Purpose of Interlocal Agreement. The purpose of this Agreement is to provide a single, efficient land use, environmental, and building permit review and decision - making process using one set of development regulations in order to avoid the inherent uncertainty of two separate review processes and concomitant waste of public and private resources that would serve only to increase costs for both cities, the applicant, and the general public. This Agreement is meant to assure the applicant that upon government approval of the Tukwila Sounder Station project as provided for in this Agreement, the applicant may proceed with development of the project in reliance upon that approval. 2. Review and Decision - Making Process for Building Permits, Environmental Permits, and Land Use Applications and Approvals Needed for the Sound Transit Platform Project. 2.1 Tukwila shall be solely responsible for receiving and processing any and all building- related permits, environmental permits or applications, and land use applications for the Tukwila Sounder Station pursuant to the Tukwila Municipal Code ( "TMC "). 2.2 For applications that require public notice, Tukwila must include Renton on the list of agencies who will receive notice. Response to the notice will be required for Renton to be a party of record. 2.3 For the purposes of this Agreement, building- related permits include, but are not limited to building permits, electrical, plumbing and mechanical permits, fire system/fire sprinkler permits, and clearing and grading permits. 2.4 Tukwila's processing and review of building- related permits, environmental permits, and land use applications shall include but not be limited to rendering decisions to approve, condition, or deny such applications; conducting inspections; issuing correction notices, permit extensions and completion of extensions; approve final construction, and evaluating compliance with approved conditions. 2.5 Appeals of any decisions by Tukwila shall be processed by Tukwila pursuant to applicable Tukwila Municipal Code provisions. 3. Duration and Termination. The initial term of this Agreement shall begin upon written execution by both parties and will continue in effect so long as neither party terminates. Either party may terminate this Agreement by providing written notice of such intent to terminate at least ninety (90) days prior to the termination date. Tukwila shall provide Renton with a copy of files and records of all land use, environmental, and building permit applications processed under this Agreement upon termination of this Agreement.
