Property Tax Exemptions for Seniors, Persons with Disabilities, and Disabled Veterans
Washington State law provides two tax benefit programs for senior citizens and people with disabilities: property tax exemptions (including surface water utility fees) and property tax deferrals. Seniors, persons with disabilities, and disabled veterans may qualify for a reduction in property taxes if they meet the eligibility requirements of age 61 or older or disability status with an income below the limit threshold of $58,423.

Comprehensive Plan Updates
The Planning Commission has been very busy over the last several months reviewing several draft elements prepared by Community Development staff for the periodic update of the City’s Comprehensive Plan. Every county and city in the state, whether fully or partially planning under the Growth Management Act (GMA) is required to conduct a periodic update of its comprehensive plan once every 10 years. Updates to comprehensive plans are due for those jurisdictions in Puget Sound region counties (King, Kitsap, Pierce, and Snohomish) by December 31, 2024. This includes Kenmore! The latest news on Kenmore’s Comp Plan update:
* Planning Commission presented their recommendations of approval for the Climate Action Element, Transportation Element, Public Services Element, and Utilities Element of the Comprehensive Plan (Comp Plan) in September and October.
* All of these elements are anticipated to be adopted by City Council by end of November.
* In 2024, Community Development staff will be preparing drafts of the Downtown Element, Community Design Element, Economic Development Element, and Natural Environment elements.
* Staff will also be updating the Housing and Land Use elements to reflect recently adopted State legislation regarding accessory dwelling units (ADUs) [ https://www.kenmorewa.gov/government/departments/community-development/planning-initiatives/accessory-dwelling-units ] and middle housing [ https://www.kenmorewa.gov/government/departments/community-development/planning-initiatives/missing-middle-housing ].
For more information, please see the City’s Comprehensive Plan webpage [ https://www.kenmorewa.gov/government/departments/community-development/comprehensive-plan-update ], or contact Community Development staff at 425.398.8900.

Seeking Volunteers for the Financial Sustainability Plan Task Force
The City of Kenmore is currently seeking volunteers to serve on a Financial Sustainability Plan (FSP) Task Force from November 2023 to April 2024.
Due to state-imposed 1% limit on property tax growth, high inflation, relatively flat growth in other revenues, unfunded state and federal mandates, and other factors, the City’s operating revenues are not keeping pace with the cost of doing business. As a result, the City of Kenmore faces an upcoming structural deficit in its operating budget (General Fund and Street Fund) and will need to revise the Financial Sustainability Plan [ https://www.kenmorewa.gov/home/showpublisheddocument/1664/637550766311170000 ] that was adopted in 2020.
The seven-member FSP Task Force will review the City’s financial forecasts and budgets and evaluate priorities, services, and revenues to make recommendations to the City Manager on how to resolve the structural deficit. All Kenmore residents, business owners, or employees (over the age of 16) may apply. Learn more and apply by October 30 at www.kenmorewa.gov/fsp.

Climate Action Plan: Council Will Review Program Recommendations October 23
Climate Action Plan (CAP [ https://www.kenmorewa.gov/government/departments/public-works/environmental-services/climate-action-plan ]) staff have been busy over the last year engaging with the Kenmore community to learn more about priorities for CAP implementation in Kenmore. Now, all the feedback that was received has been used to form a path forward for climate action, and recommendations for future CAP initiatives and programming will be reviewed by the City Council at the October 23 [ https://www.kenmorewa.gov/Home/Components/Calendar/Event/1976/102 ] meeting. The recommended programs will rely heavily on grants and leveraging existing partnerships. Ongoing CAP programs that will require additional funding will be reviewed as part of the Financial Sustainability Plan.

Thank You to Our Kenmore Water Stewards!
The City of Kenmore is proud to be one of 15 cities in Puget Sound to participate in the Adopt a Storm Drain program. Residents, businesses, and organizations can sign up to adopt a storm drain of their choosing and help keep it free of leaves and debris. By doing so you will be helping to prevent flooding caused by blocked drains and pollution from reaching our streams and lakes.
"A huge thank you to all our current Kenmore Water Stewards!" If you’re interested in learning more or seeing if there is a storm drain you can adopt, visit wa.adopt-a-drain.org/ [ https://wa.adopt-a-drain.org/ ]

Automated Photo Enforcement [ https://www.kenmorewa.gov/government/departments/public-works/engineering/automated-photo-enforcement ]
Photo Enforcement Numbers for Fall Semester ‘23
September was the first month with both Kenmore Automated Photo Enforcement (KAPE) school zone locations fully active for school-zone speeding violations. Over the 15 active days, the Arrowhead Elementary school zone averaged ~50 violations per day, and the Kenmore Elementary school zone averaged ~25 violations per day – both locations had roughly half the frequency of violations seen during the warning period last school year. These violations represent only 3% of all drivers who travel through these school zones each day, which means 97% of drivers are traveling at or close to the school zone speed limit while the school zones are in effect.
Before the KAPE program began, nearly 100% of drivers were exceeding the school zone speed limit by 10 mph or more. The KAPE program is fair, transparent, equitable, and forgiving – the enormous reduction in the rate of violations is a strong indication that the program is successful at giving drivers every chance to self-correct before receiving a ticket. The revenue from the KAPE program is dedicated to pavement preservation and traffic safety. The reduced travel speeds in school zones bring a tremendous safety benefit to our school commuters and the proceeds from the violations that do occur will help bring safer streets to the rest of Kenmore.
