LEGAL REVIEW:
DESCRIPTION:
On January 19, 2016, a panel interviewed three candidates for the two open Airport
Commissioner positions. William Jensen and Austin DeFreece were selected as the top two
finalists. The panel was impressed with all three candidates. The remaining candidate, Dary
Finck, is eligible to be interviewed for the third Commission vacancy that will occur in March.
The Panel believes the qualifications of these candidates as well as the passion they expressed
for aviation and serving the public will make them excellent commissioners. As the Airport
Commissioners serve alternating two year terms, the Panel would like William Jensen to fill
the empty position that expires in 2018 and Austin DeFreece to fill the position that expires in
2017. All commissioners are eli ible for additional a ointments at the end of their terms.
HISTORY:
2015 and early 2016 saw the resignation of two commissioners and a seat vacated by a
commissioner that is now on the City Council. We learned at the January Commission
meeting that A.J. Chase will be resigning her position as chair effective March 31st. Ms. Chase
served 11 years on the Commission and she will be sorely missed. We will be conducting
interviews in March to fill her position as well. Although we will miss the experience and
selfless public service these commissioners brought to the table, we look forward to new our
new commissioners and the ideas and energy they bring with them.
ALTERNATIVES
Reject panel’s recommendations.

Community & Economic Development lease with the Arlington Municipal Airport

DEPARTMENT OF ORIGIN

EXPENDITURES REQUESTED: Legal
BUDGET CATEGORY: Professional Services
LEGAL REVIEW:
DESCRIPTION:
In December 2015 the Airport Commission approved a lease between the City of Arlington
Community & Economic Development Department (CED) and the Arlington Municipal Airport.
According to City policy, the Arlington City Council must also vote to approve this lease as it
becomes a General Fund line item.
HISTORY:
One of the 2014 state audit items was the use by CED of office space at the airport without
compensating the airport for this use. The City Administrator and Finance Director crafted a
Memorandum of Understanding for this use and paid the airport for this use for the years 2014
and 2015. To memorialize this agreement in the proper format, airport and city legal crafted a
lease for the use of 2,000 square feet of the vacant offices adjoining the airport office (old WSDOT
Aviation offices.) The rent for this lease is $19,200 per year.
ALTERNATIVES
Table the approval of the lease until a later date.
RECOMMENDED MOTION:
Workshop; discussion only. At the next Council meeting, the proposed motion will be, “I move
to approve the lease between the Arlington Municipal Airport and Community & Economic
Development and authorize the Mayor to sign it”.

SCOPE OF WORK
City of Arlington
Sewer System Flow Monitoring Plan
Lift Station 2 Rehabilitation
January 2016
BACKGROUND
RH2 Engineering, Inc., (RH2) completed the City of Arlington’s (City) Sewer Comprehensive Plan in 2014.
The plan recognizes 10- and 20-year horizons of sewer system buildout. The City’s Glen Eagle Basin is
expected to have significant growth, and it appears that this growth cannot be accommodated by Lift
Station 2 (LS2) in its present condition. The City has requested RH2 to accomplish the following:
1. Provide a flow monitoring plan to better estimate growth impacts in the sewer system. This step
includes updating the City’s Sewer System Model and recommending locations for up to six (6)
flow meters to identify existing collection system flow rates and capacities. This review will
focus on the City’s south end including the Glen Eagle Basin. This review will also include an
evaluation of force main flows utilizing the existing force main and compare to pump sizing.
2. Evaluate pumping scenarios that could reduce project costs. Options to review will include
pump sizing and control to continue using the existing force main for an extended period,
evaluating three (3)-pump systems versus two (2), and alternative wet well layouts.
3. Design for the rehabilitation of LS2, which is undersized for near future flow rates to
accommodate at least a 20-year growth horizon.
RH2 will procure additional data available from the City and develop a flow-monitoring plan by
inputting the data into the existing sewer model. This will update the model to the latest available
historical information. From there, RH2 will prepare a plan for the City to install up to six (6) flow
meters to track daily flows and gather data relevant to average day, peak day, and peak hour flow, and
monitor how the existing LS2 sewer connections and proposed long term future connections will affect
the collection system. Due to the nature of this work, RH2 will utilize and rely upon the data,
information, and materials provided as-is by the City or others.
Using this information, RH2 will size the pumps for the rehabilitation of LS2, including provisions for
site expansion to accommodate maintenance and operation. This will likely include an additional
manhole before the wetwell to help convey gravity flow into the station. The station will be retrofitted
from the existing Smith and Loveless wetwell-drywell system to a submersible station with an above-
ground control building housing the power and control systems. The drywell will be abandoned and
filled with sand after removal and salvage of interior components. Pump brands that will be reviewed
include Flygt and Wemco submersible non-clog pumps. An emergency power generator will be
designed for the station and housed in a building or located outside in an enclosure. The site will likely
require expansion with property purchase. With our subconsultant, RH2 will provide survey drawings
for site expansion with legal descriptions that can be used by the City during appraisal and acquisition
of additional property. The City can then utilize others in property appraisal, negotiation, and
acquisition. RH2 can recommend appraisers and acquisition specialists for consideration at the City’s
request.

At present, the force main is 8-inch C-900 PVC and flows west under 204th Street NE and north under
the Centennial Trail to its outlet in 67th Avenue NE and the Centennial Trail. The length of this force
main is approximately 2,300 feet. This route is feasible to be reused in the near term and could in the
future be a replacement route, as well as other routes. One conceptual route is east on 204th Street and
then north and east on easements toward Highway 9 where it can discharge to a gravity main. Based on
existing information, the force main will likely need to be 12-inches in diameter in the 20 year time
horizon and beyond. This will be established with the flow monitoring plan. Force main replacement or
addition is not part of the design scope of work.
RH2 will assist the City with the following permits:
· State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA) review by the City.
· Right-of-way – Revocable Encroachment permit for LS2.
The City will complete the Building permit for LS2. No other permit assistance is provided with this
Scope of Work. If additional permits are required based on the results of the flow monitoring plan
analysis, RH2 can assist the City via amendment to this Scope of Work.
Finally, RH2 will assist with bidding via standard design-bid-build process to select the lowest
responsible bidder with the City. This may include utilizing pre-qualifications to select a contractor with
experience with lift station rehabilitation.

DESCRIPTION:
The City of Arlington has the opportunity as a “Tree City” to receive four weeks of a tree
crew’s labor. The attached agreement outlines the conditions and proposed tree project
locations in the City. The crew is limited to work on tree maintenance and tree
installation projects that enhance urban forestry conditions.
HISTORY:
The City of Arlington was designated a “Tree City” in 2003. Since that time the City has
held annual Arbor Day celebrations, and planted thousands of trees in the parks,
wetlands and stream buffers. As a Tree City we qualify for one-month of the DNR Tree
crew services at no cost to the City which is equivalent to $20,000. This value can be put
towards our annual $2.00 per capita requirement to be spent on urban forestry
management. The City will be responsible to haul off of any trimmed branches, pay for
any new trees planted, and implement a three year monitoring plan.

DESCRIPTION:
Contract with Perteet, Inc. to develop crosswalk standards for the City of Arlington.
HISTORY:
Crosswalks are a very integral component of the City’s multimodal transportation, they allow for
the safe crossing of pedestrians and bikes across streets and roads. The City of Arlington has a
myriad of crosswalk styles installed across the City and has received several complaints about the
City’s crosswalks from pedestrians, bicyclists, and trail users. After reviewing the City’s current
crosswalk standards, it was decided that a new set of crosswalk standards be developed that are
suitable and safe for the crossing location and that incorporate the most current safety materials
and equipment.
Staff requested qualifications from two different firms for preparation of crosswalk standards.
Based on review of the qualifications, staff opted to move forward with Perteet, Inc. and requested
a scope of work and fee to develop crosswalk standards.

3.2 JURISDICTION PRO FILE
The following is a summary of key information about the jurisdiction and its history:
Date of Incorporation—1903
Current Population—17,930 as of 2013 Census
Population Growth—The population growth went from 17,926 in 2010 to 17,930 in 2012. There had
been a strong growth rate since 1980 that slowed with the recession in 2008.
Location and Description—The City of Arlington is located in northern Snohomish County
approximately 10 miles north of Everett and 40 miles north of Seattle. The City limits cover an area of
approximately 9.2 square miles, and is roughly bounded by the Stillaguamish River and its flood plain
on the north-northwest; I-5 on the west; 164th Street NE to 67th Avenue then 172nd Street on the
south; and by SR-9 and the South Fork Stillaguamish flood plain on the east. The City of Marysville lies
to the south, the Stillaguamish Indian Reservation to the north and the Tulalip Indian Reservation to
the southwest. Further east up the Stillaguamish Valley is the City of Darrington.
Brief History—The city was born at the confluence of the North and South Fork Stillaguamish River
near a Stillaguamish Tribal Village. The town started as Haller City around 1891 and was then
incorporated as City of Arlington in 1903. The industrial growth started with logging and quickly
moved to agriculture in the valley floor. Industrial growth started to become established around the
Airport in the 1960s and has been growing ever since. The town footprint stayed close to the same
size until Gleneagle Development began in the 1980s and the annexation of Smokey Point in 1999.
Climate—On average, the warmest month is August; the highest recorded temperature was 98°F in
1955. January is the average coolest month; the lowest recorded temperature was 0°F in 1993. The
maximum average precipitation occurs in November.
City of Arlington Annex
3-2
Governing Body Format—The City of Arlington is a Mayor–Council form of government; seven
elected council members and a part-time mayor govern Arlington and will assume responsibility for
adoption of this plan. The City Administrator oversees day-to-day operation of City-sponsored
services, which include: administrative services, development services (includes planning,
engineering, utilities, and natural resources), finance, airport operations, police, and fire.
Washington State Law (Revised Code of Washington (RCW) Chapter 36.70) requires counties that
meet specified population criteria, and the cities within those counties, to prepare and adopt a
comprehensive long-range plan to serve as a guide for community development. The plan must
consist of an integrated and internally consistent set of goals, policies, and implementation measures.
In addition, the plan must focus on issues of the greatest concern to the community and be written in
a clear and concise manner. City actions, such as those relating to land use allocations, annexations,
zoning, subdivision and design review, redevelopment, and capital improvements, must be consistent
with such a plan. The City of Arlington is in compliance and good standing with the provisions of RC W
36.70 and adopted its most recent general plan in 2005 and updated the plan in 2009. The City will
review and amend its Comprehensive Plan as necessary. Future growth and development will be
managed as identified in this plan.
Development Trends—The City and the immediate area is primarily suburban and rural residential
with supporting retail and commercial enterprises. Light industrial and manufacturing business are
located in the central portions of the City around the City-owned Arlington Airport. Unlike many small
towns, Arlington is an employment center with approximately 2.2 jobs per household.
The local industrial, commercial, and retail activities provide a significant portion of the area’s
economic base, which is supplemented by “commuter payrolls” in nearby Everett. Therefore, the
economy of Arlington is influenced by the industry in the surrounding area, the most significant of
which is Boeing’s manufacturing facilities, the Navy’s carrier home base, and the “Technology
Corridor.”
Over the years, the greater Arlington area has realized an increase in commercial and industrial
growth. The most significant growth has occurred at the City’s municipal airport. In addition to the
many aviation related assets, the airport also provides benefits to local businesses and industries and
encourages additional economic development and expansion throughout the City and surrounding
communities. The Airport is also in the process of developing an additional 124 acres of business
parks.
Smokey Point, annexed to the City in 1999, is a business community located in southwest Arlington
that is a rapidly growing commercial and retail area that serves the City and the City of Marysville.
Island Crossing was annexed into the City in 2009 and includes a large portion along the Stillaguamish
River, commercial farming, and a few retail stores near the I-5 interchange.

of the jurisdiction’s administrative and technical capabilities is presented in Table 3-4. The assessment of the
jurisdiction’s fiscal capabilities is presented in Table 3-5. Classifications under various community mitigation
programs are presented in Table 3-6.
3.6 HAZARD MITIGATIO N ACTION PLAN AND EV ALUATION OF RECOMMEN DED INITIATIVES
Table 3-7 lists the initiatives that make up the jurisdiction’s hazard mitigation plan. Table 3-8 identifies the
priority for each initiative. Table 3-9 summarizes the mitigation initiatives by hazard of concern and the six
mitigation types.
3.7 STATUS OF PREVIO US PLAN INITIATIVES
Table 3-10 summarizes the initiatives that were recommended in the previous version of the hazard mitigation
plan and their implementation status at the time this update was prepared.
3.8 FUTURE NEEDS TO BETTER UNDERSTAND RI SK/VULNERABILITY
Hazard area extent and location maps have been generated for the City of Arlington and are included at the
end of this chapter. These maps are based on the best available data at the time of the preparation of this
plan, and are considered to be adequate for planning purposes. The City will coordinate with the State on
generation of landslide hazard maps as recommended by the Governors 530 slide commission report.
3.9 INTERNAL PLANNIN G PROCESS
The internal planning process is described in Appendix E of this document.
3.10 ADDITIONAL COMMENTS
The City of Arlington incorporates a continuous improvement practice which relies on integrating the most
recent information available including climate change projections into our GIS mapping and planning tools.
The City depends on coordination with County and State agencies to assure we have a common understanding
of the risks, and implement standard practices to reduce the hazards associated with those risks.
