Periodically, when the city conducts a salary survey regarding its nonrepresented employees, and whenever a vacancy occurs in one of the positions listed in this chapter, the city council may review the specifications for the appointive officer position(s) and revise them as needed before acting to confirm a permanent appointment. Nothing in this subsection shall be construed to prevent the city council from reviewing such specifications at other times. The council’s revising of a specification will not have any effect on a previously confirmed permanent appointment. Recruitment to fill a vacant appointive office may be postponed until after the city council acts to revise the specifications or determines them not to be in need of revision. B. The mayor or his/her designee will review all applications and determine the persons with the highest qualifications. Any city council member, upon request to the mayor, may review the applications received for a vacant position. Additionally and/or alternatively, the city council may evaluate the qualifications of an applicant for public employment in executive session pursuant to RCW 42.30.110(1)(g). C. If, on occasion of a vacant appointive office, the mayor elects to propose a reorganization of the appointive offices which would alter the specifications of the vacant appointive office, he/she shall have 60 days from the date of the vacancy to introduce a reorganization proposal to the city council along with any necessary accompanying budget amendment.

The city council shall interview the top three candidates for each position prior to the mayor’s appointment; provided, that the city council may waive the three-interview requirement by motion adopted by a majority plus one of the full council and may opt to interview as few as two candidates for any vacant appointive office; and further provided, that when an appointive office becomes vacant, or is about to become vacant, again within nine months of the city council’s confirmation of the last mayoral appointment to that office, the city council may waive an additional round of interviews, by motion adopted by a majority plus one of the full council, and proceed immediately to confirming the appointment of a candidate interviewed by the city council during the most recent recruitment for that appointive office. The mayor’s appointments to all other employee positions shall not be subject to city council confirmation. E. The mayor shall have the authority to appoint, without city council confirmation, an acting officer to perform the functions and duties of a vacant, funded appointive office, subject to the term limitations described in ECC 2.10.040(B); provided, that there is budgetary authority to fill the position. The city council shall be given written notice about any such acting appointments including the effective date of the appointment. Acting officers shall be compensated pursuant to applicable ordinances and personnel policies regarding acting pay. An appointive office will be deemed vacant: (1) as of the date the appointive officer has been separated from employment; or (2) prior to the date of separation if the mayor has made a final decision to separate the employment of the appointive officer and such appointive officer has been placed on leave and will no longer be performing any of the functions or duties of such appointive office.

If, during that six-month period, the administration has not been able to generate sufficient interest from suitable candidates to satisfy the city council interview requirement (see ECC 2.10.010(D)), the mayor may request an extension of acting office authority from the city council, in increments of no more than six months at a time, to allow the recruiting process to continue. After the initial six-month term, each extension of the acting office shall be subject to city council confirmation. Similarly, any employment agreement or services contract beyond a six-month term shall require city council approval. C.

After meetings and discussions with you on the scope of services, we understand the first phase will be Stage 3 (from 244th to ~ 400’ north of 238th) on Highway 99. A separate contract and scope of services will be developed for Stage 4 (from 224th to 220th). For both stages, SCJ Alliance (SCJ) is the lead consulting engineering for roadway improvements. The work developed under this contract will be folded into the larger construction packages for the roadway. Stage 3 has secured all necessary funding for design and construction, with no Federal funding, with an approximate duration of 24 months from notice to proceed to final bid documents. Urban design features could include landscape, paving treatments, signs, or small structures. Preliminary opportunity areas for urban design enhancements have been identified in Exhibit B. Examples of those urban design features are shown in pages 1 through 3 on Exhibit C from the City of Edmonds. We also understand that public art may be of interest, and a separate task is included below to assist in the solicitation process, selection and coordination with possible public artist(s). Examples of public art are shown on page 4 of Exhibit C. MLA Engineering is also joining our team as a subconsultant to assist with structural engineering for the possibility of larger urban design features. Our proposed scope of work will permit modification as we progress through the design process. The tasks that we are proposing for your project includes the following: PROJECT MANAGEMENT 1.1 Monthly Reporting & Invoicing a) Prepare and provide monthly reports with invoices. The project timeline is estimated to be 24 months from notice to proceed. 1.2 Biweekly Coordination Meetings with the City a) Attend bi-weekly virtual meetings with the City throughout the project, up to be 15 to 20 minutes in duration each. Formal meeting notes will not be produced for these coordination meetings, but follow-up emails will be provided for critical items discussed. 1.3 Project Schedule a) Develop and maintain a project schedule through the project.

The Target Zero Manager (TZM) and/or the Law Enforcement Liaison (LEL) shall coordinate theSOW with the SUB-RECIPIENT with the goal of reducing traffic crashes.WTSC grant 2026-HVE-5732-Region 10 HVE was awarded to the WTSC Region 10 to supportcollaborative efforts to conduct HVE activities. By signing this agreement, the SUB-RECIPIENT can seekreimbursement for straight time or overtime for approved law enforcement activity expenses incurred asa participant in the region’s HVE grant.2.PERIOD OF PERFORMANCEThe period of performance of this Agreement shall commence upon the date of execution by both parties,but not earlier than October 1, 2025, and remain in effect until September 30, 2026 unless terminatedsooner, as provided herein.3.SCOPE OF WORK3.1.1 Problem ID and/or OpportunityIn 2023, Washington State experienced the deadliest year on its roads since 1990. The trajectory of thisrise in fatalities reflects a broader trend of increasing impairment-related crashes, speeding, andcompounding issues in law enforcement, medical, and judicial systems. This uptick in fatal crashes isdeeply intertwined with impaired driving, law enforcement challenges, and societal impacts.Page 1 of 20   Item 2.5       Packet pg. 35/72 A Decade of Increasing Traffic FatalitiesThe rise in fatalities has been both sharp and persistent:•2015 saw a drastic 19.3% increase in traffic fatalities, the largest single-year jump since data collectionbegan in 1968.•Following this spike, fatalities stabilized between 2015 and 2019.•In 2020, despite pandemic-related reductions in traffic volume, fatalities climbed 6.7%, from 538 to 574.•The situation worsened in 2021-2023, when fatalities surged by 20.2%, from 674 in 2021 to 810 in 2023,the highest number since 1990. This five-year increase represents the most rapid rise in traffic fatalitiesrecorded in Washington State's history.•Pedestrian fatalities were a record-high of 157 in 2023 and pedestrian serious injuries reached 472, alsoa record high for the state.This project will fund locally coordinated enforcement mobilizations to address impaired driving,distracted driving, seat belt safety, speeding, and motorcycle safety. Funding and events will be organizedby local Target Zero Managers (TZMs) & the statewide Law Enforcement Liaison networks and their localTarget Zero Task Force. These patrols will also be coordinated with the Washington State Patrol (WSP).Target Zero Managers will establish or strengthen relationships with key WSP district personnel toimprove interagency coordination.3.1.2 Project Purpose and StrategiesThis project will fund High Visibility Enforcement (HVE) and Traffic Safety Enforcement Program (TSEP)patrols to prevent impaired driving, distracted driving, seat belt use, speeding, and motorcycle safety.High Visibility Enforcement (HVE) and Traffic Safety Enforcement Program (TSEP) patrols are designedto create deterrence by increasing the expectation of a citation/fine/arrest. Officers may also removehigh risk (impaired) drivers when encountered. So together, this countermeasure works by preventingdangerous driving behaviors and stopping those who still decide to engage in those behaviors.Funding and events will be organized by local TZMs, LELs, and their local Target Zero Task Force. Taskforces will use local data and professional judgement to determine enforcement priorities for theirjurisdictions and will schedule and plan enforcement and outreach activities. Regional participation in thefollowing National Campaigns is mandatory:•Impaired driving enforcement during the Holiday DUI campaign (December 2025).•Distracted driving enforcement during the Distracted Driving campaign (April 2026)•Seat belt enforcement during the Click It or Ticket campaign (May 2026).•Impaired driving enforcement during the Summer DUI campaign (August 2026).These patrols will also be coordinated with the Washington State Patrol (WSP). Target Zero Managerswill establish or strengthen relationships with key WSP district personnel to improve interagencycoordination with the WSP.3.1.3 Requirements for National Mobilizations and Traffic Safety Enforcement Program (TSEP)3.1.3.1.HVE events will be data informed; based on crash data, anecdotal evidence, and the professionaljudgement of task force members. WTSC strongly believes in the expertise of local officers to understandPage 2 of 20   Item 2.5       Packet pg. 36/72 the highest priority areas in their communities to focus their efforts.3.1.3.2.The SUB-RECIPIENT will ensure that all officers participating in these patrols are BAC certifiedand have received and passed the SFST refresher training.3.1.3.3.SUB-RECIPIENT will ensure all officers participating in Impaired Driving patrols have also receivedAdvanced Roadside Impaired Driving Enforcement (ARIDE) training.3.1.3.4.SUB-RECIPIENT shall ensure all participating personnel will use the WEMS system provided bythe WTSC to record all activities in digital activity logs conducted by their commissioned officerspursuant to the HVE events. Participating officers will fill out all applicable fields of the digital activity logand use the comments field to provide details on irregularities, challenges or other details that would helpexplain what was encountered during their shift. SUB- RECIPIENT will also ensure all supervisors andfiscal staff have the ability to review and edit those activity logs.3.1.4 Project Intent and Best Practice3.1.4.1.SUB-RECIPIENT is encouraged to help their Region Task Force fulfill the requirement toparticipate in the four mandatory National Campaigns. (Holiday DUI campaign in December 2025,Distracted Driving campaign in April 2026, Click It or Ticket campaign in May 2026, and Summer DUIcampaign in August 2026).NOTE: Agencies must participate in speed or impaired driving enforcement under this agreement to beeligible to receive funding under the WASPC equipment grant.3.1.4.2.SUB-RECIPIENT is strongly encouraged to participate in their task force to plan and executeenforcement events.3.1.4.3.Regional task force will be submitting quarterly progress reports and SUB-RECIPIENT isencouraged to participate to the fullest extent possible. Quarterly progress reports are due January 15,April 15, July 15, and October 15.3.1.4.4.WTSC encourages participating officers to prioritize violations that directly contribute to the injuryand death of road users, such as impaired driving, speeding, distracted driving, non-restraint, etc.3.1.4.5.SUB-RECIPIENT should promote patrol events through all earned, owned and, if funded, paidmedia that is available so that the public is made aware of the event before, during, and after theenforcement takes place. It is best practice to translate messages as needed and invite local mediainvolvement in the effort to reach communities in which HVE will occur.3.1.4.6.SUB-RECIPIENT should strive to actively enforce traffic safety laws focused on collision causingbehaviors in priority areas throughout the year outside of HVE events.3.1.4.7.When participating in motorcycle patrols SUB-RECIPIENT should focus on the illegal and unsafePage 3 of 20   Item 2.5       Packet pg. 37/72 driving actions of all motor vehicles interacting with motorcycles. This includes speeding, failure to yieldto a motorcycle, following too closely to a motorcycle, distracted driving, etc.3.1.4.8.When participating in motorcycle patrols SUB-RECIPIENT should ensure that enforcement willfocus on the illegal and unsafe driving actions of motorcycles that are known to cause serious and fatalcrashes. This includes impaired driving, speeding, and following too closely.3.1.4.9.Performance will be monitored by the regional TZM, LEL, and Task Force, as well as WTSC. WTSCreserves the right to designate specific officers as ineligible for cost reimbursement. This will occur if anofficer is determined to not have not met the purpose/intent of this grant in multiple emphasis patrols.3.1.4.10.Funds can be used to support the mentoring of officers in traffic enforcement. This can befocused on impaired driving, or general traffic enforcement.For DUI mentorship, WTSC has found it to be best practice to include a mix of instruction and practicalexperience. The mentor should be a DRE when possible, or a highly effective DUI emphasis patrol officerwith a minimum of ARIDE training. Mentor/mentee activities will be pre-approved by the TZM or LEL afterthe mentee submits their interest.3.1.4.11.Community outreach/collaboration: Funds can be used to pay for traffic safety focusedcommunity outreach and collaboration activities. The operational approach for regional communityoutreach and collaboration activities should be developed at the Task Force level and be approved by theWTSC. WTSC recommends that these activities include an opportunity for the audience to providefeedback on local traffic safety priorities and activities, which ideally will influence the region's plan fortraffic safety programming.3.1.4.12.In order to receive funding from this grant, agencies must participate with the regional trafficsafety task force/coalition in the planning efforts for these activities.3.1.4.13.WTSC also encourages all law enforcement agencies in Washington to utilize WTSC's dataanalysis resources, such as interactive dashboards and data from a statewide attitudinal survey, as welltheir regional Target Zero Manager to identify priorities for engaging with the community.3.1.4.14.WTSC will provide tools for documenting community collaboration activities, such as the WEMSactivity log.3.1.5 NATIONAL AND STATE-WIDE MOBILIZATIONSNot all agencies are required to participate in all of the mobilizations listed below.

BUDGET: Total Dollar Amount:N/A ☒ Approved in Budget Fund(s):N/A ☐ Budget Reallocation Required ☐ No Budget Impact PROBLEM/ISSUE STATEMENT: For 2026 we need this contract approved so our animal control efforts can continue seamlessly. CONTEXT, ANALYSIS, & ALTERNATIVES: The Police Department maintains an agreement with PAWS as part of our Animal Control efforts. The PAWS facility is used by our staff and residents to shelter and re-home dogs and cats, rehabilitate injured or orphaned wildlife, and care for homeless pets. There are limited options in Snohomish County for these services and PAWS is local to the Lynnwood/South County Region. The City of Edmonds has partnered with PAWS for 10+ years for kenneling and animal services. We need this contract as it provides a facility for our animal control officer to take animals. The Edmonds Police department otherwise has has no facilities to house animals in need of shelter. PAWS costs are negotiated in this agreement. PAWS charges the city a per animal fee that includes any and all services associated with that animal and up to 72 hours of kenneling. A per day fee beyond the 72 hours is levied if they keep the animal housed longer, which must be requested by the city in writing. Pet owners must pay a fee to PAWS when claiming their animal. This fee offsets what PAWS charges the city by a nominal amount (ex. City is charged $248 to drop off the animal, the owner pays $20 to claim it back). Entering this agreement with PAWS will not impact the current budget. We have a budget line for PAWS fees within professional services. For 2025, we set this budget at $19,000 and have spent $16,496 through the month of October. We have budgeted $19,000 again for 2026, do not anticipate costs going above this amount. RECOMMENDATION: Staff is requesting that the council approve this contract for the 1/13 consent agenda, so the Mayor can sign it. BUDGET IMPACTS:   Item 2.6       Packet pg. 55/72 There is no general fund impact as this cost was included in our 2026 budget.

WITNESS my hand and official seal hereto affixed the day and year first above written. NOTARY PUBLIC My commission expires:   Item 2.6       Packet pg. 64/72 2026 Animal Kenneling Services Agreement, Page 7 7   Item 2.6       Packet pg. 65/72 2026 Animal Kenneling Services Agreement, Page 8 8 Exhibit A 1. Undertakings of PAWS. 1.1 PAWS will furnish animal kenneling services to the City. Such services shall be provided following the best practices for animal shelters as established by the “Association of Shelter Veterinarians Guidelines for Standards of Care in Animal Shelters.” To prevent the spread of disease, PAWS will follow medical protocols for vaccines and parasite prevention as established by the PAWS veterinary team. If an impounded animal from the City requires additional medical care during the applicable holding period, as set forth in paragraph 1.6, below, PAWS will notify the City as soon as practicable that such medical care services will be provided. PAWS will seek reimbursement for such services from the animal’s owner and not from the City; unless the City has instructed PAWS to provide the additional specific care for the animal(s). Animal kenneling services provided pursuant to this Agreement shall include kenneling and holding animals at the facility operated by PAWS, releasing animals to owners, taking photographs of animals to post online as appropriate, and disposing of animals in a responsible and lawful manner, including adoption or transferring to another agency animals not claimed by owners after the period prescribed by ordinance and this Agreement. PAWS will provide spaying and neutering and microchipping services in conjunction with its adoption services, and not as part of its kenneling services. Spaying/neutering and microchipping will also be offered to guardians reclaiming their stray cat or dog. Guardians reclaiming their animal will pay for spaying and neutering services; and all adopted animals will be microchipped, spayed or neutered, provided it is deemed medically safe by the PAWS veterinarian, per PAWS’ policy. PAWS will be open during its ordinary, established business hours for stray and lost-and-found services. 1.2 In addition to animals brought in by the City’s Animal Control, other City officials, or citizens, PAWS agrees to accept animals seized or found within the city limits of Edmonds that are brought to PAWS by Lynnwood or Mountlake Terrace Animal Control officers under mutual aid when Edmonds has no Animal Control on duty. Mutual Aid for the purposes of this Agreement means only those animals that have been picked up within the city limits of Edmonds by Lynnwood or Mountlake Terrace Animal Control officers. 1.3 PAWS shall provide veterinary care at the discretion of PAWS’ Senior Director of Wildlife, Companion Animal & Education Services or, in her absence, her designated representative (collectively “Shelter Manager”). If agreed upon by the Shelter Manager and a licensed veterinarian, ill or injured stray animals, whether licensed or not, whose owners cannot be notified, because the animal has no identification that is traceable or the owner cannot be reached by a single phone call, may be euthanized if the animal is in pain that cannot be relieved by such care as the shelter staff can reasonably provide. PAWS shall have a policy and procedure to follow to euthanize the animal and to reach the owner. When reasonably possible, PAWS shall recover costs from the owner of the animal for such veterinary treatment prior to release of the animal or euthanasia procedure. Unclaimed and unadoptable animals will be humanely euthanized and disposed of off-site. Disposal within the terms of this Agreement also includes disposal of dead animals that are picked up by the City as part of its animal control services or animals that die in PAWS’ care. PAWS, at its discretion, may decline to provide disposal services for residents   Item 2.6       Packet pg. 66/72 2026 Animal Kenneling Services Agreement, Page 9 9 of the City when the deceased animal in question is owned by the resident or his/her immediate family, and/or has been euthanized by a private veterinarian. 1.4 PAWS agrees to abide by and strictly follow any and all procedures of Chapter 5.05 of the Edmonds City Code (“ECC”), as now and hereafter amended, regulating animals, particularly as they relate to the length of impoundment before disposing of any animals. PAWS and the City agree that Chapter 5.05 ECC, as now or hereafter amended, shall be incorporated by reference herein and shall be part of this Agreement as if set forth in full herein. 1.5 PAWS agrees not to release any kenneled animal to any person until PAWS is reasonably satisfied that the person has paid all applicable license, kenneling, and other fees to the appropriate agency, including the City. The City shall be responsible for the preparation of all reporting, fee collection and any accounting relating to such reporting and collecting. 1.6 Except as provided in paragraphs 1.3 and 1.4 above, PAWS agrees not to dispose of any animal before seventy-two (72) hours upon receipt of receiving said animal from the City, excluding previously designated holidays being observed by PAWS, nor shall PAWS release any animal which has not been either spayed or neutered by a veterinarian in accordance with procedures established by the City or has been designated by an agent of the City or such veterinarian as an inappropriate candidate for surgery, as such term is defined in Chapter 5.05 ECC. Licensed, tagged, or identifiable animals will be held for ten (10) days by PAWS. Animals held under RCW 16.52.085 will be held for fifteen (15) business days. 1.7 If not claimed by an owner during the applicable holding period, an animal shall immediately become the property of PAWS. Disposition of the animal is then at PAWS’ discretion; provided, however, that: PAWS shall not dispose of the animal while any legal proceedings of which it has notice and relating to the disposition of that animal are pending or in contravention of any court order of which it has notice. 1.8 PAWS and the City agree to work collaboratively on promoting adoptions of those animals brought to PAWS by the City. Adoptions shall be made in as timely a manner as possible and an animal’s time in shelter shall be kept to a minimum. Persons adopting animals brought to PAWS and otherwise subject to the provisions of this Agreement will be solely responsible for paying all reasonable fees and costs charged by PAWS for its care and sheltering of the animal, in addition to applicable licensing fees, microchipping charges or other fees that PAWS, in its discretion, may charge. 1.9 PAWS reserves the right to refuse all animals other than dogs or cats, where, in PAWS’ opinion, it does not have the facilities appropriate or available to accommodate the needs of such animal. PAWS further reserves the right to refuse any animal if the animal shelter is at its maximum capacity. The Shelter Manager shall have the authority to make such determinations. 1.10 The Shelter Manager can decline an owned animal that needs to be placed on “bite quarantine” if the City’s Animal Control Officer approves that the animal can remain at the owner’s house or be housed at another boarding facility or veterinary clinic at the owner’s sole expense.   Item 2.6       Packet pg. 67/72 2026 Animal Kenneling Services Agreement, Page 10 10 2. Undertakings of the City. 2.1 In consideration of the services performed, the City shall pay to PAWS the sum of Two Hundred Forty Eight Dollars ($248) per animal, which shall include costs of medical care and spay/neuter services as set forth in paragraph 1.1 above. This amount shall be adjusted in 2027 and 2028 by an amount equivalent to the June Seattle-Tacoma-Bellevue CPI-U for the preceding year not to exceed 4% (the sum shall be rounded up to the nearest dollar); PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the renewal of the Agreement is subject to an appropriation of funds by the Edmonds City Council for future annual terms. If the City Council fails to appropriate funds for kenneling services, this Agreement shall expire at the end of the last term for which an appropriation has been made. 2.2 PAWS may also charge the City a per day fee of Twenty-Five Dollars ($25.00) per animal for animals held, at the City’s written request, beyond the time periods specified in Section 1.6 of this Exhibit A. In the event of legal proceedings or court order, the City will provide PAWS with prompt written notice of the same and direct that the animal shall be held until further notice. 2.3 The City and PAWS may collaborate to promote responsible guardianship and attempt to reduce future sheltering and animal control costs. The City may continue to support the community’s movement to a safer and more humane environment by participating with PAWS as follows: a) The City will continue to ensure that information on lost/found pets and licensing information is presented on the City website including appropriate links to PAWS and animal control information. b) The City may work with PAWS to be visible in the community through appropriate and available city events and educational information.   Item 2.6       Packet pg. 68/72 City Council Agenda Item 2.7 January 6, 2026 - Council Committee A TITLE:Limited Staff Services Agreement – Clinical Oversight for Social Worker DEPARTMENT:Police Services PRESENTER:Chief Dawkins NEEDED FROM COUNCIL:Action RECOMMENDATION:Staff is requesting that the council committee approve this agreement for the consent agenda on 1/13, so the Mayor can sign it.
