DATE: February 24, 2014
SUBJECT: Approval of an Agreement Extension to the Professional Services
Contract between Hood Canal Coordinating Council and Department
of Community Development for In -lieu Fee Grant
STATEMENT OF ISSUE:
Jefferson County Department of Community Development (DCD) has been participating as an Interagency Review
Team (IRT) member for an In -lieu Fee mitigation (ILF) program since October 2011 and has been working on an
ILF grant since July 1, 2012, The Board of County Commissioners (BoCC) authorized DCD to work on this grant
on October 1, 2012 and the grant was to end by December 31, 2013. However, Hood Canal Coordinating Council
(HCCC), the project consultant, and the member counties were not able to complete all the grant tasks prior to the
deadline. Washington Department of Ecology extended the grant deadline for HCCC until April 30, 2014. HCCC
is requesting that Jefferson County (and other member counties) sign an Agreement Extension. This grant extension
would allow DCD to continue working on the ILF grant until April 30, 2014.
The ILF program provides an applicant with another mitigation option for development conducted near aquatic
resources (e.g., shorelines, critical areas, buffers). Applicants now have an opportunity to write a check to cover the
cost of mitigation (and HCCC would be responsible for developing and implementing a mitigation project) rather
than the applicant being held responsible for preparing and implementing mitigation.
ANALYSIS /STRATEGIC GOALS/PROS and CONS:
The benefit of approving the HCCC Agreement Extension is that DCD can continue to work on this grant and
complete some of the grant tasks. Work on this grant brings revenue in to DCD. There are no negative ramifications
of approving the agreement extension.
The Professional Services Contract was reviewed by David Alvarez and approved as to form prior to BoCC signature
on October 1, 2012. The language of the Agreement Extension does not change the Professional Services Contract
except for the grant end date (Agreement Extension revises the due date from December 31, 2013 to April 30, 2014).
FISCAL IMPACT /COST- BENEFIT ANALYSIS:
The budget for this fiscal year is based on DCD bringing in $10,000 from the ILF grant. The grant match is being
paid by HCCC; therefore, no additional funds from the County would be needed to continue working on this grant.
Consent Agenda
RECOMMENDATION:
DCD recommends that the BoCC authorize the Agreement Extension to the Professional Services Contract between
HCCC and DCD.
