A MOTION approving the implementation plan for investment of Puget Sound Taxpayer Accountability Account proceeds, in compliance with Motion 15492 and the 2019-2020 Biennial Budget Ordinance, Ordinance 18835, as amended by Ordinance 19022, Section 1, Proviso P1, as amended.
By your vote. We have given a do pass recommendation to ordinance 2020 279 and will expedite it to full council. So it will be in full council next Tuesday. Thank you very much. And with that, we move on to item six, a motion that would approve the implementation plan for the Puget Sound Taxpayer Accountability Act or Posture Process proceeds. We were first brief on this item before recess. And today, Erin Area and Patrick Hamacher from central staff are here to provide a refresher briefly on the on the legislation and also to brief the amendment that I have compiled based on input from you, my colleagues, this area. Mr. Hamacher, the call is yours. Thank you, Mr. Chair. Erin Area Council staff materials for this agenda item begin on page 81 of your packet. As a reminder, motion 15492 passed by the Council last August, directed the executive branch to allocate pasta proceeds with a specific funding structure for the implementation plan designed to support early learning facilities, King County Promise and the work of community based organizations. Proceeds are estimated to be 318 million over a 15 year period. Per the implementation plan, 7% of proceeds over the life of the account are set aside for evaluation and administration costs. Of that, up to 10% of those dollars each year may be used to provide for technical assistance and capacity building. The remaining proceeds would then be distributed among three funding categories. 52% is allocated for funding category one early learning facilities. Of these trends, seven and a half percent is dedicated to family and child care home provider facilities. The plan notes three investment types one maintain and improve existing family child care homes to renovate existing non home based facilities. And three invest in partnerships that results in the construction of new facilities. 38% is allocated for funding category to college career and technical education, also known as King County Promise and distributed as follows 45% to K-through-12 education, 45% to post-secondary education, and 10% to community based organizations. This funding structure will be used to fund two programs Promise Partnerships and a system supporting organization with the intent to foster collaboration between school districts, colleges and community organizations to create a pipeline of support for youth or pardon me, for young adults through post-secondary completion. And then 10% is allocated for funding Category three K through 12 community based organizations in the plan, a three year pilot administered by United Way, King County, known as Love and Liberation, will utilize participatory grant making to fund member organizations of the Racial Equity Coalition to provide direct services to the prioritized populations ages ten through 19. And if there are no questions on the background information, we are ready to move to a discussion of the amendments that you directed staff to prepare. Questions on the background are where would be starting from with the plan before getting to the amendment? And please continue. Okay. Now I will go over Amendment two. To be clear, the amendment that we are discussing is the one sent out this morning by Patrick Hamacher at 9:54 a.m. Includes one change from your packet that I will highlight in the Promise section and is also described in the email. For ease of discussion, I will walk through the changes in the red line version, which is attachment seven in your packet, but the final version being considered is consistent with what Patrick said. Note that a small but small technical corrections like spacing and standardizing terms will appear throughout the document, but it will only describe substantive changes. The first on page 319 of your packet in the Early Learning Facilities section. The word extreme is stricken before child care, access, deserts and ads or other types of areas after zip codes to broaden the definition of child care access deserts. This also appears on page 336 and for consistency on page 357 of your packet on three, page 359. The changes are consistent with the ones I just mentioned and add identification of other areas where there are statistically significant gaps in access to high quality learning facilities into consideration and development of analysis areas to be funded. So this change would give the executive authority to fund early learning facilities in areas that were not child care access deserts if there was a statistically significant gap in availability. There's no questions on that. The next section is promise. These amendments clarify the role. Are these changes, I should say, clarify the role of the system supporting organization? The first change in this section is on page 365 of your packet. But I also note that includes the modified language that Patrick sent this morning. The change sent this morning was a request from the executive branch to remove the word oversight to avoid confusion with the oversight role of the subcommittee. The change clarifies that the system supporting organization will work with King County to co-develop and oversee the implementation of promised related investments and to raise private funding. Next on page 366 of your packet. The amendment clarifies that the systems supporting organization will work with c y y a d staff on the development of our PS and contracts. Also on page 366, revised language designates a system supporting organization to review, edit and incorporate system and program commitments based on the initial commitments created by the Promise Work Group prior to funding promise partnerships in the original language CIA ADD staff would have brought the funded entities together after they were selected to co-develop a set of commitments. And then on page 367 of your packet, the sentence indicating intent to issue the first RFP in the in the first half of 2021 is struck in the next changes in the 11 Liberacion section on page 375, it directs Y ADI to develop an interim plan to address any gaps between the end of the three year 11 liberation pilot and the time at which it is replaced by another program. Lastly on page 388 of your packet, table 15 is added so that the evaluation timelines already noted in the plan are listed together in one section. And that concludes our summary. We'd be happy to take any questions you might have. We also have Sheela Kappa Sani, director of CROI Adi. Jackie Moynihan, Deputy Division Director of Housing, Homelessness and Community 12 Community Development Division, and Hannah Furber, Makani Post Implementation Manager with us. Thank you, Mr. Chair. Thank you. Question, colleagues. Mr. Chair, since nobody's saying anything, I have a comment. Well, yes, Councilmember. Do see. Thank you. I just want to say how delighted I am that we have a person whose title is pastor implementation manager. At the distance we have traveled from that first public meeting in Kent to today is remarkable and I just really look forward to doing the implementation plan and starting to be able to push funding out to these great organizations that are going to do the work. Thank you, Mr. Chair. Thank you. All right. Seeing no further questions and knowing that councilman, rebel councilman brought the growth. I feel bad. This is a big deal that we. Thank you, Mr. Chair. You're welcome. Councilman. Brotha, go. Oh. I feel that it's such a big deal that someone needs to make a comment. I think that I think this is really building upon the work of best starts for kids and the Veterans and Human Services levy by implementing a really community focused model of driving money out different than we did 20 years ago. Not we wasn't here, but in each of these categories we really are relying upon processes where those that are most impacted by inequities are going to be leading the work to address those issues, both with the racial equity team and K-12 and both with the partnering organization and the promise part. And just a reminder that we I think we did really good work as a council to focus our dollars, I think, where the legislative sponsor hoped we would at those students who fall behind the most kids of color, immigrant refugee students, LGBT kids, foster kids, homeless youth, and focusing where the data shows us the gaps are the greatest on K-3 readiness and post-college post-high school success. And so I just wanted to take a moment and celebrate how far we've come. Thank the executive branch, Sheila Kafka standing and her team for their good work. And you, Mr. Chair, for shepherding through these the complex details and committed to peer support. In you. Thank you. So I agree this has been a long time coming with a lot of good work and leaving it in the very beginning and everybody having such amazing input over the process. So I think I think Dave's right. We should be celebrating that. We've done a good job here. One of the things I wanted to point out is one of our categories is disproportionality and kindergarten readiness. And with what's happening with COVID and a lot of kindergartners not being able to go to kindergarten, and I know that I had in my garage, much to my husband's chagrin, my old classroom is sitting in there and all of a sudden people were interested in my old teaching supplies, which are now out in other homes, which is lovely, but a lot of people don't don't have the supplies, don't really know exactly what to do, and would love to have more feedback. More opportunities are easily presented. So as we look at some of the things that we're doing, if we could put them online for other parents who have now been thrust into becoming teachers to even be on the people that we're directly serving but have the resources available, I think that might be a really good thing at this point. And COVID to be able to help even more families than we ever dreamed we would be reaching. And I see Sheila nodding her head and taking notes. So thank you, Mr. Chair. Thank you. Mr. Chair. Council Member Coles. Thank you, Mr. Chair. Well, I am very, very appreciative of all the effort that's gone into this legislation in terms of their presentation of pasta. I do not know how many meetings have taken place over the last three or four years on this. Does anybody have a record of that? Any staff person, perhaps a Sheila? There have been so many Sheila just in terms of council meetings, committee meetings. I think Claudia Balducci was chair of the committee of the whole and we started off. Does that come? You're muted, Claudia. I believe I was, yes. So long ago it was. And we had, I think, our first meeting out in the community in Auburn. And we've come so far from there. And there's been an incredible amount of work on our part, but also, of course, with staff and community organizations. I think also of the committee of the hall meetings we've had this year when we've taken up pastor and a very huge amount of individuals who are providing public comment, some of them not happy with what the language was at that time. And we have worked with everybody and council and council committee of the whole chair. McDermott, I think has done a fabulous job in terms of pulling all this together, and that's reflected in the striking amendments before us. But I notice today when we had public comment, we did not have that dismay, opposition concern, you name it. People have really come on board and I know that there have been a great number of meetings with the organizations involved who have been visiting us, emailing us, giving us recommendations, speaking at the committee, the whole public comment periods. I agree this is a real success. I think we can all be very pleased with what we're going forward with. So I just wanted to express that and how pleased to be able to vote on this today. Even better next Tuesday. All right, then. If we want to vote on it today, I'm not going to let anybody else think we're going to take a motion. Councilmember Colwell, would you be kind enough to put the item before us? Yes. Thank you, Mr. Chair. I move a motion number 2020 0249 to give an object as recommendations to the council. Councilmember calls has moved adoption of Motion 2020 249. Councilmember Caldwell's Will you be kind enough to move Amendment two? That was emailed to us at 954 this morning by Patrick Hamacher. I'd be glad to. Mr. Chair, I move the amendment number two. Thank you. And this is the email that Ms.. Area briefed just moments ago. Senior Discussing an amendment to all those in favor.
