1. This Memorandum of Understanding (MOU)represents a mutual understanding
between the City of Renton("the City") and King County("the County") for the
purpose of allowing the City to use and access fiber from the County-owned fiber
optic cable located along 140th Avenue/Way SE from SR169 to SE Petrovitsky Road
and for the purpose of clarifying the ownership and access of the fiber on SE
Petrovitsky Road between SR 167 and East Renton City limits at about 134th Avenue
SE.
2. Through recently approved annexations,the City has acquired a traffic signal at 140th
Way SE and SE 158th Street from the County and will be acquiring a number of
additional traffic signals from the State located along State Route 169.
3. The County understands that the City has a long term goal to interconnect and have
central control of the traffic signals along the SR169 corridor from I-405 to 154th
Place SE. The County further understands that when the Fairwood area is annexed,
the City intends to centrally control and synchronize the signals along the 140th
Way/140th Avenue SE corridor that it will acquire in the annexation process.
4. In the first step of the City's long term plan, the City has a project to interconnect the
signal at SR169 andl40th Way SE and the signal at SR169 andl3lst Avenue SE. As
part of this project,the County understands that the City will need the following:
a. Joint access with King County to the six (6) fibers (identified on
Attachment A) on 140th Way SE that connects the signal at SE 158th
Street to the splice cabinet at 140th Avenue SE and SE Petrovitsky Road
to allow the City to connect the SE 158th Street signal back to the Renton
TMC;
b. A patch in the splice cabinet to connect the six(6) fibers on 140th Way SE
to the City's Trans-Valley fibers running along SE Petrovitsky Road to the
City's Traffic Management Center(TMC);
c. Access to six(6)additional fibers in the 48-count fiber optic cable on
140th Ave/Way SE between Petrovitsky Road and SR 169;
d. Terminate the six(6) additional fibers in the splice cabinet at 140th
Avenue SE and SE Petrovitsky Road as necessary;
e. Perform a mid-sheath splice in the 48-count fiber on 140th Way SE at SR
169 in the hand hole adjacent to the signal control cabinet on the north
side of the highway in order to connect the six(6)fibers to a new facility
to be installed to that hand hole; and
f. Access into the splice cabinet at SE Petrovitsky Road and 140th Ave/Way
SE to install a new fiber optic cable into and terminate six (6) fibers in the
splice cabinet and to patch these fiber cables to the 6 fibers in the 48 count
cable on 140th Ave/Way.
5. The City understands that it is responsible for all costs related to the City project and
in accomplishing the City's long term plan and that the County has no financial
responsibilities with regards to the City project(s) described in this MOU. All
necessary permits will be obtained by the City at the City's cost.
6. The City further understands that the County will retain ownership of twelve strands
of fiber along 140thAve/Way SE, including the section of 140th Way SE that has
been recently annexed by the City,just as the County retains ownership of twelve
strands of fiber along Petrovitsky Road per the Trans-Valley ITS agreement for TSC
Channel 4 and the Spare King County fiber per Attachment A of this MOU. When the
Fairwood area that includes 140th Ave/Way is annexed into the City,the County will retain
ownership of twelve out of forty-eight strands of fiber along 140th Ave/Way.
7. The County understands that the 12 strands of fiber it owns along Petrovitsky Road
between the east City limits at about 134th Avenue SE and the fiber optic
communication cabinet at SR 167 is now in the City as a result of the Benson Hill
approved annexation. This fiber was installed by the County as part of the County's
Trans-Valley ITS project.
a. The City understands that the County currently utilizes this fiber for
communication between County signals and cameras along Petrovitsky
Road and 140th Ave/Way SE and King County Traffic Control Center
(KCTCC) in downtown Seattle.
b. The City understands that the County must maintain communication
between the County equipment and the KCTCC.
c. The City understands that the County requires access to fiber optic cable
through the City to maintain communication with existing and future
County signals and ITS equipment similarly to the City requiring access to
fiber optic cable located in unincorporated King County for the City's
purposes.
8. It is further understood that the City and the County intend to negotiate a fiber
maintenance agreement("Agreement")to enable both parties to make the most
efficient use of the fiber optic cable and to outline the long term responsibilities of
each party.
