ORIGINATOR:  Lori Ericsson

 

EXECUTIVE RECOMMENDATION:  Approved by Ken Klein 8/11/25

 

PURPOSE: Approval of the Interlocal Agreement between Snohomish County and the Tulalip tribes of Washington relating to transfer of Totem Beach Road located on the Tulalip Indian Reservation.

 

BACKGROUND: Snohomish County Public Works currently maintains Totem Beach Road as part of the County Road network. In 1988 the US Department of the Interior granted a right-of-way easement for a public road for the purposes of bridge replacement over Battle Creek to the Bureau of Indian Affairs which provides for “right privilege, permit and easement to construction and maintain easement for public road forever.” The Tribes wish to improve and maintain Totem Beach Road as a public road as part of the Tulalip Tribes Tribal Transportation Program. Snohomish County and the Tulalip Tribes have negotiated an ILA under RCW 39.33.  This ILA will allow the transfer of real property rights for Totem Beach Road from the County to the Tribes.   Under this ILA the County would be relieved of future costs associated with maintaining Totem Beach Road which is in the best interest of the public. Interlocal Cooperation Act, chapter 39.34 RCW authorizes the County to enter into such an agreement.
