SUBJECT:  First Reading and Public Hearing of Resolution No. 3799 to surplus Tract B in the 
Des Moines Creek Business Park 
ACTION REQUESTED 
Request First Reading and Public Hearing of Resolution No. 3799: A Resolution of the Port
Commission of the Port of Seattle declaring surplus and no longer needed for port district
purposes approximately 2.56 acres of Port-owned real property, commonly referred to as Tract
"B," and located in the City of Des Moines, King County; and further authorizing the transfer of
said real property to the City of Des Moines for stormwater facilities in support of improvements
at Des Moines Creek Business Park. 
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY 
This surplus action will allow the Port to transfer ownership and management of a storm water
facility, Tract "B," constructed as part of the 87-acre Des Moines Creek Business Park as
previously agreed to in the 2012 Master Plan Agreement (Development Agreement) between the
Port and the City of Des Moines. The Development Agreement memorialized development and
infrastructure requirements including design criteria, traffic and environmental mitigation, and
dedications of street and stormwater facilities. This is the second of two storm water tract
dedications outlined in the Development Agreement. The first was finalized by Commission
Resolution 3731 (2017) for Tract "A." The dedication of Tract "B" is the final action remaining
under the Development Agreement. 
JUSTIFICATION 
This dedication follows through on a prior-approved dedication in the Development Agreement.
All prerequisites for dedication outlined in the Development Agreement have been executed. 
DETAILS 
The merits of this action were reviewed and decided when the Commission approved the
Development Agreement, the Ground Lease between the Port of Seattle and Des Moines Creek

If the Commission were to reverse these prior actions the Port would be responsible for
ownership and maintenance of a stormwater facility in the City of Des Moines.

Schedule 
Q1 2022 
ALTERNATIVES AND IMPLICATIONS CONSIDERED 
No alternatives since this dedication was already approved in an agreement with the City. 
FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS 
The Port will not receive payment for the property; the dedication was a component of the
Development Agreement of the Des Moines Creek Business Park. The Port is compensated for
the provision of land for stormwater infrastructure by the City's approval of commercial
development rights. 
Future Revenues and Expenses (Total cost of ownership) 
Future revenues are realized in the Des Moines Creek Business Park revenues. No future
expenses will be incurred.
