As authorized by Chapter 35.87A RCW,
there is hereby established an Edmonds down-
town business improvement district
("EDBID") within the following boundaries as
shown on the map attached to the ordinance
codified in this chapter as "Attachment A"
(when a street or alley is named, the area
boundary is the centerline of the right-of-way
including vacated portions unless otherwise
specified in the description). The EDBID
includes the parcels with the tax ID numbers
set forth in Attachment B to the ordinance cod-
ified in this chapter, which is incorporated
herein as if set forth in full (for additional
detail, please see the attached map). In case of
a conflict between the list of parcels (Attach-
ment B) and the map (Attachment A), the map
shall control. [Ord. 3909 § 1, 2013].
3.75.020 Levy of assessments.
To finance the programs authorized in ECC
3.75.030, the owners and operators of busi-
nesses (collectively, "members") in the
3.75.030
EDBID described in ECC 3.75.010 shall pay
and be subject to a special assessment in the
amount listed in Table 1 below. The assess-
ment shall be measured by the type and square
footage of the business, subject to calculations
and limitations in ECC 3.75.040. Residential
properties and the residential component of
mixed-use properties shall not be subject to the
special assessments. Commercial properties,
or the portions thereof, that are vacant (do not
contain a business) shall not be assessed. [Ord.
3909 § 1, 2013].
3.75.030 Programs.
Assessment revenues may be used for any
combination of the following component pro-
grams, but not for any other purpose:
A. Marketing and Hospitality.
1. Maps/brochures/kiosks/directories.
2. Web site.
3. Social media.
4. Marketing/advertising campaigns.

F. Organization.
1. Contract staff and professional ser-
vices.
2. Administration costs. [Ord. 3909 § 1,
2013].
3.75.040 Assessment methodology.
The special assessment amount shall be
based on the type of business multiplied by the
square footage of a business. There shall be
two business classifications for the purposes of
calculating the assessment: "open door" busi-
nesses (e.g., restaurants, retailers, banks, etc.);
and "by appointment" businesses (e.g., hair
salons, doctors, lawyers, nail salons, insurance
providers, counselors, financial advisors, etc.).
Open door establishments are assessed at a
higher rate than by appointment businesses
due to the relatively higher benefit that open
door businesses are expected to receive from
the programs. Table 1 shows the annual assess-
ment for both classifications of businesses
based on their square footage within the
EDBID.

The initial assessment calculation shall be
based on the city of Edmonds' business license
records for year 2012. Governmental entities,
public utilities, nonprofits operating under
Internal Revenue Code Section 501(c)(3) shall
not be assessed. [Ord. 3909 § 1, 2013].
(Revised 6/14) 3-50
3.75.050 Rate changes.
Changes in the assessment rate shall only be
made by ordinance and as authorized by state
law. [Ord. 3909 § 1, 2013].
3.75.060 Deposit of revenues.
The city of Edmonds will create a business
improvement district fund within the city of
Edmonds budget; a separate subaccount desig-
nated as the Edmonds downtown business
improvement district account (called "the
account"). The following monies shall be
deposited in the account:
A. All revenues from assessments levied
under this chapter;
B. Gifts, grants and donations;
C. Interest and all other income from the
investment of account deposits;
D. Reimbursements due to the account;
E. Delinquency charges from delinquent
accounts; and
F. Transfers from other city funds; pro-
vided, that liabilities of the EDBID shall not be
an obligation of the general fund or any other
special fund of the city. [Ord. 3929 § 1 (Att.
A), 2013; Ord. 3909 § 1, 2013].
3.75.070 Collection schedule.
Assessments shall be paid and collected on
a quarterly basis; provided, that members may
opt to pay the full yearly assessment at the time
of the billing for the first quarter. [Ord. 3929
§ 1 (Att. A), 2013; Ord. 3909 § 1, 2013].
3.75.075 Exemption for new businesses.
Businesses established after the effective
date of April 22, 2014, and located within the
Edmonds downtown business improvement
district shall be exempt from special assess-
ments imposed pursuant to this chapter for a
period of one year from the date a business
license is issued by the city of Edmonds. [Ord.
3965 § 1, 2014].
Edmonds City Code
3.75.080 Delinquent payments.
If the assessment is not paid within 60 days
after its due date, a delinquency charge shall be
added and calculated at an interest rate of 12
percent per annum of the due amount. The
finance director is authorized to use a city of
Edmonds approved collection agency to col-
lect any unpaid assessments. Use of a collec-
tion agency will result in a business paying the
agency's fee on top of the amount of the BID
assessment plus delinquency charges. [Ord.
3929 § 1 (Att. A), 2013; Ord. 3909 § 1, 2013].

10.80.010 Purpose.
It is the policy of the city of Edmonds to
base the compensation of the city's elected
officials on realistic standards so that elected
officials of the city may be compensated
according to the duties of their offices, and so
that citizens of the highest quality may be
attracted in public service. To effectuate this
policy, the Edmonds' citizens' commission on
the compensation of elected officials ("com-
pensation commission") is hereby created con-
sisting of seven members with duties and
responsibilities as set forth below. [Ord. 3967
§ 1, 2014; Ord. 3508 § 1, 2004].
10.80.020 Duties.
The compensation commission shall study
the relationship of compensation for each
respective position. Except as provided other-
wise below, the compensation commission
shall be solely responsible for its own organi-
zation, operation, and action and shall enjoy
the fullest cooperation of all elected officials,
departments and agencies of the city of
Edmonds. For the purposes of this chapter, the
term "compensation" shall include salary,
10.80.040
wages, health insurance, allowances, benefits,
and other forms of remuneration commonly
received in return for services. [Ord. 3967 § 2,
2014; Ord. 3508 § 1, 2004].
10.80.030 Eligibility.
The compensation commission shall consist
of seven members, all of whom must be at least
21 years of age, registered to vote, and main-
tain personal residence within the boundaries
of the city of Edmonds. No city of Edmonds
officer, official or employee, nor any immedi-
ate family member of such officer, official or
employee, shall be eligible for membership on
the compensation commission. As used in this
section, the phrase "immediate family" means
parents, spouse, siblings, children, or depen-
dent relative of the official or employee,
whether or not they are living in the same
household. [Ord. 3967 § 3, 2014; Ord. 3508
§ 1, 2004].
10.80.040 Appointment.
All members of the compensation commis-
sion shall be appointed by the mayor subject to
city council confirmation. The members of the
compensation commission shall serve four-
year terms originally commencing on October
1, 1999, except that the first seven members
shall be appointed for different terms as fol-
lows: (A) one member appointed by the city
council for a period of four years; (B) one
member appointed by the city council for a
period of two years; (C) two of the members
selected by those three members to serve for
periods of four years; and (D) two of the mem-
bers elected by those three members to serve
for periods of two years. No person may serve
more than two consecutive terms. Members of
the compensation commission may be
removed by the mayor, with the approval of
the council, only for cause of incapacity,
incompetence, neglect of duty, malfeasance in
office, or for a disqualifying change of eligibil-
ity. The unexcused absence of any member of
the commission from two consecutive meet -
10 -27 (Revised 6/14)
10.80.050
ings of the commission shall constitute relin-
quishment of that person's membership on the
commission. Such relinquishment creates a
vacancy in that person's position on the com-
mission. Upon a vacancy in any position on the
commission, a successor shall be selected and
appointed to fill the unexpired term. Notwith-
standing the appointment provisions herein,
commissioners that were appointed under a
previous process shall be allowed to complete
their terms. [Ord. 3967 § 4, 2014; Ord. 3508
§ 1, 2004].
10.80.050 Operation.
The members of the compensation commis-
sion shall elect a chair from among their num-
ber. Except as provided below, the election of
the chair and other decisions of the compensa-
tion commission shall require an affirmative
vote of a simple majority of the commission.
The commission shall prepare and approve a
compensation schedule by an affirmative vote
of not less than a simple majority of the com-
mission plus one member. Members of the
commission shall receive no compensation for
their services. If the commission is not able to
approve the compensation schedule by an
affirmative vote of a simple majority of the
commission plus one member, then the previ-
ous schedule, or the substantial equivalent
thereof, shall be deemed to remain in effect.
[Ord. 3967 § 5, 2014; Ord. 3508 § 1, 2004].
10.80.060 Compensation schedule.
Once approved, the commission shall file its
compensation schedule for elected officials of
the city with the city clerk no later than the first
Monday in August of each even -numbered
year. The signature of the chair of the commis-
sion shall be affixed to each schedule submit-
ted to the city clerk. The chair shall certify that
the schedule has been adopted in accordance
with the provisions of this chapter and with the
rules, if any, of the commission. The clerk
shall publish a notice on the city's website that
the compensation schedule has been filed.
(Revised 6/14) 10-28
Such schedules shall be incorporated into the
city or town budget without further action of
the city council or salary commission except
that when the city council adopts the budget, it
must do so without amending such schedules.
[Ord. 3967 § 6, 2014; Ord. 3508 § 1, 2004].
10.80.065 Effective date of salary increases
and decreases.
All salary increases established by the com-
mission shall be effective on January 1 st of the
year after the schedule was approved; pro-
vided, however, that any compensation

mission shall only become effective upon
commencement of the subsequent term of the
applicable office. [Ord. 3967 § 7, 2014].

ness of the commission shall be subject to the

ter 42.30 RCW. Prior to the filing of any com-
pensation schedule, the commission shall hold
no fewer than two public hearings thereon
within the four months immediately preceding
the filing of its compensation schedule. [Ord.
3967 § 8, 2014; Ord. 3508 § 8, 2004].
10.80.080 Referendum.
Any ordinance enacting change in compen-
sation shall be subject to referendum petition
by the citizens in accordance with city ordi-
nance. Any ordinance which enacts a compen-
sation schedule shall be subject to Article
XXX, Section 1 of the Washington State Con-
stitution regarding increases in elected offi-
cials' compensation during their term of
office. [Ord. 3967 § 9, 2014; Ord. 3508 § 1,
2004] .
10.80.090 Reimbursement unaffected.

necessary expenses incurred in the perfor-
mance of the duties of their office, or the coun-

allowance. Procedure for approval of claims
for expenses shall be as provided by ordinance,
consistent with state law. [Ord. 3967 § 10,
2014; Ord. 3508 § 1, 2004].
10.80.100 Waiver of compensation by city
councilmembers and mayor.
A. City councilmembers and the mayor
may voluntarily waive and elect not to be paid
all or any portion of the compensation during
his or her term of office. Notice of waiver must

notary public.
B. Compensation waived under the notice
of waiver is irrevocably donated to the city of
Edmonds. Officials may not seek back pay to
recover compensation waived under the notice
of waiver.
C. It shall be presumed that compensation
or portions of compensation that are declined
or waived pursuant to this section shall be
unrestricted in its use by the city; provided,
that this presumption may be rebutted by the
councilmember or the mayor directing in writ-
ing that his or her waived compensation be uti-
lized for a specific city purpose.
D. The waiver shall be effective for all
compensation earned following the effective
date and continue in effect until withdrawn by
a writing signed by the individual or the indi-
vidual's spouse delivered to the city treasurer.
