Title
AN ORDINANCE authorizing the use of an interlocal agreement template for city entities seeking to enter into an agreement for jail services with King County.
Body
BE IT ORDAINED BY THE COUNCIL OF KING COUNTY:
SECTION 1. Findings:
A. In 2002, King County entered into an interlocal agreement for jail services with most cities in the county ("the 2002 agreement").
B. In 2010, King County and twenty-four cities ("the extension cities") signed an amendment to the 2002 agreement that improved cost recovery for the county and extended the term of the 2002 agreement to 2016 ("the 2016 agreement").

Its use with extension cities was authorized by the council in Ordinance 17239 on December 16, 2011, signed by the Executive on December 16, 2011. On December 16, 2013, the council, in Ordinance 17718, ratified the execution of the 2020 agreement with the cities of Burien, Enumclaw and Federal Way.
