Title
A RESOLUTION approving an interlocal agreement with the city of Snoqualmie regarding the City of Snoqualmie Home Elevations Project.
Body
WHEREAS, the King County Flood Control District ("District") and City of Snoqualmie ("City") have identified twenty-four (24) parcels with homes situated in flood-prone floodways or floodplains and at risk of repetitive flooding located between Walnut Street and Northern Street in the City of Snoqualmie, Washington ("Parcels"), and
WHEREAS, homes situated in flood-prone floodways or floodplains and at risk of repetitive flooding can benefit from a home elevation which raises the finished floor of a home above the 100-year elevation, substantially reducing the threat of future damage, thus allowing residents to remain on the property while preserving existing local housing, and
WHEREAS, to address these issues, the District has included the City of Snoqualmie Home Elevations Project ("Project") in the District's annual budget and work program for fiscal year 2024, as adopted through Resolution FCD2023-10, and
WHEREAS, the City desires to utilize the District’s funding to implement a Home Elevation Program for eligible expenses associated with the elevation of the Parcels, provided the identified homeowners are willing to voluntarily participate in the Project, and
WHEREAS, the City has agreed to serve as the District's service provider for the Project under the terms of an Interlocal Agreement ("Agreement");
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS OF THE KING COUNTY FLOOD CONTROL ZONE DISTRICT:
SECTION 1. The board of supervisors approves the Agreement for the City of Snoqualmie Home Elevations Project between the King County Flood Control Zone
District and the City of Snoqualmie, "Attachment A" to this resolution, and authorizes the chair to sign the Agreement.
