PHYSICAL ENVIRONMENT PROGRAM AREA INTRODUCTION The King County Physical Environment departments support services related to building and land use permitting; community and regional parks; various recreational programs; solid waste disposal; surface water management; wastewater treatment; road and bridge maintenance and improvement in the unincorporated area; and transit operations. These services are delivered by three county departments: Department of Natural Resources and Parks (DNRP), Department of Permitting and Environmental Review (DPER), and Department of Transportation (DOT). These departments are supported by dedicated funding sources and provide services that enhance the quality of life and economic vitality of the Puget Sound region. The Department of Natural Resources and Parks (DNRP) serves as the steward of the region’s environment. DNRP protects the region’s water and land and natural habitats by ensuring the safe disposal of and reuse of wastewater and solid waste, and providing natural areas, parks, regional trails and recreation programs. It provides these services through five divisions: DNRP Administration, Wastewater Treatment Division, Water and Land Resources Division, Solid Waste Division, and the Parks and Recreation Division. The Department of Permitting and Environmental Review (DPER) is responsible for regulating and permitting all building and land use activity in unincorporated King County. DPER is primarily an enterprise fund, with a permit review and inspection program that supports itself with fees charged to permit applicants. In addition, DPER’s code enforcement program is supported primarily by the General Fund. The Department of Transportation (DOT) provides services related to public transportation, community outreach on transportation issues, road construction and maintenance, regional aviation, passenger ferry service, and fleet management. It provides these services through six divisions: the DOT Director’s Office, Transit Division, Marine Division, the King County International Airport, Road Services Division, and Fleet Administration. PHYSICAL ENVIRONMENT PROGRAM AREA DEPARTMENT OF NATURAL RESOURCES AND PARKS ADMINISTRATION Mission Provide regional parks and trails, protect the region’s water, air, land, natural habitats and historic properties, and reduce, safely dispose of, and create resources from wastewater and solid waste. Overview The Department of Natural Resources and Parks Administration (DNRP Admin) provides leadership, oversight, and support to the department’s four operational divisions: Parks and Recreation, Solid Waste, Wastewater Treatment, and Water and Land Resources. In addition, DNRP Admin provides oversight and administration to the King County Historic Preservation Program (HPP), Community Service Area Program (CSA), and the County’s Strategic Climate Action Plan (SCAP). DNRP Admin is organized into four main sections: Administration, the King County Historic Preservation Program, the Community Service Area Program, and the Strategic Climate Action Plan section. HPP is responsible for designating and protecting significant historic and archaeological sites within the unincorporated area of King County and in eighteen cities that have agreements with the County for these services. HPP is funded primarily by a $1 document recording fee surcharge accounted for in the Historical Preservation and Historic Programs Fund (HPHP) created in 2010. The CSA program is aimed at increasing public engagement with unincorporated areas of King County and is funded by various agencies through the CSA allocation model. The SCAP section’s climate goals are advanced by several initiatives that are designed to improve King County’s environmental stewardship of its resources and create the foundation from which the Department can launch other climate mitigation and adaptation initiatives. The SCAP is funded by various agencies through the climate allocation model which is based on greenhouse gas emissions of the paying agencies. The DNRP Admin appropriation unit A38100 is located in the Solid Waste Operating Fund 000004040. The HPHP Fund is Fund number 000001471. PHYSICAL ENVIRONMENT PROGRAM AREA 2017-2018 Problems, Opportunities and Priorities The 2017‐2018 DNRP Admin budget includes a consolidation of SCAP costs into a central climate cost center. Previously, these costs were budgeted and paid for by several divisions throughout the County. This change will lead to increased efficiencies in paying invoices and reporting on costs. These central climate related costs include regulatory dues to the Puget Sound Clean Air Agency; funding to support climate partnerships, memberships, reporting and consulting; and funding for four climate staff positions, three of which use existing FTE authority. These positions are the major addition from last biennium; three of the four were recommended in the 2015 King County Strategic Climate Action Plan (SCAP) and the fourth is the existing Director of Climate and Energy Initiatives who is responsible for leading the effort on confronting climate change in the County. These costs are charged to departments based on their operational greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions with DNRP and the Department of Transportation paying the majority and Facilities Management Division paying a smaller amount. Alignment with Executive Strategic Initiatives Equity and Social Justice DNRP Admin provides leadership and coordination of department Equity and Social Justice (ESJ) efforts by: Providing technical assistance for Divisions in applying the Equity Impact Review process/tool, community engagement guide, and related tools Mapping the status and trends of determinants of equity that align to DNRP functions. Evaluating employee survey data and using ESJ audit tools to guide and track workplace practice improvements. Developing and delivering training that informs, engages and empowers staff, sections and work units in advancing the ESJ policy intent. Coordinating department ESJ team and work program development and monitoring and Serving as DNRP liaison to the ESJ Inter‐branch team and committees. PHYSICAL ENVIRONMENT PROGRAM AREA Strategic Climate Action Plan (SCAP) In addition to the creation of the SCAP section described above, DNRP Admin is taking these actions in 2017‐2018: Continue the Carbon Neutral Pilot program to help the department achieve carbon neutrality by 2017. Each division sets aside funds based on a proportion of its energy consumption that is then invested in energy efficiency and GHG reduction projects. Continue the Energy Conservation Initiative, which includes providing support and guidance to county agencies on how to reduce energy usage, helping with applying for energy grants, and conducting energy audits at several DNRP facilities to determine where improvements can be made. Establish a Green Bond Program to expand the base of investors who invest in King County and generate greater awareness of the climate centric initiatives underway at the County. Best Run Government DNRP Admin has created a new Chief Administrative Officer who in addition to tracking division level efforts related to ESJ, SCAP, efficiency, and employee engagement goals within the department, will also ensure that the department’s business functions and administrative operations are effectively managed to successfully support the department’s services and goals and the County Strategic Plan. This position will increase coordination and collaboration inside and outside of the department. Higher employee engagement corresponds with increased attendance productivity, lower rates of absenteeism, lower turnover, and improved service to customers. 2017-2018 Executive Proposed Operating Budget NATURAL RESOURCES AND PARKS ADMINISTRATION (EN_A38100) Operating Budget Summary Expenditures Revenues Reg FTE TLT 2015-2016 Revised Budget 13,436,591 13,412,187 29.3 0.0 Base Budget Adjustments 267,354 148,933 (0.5) 0.0 Decision Package Adjustments 2,544,645 2,687,470 3.3 0.0 2017-2018 Executive Proposed Budget 16,248,590 16,248,590 32.0 0.0 2017-2018 Executive Proposed Ordinance 16,249,000 16,249,000 32.0 0.0 Notes 1.

  • SOUND TRANSIT MOTION NO. M99-46 Revised Policy Regarding
    SOUND TRANSIT MOTION NO. M99-46 Revised policy regarding advertising on Sound Transit vehicles and at transit facilities and stations BACKGROUND AND COMMENTS Meeting: Date: Type of action: Staff contact: Phone: Public & Government 7/2/99 Discussion Betty Laurs 206-398-5120 Affairs Recommendation Board of Directors 7/8/99 Discussion/Possible Action Tim Healy 206-398-5062 ACTION: Motion No. M99-46 would revise and supersede Motion No. 98-79 adopting a policy allowing advertising on Sound Transit vehicles and at transit facilities and stations to: 1. Exempt coaches leased or purchased from partner agencies that already have revenue-generating advertising on them from a six-month moratorium period allowing only Sound Transit self- promotion advertising, and 2. Allow Sound Transit the option of contracting directly with an outside vendor to sell, produce, install, maintain and remove advertising on any or all of its fleet after the six-month period of self-promotion on new vehicles. BACKGROUND: In negotiating agreements with Community Transit, King County Metro and Pierce Transit to operate Sound Transit services, it has become evident that the agency’s adopted advertising policy requires some minor modifications. 1. Exempt coaches leased or purchased from partner agencies that already have revenue-generating advertising on them from a six-month moratorium period allowing only Sound Transit self- promotion advertising The previously adopted policy stipulates that only advertising for the agency and its services be allowed for six months after service is launched to avoid distract from Sound Transit's identity. It was originally assumed that ST would only use new coaches purchased directly from manufacturers.
