of the Bonds is $9,999,905.90. The
initial public offering prices described above do not exceed the fair market value for the
Bonds on the sale date.
The term "public," as used herein, does not include bondhouses, brokers, dealers, and
similar persons or organizations acting in the capacity of Underwriter or wholesalers.
A-1
3. The yield on the Bonds is not less than 1.978879 percent. For purposes of this
certificate, yield has been computed as described in paragraph 12 of the Federal Tax Certificate.
4. The weighted average maturity of the Bonds is 12.2205 years and the remaining
weighted average maturity of the Refunded Bonds is 12.5419 years. The weighted average
maturity was computed as described in paragraph 22 of the Federal Tax Certificate.
5. To the best of my knowledge, which was acquired in the course of structuring the
Bonds on behalf of the City, (i) the Bonds were not structured to take advantage of the difference
between tax exempt and taxable rates except as identified in the Federal Tax Certificate with
respect to permissible investments subject to arbitrage rebate, and (ii) the Bonds were not issued
earlier, in a greater amount, with reserves or sinking funds larger, or with a maturity longer than
was reasonably necessary to refinance the Projects.
The Underwriter hereby authorizes the City to rely on the statements made herein in
connection with making the representations set forth in the Federal Tax Certificate to which this
certificate is attached and in its efforts to comply with the conditions imposed by the Code on the
exclusion of interest on the Bonds from the gross income of their owners. The Underwriter
hereby authorizes Pacifica Law Group LLP to rely on this certificate for purposes of its opinion
regarding the treatment of interest on the Bonds as excludable from gross income for federal
income tax purposes. Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined have the meaning
ascribed to such terms in the Federal Tax Certificate to which this certificate is attached.

CERTIFICATE OF FINANCIAL ADVISOR
I, the undersigned officer of the Financial Advisor, make this certificate for the benefit of

in the Federal Tax Certificate to which this Exhibit B is attached (the "Federal Tax Certificate").
I hereby certify as follows as of the Issue Date:
1. I am the duly chosen, qualified and acting officer of the Financial Advisor for the

duly authorized to execute and deliver this certificate on behalf of the Financial Advisor. I am
the officer of the Financial Advisor who has worked with representatives of the City in
structuring the financial terms of the Bonds.
2. I have worked closely with representatives of the City in structuring the financial
terms of the Bonds. To the best of my knowledge, which was acquired in the course of
structuring the Bonds on behalf of the City, (i) the Bonds were not structured to take advantage
of the difference between tax exempt and taxable rates except as identified in the Federal Tax
Certificate with respect to permissible investments subject to arbitrage rebate, and (ii) the Bonds
were not issued earlier, in a greater amount, with reserves or sinking funds larger, or with a
maturity longer than was reasonably necessary to refinance the Project.
The City may rely on the statements made herein in connection with making the
representations set forth in the Certificate and in its efforts to comply with the conditions
imposed by the Code on the exclusion of interest on the Bonds from the gross income of their
owners. Pacifica Law Group LLP also may rely on this certificate for purposes of its opinion
regarding the treatment of interest on the Bonds as excludable from gross income for federal
income tax purposes.

City of Renton, Washington
Water and Sewer Revenue Refunding Bonds, 2012 -- $9,190,000
Ladies and Gentlemen:
We have acted as bond counsel to the City of Renton, Washington (the "City"), in
connection with the issuance of its Water and Sewer Revenue Refunding Bonds, 2012, in the
aggregate principal amount of $9,190,000 (the "Bonds"). The Bonds are being issued pursuant
to Ordinance No. 5672 of the City adopted on October 15, 2012 (the "Bond Ordinance"), to
refund certain water and sewer revenue bonds and to pay costs of issuance of the Bonds.
Capitalized terms used in this opinion have the meanings given such terms in the Bond
Ordinance.
In connection therewith, we have examined duly certified copies of certain proceedings
of the City Council relating to the authorization and issuance of the Bonds, including the Bond
Ordinance, the Preliminary Official Statement dated October 31, 2012, and the Official
Statement dated November 7, 2012, and such other documents as we deemed necessary to render
this opinion.
In our capacity as bond counsel, we also have examined originals or reproduced or
certified copies of all such other records, agreements, communications, certificates of officers
and other instruments of the City, as well as such certificates of public officials and other
documents as we have deemed relevant and necessary as a basis for the opinions set forth below.
In such examination, we have assumed the genuineness of all signatures, the authenticity
of all documents submitted to us as originals, and the conformity to original documents of all
documents submitted to us as certified or reproduced copies. As to various questions of fact and
material to such opinions, we have relied upon certificates of officers of the City and upon the
representations and warranties of the City set forth in the Bond Ordinance and related
documents.
City of Renton
December 7, 2012
Page 2
Based upon such examination, and subject to the qualifications and assumptions set forth
herein, it is our opinion that:
1. The Bonds are not subject to the registration requirements of the Securities Act of
1933, as amended, and the Bond Ordinance is exempt from qualification pursuant to the Trust
Indenture Act of 1939, as amended.
2. The statements contained in the Official Statement (except for information
regarding The Depository Trust Company and its book-entry only system) under the captions
"INTRODUCTION," "THE BONDS," "SECURITY AND SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR
THE BONDS," "CONTINUING DISCLOSURE UNDERTAKING," "TAX MATTERS" and in
"APPENDIX A - COPY OF THE BOND ORDINANCE," insofar as such statements purport to
summarize provisions of the Bonds, the Bond Ordinance and the continuing disclosure
undertaking set forth in the Bond Ordinance and to describe the treatment of interest on the
Bonds under Federal income tax laws, present a fair and accurate summary of such provisions.
3.We also have examined information made available to us in the course of our
participation in the preparation of the Preliminary Official Statement and the Official Statement
as Bond Counsel, including legal matters and certain records, documents and proceedings, and
we have participated in telephone conferences with, among others, representatives of the City’s
financial advisor and the City, at which conferences the contents of the Preliminary Official
Statement and the Official Statement were discussed; however, our examination of information
and participation in such conferences does not necessarily constitute such diligence as may be
specified, required or implied in Sections 12(b) and 17 of the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended, Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and similar
provisions under state securities or "blue sky" laws or regulations promulgated pursuant thereto,
to the extent such provisions and regulations may be applicable (and no opinion is expressed as
to such applicability). Without undertaking to determine independently or assuming any
responsibility for the accuracy, completeness or fairness of the statements contained in the
Official Statement, we have no reason to believe that the Official Statement as of its date or as of
this date contained or contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material
fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the
circumstances in which they were made, not misleading (except that we express no opinion or
belief with respect to any information relating to The Depository Trust Company and its book-
entry only system or financial, operating, accounting or statistical data contained in or
incorporated into the Official Statement or any information under the headings "FINANCIAL
ADVISOR" or "UNDERWRITING").
QUALIFICATIONS AND ASSUMPTIONS
The opinions expressed above are subject to the following qualifications and
assumptions:
bankruptcy,
All opinions are subject to qualification in respect of: (a) the effects of
insolvency, conservatorship, receivership, reorganization, an’angements,
City of Renton
December 7, 2012
Page 3
moratorium, fraudulent conveyance and transfer, forfeiture and other similar laws applicable to
or affecting creditors’ rights; and (b)the effects of principles of equity, including, without
limitation, concepts of materiality, reasonableness, good faith and fair dealing, and rules
governing specific performance, injunction relief, and other equitable remedies, regardless of
whether raised in a proceeding in equity, at law, or otherwise.
2. By stating that an agreement is enforceable in accordance with its terms, it is our
opinion that while enforceability of certain provisions, remedies, and waivers contained in such
agreement may be limited by applicable constitutional and other law, there exist legally adequate
remedies for the practical realization of the principal benefits intended to be provided thereby,
subject to the economic consequences of any delay which may result from such applicable
constitutional or other law.
3. Our opinions that agreements are enforceable in accordance with their terms are
subject to the context rule interpretation of contracts under the laws of the State of Washington.
Under such rule, even though terms of a contract may be unambiguous, courts will admit
extrinsic evidence to interpret the contract.
4. Without limiting other qualifications contained herein, we express no opinion
with respect to the enforceability of contractual provisions: (a) waiving broadly or vaguely
stated rights or unknown future rights; (b)waiving defenses or waiving rights conferred by
constitution or statute; (c) purporting to fix evidentiary standards; (d) allowing a third party to
take action as attorney-in-fact or otherwise for the City; (e) providing for a penalty or liquidated
damages; (f) allowing for severability of clauses or provisions; (g) stating that the determination
of a party shall be final, binding or conclusive; and (h)making ineffective oral waivers or
modifications.
5. We have assumed: (a) that each party to the Bond Ordinance and the Bond
Purchase Agreement (the "Transaction Documents"), other than the City, validly exists and has
and had all necessary legal and corporate authority to execute, deliver and perform the
Transaction Documents to which it is a party and the execution and performance of the
Transaction Documents and such other documents as may be executed in connection therewith
by such parties other than the City will not violate or breach any corporate or other document or
instrument to which such person is party or by which it is bound; and (b) the genuineness of all
signatures, the authenticity and completeness of all documents submitted to us as originals, the
legal competence of all natural persons who are signators thereto, and the conformity to original
documents of all documents submitted to us as copies.
6. Rights to indemnification may be limited by considerations of public policy, by
restrictions on municipal corporations, and by provisions of securities and other applicable laws.
7. We express no opinion as to matters to title, ownership, security interests or
priorities of security interest or liens with respect to the real property.
8. If the Transaction Documents were deemed by a Washington court not to qualify
as a "credit agreement" as defined at RCW 19.36.100 through .900, provisions of the Transaction
City of Renton
December 7, 2012
Page 4
Documents stating that prior or contemporaneous oral agreements are superseded by, merged
into and may not vary the Documents will not be enforceable under the laws of the State of
Washington.
9. When we use the phrase "to the best of our knowledge," we mean that nothing has
actually come to the attention of the attorneys serving as Bond Counsel and Disclosure Counsel
to the City during the course of our representation of the City in connection with the Transaction
Documents that is inconsistent with the statement so qualified, but we have not undertaken any
independent investigation with respect thereto.
10. We express no opinion with respect to any laws other than the laws of the State of
Washington and the laws of the United States (as interpreted in the Ninth Circuit if there is a split
among circuit courts of appeal). This opinion speaks only as of the date hereof and we assume
no obligation to update or supplement this opinion should such laws change by legislative action,
judicial decision or otherwise.
This opinion is solely for your benefit and may not be relied upon by, nor copies
delivered to, any other person (other than your legal and professional advisors, but only for
purposes of their representations of and advice to you in connection with the Transaction
Documents) without our prior written consent.
We consent to references to us contained in the Official Statement.

Water and Sewer Revenue Refunding Bonds, 2012 -- $9,190,000
Ladies and Gentlemen:
We are bond counsel to the City of Renton, Washington (the "City"), and have acted as
such in connection with the issuance and sale by the City of its Water and Sewer Revenue
Refunding Bonds, 2012, in the aggregate principal amount of $9,190,000 (the "Bonds"), issued
for the purpose of refunding certain outstanding bonds of the City (the "Refunded Bonds"). The
Bonds are issued pursuant to Ordinance No. 5672 passed by the City Council on October 15,
2012 (the "Bond Ordinance"). Capitalized terms used in this opinion which are not otherwise
defined shall have the meanings given to such terms in the Bond Ordinance.
A portion of the proceeds of the Bonds will be used by U.S. Bank National Association
(the "Escrow Agent"), to acquire certain noncallable U. S. Government Obligations ("Escrowed
Securities"), described in the Escrow Deposit Agreement, dated as of December 7, 2012,
between the City and the Escrow Agent (the "Escrow Agreement"), the proceeds of which shall
mature in amounts sufficient to pay to the date of maturity thereof all remaining outstanding
principal and interest on the Refunded Bonds. The sufficiency of such escrow and the Escrowed
Securities maintained pursuant to the Escrow Agreement has been verified by Grant
Thornton LLP. For purposes of the opinions rendered herein, we have relied, without
independent investigation, on the verification set forth therein and on the performance under the
terms of the Escrow Agreement by the Escrow Agent, respectively.

Based upon the foregoing, we are of the opinion that the Refunded Bonds have been
defeased and discharged in accordance with the ordinance authorizing their issuance, are deemed
paid and no longer outstanding and have no further claim of any kind or under any circumstances
to be paid from any funds or money of the City.

Re:City of Renton, Washington
Water and Sewer Revenue Refunding Bonds, 2012 -- $9,190,000
Ladies and Gentlemen:
We have acted as bond counsel to the City of Renton, Washington (the "City"), and have
examined a certified transcript of all of the proceedings taken in the matter of the issuance by the
City of its Water and Sewer Revenue Refunding Bonds, 2012, in the principal amount of
$9,190,000 (the "Bonds") issued pursuant to Ordinance No. 5672, passed by the Council on
October 15, 2012 (the "Bond Ordinance"), to refund certain water and sewer revenue bonds and
to pay costs of issuance of the Bonds. Capitalized terms used in this opinion have the meanings
given such terms in the Bond Ordinance.
The Bonds are subject to redemption prior to maturity as provided in the Bond Ordinance
and the Bond Purchase Contract.
Regarding questions of fact material to our opinion, we have relied on representations of
the City in the Bond Ordinance and in the certified proceedings and on other certifications of
public officials and others furnished to us without undertaking to verify the same by independent
investigation.
Based on the foregoing, we are of the opinion that, under existing law:
1. The Bonds have been legally issued and constitute valid and binding special
obligations of the City, both principal thereof and interest thereon payable solely out of special
funds of the City known as the Bond Fund and the Reserve Fund, except to the extent that the
enforcement of the rights and remedies of the holders of the Bonds may be limited by laws
relating to bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency, moratorium or other similar laws of general
application affecting the rights of creditors, by the application of equitable principles and the
exercise of judicial discretion.
2. The Bond Ordinance is a legal, valid and binding obligation of the City, has been
duly authorized, executed and delivered and is enforceable in accordance with its terms, except
to the extent that enforcement may be l~imited by laws relating to bankruptcy, insolvency,
moratorium, reorganization or other similar laws of general application affecting the rights of

3. The City has irrevocably bound itself to set aside and pay into said Bond Fund out
of Gross Revenue of the Waterworks Utility certain fixed amounts necessary to pay and secure
the payment of the principal of and interest on the Bonds as the same become due. The City has
further pledged that the payments to be made into the Bond Fund out of Gross Revenue of the
Waterworks Utility shall constitute a lien and charge upon such Gross Revenue superior to all
other charges of any kind or nature whatsoever, except for Maintenance and Operation Expense
of the Waterworks Utility, and equal in rank to the lien and charge on such Gross Revenue to pay
and secure the payment of the principal of and interest on the City’s Outstanding Parity Bonds
and any Future Parity Bonds that may be issued after this date on a parity with such bonds and
the Bonds. The City has reserved the right to issue Future Parity Bonds on the terms and
conditions set forth in the Bond Ordinance.
4. Interest on the Bonds is excludable from gross income for federal income tax
purposes under existing law and is not an item of tax preference for purposes of the federal
alternative minimum tax imposed on individuals and corporations; however, interest on the
Bonds is taken into account in determining adjusted current earnings for the purpose of
computing the alternative minimum tax imposed on certain corporations. The opinion set forth
in the preceding sentence is subject to the condition that the City comply with all requirements of
the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), that must be satisfied subsequent
to the issuance of the Bonds in order that the interest thereon be, and continue to be, excludable
from gross income for federal income tax purposes. The City has covenanted to comply with all
applicable requirements. Failure to comply with certain of such covenants may cause interest on
the Bonds to be included in gross income for federal income tax purposes retroactively to the
date of issuance of the Bonds.
The City has designated the Bonds as "qualified tax-exempt obligations" within the
meaning of Section 265(b)(3) of the Code.
Except as expressly stated above, we express no opinion regarding any other federal or
state ,income tax consequences of acquiring, carrying, owning or disposing of the Bonds.
Owners of the Bonds should consult their tax advisors regarding the applicability of any
collateral tax consequences of owning the Bonds, which may include original issue discount,
original issue premium, purchase at a market discount or at a premium, taxation upon sale,
redemption or other disposition, and various withholding requirements.
This opinion is given as of the date hereof, and we assume no obligation to update, revise
or supplement this opinion to reflect any facts or circumstances that may hereafter come to our
attention or any changes in law that may hereafter occur.
Very truly yours,

successor) resigns from its functions as depository, and no substitute depository can be
obtained, or (B) the Finance Director determines that it is in the best interest of the beneficial

shall be held separate and apart from all other funds and accounts of the City.
(b) Priority of Payments from the Waterworks Utility Fund. Gross Revenue on

(i) To pay Maintenance and Operation Expense;
(ii) To pay the interest on the Parity Bonds, including reimbursements to the

Bonds and the ordinance authorizing such Parity Bonds provides for such

(iii) To pay the principal of the Parity Bonds, including reimbursements to the
issuer of a Credit Facility if the Credit Facility secures the payment of principal on Parity
Bonds and the ordinance authorizing such Parity Bonds provides for such
reimbursement;
(iv) To make all payments required to be made into any sinking fund or bond
redemption fund hereafter created for the payment of Future Parity Bonds which are
Term Bonds;
-25-
�` ORDINANCE N0. 5672 ''� -
(v) To make all payments required to be made into the Reserve Fund,
including any reimbursements required for Qualified Insurance or Qualified Letter of
Credit;
(vi) To make all payments required to be made into any revenue bond
redemption fund or warrant redemption fund and debt service account or reserve

revenue bonds or revenue warrants of the City having a lien upon Gross Revenue junior
and inferior to the lien thereon for the payment of the principal of and interest on the

(vii) To retire by optional redemption or purchase any outstanding revenue
bonds or revenue warrants of the City, to make necessary additions, betterments,
improvements and repairs to or extensions and replacements of the Waterworks Utility,

(c) Rate Stabilizorion Fund. The City has previously created a Waterworks Rate
Stabilization Fund (the "Rate Stabilization Fund"). The City may, at any time, as determined by
the City and as consistent with subsection (b) of this section, deposit Gross Revenue into the
Rate Stabilization Fund, excluding principal proceeds of Parity Bonds or other borrowing. The
City may withdraw any or all of the money from the Rate Stabilization Fund for inclusion in
Gross Revenue for any fiscal year of the City. Such deposits or withdrawals may be made up to
and including the date 90 days after the end of the fiscal year for which the deposit or
withdrawal will be included in Gross Revenue. No deposit of Gross Revenue will be made into
-26-
• `'�` ORDINANCE N0. 5672 '�•✓
the Rate Stabilization Fund to the extent that such deposit would prevent the City from meeting
the Coverage Requirement.
Section 7. Funds and Accounts.
(a) Bond Fund. There is hereby created in the City Treasury the Waterworks
Revenue Bond Fund, 2012 (the "Bond Fund"), which shall be a "Parity Bond Fund" and a
subaccount of the Waterworks Utility Fund. The Bond Fund shall be maintained for the
purpose of paying the principal of and interest on the Bonds. As long as any Bonds remain
outstanding, the City hereby irrevocably obligates and binds itself to set aside and pay from the
Waterworks Utility Fund into the Bond Fund those amounts necessary, together with such
other funds as are on hand and available in the Bond Fund, to pay the interest or principal and
interest next coming due on outstanding Bonds. Such payments from the Waterworks Utility
Fund to the Bond Fund shall be made in a fixed amount without regard to any fixed proportion
following the closing and delivery of the Bonds on or before each date on which an installment
of interest or principal and interest falls due on the Bonds equal to the installment of interest or
principal and interest.
(b) Reserve Fund. There has heretofore been created by the City a special fund of
the City known as the Waterworks Revenue Bond Reserve Fund (the "Reserve Fund") for
purpose of securing the payment of the principal of and interest on all Parity Bonds. The City
hereby irrevocably covenants and agrees that on or prior to the date of issuance of the Bonds,
the amount on deposit in the Reserve Fund will be at least equal to the Reserve Requirement.
Except for withdrawals therefrom as authorized herein, the Reserve Fund shall be
maintained at the Reserve Requirement at all times so (ong as any Parity Bonds are
-27-
+IMII�'° ORDINANCE NO. 5672 "� •
Outstanding. When the total amount in the Bond Fund shall equal the total amount of principal
and interest for all outstanding Bonds, no further payment need be made into the Bond Fund.
Notwithstanding the first sentence of this paragraph, the Reserve Requirement may be
decreased for any issue of Parity Bonds when and to the extent the City has redeemed or
otherwise defeased any Outstanding Parity Bonds.
If there shall be a deficiency in the Bond Fund to meet maturing installments of either
principal or interest, as the case may be, on the Bonds, that deficiency shall be made up from
the Reserve Fund by the withdrawal of cash therefrom for that purpose and after all cash has
been depleted, then by draws on the Qualified Insurance or Qualified Letter of Credit for that
purpose. Any deficiency created in the Reserve Fund by reason of any such withdrawal shall
then be made up from Net Revenue first available after making necessary provisions for the
required payments into the Bond Fund. Any money in the Reserve Fund in excess of the
Reserve Requirement may be withdrawn and deposited in any Parity Bond Fund and spent for
the purpose of retiring Parity Bonds or may be deposited in any other fund and spent for any
other lawful Waterworks Utility purpose.
The City may provide for the purchase, redemption or defeasance of Parity Bonds by the
use of money on deposit in the Bond Fund or the Reserve Fund as long as the money remaining
in those funds is sufficient to satisfy the required deposits in those funds for the remaining
Parity Bonds.
All money in the Bond Fund or Reserve Fund may be kept in cash or on deposit in the
official bank depository of the City or in any national bank or may be invested in any legal
investment for City funds. Interest on any of those investments or on that bank account shall
-28-
� '�"''" ORDINANCE NO. 5672 °�''
be deposited in the Reserve Fund until the total Reserve Requirement shall have been
accumulated therein, after which time the interest shall be deposited in any Parity Bond Fund.
Notwithstanding the provisions for the deposit or maintenance of earnings in the Bond
Fund or the Reserve Fund, the City also may transfer out of the Bond Fund or Reserve Fund any
money required in order to prevent any Parity Bonds from becoming "arbitrage bonds" under
the Code.
If the City fails to set aside and pay into the Bond Fund or the Reserve Fund the amounts
set forth above, the Registered Owner of any of the outstanding Bonds may bring an action
against the City to compel that setting aside and payment.
(c) Pledge of Revenue and Lien Position. The Net Revenue is hereby pledged to the
payment of the Parity Bonds, and the Parity Bonds shall constitute a lien and charge upon such
Net Revenue prior and superior to any other charge whatsoever.
(d) Regarding Sufficiency of Revenues. The Council hereby finds that in fixing the
amounts to be paid into the Bond Fund out of the Gross Revenues, it has exercised due regard
for the Maintenance and Operation Expense and has not obligated the City to set aside and pay
into such Fund a greater amount of such Gross Revenues than in its judgment will be available
over and above the Maintenance and Operation Expense.
Section 8. Covenants. The City covenants and agrees with the Registered Owner of
each Bond at any time outstanding as follows:
(a) Rote Covenant. It will establish, maintain and collect rates and charges for all

Amount Budgeted: $ Revenue Generated: $
Total Project Budget: $ City Share Total Project: $
SUMMARY OF ACTIQN:
Refund a portion of$10.335 million 2004 Water Sewer Revenue Bonds with;the issuance of$9.35
million of bonds, plus an estimated $650k premium.The total amount subject to optional redemption is
$9.895 million, however the interest rate would be higher if the City issued more than $10 million in tax
exempt bonds, including premium, per year. After premiums and interest due are calculated,the City is
limited to refunding approximately$9.015 million to maximize savings.
Principal maturing on and after December 1, 2015 is subject to optional redemption without penalty on
or after December 1, 2014. Because the bonds will be issued more than 90 days prior to the redemption
date, this is considered an advanced refunding issue. The proceeds from the new bonds will pay for
issuance costs and with $9.87 million deposited into an escrow accaunt to pay ioterest when due until
December 1, 2014.; at which time the principle amount of$9.015 million will be paid.
The$9.35 million bond issue (with $9.99 million in total proceeds) will have an estimated true interest
cost of 3.27�0, which would replace the current interest of 5.00%. Depending upon the actual interest
rates at the time of pricing, the refunding is expected to generate estimated interest savings of$857k
or, a cumulative net present value savings of$687k(7.6%).
In addition to the refinancing of the 2004 bonds, we also recommend to pay off a minor balance ($360k)
remaining on the 1998 Water/Sewer refunding revenue bonds carrying 5.1% interest rate due on
December 1, 2013.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Approve the proposed refinancing plan and adopt the ordinance authorizing issuance of$9.35 million o
bonds to refund $9.015 million of the 2004 Water Sewer Revenue Bonds and redemption of the 1998
bonds one year early.

TO: Rich Zwicker, Council President
Members of the Renton City Council

FROM: iwen Wang,Admin. Services Administrator
SUBIECT: Refunding 2004 Water-Sewer Revenue Bonds
ISSUE
Should the City refinance the 2004 Water-Sewer Bonds issued in 2004 to fund projects
identified the Waterworks Utility Capital Improvement Plan?
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends approval of the proposed refinancing plan and adoption of the necessary
ordinance authorizing the issuance of $9.35 million of bonds at a true interest cost of
approximatefy 3.27%, which will replace the existing $9.015 million of bands carrying an
average interest rate of 5.00% and generate an estimated savings of $857k in interest cost, or
$687k in net present value savings (7.6%) on the refunded bonds.
In addition, we also recommend to pay off a minor balance ($360k) remaining on the 1998
Water/Sewer refunding revenue bonds carrying 5.1%interest rate due on December l, 2013.
BACKGROUND
The City issued $10.335 million of Water and Sewer Revenue Bonds in 2004:
1) $5 million towards the $12 millicn new water filtrati�n facility at the Maplewood
booster pump station;
2) $2 million to install 7,000 linear feet of 18-24 inch sewer main on NE Sunset Blvd to
accommodate growth in the eastern area of the City;and
3) $3 million to replace 3,500 linear feet of 24 inch storm pipe along SW 7th Street to
address water drainage issues.
Principal maturing on and after December 1, 2015_is subject to optional redemption without
penalty on or after December 1, 2014. Because the bonds will be issued more than 90 days
prior to the redemption date, this is considered an advanced refunding issue. The proceeds of
the $9.35 million new bonds issued plus the projected issue premium of $650k, will pay for
� issuance costs and the remaining $9.87 million will be deposited into an escrow account to pay
interest when due until December 1, 2014; at which time the principle amount of$9.015 million
will be fulfy paid.
The total amount subject to optional redemption is $9.895 million, however the interest rate
woufd be higher if the City issued more than $10 miliion in tax exempt bonds, including
premium, per year. After premiums and interest due are calculated,the City is limited to
.` _.
; �,;
�
refunding approximately$9.015 million.
This partial refunding will leave a $1.32 million �fnrefunded portion of the 2004 bonds maturing
2018 or sooner,which can either be refinanced later or prepaid with Utility revenues on or after
December 1, 2014. To include this portion in the current refunding, they would have to be
refunded as taxable bonds and would only generate an approximate savings of$20,000.
The projected savings of the refunding bonds assumes the interest rate will be 0.5%higher than
current rate. Depending upon the actual interest rate at the time of the pricing,the total
interest cost saving could be as high as$1.5 million if the rates remains unchanged.
The 1998 water-sewer revenue bonds are scheduled to be paid off December 1, 2013,with total
outstanding principal of$360k. By paying off the bonds one year early the City will save 5.1%
on the outstanding principal.
CONCLUSION
Staff recommends the Council approve the refinancing ordinance and the assaciated
documents necessary to issue the new bonds, including the escrow agreement, and the
redemption of a portion of the outstanding 2004 Water Sewer Revenue Bonds and earfy
payment of the remaining 1998 Water Sewer Revenue Bonds.

Section 7. Funds and Accounts.
(a) Bond Fund. [There is hereby created in the City Treasury the Waterworks
-24-
,i •
• � '�
Revenue Bond Fund, 2012 (the "Bond Fund"), which shall be a "Parity Bond Fund" and a
subaccount of the Waterworks Utility Fund.) [does the City currently or does it prefer to i►ave a
combined bond fund for the purpose of paying debt service on all water and sewer bonds?J
The Bond Fund shall be maintained for the purpose of paying the principal of and interest on
the Bonds. As long as any Bonds remain outstanding, the City hereby irrevocably obligates and
binds itself to set aside and pay from the Waterworks Utility Fund into the Bond Fund those
amounts necessary, together with such other funds as are on hand and available in the Band
Fund, to pay the interest or principal and interest next coming due on outstanding Bonds. Such
payments from the Waterworks Utility Fund to the Bond Fund shall be made in a fixed amount
without regard to any fixed proportion following the closing and delivery of the Bonds an or
before each date on which an installment af interest or principal and interest falls due on the
Bonds equal to the installment of interest or principal and interest.
(b) Reserve Fund. There has heretofore been created by the City a special fund of
the City known as the Waterworks Revenue Bond Reserve Fund (the "Reserve Fund") for
purpose of securing the payment of the principal of and interest on all Parity Bonds. [The City
hereby irrevocably covenants and agrees that on or prior to the date of issua�ce of the Bonds,
the amount on deposit in the Reserve Fund will be at least equat to the Reserve Requirement.j
Except for withdrawals therefrom as authorized herein, the Reserve Fund shall be
maintained at the Reserve Requirement at all times so long as any Parity Bonds are
Outstanding. When the total amount in the Bond Fund shall equal the total amount of principal
and interest for a(I outstanding Bonds, no further payment need be made into the Bond Fund.
Notwithstanding the first sentence of this paragraph, the Reserve Requirement may be
decreased for any issue of Parity Bonds when and to the extent the City has redeemed or
-ZS-
� ,
� `'� .
otherwise defeased any Outstanding Parity Bonds.
If there shall be a deficiency in the Bond Fund to meet maturing installments of either
principal or interest, as the case may be, on the Bonds, that deficiency shall be made up from
the Reserve Fund by the withdrawal of cash therefrom for that purpose and after all cash has
been depleted, then by draws on the qualified Insurance or Qualified Letter of Credit for that
purpose. Any deficiency created in the Reserve Fund by reason of any such withdrawal shall
then be made up from Net Revenue first available after making necessary provisions for the
required payments into the Bond Fund. Any money in the Reserve Fund in excess of the
Reserve Requirement may be withdrawn and deposited in any Parity Bond Fund and spent for
the purpose of retiring Parity Bonds or may be deposited in any other fund and spent for any
other lawful Waterworks Utility purpose.
The City may provide for the purchase, redemption or defeasance of Parity Bonds by the
use of money on deposit in the Bond Fund or the Reserve Fund as long as the money remaining
in those funds is sufficient to satisfy the required deposits in those funds for the remaining
Parity Bonds.
All money in the Bond Fund or Reserve Fund may be kept in cash or on deposit in the
official bank depository of the City or in any national bank or may be invested in any legal
investment for City funds. Interest on any of those investments or on that bank account shall
be deposited in the Reserve Fund until the total Reserve Requirement shall have been
accumulated therein, after which time the interest shall be deposited in any Parity Bond Fund.
Notwithstanding the provisions for the deposit or maintenance of earnings in the Bond
Fund or the Reserve Fund, the City also may transfer out of the Bond Fund or Reserve Fund any
money required in order to prevent any Parity Bor►ds from becoming "arbitrage bonds" under
-26-
•
''�r�+' �v

set forth above, the Registered Owner of any of the outstanding Bonds may bring an action
against the City to compel that setting aside and payment.
(c) Pledge of Revenue and Lien Position. The Net Revenue is hereby pledged to the
payment of the Parity Bonds, and the Parity Bonds shall constitute a lien and charge upon such
Net Revenue prior and superior to any other charge whatsoever.

amounts to be paid into the Bond Fund out of the Gross Revenues, it has exercised due regard
for the Maintenance and Operation Expense and has not obiigated the City to set aside and pay
into such Fund a greater amount of such Gross Revenues than in its judgment will be available
over and above the Maintenance and Operation Expense.
