Councilmember Vǎn stated for the record: "As far as my “nay” vote in regard to the Planning
and Development Committee recommendation to close the referral for hazard pay for
grocery workers – while I understand that grocery workers are essential workers and noted
that they have been given certain access to vaccinations and other protections – however, the
referral was to increase hazard pay for them because they are in the front line working during
the pandemic, and as we are speaking they are out there, putting their lives on the line. And I
want to make sure that we are here advocating for our working families and the residents in
Renton that are struggling and are putting their lives on the line to put food on our tables, so
thank you Mr. Mayor.”

SUBJECT:Resolution to Adopt South King County Housing and
Homelessness Partners 2022 Work Plan and Operating Budget
ISSUE:
Should City Council approve a resolution to adopt the South King County Housing and
Homelessness Partners 2022 Work Plan and Operating Budget?
RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt the resolution approving the South King County Housing and Homelessness
Partners 2022 Work Plan and Operating Budget.
SUMMARY:
The South King Housing and Homelessness Partners (SKHHP) was established through an
interlocal agreement to work together and share resources to increase the available
options for South King County residents to access affordable housing and preserve the
existing affordable housing stock. In accordance with the Interlocal Agreement, the
annual SKHHP work plan and budget must be approved by the legislative body of each
member jurisdiction in addition to the SKHHP Executive Board.
BACKGROUND:
The SKHHP was established through an interlocal agreement the City of Renton
executed on May 24, 2019. In accordance with the Interlocal Agreement the annual
SKHHP work plan and budget must be approved by the legislative body of each member
jurisdiction in addition to the SKHHP Executive Board. Each SKHHP jurisdiction had an
opportunity to review and provide feedback on the work plan and budget prior to
Executive Board adoption. The 2022 SKHHP work plan and budget priorities were
reviewed by the Renton City Council Planning and Development Committee at the May
10, 2021 meeting. The feedback from member jurisdictions was used to draft the 2022
AGENDA ITEM #6. c)
Randy Corman, Council President
Page 2 of 3
October 13, 2021
SKHHP work plan and budget adopted by the SKHHP Executive Board on July 23, 2021
(see attachment to proposed resolution).
The SKHHP 2022 work plan and budget operationalizes the SKHHP mission and goals and
provides an itemization of all categories of budgeted expenses and itemization of each
party’s contribution, including in-kind services.
Work Plan
The 2022 work plan includes three major areas of work that will facilitate
implementation of the SKHHP Interlocal Agreement – governance and administration,
policy and planning, and education and outreach. The 2022 work plan builds on work
done in 2020 and 2021 to establish the SKHHP Housing Capital Fund through pooled
public resources, increase philanthropic and corporate investment through creation of a
SKHHP 501(c)(3) fundraising branch, and establish a SKHHP Advisory Board made up of
community members that will help to ground SKHHP decision in community needs and
interests.
The governance and administration work area includes strategic planning to set 3–5-
year goals for the organization, annual work plan and budget process, quarterly
progress and budget reports, and annual reporting to stakeholders and non-SKHHP
south King County cities. The policy and planning work area includes administering and
allocating funds from the SKHHP Housing Capital Fund and coordinating with partner
jurisdictions to enhance and develop new local housing policies and programs. The
outreach and education work area includes representing South King County at local and
regional decision tables and further strengthening regional stakeholders’ understanding
of housing needs and opportunities in South King County.
Operating Budget
The Interlocal Agreement including an adopted budget was established before staff was
hired and before the City of Auburn became the administering agency. As such, the
adopted budget for 2019 and 2020 was a projection of operating costs that did not
cover the full SKHHP operating costs. In light of the COVID-19 pandemic and resulting
revenue shortfalls and budget uncertainties, original jurisdictions contributions were
maintained in 2021. This was made possible by personnel cost savings from 2019 and
2020. This decision intentionally spent down some of the cost savings from the previous
two years to cover operating costs and deferred consideration of increasing member
contributions to the 2022 operating budget.
During the development of the 2022 SKHHP operating budget, feedback from SKHHP
partner jurisdictions and the SKHHP staff work group identified the following budget
priorities for 2022:
• Work towards a balanced budget.
AGENDA ITEM #6. c)
Randy Corman, Council President
Page 3 of 3
October 13, 2021
• Increase staff capacity to two full-time positions.
• Consider a compensation structure for SKHHP Advisory Board members.
The 2022 SKHHP operating budget operationalizes these priorities by increasing
jurisdiction contributions by 15%. The SKHHP budget contributions are based on
population size, as shown in the attachment to the resolution. Renton’s 2022 SKHHP
contribution is $39,100.
If there are any additional contributions to SKHHP’s operating budget from sources such
as existing SKHHP partners, additional partners become part of SKHHP, or contributions
or donations from outside sources, each SKHHP partner contribution could be reduced
through an amended budget.
CONCLUSION:
Consistent with the SKHHP Interlocal Agreement, the SKHHP 2022 work plan and budget
must be approved by each legislative body and adopted by the SKHHP Executive Board.
The 2022 SKHHP work plan and budget operationalizes the agreed upon priorities of the
SKHHP Executive Board by acting cooperatively to formulate housing policies and
strategies that address housing stability, foster efforts to preserve and provide
affordable housing by combining public funding and private-sector resources, and
support implementation of other local policies and programs relating to affordable
housing.

SUBJECT/TITLE: Establishment of the Renton Equity Commission
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Refer to Committee of the Whole
DEPARTMENT: Equity, Housing, and Human Services Department
STAFF CONTACT: Preeti Shridhar, Equity, Housing, and Human Services Administrator
EXT.: 6569
FISCAL IMPACT SUMMARY:
Establishment of the Renton Equity Commission has no fiscal impact. In alignment with other city boards,
commissions, or committees, the members are not compensated for their service to the Commission.
SUMMARY OF ACTION:
The Department of Equity, Housing, and Human Services (EHHS) is requesting Council approval and adoption of an
ordinance to establish and staff the Renton Equity Commission. Members will be appointed by the Mayor and
subject to confirmation by the City Council. The Equity Commission will consist of 9 members and include one
youth representative between 18-25 years old. The Commission membership will reflect the diversity of the
city including, but not limited to ethnicity, race, age, gender, faith, gender identity and expression, and
profession. Since the Commission will provide recommendations to the City Council, Councilmembers will not
be eligible to serve on the body. Commission members will have a demonstrated history of supporting equity.
If approved the Commission and staff will work together to establish a regular meeting schedule and work
plan.
On May 10, 2021, the City Council approved the 2022-2027 Business Plan. The Business Plan includes goals
that work toward, "Building an inclusive, informed and hate-free city with equitable outcomes for all in support
of social, economic, and racial justice." Creation of the Department of Equity, Housing, and Human Services
last summer gives the city an opportunity to focus on diversity, equity, and inclusion . Such a focus in
conjunction with the EHHS Housing and Human Services divisions offer a community and internal scope that
can have greater impact as a bridge between the community and internal processes. The Commission will be
able to examine city policies, practices, and processes using the Renton Equity Lens to develop
recommendations that eradicate inequities and achieve equitable outcomes by eliminating racial, economic,
and social barriers in inter practices, city programs, services, and policies.

Renton Equity Lens to identify and address inequities in order to eliminate racial, economic, and
social barriers identified in City programs, services and policies.

SUMMARY OF ACTION:
The City of Renton and the Renton Municipal Court would like to contract with Linebarger Goggan Blair &
Sampson, LLP (LGBS) for their collection services. The city and Court’s current contract with AllianceOne is up
for renewal and it was decided to use this opportunity to evaluate other industry service providers. The city
focused on companies that would provide robust services and yield results. LGBS is dedicated to working all
our collection accounts with the same effort and attention regardless of dolla r amount. Additionally, LGBS has
more favorable terms and conditions than the city’s previous contract with AllianceOne. LGBS will be
responsible for preparing and filing bankruptcy documentation when applicable.

SUBJECT:Accounts Receivable Collection Service Contract
ISSUE
Should the city enter into a collection service contract with Linebarger Goggan Blair &
Sampson, LLP (LGBS) for both city and Municipal Court accounts receivables?
BACKGROUND
In 2015, the city executed a service contract with AllianceOne to perform collection
services on behalf of the city and Municipal Court. Most of the city’s general accounts
receivables represent grants, rent, private security, electronic home detention,
insurance recoveries, various types of permits, civil citations, and service fees. Accounts
sent to collections primarily consist of returned checks, electronic home detention fees,
insurance recoveries, and civil citations. As of August 2021, the amount in collection for
the city’s accounts receivable was $201,585.79. Primary accounts receivables for
Municipal Court include general infractions, criminal violations, parking violations and
photo enforcement infractions.
Due to the expiring contract with AllianceOne, the city has decided to evaluate other
collection agencies.
STATUS AND RECOMMENDATION
Three evaluation areas were taken into account as staff considered soliciting a request
for proposal for a new collection agency: volume, size and aging of accounts receivable,
Municipal Court recovery rate and contracted scope of work. Limited Jurisdiction Courts
have an extensive listserv and a tremendous amount of information shared between
courts by this platform. It was identified that other local cities have opted to go with

Linebarger Goggan Blair & Sampson, LLP (LGBS) after a competitive bid process. We
have explored this collection agency further to determine if they could offer better
services and value to the city than current provider AllianceOne.
Prior to the city’s AllianceOne contract at the end of 2014, the average recovery rate for
all Court accounts was 30%. With AllianceOne, the average recovery rate for 2018 –
2020 dropped by 21% with a current recovery rate of only 9%. Considering the
significant recovery rate drop of Municipal Court collections, there is concern
surrounding the level of customer service and performance of collection efforts. LGBS
works all accounts with the same effort, regardless of the dollar amount assigned;
AllianceOne has been designating smaller dollar amount accounts with lower priority
and not actively working them.

Total 52,746 $10,988,563.00 $1,012,369.00 9%$8,815,705.00
Further, our current AllianceOne contract allows for them to cancel accounts and return
back to the city should an account become subject to bankruptcy. The proposed new
contract with LGBS ensures if an account goes to bankruptcy, LGBS will complete the
necessary paperwork, file it as instructed and provide the city a copy. On some
occasions, LGBS may pause collections (generally in Chapter 7 proceedings). Both are
more successful solutions than cancelling the account and returning it back to the city.
Rates were considered to ensure we get the best value possible. Current AllianceOne
rates are tiered as follows: 19% fee for accounts aged less than one year, 24% fee for
accounts one to four years and 29% for accounts aged four years or older. New
proposed rates reflect a 19% fee for accounts aged less than one year and 26% fee for
accounts aged over one year, eliminating a third tier.
All report, data and payment remittance information currently being received from
AllianceOne will be continued and maintained with LGBS.
Based on the above data analysis, staff have determined that it is in the city’s best
interest to enter into a collection service contract with LGBS.

the Work. Consultant shall retain the right to designate the means of performing the
Work covered by this agreement, and the Consultant shall be entitled to employ

REFERRAL OF ACCOUNTS
CITY agrees to refer accounts to CONSULTANT for collection, as CITY deems appropriate, by

necessary to effectuate the services that are subject to this contract.

will be current and accurate, and that no account or account debtor will be subject to any
bankruptcy stay, discharge or proceeding at the time of referral.
CONSULTANT shall use account information provided by CITY for the purposes of account
collection only and shall keep all such information confidential from any third party without
express written authority from CITY.
CONSULTANT will use commercially reasonable efforts to collect said Accounts. CITY and
CONSULTANT recognize that the appropriate level of activity may vary according to the type of
Account, the Account balance and the information available.
CONSULTANT will provide CITY with status reports in the frequency and manner agreed upon by

ACCOUNT CANCELLATION
Accounts identified as being in bankruptcy and/or when the account holder is found to be
deceased, deemed indigent or otherwise unable to pay shall be returned. Upon return of these
accounts, neither party will have any obligation to the other party to this contract with regard to
the returned accounts. CITY recognizes that collection efforts by CONSULTANT at any level, but
particularly efforts involving legal proceeding such as garnishment, will often prompt a debtor to
AGENDA ITEM #6. e)
PAGE 14 OF 18
Agreement for Collection Services
contact CITY and seek to pay directly to CITY only the original amount owed (i.e., without paying
the added collection fees). CITY agrees to exercise caution when recalling accounts with a
payment plan or legal proceedings.
To the extent practicable and unless otherwise agreed, CITY will advise CONSULTANT prior to
recalling any assigned Account. For any Account on which CITY has approved legal action per
paragraph 5 below by CONSULTANT, CITY shall not cancel such Account without first consulting
with CONSULTANT.
III
COMPENSATION AND REMITTANCE
1. Non-COURT Accounts. The CITY shall assess to an account a fee for the CONSULTANT’s
collection fee pursuant to RCW 19.16.500. The fee in an amount equal to 19% of the total sum
due, including accruing interest, from the debtor to CITY shall be assessed to accounts not
previously assigned to another collection agency and aged under one year. A fee in an amount
equal to 26% of the total sum due, including accruing interest, from a debtor to CITY shall be
assessed to accounts previously assigned to another collection agency or aged over one year.
Partial payments shall be pro-rated between the CITY and CONSULTANT in accordance with
these formulas.
By way of example, an account that went delinquent six months ago that has never been
assigned to a collection agency, and with $100 owing to the CITY, shall be assessed a $19
fee. The total owing is now $119. Upon collection of $119, the sum of $100 shall be
returned to the CITY and $19 retained by the CONSULTANT. The CONSULTANT shall
retain 15.97% of the total sum collected ($19 is 15.97% of $119) and remit 84.03% to City
Finance.

2. COURT Accounts.
a. Fees Assessed as Court Costs. COURT shall assess as court costs the fees to be
paid for the CONSULTANT’s collection services, pursuant to RCW 46.63.110(6)(d) and/or
RCW 3.02.045(5). Court costs in an amount equal to 19% of the total sum due, including
accruing interest, from a defendant to COURT shall be assessed to accounts not
previously assigned to another collection agency and aged one year or less. Court costs
in an amount equal to 26% of the total sum due, including accruing interest, from a
defendant to COURT shall be assessed to accounts previously assigned to another
collection agency or aged over one year. Partial payments shall be pro-rated between
COURT and CONSULTANT in accordance with these formulas.
By way of example, an offense found committed six months ago that has never
been assigned to a collection agency, and with $100 owing to COURT, shall be
assessed court costs of $19. The total owing is now $119. Upon collection of
$119, the sum of $100 shall be returned to the COURT and $19 retained by the
FIRM; CONSULTANT shall retain 15.97% of the total sum collected ($19 is 15.97%
of $119), and remit 84.03% to COURT. On a 26% add-on account, CONSULTANT
shall retain 20.63% of the total sum collected ($26 is 20.63% of $126), and remit
79.37% to COURT.
b. Pre-Collect Time-Payment Program. Defendants with accounts not previously
referred to CONSULTANT for collection may qualify for a time-payment program that is
not subject to the percentage fees described in the preceding paragraph. COURT, if it so
desires, will refer defendants to contact CONSULTANT to apply for the program and
establish the monthly payment amounts, under guidelines approved by COURT.
Pursuant to RCW 46.63.110(6)(d) (or comparable statute regarding payment plans), court
costs will be assessed in the amount of $10 for processing an application (successful or
not), and in the amount of $7 per month per defendant accepted into the program.
CONSULTANT will attempt a monthly reminder call 7 to 10 days in advance of payment
due date.
c. Other Payment Plans. The parties recognize that, for an account not meeting the
criteria of the Pre-Collect Time-Payment Program, CONSULTANT may set up a payment
plan if deemed desirable based on the financial circumstances of the defendant or as
otherwise directed by COURT; in which case the account will be subject to the
percentage collection fee described (2) (a) above. In such a case, the percentage fee will
be the CONSULTANT’s compensation, and will be deemed to have been assessed as court
costs under RCW 46.63.110(6)(d) (or comparable statute regarding payment plans).
AGENDA ITEM #6. e)

Agreement for Collection Services
d. General Administrative Order. To effectuate the assessment of court costs for
collection agency services under RCW 46.63.110(6)(d) and RCW 3.02.045(5) (or
comparable statutes should the cited statues be amended), COURT will issue a General
Administrative Order assessing court costs against defendants assigned to collection, pre-
collect time-payment, or other payment plan, such that no assessment need be made in
an individual case file, and addressing any other issues necessary or proper to facilitate
the referral of appropriate cases to CONSULTANT for servicing.
e. Payments to Court Accounts are remitted to:
Renton Municipal Court
Attention: Third Floor
1055 South Grady Way
Renton, WA 98057
The Remittance Advice should include but not be limited to:
1. Name of Debtor
2. City Account Number
3. Break down of date, costs owed, amount collected, commission,
disbursements and balance due.
3. Interest. Unless otherwise directed by CITY, interest shall accrue at 12 percent per
annum, or the highest rate allowed by law on all unpaid amounts, including court costs assessed
for collection agency services; provided that interest shall not be assessed on accounts referred
under the pre-collect time-payment program. CONSULTANT agrees to calculate and add
accrued interest to the outstanding account balance as an administrative function at the
direction and instruction of the CITY. Accrued interest paid by a defendant shall be shared
according to the formula outlined above. For example, in the case of a 19% add-on account
(15.97% retained), the CITY will receive 84.03% of the interest and the CONSULTANT will receive
15.97% of the interest.
4. Advanced Costs. Litigation costs shall be advanced by CONSULTANT on behalf of CITY.
Advanced litigation costs and any court-awarded costs, including attorney fees, shall be retained
by CONSULTANT from first monies received from the debtor, and prior to calculation and

City and Consultant shall cooperate to effect any Administrative Orders or other Court Orders
necessary or prudent to implement this Agreement, including any order necessary to assess
court costs upon assignment of Accounts to collection, to re- assign Accounts to collection after
a bankruptcy proceeding concludes, and to re-assess any court costs discharged in bankruptcy.
IV
CONCURRENT REPRESENTATION/ CONFLICT WAIVER
1. CONSULTANT has specifically advised CITY that CONSULTANT’s concurrent
representation of CITY and other government entities (whether currently represented by
CONSULTANT or those governmental entities who may be represented by CONSULTANT in the
future) against a common debtor constitutes a potential conflict of interest. CONSULTANT has
advised CITY that, provided CITY and all participating entities consent, CONSULTANT intends to
“cross packet” claims owed to all the governmental entities whom CONSULTANT currently
represents and whom CONSULTANT may ultimately represent in the future against a common
debtor. Although all of the governmental entities represented by, or to be represented by,
CONSULTANT have a common interest in the collection of monetary amounts owed by the
common debtor, there is a potential conflict regarding the manner in which any proceeds
collected from the common debtor are to be disbursed among the various governmental entities
represented by CONSULTANT (present and/or future). CONSULTANT proposes, with the consent
of CITY and all participating government entities, to disburse all monetary proceeds recovered
from a common debtor to each of the government entities on an equal-share basis, provided
that the common debtor has not disputed any accounts, in which case, funds will be applied first
to non-disputed accounts. Further, any fees charged and/or recovered by CONSULTANT as
remuneration for the services provided may constitute charges for services provide to CITY
and/or other governmental entities; which although such fees will not exceed the amounts
reflected in the Contract for Professional Services entered between CONSULTANT and CITY, said
amounts may overlap with charges and fees pertaining to other governmental entities.
2. CONSULTANT has specifically advised CITY that as among the similarly represented
governmental entities there is no right to assert the attorney-client privilege as to
communications received by CONSULTANT in connection with this joint representation.
3. CITY acknowledges that it has been fully informed of the nature of any current and/or
prospective conflict of interest which may exist or arise as a result of the common
representation of CITY and other governmental entities by CONSULTANT against common
AGENDA ITEM #6. e)
PAGE 18 OF 18
Agreement for Collection Services
debtors; that CITY has been provided sufficient opportunity to seek the advice of independent
counsel of the CITY’s own choosing; and after all due consultations and considerations, CITY
HEREBY EXPRESSLY WAIVES ANY CURRENT AND/OR PROSPECTIVE CONFLICT OF INTEREST AND
SPECIFICALLY CONSENTS TO FIRM’S REPRESENTATION OF CITY and further directs CONSULTANT
to disburse any payments received from a common debtor to all of the governmental entities
represented by CONSULTANT equally.
V LEGAL ACTION
1. Legal Action. No legal action will be commenced on any Account without written
permission, first obtained, from CITY/CLIENT. Legal action commenced under this agreement
may be in the name of CONSULTANT and not CITY.
2. CONSULTANT will promptly advise CITY if any legal action is contested. CITY will provide
evidence as requested by CONSULTANT to support approved legal action, including providing a
witness or witnesses for live testimony if requested. Unless otherwise agreed, legal costs and
fees will be paid by CONSULTANT and not CITY, and will be recoverable from the debtor where
allowed by applicable law, out of first monies recovered.
VI BANKRUPTCY
1. Where an Account becomes subject to bankruptcy proceedings, CONSULTANT will, at its
option, either:
a. file a claim on behalf of CITY in a Chapter 13 proceeding and provide
documentation to the City account contact, or
b. suspend activity during the bankruptcy proceeding (generally in Chapter 7
proceedings).
2. If CLIENT desires that CONSULTANT file a claim, CONSULTANT will retain the “fee-added"
amount of the Account whether or not that fee is allowed by the bankruptcy court as an
allowable claim (i.e., if the principal obligation is allowed, but the collection fee is not,
CONSULTANT will deduct its fee from the allowed principal claim on a pro- rata basis). After a
bankruptcy discharge order is entered, CITY shall re- assess a Collection Fee to affected Account(
s) that are not discharged, so as to allow CONSULTANT to resume collection efforts.

AXON – RENTON PROFESSIONAL SERVICE AGREEMENT Page 33 of 60
Prior to removing the existing mobile video camera systems, it is both the responsibility of the AGENCY
and the AXON Installer to test the vehicle’s systems’ operation to identify and operate, documenting
any existing component or system failures and in detail, identify which components of the existing
mobile video camera system will be removed by the AXON Installer.
In-Car Hardware/Software Delivery and Installation
On such dates and times mutually agreed upon by the parties, the AGENCY will deliver all vehicles to
an AXON Installer, who will install and configure in each vehicle in accordance with the specifications
detailed in the system’s installation manual and its relevant addendum(s). Applicable in-car hardware
will be installed and configured as defined and validated by the AGENCY during the pre -deployment
discovery process.
If a specified vehicle is unavailable on the date and time agreed upon by the parties, AGENCY will
provide a similar vehicle for the installation process. Delays due to a vehicle, or substitute vehicle, not
being available at agreed upon dates and times may results in additional fees to the AGENCY. If the
AXON Installer determines that a vehicle is not properly prepared for installation (“Not Fleet Ready”),
such as a battery not being properly charged or properly up-fit for in-service, field operations, the issue
shall be reported immediately to the AGENCY for resolution and a date and time for the future
installation shall be agreed upon by the parties.
Upon completion of installation and configuration, AXON will systematically test all installed and
configured in-car hardware and software to ensure that ALL functions of the hardware and software are
fully operational and that any deficiencies are corrected unless otherwise agreed upon by the
AGENCY, installation, configuration, test and the correct of any deficiencies will be completed in each
vehicle accepted for installation.
Prior to installing the Axon Fleet camera systems, it is both the responsibility of the AGENCY and the
AXON Installer to test the vehicle’s existing systems’ operation to identify, document any existing
component or vehicle systems’ failures. Prior to any vehicle up-fitting the AXON Installer will introduce
the system’s components, basic functions, integrations and systems overview along with reference to
AXON approved, AGENCY manuals, guides, portals and videos. It is both the responsibility of the
AGENCY and the AXON Installer to agree on placement of each component, the antenna(s),
integration recording trigger sources and customer preferred power, ground and ignition sources prior
to permanent or temporary installation of an Axon Fleet camera solution in each vehicle type.
Agreed placement will be documented by the AXON Installer.
AXON welcomes up to 5 persons per system operation training session per day, and unless otherwise
agreed upon by the AGENCY, the first vehicle will be used for an installation training demonstration.
The second vehicle will be used for an assisted installation training demonstration. The installation
training session is customary to any AXON Fleet installation service regardless of who performs the
continued Axon Fleet system installations.
The customary training session does not ‘certify’ a non-AXON Installer, customer-employed Installer or
customer 3rd party Installer, since the AXON Fleet products does not offer an Installer certification
program. Any work performed by non-AXON Installer, customer-employed Installer or customer 3rd
party Installer is not warrantied by AXON, and AXON is not liable for any damage to the vehicle and its
existing systems and AXON Fleet hardware.

Service Offerings (Service Offerings) under the MSPA.
1 Definitions.
“Downtime” are periods of time, measured in minutes, in which the Service Offering is Unavailable to
the Agency. Downtime does not include Scheduled Downtime and does not include Unavailability of
the Service Offering due to limitations described in Exclusions.
“Incident” a period of time in which the Agency experiences Downtime.
“Maximum Available Minutes” is the total accumulated minutes during a Service Month for the
Service Offering.
“Monthly Uptime Percentage” is (Maximum Available Minutes - Downtime) / Maximum Available
Minutes * 100.
“Scheduled Downtime” are periods of time, measured in minutes, in which the Service Offering is
unavailable to the Agency and in which the period of time falls within scheduled routine maintenance
or planned maintenance timeframes.
“Service Month” is a calendar month at Coordinated Universal Time (UTC).
“Unavailable” and “Unavailability” is when the Service Offering does not allow for the upload of
evidence files, viewing of evidence files or interactive login by an end-user.
2 Service Level Objective. Axon will use commercially reasonable efforts to make the Service Offerings
available 99.99% of the time.
3 Guaranteed Service Level and Credits. If Axon fails to make the Service Offering available to the
defined Monthly Uptime Percentage availability levels, the Agency may be entitled to Service Credits.
Service Credits are awarded as days of Service Offering usage added to the end of the Service
Offerings subscription term at no charge to the Agency.
Monthly Uptime Percentage Service Credit in Days
Less than 99.9% 3
Less than 99.0% 7
4 Requesting Service Credits. In order for Axon to consider a claim for Service Credits, the Agency
must submit the claim to Axon’s customer support, including all information necessary for Axon to
validate the claim, including but not limited to: (i) a detailed description of the Incident; (ii) information
regarding the time and duration of the Incident; (iii) the number and location(s) of affected users (if
applicable); and (iv) descriptions of your attempts to resolve the Incident at the time of occurrence.
AGENDA ITEM #6. f)
AXON – RENTON PROFESSIONAL SERVICE AGREEMENT Page 58 of 60
4.1 Axon must receive the claim within one month of the end of the month in which the Incident
that is the subject of the claim occurred. For example, if the Incident occurred on February 12th, Axon
must receive the claim and all required information by March 31st.
4.2 Axon will evaluate all information reasonably available to Axon and make a good faith
determination of whether a Service Credit is owed. Axon will use commercially reasonable efforts to
process claims during the subsequent month and within forty five (45) days of receipt. The Agency
must be in compliance with all Axon agreements in order to be eligible for a Service Credit. If Axon
determines that a Service Credit is owed to the Agency, Axon will apply the Service Credit to the end
of the Agency’s Service Offering subscription term. Service Credits may not be exchanged for or
converted to monetary amounts.
5 Service Maintenance. Maintenance will take place according to Axon’s prevailing Maintenance
Schedule, which may be found at: https://www.axon.com/trust/maintenance. Maintenance periods
may periodically result in the Service Offerings being Unavailable to the Agency. Downtime falling
within Scheduled Routine or Planned maintenance is Scheduled Downtime and is not eligible for
Service Credits
Emergency maintenance may have less than a 24-hour notification period. Emergency maintenance
may be performed at any time, with or without notice as deemed necessary by Axon. Emergency
maintenance falling outside Scheduled Routine or Planned maintenance is eligible for Service
Credits
6 Exclusions. The Service Commitment does not apply to any unavailability, suspension or termination
of the Service Offerings, or any other Evidence.com performance issues: (a) caused by factors outside
of Axon’s reasonable control, including any force majeure event, terrorism, sabotage, virus attacks, or
Internet access or related problems beyond the demarcation point of the Service Offerings (including
Domain Name Server issues outside Axon’s direct control); (b) that result from any actions or inactions
of the Agency or any third party; (c) that result from the Agency’s communication delays, including
wrong, bad or missing data, improperly formatted, organized or transmitted data received, or any
other data issues related to the communication or data received from or through the Agency; (d) that
result from Agency equipment, software or other technology and/or third party equipment, software
or other technology (other than third party equipment within Axon’s direct control); (e) that result
from any maintenance as provided for pursuant to this SLA; or (f) arising from Axon’s suspension and

Exhibit G – Post Termination Data Migration
Use partner APIs (no fee)
• Axon will provide all Partner API Documentation to facilitate the task and provide ample time
for you to migrate your data at no cost. The Partner API can be used to integrate agency
Evidence.com data with other systems including download to an on-premise storage solution.
• There are partner APIs available to export information for:
o groups
o users
o cases
o evidence
o devices
o reports
o retention categories
o custom fields
• Detailed documentation can be found here:
• The agency can access the developer forum via their MyAxon.com account. The Axon Partner
API Reference Manual is available there as a link, and they can query the forum for help if they
get stuck.
2. Customer can manually export from Evidence.com (no fee)
• this is not recommended because it is a very manual and tedious process
• Evidence.com provides the ability to manually download Digital Media Evidence at any time
and will be available at no cost to the Agency. All digital evidence stored on the Evidence.com
platform is owned by Agency and can be exported at any time. This process can be facilitated in
a number of ways including the bulk export feature. If your agency wishes to extract all data
stored in the application, data is exported in the format it was recorded (MP4 for Axon captured
assets).
3. Contract Axon through channel migration
• An Axon Field Engineer will remotely access your network and install a windows client to
facilitate the transfer directly from your Evidence.com to local storage on your network. An
Axon Engineer (FDE) then executes a SHA-256 hash of the comprehensive data set which is
later verified upon completing the migration to the desired location. This data is structured such
that it can then be parsed and ingested into another system.
• Depending on your agency’s needs, this service can be run in a single bulk export or it can be
filtered and run multiple times to export in phases, for example exporting evidence a year at a
time. This will be scoped with the customer prior to initiating the service and will be priced at a
daily rate for field engineering service.
• Each run of the service will generate:
o Selected evidence files in its original format
o Evidence.com maintains the original file uploaded
AGENDA ITEM #6. f)
AXON – RENTON PROFESSIONAL SERVICE AGREEMENT Page 60 of 60
o Evidence audit logs in .pdf format
o Evidence.xml
o This is a delimited format detailing all of the asset metadata that can be used to
o associate metadata to its exported asset
o Evidence Hashes.csv
o This is a delimited formation outlining the SHA-256 checksum of each asset to
o verify authenticity
o Hash Verification.csv
o This is a log of the export performed, and validating that hash verification
o performed after export is validating the hash checksums before and after export
o match
• After the export, your agency can review those logs, validate that all requested evidence has been
exported from your Evidence.com instance and maintain all logs for your reference. At this time,
the agency accepts custody of the data and Axon is no longer responsible for future actions as
they relate to chain of custody.

City Council Regular Meeting - 18 Oct 2021
SUBJECT/TITLE: Rail Corridor Improvements and Funding Agreement with BNSF
Railway Company for Park Avenue North Extension Project
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Refer to Finance Committee
DEPARTMENT: Public Works Transportation Systems Division
STAFF CONTACT: Bob Hanson, Transportation Design Manager
EXT.: x7223
FISCAL IMPACT SUMMARY:
Funding for this agreement in the amount of $1,300,000 is available from Local Revitalization Fund (LRF)
Bonds and contributions from Southport West, LLC, through the Park Avenue North Extension and Private
Road Agreement, executed December 12, 2018. There is sufficient funding in the project budget to cover the
agreement.
SUMMARY OF ACTION:
This agreement provides safety mitigation required for the addition of a proposed at -grade crossing for the
Park Avenue N Extension Project. More specifically it is a portion of the cost to cure for the permanent
easement for the crossing of the BNSF railroad at Park Avenue N. Currently, as many as 30 railroad cars are
attached to every train destined for the Boeing plant. These cars are stored on a siding between N Eighth
Street and Lake Washington Boulevard N. This Agreement is for reconstruction of a rai lroad siding in the
vicinity of the Black River to provide space for railroad car storage, eliminating the need to run the additional
cars through the City with every train. This will decrease the size of the trains running through downtown,
reduce traffic delays, and lower the potential for automobile/train collisions.

SECTION IV. Subsection 4‐2‐020.T of the Renton Municipal Code is amended as shown
below. All other provisions in 4‐2‐020 remain in effect and unchanged, except as revised in
SECTION V of this ordinance.
T. URBAN CENTER‐1 (UC‐1):
The Urban Center‐1 Zone (UC‐1) is established to provide an area for
pedestrian‐scale urban mixed‐use development that supports the residential and
employment goals of Renton’s Urban Center. The UC‐1 Zone is intended to attract
a wide range of office, technology, commercial, and residential uses. The overall
mix and intensity of uses within both zones will develop over time. Consequently,
decisions made in early phases of redevelopment will need to take into
consideration the potential for further infill and intensification of uses. The overall
mix and intensity of uses is intended to create an urban rather than suburban
character. The form of development is expected to use urban development

standards and therefore, setbacks, heights, landscaping, parking, and design
standards are to be urban in scale and configured in a layout utilizing the street
system to create a human‐scale, pedestrian‐oriented new center. Uses that
support urban center development are allowed. Development is expected to
include amenities such as gateways, water access, and open space. High‐quality
development is anticipated, encompassing a mix of residential neighborhoods,
shopping, and employment districts and public facilities. The designation is also
intended to allow continuation of airplane manufacturing and accessory airplane
manufacturing uses, as land area formerly occupied by those uses is transformed
to combinations of retail, service, office, residential, and civic uses.
SECTION V. Subsection 4‐2‐020.T of the Renton Municipal Code is amended to add a
new subsection 4‐2‐020.U, Urban Center – 2 (UC‐2), to read as shown below. All other provisions
in 4‐2‐020 remain in effect and unchanged, except as revised in SECTION IV of this ordinance.
U. URBAN CENTER‐2 (UC‐2):
The Urban Center‐2 Zone (UC‐2) is established to provide a similar built
environment as UC‐1 and also supports the residential and employment goals of
Renton’s Urban Center, but to a lesser degree than UC‐1 due to differing
characteristics of the geography, which limit the scale of commercial enterprise.
The overall mix and intensity of uses is intended to create an urban rather than
suburban character. The form of development is expected to use urban
development standards and therefore setbacks, heights, landscaping, parking,
and design standards are to be urban in scale and configured in a layout utilizing
