Officer to execute all documents necessary to
transfer title of the property to the City of Des
Moines and amend the Comprehensive Scheme to
reflect that the property is surplus to the Airport's
needs and is hereby deleted from Unit No. 18. 

WHEREAS, the voters of King County, pursuant to the provisions of enabling
legislation adopted by the Legislature of the State of Washington, Chapter 92, Laws of
1911, RCW 53.04.010, authorized and approved at a special election held in King County
on the 5th day of September 1911, the formation of a Port District coextensive with King
County to be known as the Port of Seattle; and 
WHEREAS, the Port of Seattle was thereupon established as a port district and
has since been and now is a duly authorized and acting port district of the State of
Washington and operator of Seattle-Tacoma International Airport ("Airport"); and 
WHEREAS, the Port of Seattle's Comprehensive Scheme was established in
1912 through Resolution No. 17 of the Port Commission, which established seven units
defined according to their geographic region; and 
WHEREAS, in 1946, the Comprehensive Scheme was amended significantly to
include the Airport, designated as Unit No. 18; and 
WHEREAS, over the years, property acquisitions and sales have caused the need
to amend the Comprehensive Scheme from time to time; and 

1

WHEREAS, the Port owns the real property described on attached Exhibit A (the
"Property"); and 
WHEREAS, the Port-owned Property includes 2.84 acres of land, more or less,
that the City of Des Moines needs for improvements to S. 216th Street and 24th Avenue
S., the southern and eastern boundaries of the Des Moines Creek Business Park
("DMCBP") site; and 
WHEREAS, from 1989 to 1993, the Port acquired approximately 77 acres of
residential lots in the City of Des Moines as part of the Airport's Federal Aviation
Administration (FAA)-approved noise mitigation program (together these lots are now
referred to as the DMCBP site); and 
WHEREAS, the conveyance to the City of Des Moines will allow the improvement
of those roadways which are required to fully develop the DMCBP site and will improve
the City's ability to secure federal and state funding for the planned improvements; and 
WHEREAS, conveyance of the Property to the City of Des Moines will be
pursuant to appraisal and the Second Addendum to the First Development Agreement
Regarding Compensation for Dedicated and Deeded Rights-of-Way and Purchase of
Right-of-Way Frontage (the "Second Addendum") between the City and the Port
regarding the DMCBP site; and 
WHEREAS, the price paid by the City of Des Moines will offset the cost of the
Port's acquisition of 11.43 acres of City-of-Des Moines-owned streets surrounding the
DMCBP site which the Des Moines City Council voted to vacate and surplus at its
September 30, 2010 meeting; and 


2

WHEREAS, the Property was acquired with Federal Aviation Administration
noise funds, but recent guidance from the FAA eliminates the requirement that property
acquired with noise funds require FAA approval prior to sale; and 
WHEREAS, Chapter 39.33 of the Revised Code of Washington provides that the
Port may "sell, transfer, exchange, lease or otherwise dispose of any property  to the
state of any municipality of any political subdivision thereof  on such terms and
conditions as may be mutually agreed upon "; and 
WHEREAS, the maps and other data regarding the property proposed for
conveyance to the City of Des Moines are on file at the Port offices; and 
WHEREAS, the Port of Seattle Commission has heard from all persons desiring
to speak at said public hearing with regard to the proposed property transfer; and 
WHEREAS, the members of the Port of Seattle Commission have discussed and
considered the proposed property transfer in light of all comments by members of the
public at the public hearing; and 

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Port Commission of the Port of
Seattle that:

longer needed for Port purposes and is declared surplus to Port needs.
