body
STATEMENT OF FACTS:
1.  In 1988, King County and the city of Bothell entered into a solid waste interlocal agreement ("the original ILA"), which provided that the county designate solid waste management facilities for all waste generated or collected within the corporate boundaries of the city and prohibited the city from diverting waste from the designated facilities without King County approval.
2.  In July 2011, The King County council passed Ordinance 17112 amending the original ILA with the city of Bothell to allow solid waste generated in areas of Snohomish county annexed to the city after January 1, 2011, to be disposed through the Snohomish county solid waste system rather than the King County system.  The resulting amendment is referred to as Amendment No. 1 to the original ILA.
3.  Also in July 2011, King County entered into an interlocal agreement with Snohomish county which allowed Snohomish county to enter into an agreement with the city of Bothell to dispose of solid waste generated in areas of Snohomish county annexed to the city after January 1, 2011, through the Snohomish county system.
4.  Working with a group of cities, agreement was reached in 2012 on an amended and restated interlocal agreement ("the new ILA") that will be effective through December 31, 2040.
5.  The new ILA continues the interjurisdictional collaborative approach to system planning and will ensure the continued management of waste in a cost-effective manner.
6.  The new ILA provides that the city shall authorize the county to designate disposal sites for the disposal of all solid waste and moderate risk waste which is authorized to be delivered to the county's solid waste system in accordance with all applicable federal, state and local environmental health laws, rules or regulations and is generated and/or collected within the corporate limits of the city, except for solid waste which is eliminated through waste prevention or waste recycling activities consistent with the King County Comprehensive Solid Waste Management Plan.
7.  The city of Bothell and the county wish to amend the new ILA so that solid waste generated and/or collected from areas of Snohomish county that may be annexed into the city after January 1, 2011, remains in Snohomish county's solid waste system.  This amendment is consistent with Amendment No. 1 to the original ILA.
8.  The city of Bothell's approval of the new ILA is contingent upon the county's approval of Amendment No. 1.
      BE IT ORDAINED BY THE COUNCIL OF KING COUNTY:
      SECTION 1.  The King County executive is hereby authorized to enter into
Amendment No. 1 to the new ILA with the city of Bothell substantially in the form of Attachment A to this ordinance.
