PORT OF SEATTLE MEMORANDUM COMMISSION AGENDA Item No. 6d ACTION ITEM Date of Meeting February 9, 2016 DATE: February 1, 2016 TO: Ted Fick, Chief Executive Officer FROM: Craig Watson, General Counsel SUBJECT: First and Second Reading of Resolution No. 3716 ACTION REQUESTED Request First and Second Reading and Final Passage of Resolution No. 3716: A Resolution of the Port Commission of the Port of Seattle repealing Resolution 3694, as amended, relating to safety and security at Seattle-Tacoma International Airport and the necessary hiring standards, training opportunities, and minimum comensation required to maintain a well-trained workforce at the Airport. SYNOPSIS Resolution No. 3716 is attached for the Commission's consideration and approval. This resolution would repeal previously adopted Resolution No. 3694, as amended. The Supreme Court has ruled that the Airport is subject to SeaTac Ordinance 13-1020, which addressed many similar employment standards as Resolution No. 3694. Therefore, Resolution No. 3694 is no longer necessary and should be repealed. BACKGROUND The Port of Seattle Commission adopted Resolution No. 3694 on July 22, 2014. The purpose of the resolution was to support "safety and security at Seattle-Tacoma International Airport and the necessary hiring standards, training opportunities, and minimum compensation required to maintain a well-trained workforce at the Airport." This policy addresses many similar employment standards as SeaTac Ordinance 13-1020. On August 20, 2015, the Washington State Supreme Court issued its decision in Case No. 89723-9 (an opinion related SeaTac Ordinance 13-1020). On September 9, the Port of Seattle joined in a portion of a motion for reconsideration and to clarify the decision from the Court. On September 22, 2015, the Port of Seattle Commission temporarily suspended Resolution No. 3694, as amended, to avoid confusion for Sea-Tac Airport's tenants and business partners. On November 30, 2015, the Supreme Court denied the motion for reconsideration and clarification. Template revised May 30, 2013.
