      1.  Receive a new maintenance site and facility;
      2.  Receive three million dollars in cash; and
      3.  Have the purchaser clean up any contaminated soil encountered during the development of the Upland Parcel at their expense, and
      WHEREAS, King County Metro transit concluded, after reviewing the feasibility of the offer, that it was of exceptional value to the county, and
      WHEREAS, the transit division seeks to divest itself of the North Lake Union upper parcel if certain terms and conditions can be met, and
      WHEREAS, Ordinance 15083, which adopted the 2005 annual budget for King County, provided for the funding of certain capital improvement projects, and
      WHEREAS, Ordinance 15083 included the provision requiring the King County executive to submit to the King County council a request for proposals offering a cash only alternative to the above criteria;
      NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT MOVED by the Council of King County:
      The King County executive is hereby authorized to advertise for sale to the
