2021/03/10 Council Agenda Packet

EXHIBIT B FUNDING REQUIREMENTS AGENCY Financial System Report: AGENCY agrees to provide STATE PARKS with a report from the AGENCY'S financial system that demonstrates that vessel registration fees (VRFs) are deposited in a dedicated account and showing the deposit of state vessel registration funds received from the Office of State Treasurer See Exhibit E for an example. This report may not be an Excel spreadsheet, and it must be submitted with the Vessel Registration Fee Expenditure Report. VRF Fund Balance Report: AGENCY agrees to provide STATE PARKS a report from the AGENCY financial system showing the fund balance of the dedicated VRF account. See Exhibit E for an example. VRF fund balance on this system -generated report should match the bottom line on the VRF report ("Total Remaining Balance of State VRF funds for Fiscal Year"). Provide Local Spending: AGENCY agrees to contribute local funds to provide financial support to its marine law enforcement program to augment the funding provided through VRFs. Limitation on Use of Funds: AGENCY agrees to use VRFs solely for recreational boating safety purposes, which include all activities or expenditures identified in the document "Allowable Costs and Expenditures for State Vessel Registration Fees and Federal Assistance Grants," as now existing or as may be updated in the future. This document can be found on the MLE Forms Website at: http://mle.parks.wa.gov/. AGENCY may charge actual, direct administrative costs to the VRF account. An example would be actual staff hours spent to fill out forms, or to maintain the dedicated account. AGENCY agrees not to charge administrative fees based on an estimated percentage of a staff person's time. Local Ordinances, STATE PARKS notification: AGENCY agrees that if it adopts a local ordinance governing recreational boating, the ordinances will be at least as restrictive as, but may be more restrictive than, Washington State boating laws and regulations.
