WORKSHOP ITEMS – NO ACTION WAS TAKEN
Title VI Annual Accomplishments, Goals Report and Plan Assurances Public Works Director Jim Kelly reviewed 2020 Title VI Accomplishments and Goals Report, with Letter of Intent to Comply with WSDOT Title IV Plan and USDOT Standard Title VI/Non-Discrimination Assurances. Compliance with federal non-discrimination policies and laws are required for the City to receive federal transportation funding. In 2020, the City of Arlington received federal funding for transportation projects, and has completed the required federal Accomplishments & Goals Report. Since WSDOT is Arlington’s Certifying Agency, we comply with the WSDOT Title VI Plan. Annually, we have to certify to WSDOT that we will continue to comply with their Title VI Plan, and also certify to the federal government that we will comply with the USDOT Standard Title VI/Non-Discrimination Assurances. Discussion followed with Mr. Kelly answering Council questions.

Resolution Declaring an Emergency with the Water Main Repair at Washington
Trucking Public Works Director Jim Kelly reviewed an Emergency Declaration for the Washington Trucking water main repair and purchase of necessary pipe and fittings from Ferguson Waterworks.
In 2019, a significant leak was discovered in an Asbestos Concrete (AC) water main. Staff was able to isolate the leak by shutting off valves which isolated a 1,725-foot section of AC water main. The isolation of this section of pipe placed the Washington Trucking facility at water main “dead end” lacking the redundancy needed for secure fire protection. Due to 2020 COVID-19 staffing and contracting issues, staff was not able to perform the necessary repairs. In 2021, repair was further delayed due to supply chain issues associated with the COVID-19 pandemic. Staff was recently notified by Ferguson Waterworks that there was sufficient water main piping not needed for a construction project and available for purchase on a first come-first served basis. A purchase order was issued to secure this pipe, and we are now requesting an emergency declaration in order to procure the materials from Ferguson Waterworks in order to fix the problem. Discussion followed with Mr. Kelly answering Council questions.
Fire District 21 Reimbursement Agreement Public Works Director Jim Kelly reviewed the installation of a water main by Fire District 21, and requested the establishment of a reimbursement agreement, as allowed by Arlington Municipal Code 13.24 to recover costs for installing the water main. To better serve the Arlington community, Fire District 21 is constructing a new fire station on McElroy Road. The new fire station is located within the City of Arlington’s water service area and the Fire District will be extending a water main to serve the new fire station. The minimum water main size for this extension is an 8-inch pipe, however the Arlington Water Utility is paying material costs to upsize the water main to a 12-inch pipe. The Fire District has approved plans and an executed Utility Extension Agreement; they are now requesting City Council approval to develop a reimbursement area as allowed by AMC 13.24 to recover some of the construction costs for this water main extension. Fire District engineers have worked with the City Engineer to develop a reimbursement area consisting of 21 properties that would benefit from this water main extension and have developed a reimbursement fee to be shared among the 21 properties based on the project bid amount, less $100,000.00 cost contribution by the Fire District and $92,925.00 material cost payment by the Arlington Water Utility. The reimbursement amount is $13,863.00 and is only payable if the benefiting property wants to connect to the City’s potable water system. The City Engineer has determined that the necessary information for establishment of a Reimbursement Agreement per AMC 13.24 has been submitted and is recommending the Council approve of establishing a reimbursement agreement for the Fire District 21 McElroy Road water main extension project.

WEDFA Bond Resolution Community and Economic Development Director Marc Hayes reviewed the Washington Economic Development Finance Authority (WEDFA) Economic Development Revenue Bonds for Mura Cascade, ELP, LLC Project. Mura Cascade ELP, LLC (“Mura”) is planning to construct, install, and operate a facility that extracts high grade and valuable chemicals (oils, waxes and naphtha), through a proprietary process, converting approximately 130,000 tons per year, of plastic waste feedstock. The facility is to be located on Lots 5, 6 and 7 in the Gayteway Business Park, adjacent to and immediately east of 7301 197th Pl NE in Arlington. Mura intends to finance this project through the use of nonrecourse economic development revenue bonds issued by the Washington Economic Development Finance Authority (WEDFA). The only purpose of this resolution is to approve Mura Cascade’s use of WEDFA financing for this project. It does not supplement or replace any portion of the normal permitting process. There is no liability against the City of Arlington created by issuance of WEDFA's bonds or adoption of this resolution. It is the policy of WEDFA only to issue bonds in support of projects which would be welcomed by the local community. As part of the issuance process, therefore, it would like the City of Arlington City Council, as the planning jurisdiction, to consider passage of a Planning Jurisdiction Approval Resolution. Discussion followed with Mr. Hayes answering Council questions.
Land Acknowledgement Statement City Administrator Paul Ellis reviewed Councilmember Mike Hopson’s request to read aloud a land acknowledgement statement at City Council meetings. At the October 11, 2021 Council meeting, Councilmember Hopson requested that the Council read a land acknowledgement at each Council meeting. Council requested we contact the Stillaguamish Tribe of Indians to get their feedback. Speaking to the current and former Tribal Chair, they concurred that the statement from the City is appreciated. They also stated their desire for the acknowledgement to create more unity than division. The Tribe suggested an annual proclamation might be a better more unifying approach to the acknowledgement. Having a plaque engraved and on display in Council chambers would be an additional way to honor the Tribe. The City of Arlington and Stillaguamish Tribe of Indians have had a government-to-government relationship for many years. The two organizations work well together, and believe it is important that we mutually respect each other. Shawn Yanity, from the Stillaguamish Tribe was present, and spoke of the mutual respect the Tribe and the City of Arlington governments have. He stated that it is an important partnership, and the two governments have accomplished a lot together over the years. Discussion followed.

contractors/consultants, whether such programs and activities are federally
assisted or not (Public Law 100259 [S.557] March 22, 1988).

activities, collecting data, preparing reports (including Appendix 28.93) and other

City of Arlington Council Agenda Bill Item: NB #1 Attachment C COUNCIL MEETING DATE: November 15, 2021 SUBJECT: Resolution Declaring an Emergency with the water main repair at Washington Trucking ATTACHMENTS: Resolution Declaring an Emergency and Waiving Competitive Bidding Requirements Quote from Ferguson Waterworks for pipe and fittings needed for repair DEPARTMENT OF ORIGIN Public Works; Jim Kelly, Director 360-403-3505 EXPENDITURES REQUESTED: $106,518.24 BUDGET CATEGORY: Water Capital Budget – Distribution Repairs BUDGETED AMOUNT: $150,000.00 LEGAL REVIEW: DESCRIPTION: Emergency Declaration for the Washington Trucking (6615 172nd St) water main repair, and purchase of necessary pipe and fittings from Ferguson Waterworks. HISTORY: In 2019, a significant leak was discovered in an Asbestos Concrete (AC) water main. Staff was able to isolate the leak by shutting off valves which isolated a 1,725-foot section of AC water main. The isolation of this section of pipe placed the Washington Trucking facility at water main “dead end” lacking the redundancy needed for secure fire protection. Due to 2020 COVID-19 staffing and contracting issues, staff was not able to perform the necessary repairs. In 2021, repair was further delayed due to supply chain issues associated with the COVID-19 pandemic. Staff was recently notified by Ferguson Waterworks that there was sufficient water main piping not needed for a construction project and available for purchase on a first come-first served basis. A purchase order
I move to approve the resolution declaring an emergency for water main repair work, waiving competitive bidding requirements, and authorizing the purchase of necessary materials in the amount of $106,518.24 from Ferguson Waterworks, and authorize the Mayor to sign the resolution.
RESOLUTION NO. 2021–XXX
A RESOLUTION DECLARING AN EMERGENCY, AND WAIVING COMPETITIVE BIDDING
REQUIREMENTS DUE TO A BREAK IN THE WASHINGTON TRUCKING WATER MAIN
WHEREAS, a break in the City of Arlington’s water main near the Washington Trucking
facility resulted in a water main “dead end” eliminating the redundancy needed for fire
protection service to the Washington Trucking facility; and
WHEREAS, the water main leak has occurred in an asbestos concrete pipe that is in
extremely poor condition and not suitable for repair; and
WHEREAS, the City’s investigation has concluded that a new water main extension will
eliminate the “dead end” and restore redundant fire service protection to the area near the
Washington Trucking facility; and
WHEREAS, we are in a time of material shortages due supply chain issues caused by the
COVID-19 pandemic; and
WHEREAS, Ferguson Waterworks has the necessary water main materials in stock for
the City to facilitate the necessary repairs;
NOW, THEREFORE, the City Council of the City of Arlington Washington does hereby
resolve as follows:
1. The City Council finds an emergency exists with a break in the City’s water main
impacting fire service protection to a City business, which presents a real and
immediate threat to the proper performance of essential functions if immediate

HISTORY: To better serve the District residents, Fire District 21 is constructing a new fire station on McElroy Road. The new fire station is located within the City of Arlington’s water service area and the Fire District will be extending a water main to serve the new fire station. The minimum water main size for this extension is an 8-inch pipe, however the Arlington Water Utility is paying material costs to upsize the water main to a 12-inch pipe. The Fire District has approved plans and an executed Utility Extension Agreement; they are now requesting City Council approval to develop a reimbursement area as allowed by AMC 13.24 to recover some of the construction costs for this water main extension. Fire District engineers have worked with the City Engineer to develop a reimbursement area consisting of 21 properties that would benefit from this water main extension and have developed a reimbursement fee to be shared among the 21 properties based on the project bid amount, less $100,000.00 cost contribution by the Fire District and $92,925.00 material cost payment by the Arlington Water Utility. The reimbursement amount is $13,863.00 and is only payable if the benefiting property wants to connect to the City’s potable water system.
City of Arlington Council Agenda Bill Item: NB #2 Attachment D The City Attorney has worked with the Fire District 21 attorney on the Utility Reimbursement which identifies the benefiting properties allowed to connect to the new water main following payment of appropriate reimbursement fee and the City of Arlington water connection fees. No changes to this agreement will be permitted, including changes to the benefiting area and properties, without approval by the City of Arlington and Fire District 21. The City Engineer has determined that the necessary information for establishment of a Reimbursement Agreement per AMC 13.24 has been submitted and is recommending the Council approve of
I move to accept the Reimbursement Agreement application for the Fire District 21 McElroy Road Water Main Extension project and authorize staff to move forward with the process to establish a Reimbursement Agreement for this project.

Re: Notification of Pending Utility Reimbursement Agreement
Dear Property Owner,
The Arlington City Council is considering a request to establish a Utility Reimbursement Agreement that
may impact your property. As a property owner within the Utility Reimbursement Assessment Area whose
preliminary boundaries are enclosed with this notice, you or your heirs and assigns may be obligated to pay
under certain circumstances, a pro rata share of construction and contract administration costs of a certain
water or sewer utility improvement project. The proposed amount of such pro rata share or assessment is
also enclosed with this notice. You, or your heirs and assigns, may have to pay such share, if any
development permits are issued to connect your property to said water or sewer improvement within
twenty (20) years of the date the agreement establishing such area is recorded with the Snohomish County
Auditor. After such agreement is recorded it shall be binding on all owners of record within the
reimbursement area who are not a party to the contract.
Dated: _ _.
Subsequent to the recording of a Utility Reimbursement Agreement the city shall not, during the term of a
reimbursement agreement, permit connection of any property within the reimbursement area to any sewer or
water facility constructed pursuant to the reimbursement agreement, unless the share of the costs of such
facilities required by the recorded agreement is first paid to the city in the amount of $13,863.
Comments shall be received within twenty (20) days of the date above and directed to Ryan Morrison at
utilities@arlingtonwa.gov or mailed to 154 W. Cox Street, Arlington, WA 98223. For further information, view

Re: Washington Economic Development Finance Authority Economic Development Revenue Bonds:
Mura Cascade ELP, LLC Project
Dear Mayor Tolbert:
Mura Cascade ELP, LLC (“Mura”) is planning to construct, install, and operate a chemical manufacturing
plant using plastic waste feedstock, to be located in Lots 5, 6 and 7 in the Gayteway Business Park adjacent
to and immediately east of 7301 197th Pl NE in Arlington. Mura intends to finance this project through
the use of nonrecourse economic development revenue bonds issued by the Washington Economic
Development Finance Authority (WEDFA).
It is the policy of WEDFA only to issue bonds in support of projects which would be welcomed by the local
community. As part of the issuance process, therefore, we would like the City of Arlington City Council,
as the planning jurisdiction, to consider passage of a Planning Jurisdiction Approval Resolution, in the form
substantially as attached.
We wish to emphasize that the only purpose of this resolution is to approve Mura Cascade’s use of WEDFA
financing for this project. It does not supplement or replace any portion of the normal permitting process.
There is no liability against the City of Arlington created by issuance of WEDFA's bonds or adoption of this
resolution.
We are planning to issue the bonds in the upcoming months. It would greatly assist our timing if the City
Council could consider this approval at the November 1st meeting; or, if November 1st is not possible, at
the November 15th Council meeting. I would appreciate it if your office could send me a copy of the
approved resolution should the City Council look on our request favorably.
Jon Cozens of Mura would be happy to provide you with any further information that you might find
helpful regarding the project. His telephone number is (908) 229-1370. Rodney Wendt, Executive
Director of WEDFA, would also be happy to attend the City Council meeting to answer questions from the
Council.
Please let me know how we can work together to facilitate this process. If you have any questions, please
do not hesitate to give me a call. My telephone number is 206-287-4447, and I can also be reached by
email at molly.abbey@wshfc.org.
Sincerely yours,

Monday, October 11th, is traditionally recognized as Columbus Day, and now also as Indigenous Peoples
Day. I propose that from this date forward the Arlington City Council begins its meetings with both the
Pledge of Allegiance and a statement of Land Acknowledgement.
A land acknowledgement shares a commitment to honoring Native communities, educates all
within a community in local history, and can demonstrate a sustained commitment to building
authentic community relationships to advance equity for all.
By honoring those who inhabited the land before us, we help to build understanding around the
history of our land and its indigenous people, as well as set the tone for honoring all people who
have been historically marginalized or underserved.
Dr. Chris Sweating, Arlington Public Schools
Statement of Land Acknowledgement
We honor the first peoples of these lands by acknowledging that the area in which we gather is within
the traditional territory of the Stillaguamish Tribe of Indians. The Stillaguamish people have inhabited
these lands and waters since time immemorial and their ancestors have remained in this territory to this
day. The Stillaguamish people have continued to practice the traditional way of their ancestors of
fishing, hunting, and gathering. The Stillaguamish Tribe has had these lands and cultural traditions
passed on to them by their ancestors who believed that everything has a spirit and that they are
caretakers of these lands and waters.
MEMO City of Arlington Administration
To: Paul Ellis, City Administrator
From: Barb Tolbert, Mayor
Date: November 3, 2021
Subject: Land Acknowledgement
At the October 11, 2021 Council meeting, Councilmember Hopson requested that the Council
read a land acknowledgement at each Council meeting. Council requested we contact the
Stillaguamish tribe to get their feedback.
Speaking to the current and former Tribal Chair, they concurred that the statement from the
City is appreciated. They also stated their desire for the acknowledgement to create more unity
than division. The Tribe suggested an annual proclamation might be a better more unifying
approach to the acknowledgement.
They thought it would be a nice recognition because the lands of Arlington were their
homeland. In our conversation, they recognized the best way to honor the territory, villages
and gravesites, as well as the treaty, is to continue to work with them in our government-to-
government relationship, and educate the public on the Tribes story. It would be advisable to
highlight how much we do together, and to show we are a great community, and that this area
is all of our homeland now. We can be a strong community by knowing and respecting each
other. Having a plaque engraved and on display in Council chambers would be an additional
way to honor the Tribe.
With those conversations in mind, here is a sample of a land acknowledgement proclamation
that honors the conversations:
We honor the first peoples of these lands by acknowledging that the area in which we gather is
within the traditional territory of the Stillaguamish Tribe of Indians. The Stillaguamish people
have inhabited these lands and waters since time immemorial, and their ancestors remain in
this territory to this day. The Stillaguamish Tribe have held these lands and have cultural
traditions passed on to them by their ancestors, who believed they are caretakers of lands and
waters. The Stillaguamish continue to be leading contributors to the areas natural resource
preservation, social outreach programs, and are active contributors to building Arlington’s
future.
PROCLAMATION
We honor the first peoples of these lands by acknowledging that the area in which we gather is within the traditional territory of the Stillaguamish Tribe of Indians. The Stillaguamish people have inhabited these lands and waters since time immemorial, and their ancestors remain in this territory to this day. The Stillaguamish Tribe have held these lands and have cultural traditions passed on to them by their ancestors, who believed they are caretakers of lands and waters. The Stillaguamish Tribe continues to be leading contributors to the areas natural resource preservation, social outreach programs, and are active contributors to building Arlington’s future. NOW, THEREFORE, Barbara Tolbert, Mayor of Arlington, does hereby proclaim October 10, 2022 as
INDIGENOUS PEOPLES DAY And encourages all residents to recognize the Stillaguamish Tribe of Indians as the original inhabitants of Arlington. _________________________________ ____________________ Barbara Tolbert, Mayor Date
