ADMINISTRATIVE REPORT
Interim CAO Ed VanValey reviewed a written administrative report summarizing the City’s
recent progress towards goals and work programs adopted as part of its business plan for
2021 and beyond. Items noted were:
Starting Wednesday, March 3, the Renton School District will begin returning to in-
class learning for their elementary grade students. Please remember to be cautious
and courteous as some of our younger community members are walking to school
and be patient as buses pick up along their routes. School zone speed cameras will be
operational, in addition to extra police patrols around the schools to ensure a safe
return for the students.
Families and children are invited to visit Sunset Neighborhood Park from March 7-28
for a self-guided PopUp StoryWalk titled “Bea’s Bees.” The book will be displayed
page-by-page on poster boards next to the walking path to read while strolling
through the park. Support for this project comes from the City of Renton and the
Renton Municipal Arts Commission. For more information, contact Community
Services at 425-430-6600.
Renton Municipal Court will launch Renton Municipal Community Court to bring a
new approach to dealing with low-level offenders. Community courts work to keep
individuals who commit the lowest level crimes out of jail. The court uses a problem-
solving approach based on rehabilitation and accountability to work towards a
reduction in reoffending. Sentences combine punishment with enrollment in pre-trial
diversion programs, such as drug treatment or mental health counseling. Participants
will have on-site access to services and weekly or bi-weekly court hearings. Judge Kara
Murphy Richards will host a Renton Municipal Community Court Informational Forum
via Zoom on Tuesday, March 2, from 7-8 p.m. Active participation is limited to the
first 50 individuals to register. The forum will also stream on YouTube. Attendees can
get questions and concerns answered, and court staff will explain how the community
can get involved. Visit http://rentonwa.gov/communitycourt for more information.
Preventative street maintenance will continue to impact traffic and result in
occasional street closures.

SUBJECT:2021 Title IV Docket #16 Items
ISSUE:
Should the 2021 Title IV Docket #16 work program be referred to the Planning &
Development Committee and the Planning Commission for consideration and potential
adoption?
RECOMMENDATION:
Refer the additional items for the 2021 Title IV Docket #16 to the Planning and
Development Committee and Planning Commission for review. Following this review,
the Planning Commission will present code revision recommendations to Council.
BACKGROUND SUMMARY:
RMC 4-8-070G outlines the types of review the Planning Commission shall conduct.
The review of the Development Regulations (Title IV Docket) process is specifically
listed. Land Use Regulations review occurs upon Council request. The Planning
Commission will make recommendations regarding the Land Use Regulations to the
Council. Final recommendation of the Title IV Docket will be the authority of the
Council.
Title IV Development Regulations
This process is codified in RMC 4-9-025, Title IV Development Regulation Revision
Process. Staff has compiled a series of amendments to Title IV of the Renton Municipal
Code (Development Regulations) that initiates several regulatory initiatives that
respond to important issues facing the City. The proposed list of amendments includes
City initiated amendments as shown in the Table below.
CONCLUSION:
The proposed schedule for review of the Title IV Docket #16 Amendments is for the
Planning Commission review to occur throughout 2021.
AGENDA ITEM #6. b)
2021 TITLE IV DOCKET #16
City Initiated Amendments
Humane Pet Store Ordinance
Ordinance for humane pet stores. Consider establishing rules to ensure that pet sale stores meet minimum
standards for safe and healthy treatment for the pets they sell.
Sewer Service Outside City Limits
Recent review from the City Attorney’s Office indicates that the City should extend sewer to areas in the
unincorporated county in all instances, including to new subdivisions. The code currently only allows extensions
of sewer to a single parcel. This code section needs to be reviewed.
Public Notice Requirement for Appeals
Remove the requirement for publication of an appeal hearing from title IV. In an appeal public hearing there is
no opportunity for the public to comment or provide input into the process. Therefore, the extra step adds time
and cost to the appeal process without public benefit.
Rental Registration Program
Clarify exemptions
Clarify Rental Checklists Requirements to indicate document must be submitted for each of landlord’s
rental properties annually along with the Declaration of Compliance.
Clarify Residential Checklist requirements when it comes to self-inspection for properties with more
than 20 units.
Provide checklist alternative if a landlord alternatively submits a certificate of inspection, completed by
a third-party.
Clarify submission of Certificate of Inspection: a certificate of inspection must be provided to the City
within a 30 days, after F(1)-(3). The certificate of inspection is required to be submitted with a new
registration if a violation is found in the previous 12 months. Clarify that if violations are found on the
Certificate of Inspection, landlords may be subject to further violations.
Impact Fee Credit
Amend the sliding scale for the amount of time a property can claim impact fee credit for previous uses;
from 2 ½ -5 years to 3 years.
Adjust timing of collection of impact fees from permit submittal to permit issuance.
Setbacks in Commercial Zones
A footnote to the Commercial Standards table for commercial zones that states that setbacks can be reduced to
0 ft. through site plan review. This needs to be reviewed and reconsidered.
Fence Standards in Commercial Zones
Review fence regulations and evaluate standards relating to scale, placement, safety, design, and materials of
fences, notably within commercial zones. The current regulations lack distinguished requirements for varying
uses and overlay districts which creates conflict between code implementation and intention. This review will
include clearing up existing discrepancies or contradictions in 4-4-040, Fences, Hedges, and Retaining Walls. Due
to the fact that there are currently no clear vision standards for driveways, this may include evaluating the need
to define clear vision areas with respect to commercial zones.
Docket Items for Sunsetting Programs
The waived fees and MFTE program
Residential Accessory Structures
Assess and make amendments to residential zoning standards for accessory structures, including but not limited
to, allowed height, area, and number, exemptions, and how to regulate covered decks and patios.
Applicability of Urban Design Regulations
Consider when/how urban design regulations should be applied to existing structures.
Clarify definition and distinction between duplexes and SFR
AGENDA ITEM #6. b)
Provide clarity for staff when reviewing building permits for single-family residential homes with additional
“units” inside. We’ve seen an uptick in new SFR home proposing what is essentially a secondary unit either in
the basement or in some other area of the house. What constitutes an attached accessory dwelling unit (i.e.
separate entrance? atmospherically connected? Kitchen? Etc) so that we can more easily approve or deny
permits that include this type of secondary unit.
Additional height in the RMF zone to be considered via a CUP similar to other residential zones such as the R-
14.
The front setback in the RMF zone is 10 ft. for townhomes and 20 ft. for other attached dwellings. I would
recommend that the setback be amended to 15 ft. for townhomes, as the 10 ft. setback is the smallest setback
in comparison to the majority of City zones.
TOD Subarea Development Regulations and Other Codework
Subsequent to the adoption of the Rainier/Grady Junction Subarea Plan staff will need to draft and adopt
development regulations for the overlay. Subject to adoption of the TOD Subarea Plan and consultant contract.
Plan/Policy Development
Comprehensive Plan
Review with Council planned changes in anticipation of King County policy changes.
Initiate 8 year required Comprehensive Plan update, largely technical changes. Add implementation
strategies, add/amending policies to reflect current policies. Also, review each element for racial justice
and equity, as well as, climate change.
Buildable Lands
Evaluate Regional Center designation as Core City or Metro City. Also consider amending boundary to
include TOD area.
Consider Countywide Centers designation
2020 CPA North 30th
Rezone of approx. 2.65-acres of the N 30th St Study Area (7.41 acres, 12 parcels located between Park Ave N
and I-405 on N 30th St) from a land use designation Residential Medium Density (RMD) to Residential High
Density (RHD) and a zoning change from Residential-6 (R-6) to Commercial Neighborhood (CN). Three (3) of the
five (5) parcels are currently split zoned as R-6 and CN. Also, amendments to the CN zone regulations to improve
the implementation of the zone.
Joint Planning in Potential Annexation Areas
Work with King County to establish consistent development standards for the unincorporated area associated
with the City’s potential annexation area.
Update Clean Economy Strategy Plan
Adopted in 2010 and is in need of update for consistency with countywide and regional state work on this topic.

and/or AGENCY, their agents, officers and employees by the CONSULTANT, its agents, employees, sub-
consultants, subcontractors or vendors, of any tier, or any other persons for whom the CONSULTANT may be
legally liable.

consultants or subcontractors requiring such information for the purposes of carrying out this AGREEMENT,
and not to release, divulge, publish, transfer, sell, disclose, or otherwise make it known to any other party
without the AGENCY’s express written consent or as provided by law. The CONSULTANT agrees to release

CONSULTANT agrees to implement physical, electronic, and managerial safeguards to prevent unauthorized

competent jurisdiction enjoining that disclosure. If the CONSULTANT fails to obtain the court order enjoining
disclosure, the AGENCY will release the requested information on the date specified.

that may include a sub-consultant’s proprietary and/or confidential information. The CONSULTANT

requester and state that unless the sub-consultant obtains a court order from a court of competent jurisdiction
enjoining that disclosure the AGENCY will release the requested information. If the CONSULTANT and/or

Proposal to Provide Construction Materials Testing
Houser Way Intersection & Pedestrian Project ■ Renton, WA
February 17, 2021 ■ Mayes Testing Engineers, Inc Proposal No. 2021-082T
Responsive ■ Resourceful ■ Reliable 2
• Aggregates/Borrow Soils: Field density testing, gradations, sand equivalent, fractured
face, and Proctors.
• Concrete testing: Conduct field testing of plastic concrete to include sampling,
temperature, slump, air content, and casting samples for determination of compressive
strength. Assuming random sampling, as directed by client.
Our field personnel will provide verbal results to the project engineer after completion of each field
test and will submit a written Daily Inspection Report prior to leaving the site.
Mayes Testing Engineers, Inc., A Terracon Company has developed a proprietary software
program called the Construction Materials Engineering and Laboratory Management System
(CMELMS). This program allows us to achieve better communication, consistency, and faster
turnaround of reporting on the project. Data, observations, and other information are easily
entered into the system and reports are generated. The program automatically tracks all reports
and provides immediate availability of test results resulting in a rapid delivery of test reports and
information to the client and the entire design team. Additionally, the statistical performance of all
concrete mixes being utilized on a project can also be monitored.
The CMELMS software can produce electronic or paper copies of reports for distribution. Reports
can be distributed via traditional mail, electronic mail, and/or Internet web pages can be
established. Our typical turnaround time is two business days from when the inspection occurred.
This is far faster than the once a week mailing that is the industry standard. This once again
proves our understanding of the fast paced world we live in, and our commitment to keeping the
pace.
In addition to quickly and accurately reporting test results, the program will also track our project
budget on a daily basis and produce real-time budget reports and invoices for services provided.
Services for this project will be provided based out of our Tacoma, Washington office. Our level
of involvement is expected to vary from full-time to part-time depending upon the actual schedule
and sequencing of construction activities. We would request that services be scheduled 48 hours
in advance of the time our personnel are needed at the project site by contacting our office at
253-584-3720. We are prepared to commit the resources, staffing and expertise necessary for a
quality oriented inspection and testing program.
C. COMPENSATION
We propose to provide our services on a time and materials basis in accordance with a mutually
agreeable contract. Based upon our understanding of the project Mayes estimates the cost of our
services to be approximately $14,942.00. Mayes Testing Engineers fee estimate does not include
fee associated with retesting, stand-by time, cancelled services or services request outside of the
aforementioned scope of services. Many factors, including those beyond our control such as
weather or the contractor’s schedule will dictate Mayes Testing Engineers final fee for services.

Exhibit I
Alleged Consultant Design Error Procedures
The purpose of this exhibit is to establish a procedure to determine if a consultant has alleged design error is of a
nature that exceeds the accepted standard of care. In addition, it will establish a uniform method for the
resolution and/or cost recovery procedures in those instances where the agency believes it has suffered some
material damage due to the alleged error by the consultant.
Step 1 Potential Consultant Design Error(s) is Identified by Agency’s Project Manager
At the first indication of potential consultant design error(s), the first step in the process is for the
Agency’s project manager to notify the Director of Public Works or Agency Engineer regarding the
potential design error(s). For federally funded projects, the Region Local Programs Engineer should be
informed and involved in these procedures. (Note: The Director of Public Works or Agency Engineer
may appoint an agency staff person other than the project manager, who has not been as directly
involved in the project, to be responsible for the remaining steps in these procedures.)
Step 2 Project Manager Documents the Alleged Consultant Design Error(s)
After discussion of the alleged design error(s) and the magnitude of the alleged error(s), and with the
Director of Public Works or Agency Engineer’s concurrence, the project manager obtains more detailed
documentation than is normally required on the project. Examples include all decisions and descriptions
of work, photographs, records of labor, materials, and equipment.
Step 3 Contact the Consultant Regarding the Alleged Design Error(s)
If it is determined that there is a need to proceed further, the next step in the process is for the project
manager to contact the consultant regarding the alleged design error(s) and the magnitude of the alleged
error(s). The project manager and other appropriate agency staff should represent the agency and the
consultant should be represented by their project manager and any personnel (including sub-consultants)
deemed appropriate for the alleged design error(s) issue.
Step 4 Attempt to Resolve Alleged Design Error with Consultant
After the meeting(s) with the consultant have been completed regarding the consultant’s alleged design
error(s), there are three possible scenarios:
•It is determined via mutual agreement that there is not a consultant design error(s). If this is the case,
then the process will not proceed beyond this point.
•It is determined via mutual agreement that a consultant design error(s) occurred. If this is the case,
then the Director of Public Works or Agency Engineer, or their representatives, negotiate a settlement
with the consultant. The settlement would be paid to the agency or the amount would be reduced
from the consultant’s agreement with the agency for the services on the project in which the design
error took place. The agency is to provide LP, through the Region Local Programs Engineer, a
summary of the settlement for review and to make adjustments, if any, as to how the settlement
affects federal reimbursements. No further action is required.
•There is not a mutual agreement regarding the alleged consultant design error(s). The consultant may
request that the alleged design error(s) issue be forwarded to the Director of Public Works or Agency
Engineer for review. If the Director of Public Works or Agency Engineer, after review with their legal
counsel, is not able to reach mutual agreement with the consultant, proceed to Step 5.

Local Agency A&E Professional Services Agreement Number ____________
Negotiated Hourly Rate Consultant Agreement Revised 01/01/2020
Step 5 Forward Documents to Local Programs
For federally funded projects, all available information, including costs, should be forwarded through the
Region Local Programs Engineer to LP for their review and consultation with the FHWA. LP will meet
with representatives of the agency and the consultant to review the alleged design error(s), and attempt to
find a resolution to the issue. If necessary, LP will request assistance from the Attorney General’s Office
for legal interpretation. LP will also identify how the alleged error(s) affects eligibility of project costs
for federal reimbursement.
•If mutual agreement is reached, the agency and consultant adjust the scope of work and costs to
reflect the agreed upon resolution. LP, in consultation with FHWA, will identify the amount of federal
participation in the agreed upon resolution of the issue.
•If mutual agreement is not reached, the agency and consultant may seek settlement by arbitration or
by litigation.

Exhibit J
Consultant Claim Procedures
The purpose of this exhibit is to describe a procedure regarding claim(s) on a consultant agreement. The
following procedures should only be utilized on consultant claims greater than $1,000. If the consultant’s
claim(s) total a $1,000 or less, it would not be cost effective to proceed through the outlined steps. It is
suggested that the Director of Public Works or Agency Engineer negotiate a fair and reasonable price for the
consultant’s claim(s) that total $1,000 or less.
This exhibit will outline the procedures to be followed by the consultant and the agency to consider a potential
claim by the consultant.
Step 1 Consultant Files a Claim with the Agency Project Manager
If the consultant determines that they were requested to perform additional services that were outside of
the agreement’s scope of work, they may be entitled to a claim. The first step that must be completed is
the request for consideration of the claim to the Agency’s project manager.
The consultant’s claim must outline the following:
•Summation of hours by classification for each firm that is included in the claim
•Any correspondence that directed the consultant to perform the additional work;
•Timeframe of the additional work that was outside of the project scope;
•Summary of direct labor dollars, overhead costs, profit and reimbursable costs associated with the
additional work; and
•Explanation as to why the consultant believes the additional work was outside of the agreement
scope of work.
Step 2 Review by Agency Personnel Regarding the Consultant’s Claim for Additional Compensation
After the consultant has completed step 1, the next step in the process is to forward the request to the
Agency’s project manager. The project manager will review the consultant’s claim and will met with the
Director of Public Works or Agency Engineer to determine if the Agency agrees with the claim. If the
FHWA is participating in the project’s funding, forward a copy of the consultant’s claim and the
Agency’s recommendation for federal participation in the claim to the WSDOT Local Programs through
the Region Local Programs Engineer. If the claim is not eligible for federal participation, payment will
need to be from agency funds.
If the Agency project manager, Director of Public Works or Agency Engineer, WSDOT Local Programs
(if applicable), and FHWA (if applicable) agree with the consultant’s claim, send a request memo,
including backup documentation to the consultant to either supplement the agreement, or create a new
agreement for the claim. After the request has been approved, the Agency shall write the supplement
and/or new agreement and pay the consultant the amount of the claim. Inform the consultant that the
final payment for the agreement is subject to audit. No further action in needed regarding the claim
procedures.
If the Agency does not agree with the consultant’s claim, proceed to step 3 of the procedures.

Local Agency A&E Professional Services Agreement Number ____________
Negotiated Hourly Rate Consultant Agreement Revised 01/01/2020
Step 3 Preparation of Support Documentation Regarding Consultant’s Claim(s)
If the Agency does not agree with the consultant’s claim, the project manager shall prepare a summary
for the Director of Public Works or Agency Engineer that included the following:
•Copy of information supplied by the consultant regarding the claim;
•Agency’s summation of hours by classification for each firm that should be included in the claim
•Any correspondence that directed the consultant to perform the additional work;
•Agency’s summary of direct labor dollars, overhead costs, profit and reimbursable costs associate
with the additional work;
•Explanation regarding those areas in which the Agency does/does not agree with the consultant’s
claim(s);
•Explanation to describe what has been instituted to preclude future consultant claim(s); and
•Recommendations to resolve the claim.
Step 4 Director of Public Works or Agency Engineer Reviews Consultant Claim and Agency
Documentation
The Director of Public Works or Agency Engineer shall review and administratively approve or
disapprove the claim, or portions thereof, which may include getting Agency Council or Commission
approval (as appropriate to agency dispute resolution procedures). If the project involves federal
participation, obtain concurrence from WSDOT Local Programs and FHWA regarding final settlement
of the claim. If the claim is not eligible for federal participation, payment will need to be from agency
funds.
Step 5 Informing Consultant of Decision Regarding the Claim
The Director of Public Works or Agency Engineer shall notify (in writing) the consultant of their final
decision regarding the consultant’s claim(s). Include the final dollar amount of the accepted claim(s) and
rationale utilized for the decision.
Step 6 Preparation of Supplement or New Agreement for the Consultant’s Claim(s)
The agency shall write the supplement and/or new agreement and pay the consultant the amount of the
claim. Inform the consultant that the final payment for the agreement is subject to audit

TASK 1 Recycling Collection Events & Vouchers
SCHEDULE January 2021 – December 2022
GOAL
To increase residential recycle opportunities of materials not collected curbside
To divert recyclable materials from the landfill
DESCRIPTION
The City of Renton has provided recycling collection events for materials not collected at the
curb since the early 1990s. Most of the materials collected originally did not have convenient or
cost-effective recycling opportunities for community members. Over the past three decades,
opportunities for recycling many items previously collected at these large events have increased
both within the city limits and the region. The city views this task, as a transition to a more
sustainable strategy for promoting recycling materials not collected at the curb. Our goal is to
move beyond event recycling which limits customer access to recycling and is not cost-effective.
Additionally, through Task 4. General WPR Education, Outreach & Policy, staff hope to increase
customer knowledge of local opportunities to recycle materials year-round that were historically
collected at these events. For this reason, Renton is shifting its strategy for providing collection
events to offering event recycling for materials that have limited local access and/or that have
proven problematic in the curbside collection program. Events will be available to all residential
households from the greater Renton community including, but not limited to unincorporated
areas such as Skyway, May Valley, and East Renton Plateau. The City will offer one or two
materials at each event. A minimum of four events will be offered during the grant cycle. For
some materials, where there is local recycling access, and/or cost may be a factor, the city may
also consider offering vouchers to customers on a first-come, first-serve basis to connect
customers to local recyclers.
Materials currently considered for event recycling include:
• Shredded Paper
• Styrofoam
• Mattresses
• Large Metals

TASK 2 Multifamily Recycling
SCHEDULE January 2021 – December 2022
GOAL
To increase multifamily recycling diversion rate and decrease contaminants
DESCRIPTION
In 2019 and 2020 the City provided recycling outreach and technical assistance to multifamily
property managers and residents that followed best management practices established in the
region. On-site signage for both external and internal community collection locations, container
labels, and residential guidelines were developed and printed. A holiday tree recycling program
was established and piloted in 2019. A customer database was improved and expanded to track
outreach, improvements on site, and to serve as a tool to engage with and develop regular
communication with property managers.
The City will provide technical assistance to multifamily properties that focus on strategies to
improve waste prevention and recycling performance. Strategies will be consistent with
community-based social marketing and may include but not limited to:
• Infrastructure improvements, such as right-sizing containers and collection schedules,
accessible containers, color-coded waste containers, etc.
• Collaboration and coordination with the City’s contracted hauler
• Site visits and engagement with property owners, managers, and/or residents
• Distribution of education materials
• Placement of instructional signage and other recycling messages
• Development of targeted communications using a variety of media
• Incentives such as recycling tote bags or other tools to encourage recycling
• Customer surveys
Progress will be tracked in the database to identify any gaps in service, the need for additional
education, or other issues that arise. The information gained may result in shifts in how outreach
and technical assistance are conducted.
EVALUATION
• Number of engagements/technical service
• Customer satisfaction
• Volume of recyclables collected
• % recyclables diverted from the waste stream

TASK 3 Residential Recycle & Compost Anti-Contamination
SCHEDULE March 2021 – December 2022
GOALS
To improve the overall quality of recyclable materials collected and delivered to regional
material recovery facilities.
To reduce the number and amount of contaminants collected in the residential recycle and
compost programs.
DESCRIPTION
With the introduction of single-stream recycling in 2009, as well as the expansion of the types of
material accepted in its residential recycling program the City of Renton has experienced
increased levels of contamination in both its recycle and compost collection programs. The
introduction of new policies by China that set strict limits on contaminants for recyclable
materials entering their country has placed additional strain on our region’s efforts to process
and market the materials collected. While Renton has followed regional guidelines to eliminate
certain materials from their curbside and multifamily programs, such as plastic bags, and
shredded paper, it is clear that additional efforts are needed to reduce contaminants, and
improve the overall quality of recyclables entering the collection and processing system.
This project will develop and begin the implementation of a comprehensive recycle and compost
collection quality assurance and monitoring program. Elements of the program may include, but
not be limited to some or all of the following:
• Develop a methodology to measure contaminants collected in each the recycle and
compost collection programs
• Establish baseline contamination rates to measure program impacts
• Develop pre- and/or on- route cart/container tagging system that both recognizes
preferred recycling behaviors, and that identifies problem recycling behaviors
• Develop data collection and reporting system
• Produce customer education and outreach materials to support program
• Develop, conduct and analyze customer surveys
EVALUATION
The evaluation plan for this program will be submitted to King County before the
implementation of the program.

Exhibit B
2021-2022 WRR Grant Guidelines - Revised
Program Eligibility:
The King County Solid Waste Division (SWD) SWD has updated the WRR Recycling Case Studies
document (Attachment 3) and created a WRR Case Studies Summary (Attachment 4), which include
many creative and innovative project ideas for WRR Grant proposals/scopes of work. These case
studies offer ideas for influencing waste prevention and recycling consistent with Title 10 of King
County Code, the King County Strategic Climate Action Plan, and the King County 2019
Comprehensive Solid Waste Management Plan, all of which have policies to achieve Zero Waste of
Resources by 2030. SWD strongly encourages consideration of these projects in the development of
grant proposals and encourages Cities to leverage WRR grant funds with multi-City projects.
Grant funds may be used for a variety of WRR related programs consistent with the Comp Plan. Cities
are encouraged to work together to leverage funds and have a greater influence on waste prevention
and recycling. Cities may choose to use their funding on one program or a combination of programs.
For WRR program ideas, please refer to the Case Studies, which includes the examples below.
Examples of innovative projects:
• City Development of Contracts for “Responsible Recycling.”
• King County Solid Waste Division Market Development for Recycled Materials.
• King County Climate Action Through Low Embodied Carbon Purchasing.
• King County SWD: Multicultural Recycling Outreach - Recicla Mas! Es Fascilisimo.
• Regional Code Development for C&D Diversion.
• Purchase School Milk Dispensers and Reusable Cups to Replace Single-use Milk Cartons.
• City of Auburn Commercial Food Waste Outreach.
• City of Bellevue Recycling Unusual of Bulky Items.
• City of Kirkland Organics Contamination Enforcement – Cart Tagging
Please contact Lucy Auster at 206-477-5268 or lucy.auster@kingcounty.gov if you have questions
about specific program eligibility and/or consistency with the Comp Plan.
The following are not eligible for funding:
• Collection of garbage, except for residual garbage related to the collection of recyclables.
• Household Hazardous Waste (HHW) education programs.
• Collection of any household hazardous waste items including, but not limited to:
treated wood, paint, lead acid batteries, oil, gasoline, and antifreeze, fluorescent lights.
Cities should pursue funding for HHW collection or education programs through the King County
Hazardous Waste Management Program (Haz Waste) or the Washington State Department of Ecology
Local Solid Waste Financial Assistance (LSWFA) Program.

Grant Administration
Requests for Reimbursement:
Cities may submit one request for reimbursement per year during the funding cycle, due no later than
March 18, 2022 and March 17, 2023. Alternately, cities may submit requests for reimbursement as
frequently as quarterly. A Budget Summary Report Form and an Expense Summary Report Form must
be used when submitting requests for reimbursement and will be provided to Cities when the grant
agreements are executed.
Accrual Reporting:
By the 5th working days of January 2022 and January 2023, Cities must notify SWD of the amount of
their total expenditures for work that has been completed but for which a request for reimbursement
has not yet been submitted, so that SWD can accrue the amounts.
Progress Reports
Progress reports describing program activities, accomplishments, and evaluation results must
accompany each request for reimbursement. All progress reports must be signed by a City official.
Signed reports may be scanned and emailed.
Amendments
Formal amendments to grant Interagency Agreements (IAAs) are unnecessary unless the City wishes
to significantly change its scope of work and/or budget. In general, a significant change would be one
in which the City wishes to add or delete a task from their scope of work. A minor change, such as
moving dollars between tasks, would only require written notification, which may be submitted via e-
mail. However, the City should contact SWD when considering changes to their scopes and budgets to
determine if a formal amendment is needed.
SWD has streamlined the amendment process to make it easier for Cities to make changes. A City
wishing to amend it scope of work will send an email to Lucy Auster with a revised scope of work,
including the following:
• A brief description of any new tasks, the amount, and the start and end dates.
• A brief description of additional work you will do in any existing task you wish to move funds
into from another task, the amount, and start and end dates.
• A brief description of work currently in your scope that you will not be doing, the amount that
will either be going to a new task or moving to an existing task and if so which one, and a start
date.
Any work included in the new scope still needs to be consistent with the Comp Plan. Once the new
scope of work is approved, SWD will follow up with a unilateral amendment to your agreement, which
does not require City signature.
