PREAMBLE:
Every year, King County faces threats from flooding, the impacts of which are far-reaching and pose significant threats to public health and safety and economic activities throughout the county.
The one hundred-year floodplain in King County covers more than twenty-five thousand acres or almost forty square miles. County flood protection facilities protect property with an estimated assessed valuation of more than seven billion dollars. The flood control needs in King County are described more extensively in the 2006 King County Flood Hazard Management Plan, adopted by Ordinance 15673 in January 2007.
One of the most fundamental functions of government is to protect citizens and public and private property from the ravages of natural disasters such as flooding.
Flood control needs exist throughout the county, and an integrated and coordinated approach is needed to effectively and efficiently address those needs to ensure that public safety and property are protected and our region's prosperity is sustained.
Pursuant to chapter 86.15 RCW, the metropolitan King County council created the countywide King County Flood Control Zone District in April 2007 to provide a comprehensive approach to flood protection.
Pursuant to chapter 86.15 RCW, the adopted 2006 King County Flood Hazard Management Plan constitutes the initial Comprehensive Plan for the King County Flood Control Zone District.
As part of the ordinance creating the King County Flood Control Zone District, an advisory committee was created in April 2007 to provide recommendations on the district's work plan and budget.
The King County Flood Control Zone District advisory committee met between May and July 2007 and recommended the district's proposed work plan and a property tax levy of ten cents per thousand dollars of assessed valuation to implement the work plan and provide enhanced flood protection in King County.
The advisory committee's recommendations will be reviewed by the King County Flood Control Zone District board of supervisors as part of the 2008 King County budget adoption process.
Separate King County Flood Control Zone District operating and capital funds are hereby created to provide for the receipt of revenues and the disbursement of expenditures for the provision of flood hazard reduction services as outlined in chapter 86.15 RCW. The funds shall be first tier funds as described in this chapter. The department of natural resources and parks shall be the fund manager.
