TUESDAY, JULY 1, 2014 
The agreement saves approximately $371,363 for the Port of Seattle over a three-year
period and creates no additional costs. 
Firefighters will receive a base rate adjustment of 1.5 percent and a cost of living
adjustment in each year of the contract. 
The base wage rate for Battalion Chief will increase while the base wage for entry-level
firefighters and Training Chief decreases. The aim is to equalize the salaries over time.
This also results in contract savings. 
Firefighters' contributions to health careinsurance premiums on dependent care will
increase from the current five percent to 7.5 percent starting this year and ten percent by
the last year of the contract.

Presenter(s): Mr. Larry Ehl and Mr. Reis. 
The Commission received a presentation that included the following relevant information: 
In January 2014, the Port Commission announced the Quality Jobs Initiative for
employees of the Seattle-Tacoma International Airport. Details of the public process and
data collection were reviewed in detail during the June 24 meeting and materials are
currently posted. 
There is a high rate of turnover among entry-level jobs at the Airport due partly to low
pay and lack of advancement opportunity. This is partly a function of inadequate training
available as a result of short tenure. It is not uncommon to have the need to hire 6-8
ramp workers per week. 

Minutes of the afternoon special meeting of July 1, 2014, proposed for approval on April 14, 2015.

TUESDAY, JULY 1, 2014 
A key element of advancing continued safe and secure operation of the Airport is the 
establishment of minimum standards for wages, benefits, and training for workers with
airfield access. 
Predictability for the business community is an important consideration when
establishing minimum employment standards in order to continue to experience growth
in service at the Airport. It is more practical to impose standards of this kind within a
favorable economic climate than during times of economic difficulty. 
Resolution  No.  3694 establishes new standards of training, education and work
experience, and wage and compensation for aeronautical workers. Its policies are
designed to incentivize the provision of benefits to workers, reduce turnover, and ensure
safer and more secure operations. 
By establishing wage compensation and paid leave standards, Resolution No. 3694
seeks to address the multiple elements of a quality job.

PUBLIC HEARING on Resolution No. 3694 
Commissioner Bowman declared the public hearing for Resolution No. 3694 open. 
Public comment was received from the following individuals: 
Joseph Sprague, Senior Vice President for Communications and External Relations, Alaska
Airlines. Mr. Sprague reported that Alaska supports a comprehensive, thoughtful, and factbased
approach to compensation standards. The airline proposes changes to the resolution
to exempt airline employees from the resolution's provisions, to recognize a difference
between employees working in the ramp environment and those working within the terminal,
and to alter the resolution's total compensation provisions. A copy of Mr. Sprague's
comments is, by reference, made a part of these minutes, is marked Exhibit A, and is
available for review in Port offices. 
Matt Haney, employed by the Service Employees International Union (SEIU) Local 6.
Mr. Haney presented a letter from local labor leaders advocating the Port's action on
wages at the Airport be more in keeping with the provisions of the City of SeaTac's
Proposition One. A copy of the letter is, by reference, made a part of these minutes, is
marked Exhibit B, and is available for review in Port offices. 
Stefan Moritz, Director of Strategic Affairs for Unite Here Local 8. Mr. Moritz commented
on the potential use of Resolution No. 3694 as a blueprint for policy related to Airport
concessions workers. However, he commented on several aspects of the resolution that
he considered inadequate, urging a minimum wage of $15/hour. 
Doris Cassan, 3100 South 176th Street, SeaTac, Washington. Ms. Cassan commented
on the poor financial condition of the airline and rental car industries and the high costs
of operating an Airport business. She recommended incentivizing businesses to provide
quality jobs rather than mandating it.

TUESDAY, JULY 1, 2014 
Thomas Sanchez, Port of Seattle firefighter. Mr. Sanchez commended the Commission
for approving the firefighter labor agreement described in agenda item 6d and for
addressing the issue of wages for airfield employees in agenda item 6a. 
Shukri Hashi Ali, employed by Hudson News. Ms. Hashi Ali commented on her work
registering people to vote and advocating for SeaTac's minimum wage proposal,
Proposition One. She criticized Resolution No. 3694 for accomplishing less than the
measures contained in Proposition One and asked that the Port implement the
provisions of Proposition One instead. 
Steve Marquardt, affiliated with United Food and Commercial Workers (UFCW) Local 21.
Mr. Marquardt commented in opposition to gradual implementation of fair labor
standards through incremental execution of new leases. He noted there was no worker
retention standard in Resolution No. 3694. Mr. Marquardt called for adoption of the
measures contained in the City of SeaTac's Proposition One. 
Following conclusion of public comment, the public hearing on Resolution No. 3694 was closed.
The question recurred on the motion by Commissioner Gregoire, seconded by Commissioner
Albro, for first reading of Resolution No. 3694.

The Commission received a presentation that included the following relevant information: 
In support of the Port Commission's Quality Jobs Initiative, the qualities of a job are

Seattle-Tacoma International Airport tenants and other community-based stakeholders
for expanded training and educational opportunities for Airport employees.

In support of this, the Commission's formal directionis needed for the Office of Social
Responsibility (OSR) to create a policy, recommendations, and guidelines in a strategic
framework, with help from a professional consulting service to be brought back for
Commission approval later this year. The  framework will include requests for proposals
and qualifications and expanded opportunities for the Port to actively engage in
workforce development. 
This framework will be created in coordination with the Legal Department to ensure
compliance with the State of Washington's limitations on port districts and any applicable
federal administration guidelines. 
The Office of Social Responsibility is in the process of locating and hiring a consulting
services firm. Hiring is predicted to take place this month. 
A presentation of a strategic plan to the Commission is scheduled for September and will
include requests for proposal necessary for workforce development in 2015 and beyond.

TUESDAY, JULY 1, 2014 
The Commission received a presentation that included the following relevant information: 
The parcel to be declared surplus is located in the southwest corner of Harbor Island. It
was acquired by the Port of Seattle in 1966 as part of a larger aggregation for the Lower
Duwamish Improvement District No. 2. 
The majority of the aggregation was used to construct Terminals 102 and 104. The area
north of the discussed parcel was deeded in 1980 to the City of Seattle as a right-of-way. 
The City later leased the right-of-way to Bluefield Holdings Inc. for habitat restoration. 
The parcel consists of 5,743 square feet of undeveloped land, approximately 70 percent
submerged. The parcel's 1,700 square feet of dry land is surrounded on all sides by the
Duwamish West Waterway or the City's right-of-way. 
The parcel has been appraised at a fair market value of $40,000. 
Best uses for the parcel include water access, storage, or fish and wildlife habitat
restoration. 
The possibility exists to sell the parcel to Bluefield Holdings Inc. at fair market value, with
Bluefield paying the $7,000 appraisal fee, in order to use the site for habitat restoration.
There is no purchase and sale agreement at this time. 
Commissioner Albro expressed concerns over entering into a sale too quickly. He commented that
to advance the Century Agenda objective to increase wildlife habitat, covenants or restrictions
should be integrated into the sale as conditions. 
Without objection, agenda item 6c was laid on the table and Resolution No. 3693 did not achieve
First Reading. 
Agenda item 6d having been decided previously, the Commission advanced to consideration of  
6e.  Authorization for the Chief Executive Officer to (1) execute the Terminal 5 Lease
Termination Agreement with Eagle Marine Services, Ltd.; and (2) execute amendments
consistent with the draft letter of intent in the attached exhibits to the Terminal 18
Crane and Terminal leases with SSA Terminals LLC and Terminal 30 lease with SSA
Terminals (Seattle), LLC due to negotiations associated with the Most Favored Nations
clause in the respective Terminal leases triggered by the Port's Terminal 46 lease
extension with Total Terminals International LLC. [subsequently laid on the table]
