13.36 of this code, shall be as follows:
(1) All user charges shall be based upon equitable unit charges established for flow
BOD (biochemical oxygen demand) loading and TSS (total suspended solids)
loading, based upon the average BOD, TSS and other parameter(s) concentrations (as
established by the public works director) monitored for the industrial user and the
flow recorded in the monitoring manhole or water use.
(2) A minimum monthly charge will be established by the city to cover the basic
sewer costs and monitoring of the industrial user's wastewater discharge, and in the
event the monthly sewer bill does not exceed this amount the industrial user shall
agree to pay the estimated minimum monthly charge. This charge shall be reviewed
from time to time and adjusted to ensure the charge is covering the monitoring
services and sewer costs provided and must be reviewed every two years. Initially,
ORDINANCE 201420152016-XXX 4
the monthly charges shall be based on the following, unless otherwise established in
the negotiated discharge permit:
(A) For an industrial user with waste strength less than two hundred fifty mg/l,
measured as five-day BOD and TSS, and other parameters within limits established in
Sections 13.08.240, 13.08.250, 13.36 of this title, and whose discharge does not
require regular monitoring other than flow, the minimum monthly charge is as set
forth below:

annually, by the October reported percentage increase of the Consumer Price Index
(CPI) for the Seattle-Tacoma-Bremerton area for All Urban Consumers, or other
measure commonly used by the city should it change; provided, however, that
notwithstanding any reduction in the CPI, rates shall not decrease.
(3) Until such time as a sewer user charge analysis can be conducted to establish

Tacoma-Bremerton area for All Urban Consumers, or other measure commonly used
by the city should it change; provided, however, that notwithstanding any reduction in

(4) Flow shall be based upon one hundred percent of the water consumption or rate
of flow of wastewater discharge into the sewer (measured in an industrial user
installed flow measurement and recording equipment installed in control manhole,
pursuant to Chapter 13.36 of the Arlington Municipal Code). Strength of wastewater
discharged shall be established based upon twenty-four-hour composite samples
made by the city at the control manhole and tested by the city's wastewater treatment
plant laboratory or state certified testing laboratory. All testing shall be in accordance
with the latest edition of "Standard Methods for Examination of Water and
Wastewater," APHA, AWWA and WPCF. BOD and TSS, pounds per day, shall be
calculated based upon concentration of composite samples and established flow rates.
(5) Appeal.
(A) If any user believes that a portion of the user's metered flow, larger than ten
percent, is not discharged into the sewer system (when flow measurement is not
provided in the control manhole), the user should make written application to the
public works director for review of the user's flow of wastewater. If the public works
director agrees that charges for the user should be adjusted, they shall so notify the
city council, which may approve such change, or direct a recomputation of the user's
sewer rates.
(B) If the public works director does not agree to the adjustment of user charges, the
user may further appeal to the city council, which may direct further study or take
other appropriate action.
ORDINANCE 201420152016-XXX 6

after the Contract is closed out, shall be subject to the following:
1) Unless otherwise provided elsewhere in this Contract, and subject
to the requirements of paragraph ii of this subsection, if at the time

directly from the County, income received after close-out shall be
treated as program income of the ongoing grant program.
2) If the Agency does not have another ongoing grant received directly
from the County at the time of close-out, income received after

amended from time to time.
2.Debarment and Suspension

indirectly to employ, award contracts to, or otherwise engage the services

Accessibility Requirements required by 24 CFR Part 8. The Agency shall
condition any grants, awards, or loans made with assistance under this
Contract with those applicable standards.
E. Real Property
1. Transfer
a. Flood Insurance
Any contract or agreement for the sale, lease or other transfer of land
acquired, cleared or improved with assistance provided under this
Contract shall contain, if such land is located in an area identified by
the Secretary of HUD as having special flood hazards and in which the
sale of flood insurance has been made available under the National
Flood Insurance Act of 1968, as amended (42 U.S.C. § 4001 et seq.),
provisions obligating the transferee and its successors or assigns to
obtain and maintain, during the ownership of such land, such flood
insurance as may be required with respect to financial assistance for
acquisition or construction purposes under Section 102(a) of the Flood
Disaster Protection Act of 1973. Such provisions shall be required
notwithstanding the fact that the construction on such land is not itself
funded with assistance provided under this Contract.
b. Covenants
1) Where assistance under this Contract is provided in the form of real
property or an interest in the property from the County, the
instrument effecting or recording this transfer shall contain a
covenant running with the land to assure non-discrimination for the
period during which the real property is used for a purpose for
which the assistance under this Contract is extended or for another
purpose involving the provision of similar services or benefits.
2) Where no transfer of property is involved, but property is purchased
or improved with financial assistance under this Contract, the
Agency shall agree to include the covenant described in this
Contract in the instrument effecting or recording any subsequent
transfer of the property.
Exhibit A
HCS-15-21-1501-216
City of Arlington
Page 10 of 35
3)Where assistance under this Contract is provided in the form of real
property or an interest in the property from the County, the
covenant shall also include a condition coupled with a right to be
reserved by the County to revert title to the property in the event of
a breach of the covenant. If a transferee of real property proposes
to mortgage or otherwise encumber the real property as security for
financing construction of new, or improvement of existing, facilities
on the property for the purposes for which the property was
transferred, the County may, upon request of the transferee, if
necessary to accomplish such financing, and upon such conditions
as the County deems appropriate, agree to forbear the exercise of
such right to revert title for so long as the lien of such mortgage or
other encumbrance remains effective.
2.Change in Use
The standards described in this section apply to real property within the
Agency’s control which was acquired or improved in whole or in part using
CDBG funds provided pursuant to this Contract. Except as otherwise
provided by federal statutes, the Agency will use real property acquired
with funds provided under this Contract for its originally authorized
purposes as long as needed for those purposes and shall not dispose of
or encumber its title or other interests in that property. These standards
shall apply from the date CDBG funds are first spent for the property until
five years from the date the Agency is no longer considered by HUD to be
part of the urban county as defined at 24 CFR § 570.3.
a.The Agency may not change the use or planned use of any such
property (including the beneficiaries of such use) from that for which
the acquisition or improvement was made as specified in Exhibit B
unless the Agency receives prior written approval from the County, and
either:
1)The new use of such property qualifies as meeting one of the
national objectives in 24 CFR § 570.901 and is not a building for
the general conduct of government; or
2)The requirements in paragraph (b) of this section are met.
b.If the Agency determines, after prior approval from the County, that it is
appropriate to change the use of the property to a use which does not
qualify under paragraph (a) (1) of this section, it may retain or dispose
of the property for the changed use if the Agency reimburses the
County in the amount of the current fair market value of the property,
Exhibit A
HCS-15-21-1501-216
City of Arlington
Page 11 of 35
less any portion of the value attributable to expenditures of non-grant
funds for acquisition of, and improvements to, the property.
c. If the change of use occurs after close-out, the Agency shall promptly
notify the County to obtain appropriate disposition instructions.
F. Public Information
1. The Agency shall insure recognition of the role of the County in providing
services through this Contract. All activities, facilities, and items utilized
pursuant to this Contract shall be prominently labeled as to funding
source.
2. In all news releases and other public notices related to or funded under
this Contract, the Agency shall include information identifying the source
of funds as the Snohomish County Community Development Block Grant
Program. The Agency will include a reference to the support provided
herein in all publications made possible with funds available under this
Contract.
3. For all construction projects, the Agency shall erect a sign to County
specifications at the construction site, identifying the source of funds,
except that this requirement may be waived for construction projects of
$10,000 or less.
G. Use and Reversion of Assets
The use and disposition of real property and equipment under this Contract
shall be in compliance with the requirements of OMB as applicable.
V. PROJECT MANAGEMENT
A. Non-Expendable Personal Property (“Equipment”)
"Equipment" shall mean an article of non-expendable, personal property or
information technology systems and software, including exempt property (as
that term is defined in OMB), having a useful life of more than one year and
an acquisition cost of $5,000 or more per unit.
1. Title
Subject to the obligations and conditions set forth in OMB and this section,
title to equipment acquired under this Contract will vest upon acquisition in
the Agency.

2. Use
a. In the case of assistance under this Contract to provide personal
property, the compliance requirements of Section 504 of the
Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as amended, found in this Contract, shall
obligate the Agency for the period during which it retains ownership or
possession of the equipment.
b. Equipment shall be used by the Agency in the project or program for
which it was acquired as long as needed, whether or not the project or
program continues to be supported by funds allotted under this
Contract. The Agency shall not encumber the equipment without the
approval of the County. When no longer needed for the original project
or program, the equipment may be used in other activities currently or
previously supported by Snohomish County CDBG funds or other
federally-sponsored activities as provided by OMB.
c. During the time the equipment is used on the project or program for
which it was acquired, the Agency shall also make equipment available
for use on other projects or programs currently or previously supported
by the County providing such use will not interfere with the work on the
project or program for which it was originally acquired. First preference
for other use shall be given to other programs or projects supported by
the County. User charges shall be treated as program income.
d. The Agency shall not use equipment acquired with CDBG funds to
provide services to non-federal outside organizations for a fee that is
less than private companies charge for equivalent services, unless
specifically authorized by federal statute, for as long as the federal
government retains an interest in the equipment.
e. When acquiring replacement equipment, the Agency may use the
equipment to be replaced as a trade-in or sell the property and use the
proceeds to offset the cost of the replacement property, subject to the
approval of the County.
3. Management Requirements
Procedures for managing equipment (including replacement equipment),
whether acquired in whole or in part with CDBG funds, until disposition
takes place will, at a minimum, meet the requirements of OMB, including
the following:
a. Equipment records must be maintained accurately and shall include a
description of the equipment, a manufacturer’s serial number or other
identification number, the source of equipment, including the award
Exhibit A

number, who holds title, the acquisition date (or date received, if the
equipment was furnished by the federal government), cost of the
equipment, information from which the percentage of federal
participation in the cost of the equipment can be calculated, the
location and condition of the equipment, and the date information was
reported, unit acquisition cost, and ultimate disposition data including
the date of disposal and sale price of the equipment or the method
used to determine current fair market value when the Agency
compensated the County for its share.
b. Equipment owned by the federal government shall be identified to
indicate federal ownership.
c. A physical inventory of the equipment shall be taken and the results
reconciled with the property records at least once every two years.
Any differences between quantities determined by physical inspection
and those shown in the accounting records shall be investigated to
determine the causes of the difference. The Agency shall, in
connection with the inventory, verify the existence, current utilization,
and continued need for the equipment.
d. A control system shall be in effect to ensure adequate safeguards to
prevent loss, damage, or theft of the equipment. Any loss, damage, or
theft shall be investigated and fully documented.
e. Adequate maintenance procedures shall be developed to keep the
equipment in good condition.
f. If the Agency is authorized or required to sell the equipment, proper
sales procedures shall be established which provide for competition to
the fullest extent practicable and result in the highest possible return.
4. Disposition
When original or replacement equipment acquired under this Contract is
no longer needed by the Agency for the original project or program or for
other activities currently or previously supported by the County, disposition
of the equipment will be made as provided in OMB and as follows:
a. Items of equipment with a current per-unit fair market value of less
than $5,000 may be retained, sold, or otherwise disposed of with no
further obligation to the County.
b. Items of equipment with a current per-unit fair market value of $5,000
or more may be retained or sold and the County shall be paid an
Exhibit A
HCS-15-21-1501-216
City of Arlington
Page 14 of 35
amount calculated by multiplying the current market value or proceeds
from sale by the County’s share of the equipment.
c. In cases where the Agency fails to take appropriate disposition actions,
the County may direct the Agency to take excess and disposition
actions.
5. Right to Transfer Title
As provided in OMB, the County reserves the right to require the Agency
to transfer title of equipment to the federal government or a third party
named by the County when such a third party is otherwise eligible under
existing statutes, as determined by the County. Such transfers shall be
subject to the following standards:
a. The property shall be identified in this Contract or otherwise made
known to the Agency in writing.
b. The County shall issue disposition instructions within 120 calendar
days after the end of the County support of the project for which the
equipment was acquired. If the County fails to issue disposition
instructions within the 120 calendar-day period, the Agency shall apply
the standards of OMB, as appropriate.
c. When title to equipment is transferred, the Agency shall be paid an
amount calculated by applying the percentage of participation in the
purchase to the current fair market value of the property.
6. Fees for Services
The Agency shall not use equipment acquired with federal funds to
provide services for a fee to compete unfairly with private companies that
provide equivalent services, unless specifically permitted or contemplated
by federal statute.
B. Expendable Tangible Personal Property (“Supplies”)

to the Agency;
2. The owner agrees to forfeit possession of the property upon execution of
the sale/lease agreement; and

defined by 24 CFR § 570.606(b)(2) that are displaced as a direct result of
acquisition, rehabilitation, demolition or conversion for a CDBG-assisted
project. In the event any occupant of any real property acquired with
assistance provided under this Contract is deemed by the County or by higher
authority to have been displaced and thereby to be entitled to relocation
assistance under these authorities, the Agency shall be solely responsible for
providing the required assistance and paying all costs therefor, and the
Agency shall hold the County harmless from any liability for such assistance.

requirements shall subject the County, the Agency and any of the
Agency’s Subagencies, their successors and assigns, to those
sanctions specified by the Contract through which federal assistance is

disability exists that would prevent compliance with these
requirements.
The Agency further agrees to comply with these “Section 3”
requirements and to include the following language, set forth in 24
CFR § 135.38, in all subcontracts executed under this Contract:
1) The work to be performed under this Contract is a project assisted
under a program providing direct federal financial assistance from
HUD and is subject to the requirements of Section 3 of the Housing
and Urban Development Act of 1968, as amended (12 U.S.C.
§ 1701). Section 3 requires that to the greatest extent feasible

Page 22 of 35
income persons residing in the metropolitan area in which the
project is located.
2)The Agency further agrees to ensure that opportunities for training
and employment arising in connection with a housing rehabilitation
(including reduction and of lead-based paint hazards), housing
construction, or other public construction project are given to low-
and very low-income persons residing within the metropolitan area
in which the CDBG-funded project is located; where feasible,
priority should be given to low- and very low-income persons within
the service area of the project or the neighborhood in which the
project is located, and to low- and very low-income participants in
other HUD programs; and award contracts for work undertaken in
connection with a housing rehabilitation (including reduction and
abatement of lead-based paint hazards), housing construction, or
other public construction project to business concerns that provide
economic opportunities for low- and very low-income persons
residing within the metropolitan area in which the CDBG-funded
project is located; where feasible, priority should be given to
business concerns that provide economic opportunities to low- and
very low-income residents within the service area or the
neighborhood in which the project is located, and to low- and very
low-income participants in other HUD programs.
3)The Agency certifies and agrees that no contractual or other legal
incapacity exists that would prevent compliance with these
requirements.
b.Notifications
The Agency agrees to send to each labor organization or
representative of workers with which it has a collective bargaining
contract or other contract or understanding, if any, a notice advising
said labor organization or workers’ representative of its commitments
under this Section 3 clause and shall post copies of the notice in
conspicuous places available to employees and applicants for
employment or training.
c.Subcontracts
The Agency will include this Section 3 clause in every subcontract and
will take appropriate action pursuant to the subcontract upon a finding
that the subagency is in violation of regulations issued by HUD. The
Agency will not subcontract with any entity where it has notice or
knowledge that the latter has been found in violation of regulations
under 24 CFR Part 135 and will not let any subcontract unless the
Exhibit A
HCS-15-21-1501-216
City of Arlington
Page 23 of 35
entity has first provided it with a preliminary statement of ability to
comply with the requirements of these regulations.
d. Snohomish County Section 3 Area
Snohomish County has identified its Section 3 area as that area within
the corporate boundaries of Snohomish County. The term “low
income” includes low-income unemployed residents of Snohomish
County. The Agency will, to the greatest extent feasible, provide
employment opportunities to those individuals.
D. Conduct

The Agency agrees that no funds provided, nor personnel employed,
under this Contract shall be in any way or to any extent be applied to, or

Chapter 15.
3. Conflict of Interest
a. In the procurement of supplies, equipment, construction, and services
by recipients and subrecipients, the Agency agrees to abide by the
conflict of interest provisions of OMB, which include (but are not limited
to) the following:
1) The Agency shall maintain a written code or standards of conduct
that shall govern the performance of its officers, employees or
agents engaged in the award and administration of contracts
supported by federal funds.

by federal funds if a conflict of interest, real or apparent, and as
described in OMB, would be involved.
Exhibit A
HCS-15-21-1501-216
City of Arlington
Page 24 of 35
3) The Agency’s officers, employees or agents shall neither solicit nor
accept gratuities, favors or anything of monetary value from
Agencies, potential Agencies, or parties to subcontracts. The
Agency may set minimum rules where the financial interest is not
substantial or the gift is an unsolicited item of nominal intrinsic
value.
4) To the extent permitted by state or local law or regulations, such
standards of conduct will provide for penalties, sanctions, or other
disciplinary actions for violations of such standards by the Agency’s
officers, employees or agents, or by Subagencies or their agents.
5) In all cases not governed by OMB, the provisions of 24 CFR
§ 570.611(a) shall apply.
b. In addition to the Conflict of Interest and Kickback provisions in the
Basic Terms and Conditions, the following applies:
Upon the written request of the Agency, the County may grant an
exception to the provisions of paragraph (2) of this section on a case-
by-case basis when it determines that such an exception will serve to
further the purposes of the County’s Community Development Block
Grant Program and the effective and efficient administration of the
Agency’s project. An exception may be considered only after the
Agency has provided a disclosure of the nature of the conflict,
accompanied by an assurance that there has been public disclosure of
the conflict and a description of how the public disclosure was made.
4. Religious or Faith-Based Organizations; Inherently Religious Activities;
Non-Discrimination
The following provisions imposed by 24 CFR § 570.200(j) applies to all
recipients of CDBG funds through the County, including the Agency:
a. Eligibility
Organizations that are religious or faith-based are eligible, on the same
basis as any other organization, to participate in the CDBG program.
b. Inherently Religious Activities
Organizations that are directly funded under the CDBG program may
not engage in inherently religious activities, such as worship, religious
instruction, or proselytization, as a part of the programs or services
funded under 24 CFR Part 570. If the Agency conducts such activities,
the activities must be offered separately, in time or location, from the
Exhibit A
HCS-15-21-1501-216
City of Arlington
Page 25 of 35
programs or services funded under 24 CFR Part 570, and participation
must be voluntary for the beneficiaries of the HUD-funded programs or
services.
c. Discrimination Against Beneficiaries or Prospective Beneficiaries
An organization that participates in the CDBG program shall not, in
providing program assistance, discriminate against a program
beneficiary or prospective program beneficiary on the basis of religion
or religious belief.
d. Structures Used for Inherently Religious Activities
CDBG funds may not be used for the acquisition, construction or
rehabilitation of structures to the extent that those structures are used
for inherently religious activities. CDBG funds may be used for the
acquisition, construction or rehabilitation of structures only to the extent
that those structures are used for conducting eligible activities under
24 CFR Part 570. Where a structure is used for both eligible and
inherently religious activities, CDBG funds may not exceed the cost of
those portions of the acquisition, construction or rehabilitation that are
attributable to eligible activities in accordance with the cost accounting
requirements applicable to CDBG funds in 24 CFR Part 570.
Sanctuaries, chapels or other rooms that a CDBG-funded religious
congregation uses as its principal place of worship, however, are
ineligible for CDBG-funded improvements.
e. Employment discrimination
Pursuant to 24 CFR § 5.109(e), a religious organization’s exemption
from the federal prohibition on employment discrimination on the basis
of religion, set forth in section 702(a) of the Civil Rights Act of 1964
(codified at 42 U.S.C. § 2000e-1), is not forfeited when the
organization participates in the HUD program. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, non-discrimination requirements imposed by statute on all
CDBG grantees shall apply to religious and faith-based organizations.
f. Commingling of Funds
If applicable, pursuant to 24 CFR § 570.200(j)(6), if the local
government voluntarily contributes its own funds to supplement the
activities funded pursuant to this Contract, the local government has
the option to segregate the federal CDBG funds or commingle them.
However, if the funds are commingled, the requirements of this section
apply to all of the commingled funds.

XXXV. INSURANCE
A. By the date of execution of any Contract, the Agency shall procure and maintain for
the duration of any Contract, insurance against claims for injuries to persons or
damages to property which may arise from, or in connection with, the performance
of work hereunder by the Agency, its agents, representatives, employees, and/or
subagencies. The costs of such insurance shall be paid by the Agency or
subagencies. The Agency may furnish separate certificates of insurance and policy
endorsements for each subagency as evidence of compliance with the insurance
requirements of this Agreement and any Contract. The Agency is responsible for
ensuring compliance with all of the insurance requirements stated herein. Failure by
the Agency, its agents, employees, officers, and or subagencies to comply with the
insurance requirements stated herein shall constitute a material breach of any
Contract.
For all coverages, each insurance policy shall be written on an “occurrence” form;
except that insurance on a “claims made” form may be acceptable with prior County
approval.
If coverage is approved and purchased on a “claims made” basis, the Agency
warrants continuation of coverage, either through policy renewals or the purchase of
an extended discovery period, if such extended coverage is available, for not less
than three years from the date any Contract termination, and/or conversion from a
“claims made” form to an “occurrence” coverage form.
By requiring such minimum insurance, the County shall not be deemed or construed
to have assessed the risks that may be applicable to the Agency under any
Contract. The Agency shall assess its own risks and, if it deems appropriate and/or
prudent, maintain greater limits and/or broader coverage.
Nothing contained within these insurance requirements shall be deemed to limit the
scope, application and/or limits of the coverage afforded by said policies, which
coverage will apply to each insured to the full extent provided by the terms and
conditions of the policy(s). Nothing contained within this provision shall affect and/or
alter the application of any other provision contained within this Agreement or any
Contract.
B. Minimum Scope of Insurance
Coverage shall be at least as broad as:
1. General Liability: Insurance Services Office form number (CG 00 01) covering
COMMERCIAL GENERAL LIABILITY.
2. Professional Liability: Professional Liability, Errors, and Omissions coverage. In
the event that services delivered pursuant to any Contract, either directly or
indirectly, involve or require professional services, Professional Liability, Errors,
and Omissions coverage shall be provided. “Professional Services”, for the
purpose of this section, shall mean any services provided by a licensed
professional or those services that require professional standards of care.
3. Automobile Liability: In the event that services delivered pursuant to any
Contract require the use of a vehicle or involve the transportation of clients by

LEGAL REVIEW:
DESCRIPTION:
The City has been banking with Bank of America for at least the past 20 years. It is a
prudent business practice to review processes and services on a periodic basis to
determine if you are receiving the required level of service, quality of service and best
pricing for those services. Staff is recommending the City publish a request for proposal
(RFP) for banking services to evaluate what other options may be available to better meet
our needs. The RFP has been reviewed by legal counsel. The request for proposals will
be evaluated on responsiveness to the RFP, the bank’s ability to perform required
services, fees, references and community presence. The contract for banking services
when awarded will be for a three year term with an option to extend an additional two
years. A review of the proposals along with staff’s recommendation for the selected
bank will be discussed with council at the March 14 workshop.

Attachment A
SCOPE OF SERVICES
GENERAL INFORMATION
The City of Arlington is soliciting proposals for a primary banking relationship with a financial
institution which operates an office within the City limits. The City will be contracting for the
following general services for an approximate three year period beginning April 1, 2016 and
ending March 31, 2019. At the City’s option, a two year extension will be permitted with the
same terms and conditions of the original contract or as amended.
The following is a listing of mandatory services the City requires of its financial institution. This
list is not comprehensive and shall in no way obligate the City to be required to use all listed
services.
• Demand deposit checking accounts • Banking supplies
• Payroll direct deposit • Trust & escrow agent services
• Merchant card services • ACH debit/credit services
• On-line balance reporting • On-line stop-pays
• ACH reporting • On-line wire transfers
• Overdraft line of credit • Purchase cards
• Excellent customer service & response • Check scanning services
The City anticipates that proposed banking services will be compensated either by the credit
earned on average collected balances, or a fee for service basis, but is also willing to consider
other options.
The following is a list of optional services the City may require:
• Lock-box Services
• Account Reconciliation Processing (ARP)
• Positive-Pay on checking accounts
Credit cards
SERVICES REQUIRED
Checking Accounts: The City currently utilizes two checking accounts: 1) the primary checking
account and 2) a petty cash account for issuing checks for small, non-routine purchases. The
institution will furnish the City with additional checking accounts as needed. Daily deposits are
made at the branch office. NSF checks must be processed twice before being returned to the
City. The basic checking account services should at least consist of:
• Provide month-end statements by the 10th day of the following month and provide
statements to various auditors upon request;
• Provide electronic check image retrieval including necessary software;
• Provide individual and consolidated monthly account analysis for all accounts by the 10th day
of the following month;
13
• Provide an on-line wire transfer system for transferring money to other institutions, along
with appropriate security levels for wire transfer initiations and approvals;
• Provide an on-line computer balance reporting system, with information on collected,
available and closing balances, as well as a detail of total debits and credits posted to the
account for the previous day, by 7:00 a.m. each business day;
• Provide an on-line reporting system that shows current day ACH credits and debits each
business day.
• Provide Positive Pay feature with exception reporting/return of unknown items;
• Provide for on-line stop-pay look-up and notification;
• Provide support in answering questions, trouble-shooting problems and resolving issues in a
prompt manner;
• Provide means to inquire about canceled checks and stop payment on checks upon proper
authorization.
Overdraft protection: Although the City will attempt to minimize daylight and overnight
overdraft situations, it recognizes that there are times these situations could occur. (Note: an
overdraft has not occurred within current institutional memory.)
Trust and Escrow Agent Services: The City may require trust and escrow agent services to
hold letters of credit and other third party commercial documents. The institution will, in most
cases, be required to take physical custody of these securities, notify the Parties of their expiration
thirty days prior to termination of the agreement and accept renewal or replacement of
instruments. The City may also require retainage accounts be maintained for contractors
choosing to place retainage funds in an interest bearing account.
Safekeeping Services: The City currently is not requiring safekeeping services. However, the
institution may, in the future, be required to provide safekeeping facilities and services for the
City’s investment securities. Safekeeping services include (but are not limited to):
• receive/deliver securities on a delivery versus payment method;
• price securities to market;
• collect coupon bond interest;
• provide delivery confirmation on new security purchases;
• provide a monthly statement of holdings;
• register or transfer securities;
• verify holdings as of specific dates for audit purposes;
• credit the City’s account for interest and principal payments on the day received;
• provide maturity and interest payment notices at least 5 days prior to payment date
The City invests in U.S. Treasury and Agency securities that require safekeeping services and
other securities allowed by Washington State Statute. The successful bidder will, at that time, be
required to comply with all State and Federal regulations regarding safekeeping of municipal
securities.
Banking Supplies: The financial institution will be required to provide a supply of coin rollers,
locking bank bags, tamper-proof plastic deposit bags, deposit slips, advance travel and other
miscellaneous checks, and endorsement stamps for each location. (See Attachment B for the
14
number of endorsement stamps needed.) The cost of such supplies shall be charged against the
City’s earnings credits.
Training Services: Training, operating manuals and ongoing support are to be supplied by the
bank for all services provided.
Wire/ACH Transfers: The financial institution will provide the City with the ability to initiate
wire and ACH transfers via online banking. ACH transactions consist primarily of debt service,
retirement fund transfers, state and federal tax payments. The online banking platform will
require a secure separation of duties for initiation and approval by city staff.
Direct Deposit for Payroll: The City offers and encourages direct payroll deposit for its
employees. The City pays its employees on the last working day of the month. On an average
payroll, 126 employees receive direct deposit, which generates approximately 175 transactions
per pay period due to many employees having multiple bank account transfers. The City is
considering moving to a bi-monthly pay period.
Currently, the City tries to transmit payroll data to the institution before 4:00 p.m. the second
working day prior to payday. Deposits must be made into the employees’ accounts by 12:01 a.m.
on payday. Any deviation from these time limits must be stated in the bid. Any bidder with less
restrictive time requirements will be given favorable consideration.
The City from time to time may need to transmit the payroll data one day prior to the pay date.
We are therefore requesting bids on both a one-day and two-day turnaround. We are interested
in what the deadlines for transmission are for both situations.
Merchant Card Services: The Financial institution will provide the City with the ability to accept
payment through the use of credit cards. The City currently accepts MasterCard, Visa and
Discover credit cards in person and on-line for collection of recreation, certain permit fees, and
utility bills and may expand for other types of collections as well. The City currently has three
locations that accept credit cards, with the possibility of more locations in the future. The City
will be credited daily for the gross amount of the bank card transactions. Any sales discount fee
or percentage proposed will be billed at the end of each month as part of the activity charges.
Night Depository Services: The City currently does not utilize ‘night drop’ deposits after hours
and does not anticipate this service in the near future.
Purchasing Cards: The City is utilizing a purchasing card program for making routine purchases
in lieu of the normal requisition/purchase order mode of operations.
Data Equipment Compatibility: The City relies on on-line transactions. Please note the
specifications (equipment/software) needed for an automated wire transfer, ACH debit and credit,
credit card, balance reporting and any other automated systems included in this proposal. Any
costs associated with automated data and equipment should be identified on the Bid Sheet form
in Attachment B.
Miscellaneous Optional Services: In addition to the requirements listed above, the
proposal shall identify proposed fees for the following services:
15
• Automatic Account Reconciliation
• Courier services
• Lockbox services
• Payment of financial system upgrades and fees through use of service charge credits. In
order to enhance our banking/financial processing capabilities, we may wish to pay for these
fees through service charge credits.
• Other services provided by your institution that would be beneficial to the City of Arlington,
but have not specifically been addressed. Please itemize on the Bid Sheet form in Attachment
B.
Online Banking: The financial institution will provide the City with access to internet on-line
banking, which, at a minimum, will include the following capabilities:
Secure, dual administration (separation of duties) for initiating and approving user access,
permissions, wire transfers, ACH transfers, template setups, etc.
Future dated wire transfers and ACH transfers.
Ability to identify via on-line reporting, by numeric code or text, the originating location of
deposits made by City departments.
Image viewing of deposit tickets
Image viewing of cancelled checks
Image viewing of Positive Pay exception items
Stop payments
Funds transfers between accounts
The City shall not be charged or penalized for an overdraft if it is the result of the account
balance information not being available at the specified time.
The financial institution will provide float information on all deposited items.
Electronic Federal Tax Deposit System: The financial institution will provide the ability for
automatic withdrawal of payroll taxes by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS).
Services Not Provided: In the event that the primary proposing financial institution does not
provide all requested services included in this RFP, the financial institution will submit as part of
its proposal additional partners/providers which do provide these services. It is the sole
responsibility of the primary financial institution to secure and maintain the relationship with any
additional providers. The primary financial institution, at the time of bid submittal, will identify
all secondary providers.
Services Provided: In the event that the primary proposing financial institution provides
services not identified, the financial institution will include those items in the Bid Sheet under the
Charges for Services Not Identified Above section.

their testimony.
The Chair, subject to the concurrence of a majority of the Council, may establish time
limits and otherwise control presentations. (Suggested time limit is three minutes per
speaker or five minutes when presenting the official position of an organization or
group.) The Chair may change the order of speakers so that testimony is heard in the

to censure. The Council member who has stepped down shall not participate in the
Council decision nor vote on the matter. The Council member shall leave the Council
Chambers while the matter is under consideration, provided, however, that nothing herein
shall be interpreted to prohibit a Council member from stepping down in order to
participate in a hearing in which the Council member has a direct financial or other
personal interest

hearing and announces the following Rules of Order:
